Take the Right Action

Aaaand action! That's what defines our lives too. Every day we make countless decisions and act according to it, which in turn decides how our day is gonna turn out. And our days decide how our life is ultimately gonna look like!

Now suppose you are in a situation and of course you would wanna take the right action, right, so how do you do it?

You may have choices of whether to act or not to act. To act in one particular way or in some other way. So how exactly one should act, or should he even act in the first place?

Ask yourself, what's the basis of the actions you intend to take? Do you even have the right knowledge and understanding of that particular situation?

That should be the basis of the step you are gonna take.

You can't possibly act on something you have no idea about, can you? (ya! I know what your smart mouth is gonna reply with, but hey I am talking about the RIGHT kind of action!)

Here, take an example, let's say I am thirsty and wanna drink water and I ask you to hand me a "Tottle" (instead of a "bottle").

So, would you be able to give it to me? Of course not! (as stupid it may seem, try to see where I am going with it.)

Why? Because you have no knowledge or memory of how a "tottle" can quench someone's thirst, in fact, you don't even have the faintest idea of what a tottle is in the first place. You know what a bottle is but you have no clue regarding what a tottle is.

SO, it's quite evident that we can't possibly act outside our knowledge and the memory stored in us. Savvy?

Unless we don't understand a particular situation, we can't take the RIGHT ACTION on it.

(Well, technically you can, but I don't think I need to discuss the consequences of those kinds of actions )

Or I should say, we shouldn't act on any situation unless we know what we are doing. If you don't know what a tottle is, it's better to ask him what he means by this, instead of going all in and handing him a can of COKE, and make a complete fool of yourself! (I mean what were you thinking. This is what we do most of the time though.)

All right so you must be asking then what to do; in order to get our actions straight in any situation, you go in.

Simple; whatever field you are acting in, be it your profession, your relationships, your life, or your health; you gotta start collecting the correct information, which is based on facts and figures instead of some mere speculations, suppositions, accusations, imaginations, illusions or beliefs.

I know you must be thinking that it is common sense, but hey, common sense doesn't necessarily mean that it is common practice.

Practical knowledge, obviously super cedes theoretical knowledge. ALWAYS!

The practical reality is something that has been proven time and time again and can't be shaken by any power in this world.

Water is wet, this is a reality; a proven fact. No scientific knowledge can challenge it. (at least for now)

Whenever we are aligned with reality, walk along with reality, seeing reality as it is; then there's no problem that can overwhelm you.

Now it's easy to apply it in mechanical things. If you wanna operate a machine you need some prior knowledge about the same.

Take driving, if you wanna learn how to drive, you will have to learn about the car's process and operations, and voila you just took the first right action to learn to drive.

You don't follow the process; you are likely to encounter an accident.

So, there's a set pattern to drive cars, where your beliefs about it aren't gonna be helpful. If you live in the US, you have to drive on the right-hand side.

Making a stupid belief like, "oh no no I will drive at the left side because I feel good about it" will only attract accidents and unnecessary pain.
