Oprah Winfrey once said, “Passion is energy.”
Indeed, it’s energy. It is our inner flame that keeps our dreams alive and simmering steadily. It is the rush of the fierce energy flowing incessantly, to thrive for achievement, to lead forward, to live fully and touch new horizons of success. It is the feeling that can make the impossible happen. And when we are guided by this zeal and enthusiasm, we enter a space of liberated transformation… Space wherein one is surrounded by robust and positive thoughts and can unleash their true potential effortlessly. It is the state wherein realising the goal becomes an easy victory. Passion and passion alone enables you to reach new highs, where success becomes inevitable.
One such individual who lived his life with grand passion and loved his dream to the edge of madness is Karim Asif (K. Asif). His devotion to his aspiration, his ability to work with absolute focus and the courage to remain rock-steady through adversities are the qualities that made him successful. His journey to realise his dreams is an inspiration to live by. K. Asif is a prominent film director who produced just two movies in his entire career span. His first movie did not create much impression. But his second film immortalised him in the world of cinema. The video, released in 1960, broke all the records of the box office. People stood in line for months to buy tickets for the movie. The downpour of money was so enormous that the box office record retained for 15 years! The movie conferred 8 Film Fare Awards and National Film Award for the best feature film. Fifty-nine years post its release, and folks are still passionate about it! The name of this historical, evergreen, epic movie is ‘Mughale Azam’.
Mughale Azam was not just a movie, but a dream, an ardour for which everything was relinquished. It took fourteen years to produce Mughale Azam. The same goal, the same aspiration, the same desire, was pursued continuously for fourteen years. He led a life, wherein he inspired himself every day to work ferociously. He experienced many trials of patience and perseverance. He faced a series of conflicts, but his mind remained ever ready to work with supreme elegance. He pursued his work with utmost passion, self-confidence and dedication.
Is it possible to ascertain the enthusiasm with which K. Asif chased his dreams? Can we discover and imbibe the same burning desire every second to accomplish our ambition?
Yes, we can! If we can map the functionality of K. Asif’s brain when he was infused with passion, we can learn to do the same with ourselves every moment. This way, we can achieve the unattainable.
This is where Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) plays a pivotal role. It helps us analyse and model cognitive structures. Every thought, emotion or feeling we experience forms a physical structure in our brain. Once we comprehend and map this structure, we can educate our mind to think and perform in the same manner. With the help of NLP, we can train the brain to mould itself and bring positive changes. This distinguishes NLP into one of the most powerful tools as it yields quick result in our behaviour. It is a spot on the process. Thus NLP guided us to understand the brain structure of successful people and put it into a specific format which is simple to imitate. This process is called “Success Modelling” in NLP.
In NLP, we learn from the subjective experiences of the world. It studies every single experience of mind like thoughts, feelings, memories, actions, etc. In this fashion, we find out the cognitive frame of the people who have lived their life with passion, zest and confidence. We edify this model to individuals who can lead a similar successful life.
We will learn more about “Successful Modelling” in the next blog.
* NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming wherein ‘Neuro’ refers to neurology; ‘Linguistic’ refers to language; ‘programming’ refers to the functioning of Neural Language.
* It has been developed by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in 1970s.
