Success does
not require a lengthy sermon. In one
word, it is perseverance. When
success embraces you, it itself becomes a great narration.
In the
world when one becomes a celebrity, each of his or her act is seen from a
magnified glass. When I flip through the newspapers, tabloids,
magazines, I feel that a paradigm shift is needed in the journalistic
ethos. Instead of concentrating their
energies for attracting more eyeballs, the scribblers must honestly do their jobs
with novelty. The problem in fact is, only a handful of
them do what is supposed to be done and rest fall into mediocrity.
One
way to find a loyal reader is to write in an engaging tone. The secret lies on the subject you choose. If you write
on people of everyday life, it would attract more loyal readers. I always give
my first preference to read such stories
where the person shows unmatched resolve
in achieving his/her set goals.
Rishipal,
45, an ordinary cook in a police force
in Delhi, India but with an immense passion for fitness. When I sit with him for a chat, his radiant
eyes and raised biceps narrated half the story.
No tricks were involved but only
four years of workout through a
natural process, he contends. It means,
he has not used any supplements, protein powders in the process of
body-building.
His
daily workout includes 3 km run in the morning after which, he has a set of
exercises on sophisticated machines that would tone up his muscles and
different parts of the body.
When
asked, how he got this whole idea, Rishipal says that God plans us to live this
way, where as most of us are not adhering to the fitness regimen. When asked
about the food he eats, Rishipal says that he takes six bananas after one litre
of water in the morning, then starts exercise. His breakfast includes baked
badam, soya and multi-grams. He advises you to have solid breakfast in the
morning. His special diet includes 1 ltr milk with 20 eggs.
Rishipal's secret behind keeping this envious body lies in this dictum : No
artificial sweets at all. If I require
glucose, I take it from natural sources like fruits.
With a
wink of smile, Rishipal wraps up the chat with these concluding remarks : Even if you lure me with money to skip these workouts, I don't !
What
Rishipal says can't be dismissed as it
is a Science of Body !
