“If I can express your thoughts in simple words….. a day may come when people will read them as quotes and sayings” LbnRaj

“I get engrossed in my thoughts often …. I start from analysing my thoughts for endless hours …. I arrive at great heights of my thinking. And at those heights and depths of my thinking I realise my thoughts to be no less compared to Basava, Gandhi, Lenin, Marx and Comte. In those moments I realise that my thoughts and theories are no less in quality and intensity. But then some where I get lost. I fail to connect, I fail to simplify, I fail to condense. Then I erroneously start believing that my thoughts may not be that great. But often my  real me tells me that I am no less. Minutes and hours and days pass by …. and I re-assert my self …. that my thoughts are indeed great …. I realise that the secret lies in telling things in as simple words as possible, the secret lies in believing myself… as I continue to do while stumbling, the secret lies in learning to be as brief as possible. It takes time to evolve my sentences into quotations and sayings. I need to be patient and I need to wait, I need to master the art and science of graduating from simple thoughts to abstract theories and from abstract theories to simple thoughts and sayings and quotes. I trust myself …. It is going to happen sooner or later. And it can happen to you as well….. do try. LbnRaj

When do our thoughts, ideas and opinions become quotes and sayings .....?

To get inspired, to get motivated, to get full of life .... we go in for quotations of great people. Many of us you know have the habit of writing down a good quote in our Diary, or on a sticker on our desktop or mobile.  We find the most appealing quote and feeel happy and write down the same ... and wish to go in the direction of thoughts indicated by the thinker.  The truth is , that quote or saying appeals us which coincides with our own thinking and attitude. We feel happy that even such a great personality, had the same ideas as you have. We confirm our ideas to be true and worthy, when some great personality also holds the same thought, opinion.
This obviously means, we have great ideas, only thing we are not so sure that it is a great idea. May be we dont have the skill to put it in short and effectively. I am sure if we continue to go to the inner depths of our thinking about which we are pretty sure of of a break through .... that is the thought which one would be able to write down as a quote. Later if we find a quote or saying which resembles.... you will much more happier. You will be much more happier if you find a saying, that resembles your own.
What are the qualifications for crystallizing and recording a thought, opinion into a quote ?
1. Continuing quest for knowledge
2. Clarity in thinking
3. Bent of mind towards finding answers from within
4. Relating day today experience to the inner realizations.
5. Patience to record thoughts and opinions
I, you and any one can come out with out sayings and quotes which can read and re-read my any one for unraveling the mystery of human n thinking and its depth.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              “I hate quotations.
