With the experiences that I have till date (this experience
counts from the age when I started to feel & understand what people react
& say), I can claim that there are 3 types of people with whom we are
seeking help and support in any particular area;
1. People who have no knowledge in that
area,
2. People who have little knowledge in
that area &
3. People who have in-depth knowledge in
that area.
Out of these three types of people, I am sure that you will
only get help and support from 2 types of people. Guess who are they? I don’t
know what you are guessing but I can claim with my experiences till date that; you can easily get help and support from people that I mentioned in no.1
& no. 3. Yes, I mean to say that you can only get support & help easily from people who have no knowledge and the people who have in-depth knowledge in particular area where you are seeking their help & support. You may ask how? Don’t worry I will explain
my thoughts on it.
People who have no knowledge, usually show their eagerness
to help and support you because they know that they will get chance to learn
from you along with helping you. In Nepali we can say “dubai haat ma laddu”
that means win-win situation. People who have in-depth knowledge, they are
always ready to help & support you because they believe that their
knowledge as well as the horizon of particular thing and/or area will increase once
they share with others. Believe, me this type of people always want to see that
the area they have in-depth knowledge is growing and they are ready to support
& help us, so that we are also contributing to build up the particular
area/field. This is also another win-win situation. Now, let’s discuss about
the people that I mentioned in no.2. Yes, you are right. I want to share my
thoughts about people who have little knowledge in the area where you are in
need of their support and help. There is a saying that “little knowledge is
dangerous” and I can say that always be careful with people who have little
knowledge. This kind of people always claim that they know everything and if
you notice, most of the people belongs to this category have higher ego and
negative attitude. They want to show others that they are helping and
supporting you but in reality they are delaying your task and dragging you
down. With this, they want to prove that you are wrong and they are right, you
don’t have that capacity and they have that.
It’s very easy to work with people that I mentioned in no.1
& no. 3. Also, once you work with those 2 types of people you can achieve
your objectives and show the results without any failure. Everyone prefers this
right? Yes, it’s true, no one wants to be a failure, and even I want to get
success in each and every thing only with one time effort. Do you think, it’s
possible & practical? May be its very rare to have this kind of situation,
right? Yes, I agree with you. I have heard different quotes about failure and
the one I liked most is “failure is not the opposite of success, it’s part
of success”. I believe that, only those person can get success who have
failed in their past. Remember, to fail, you have to seek the help from
those people who have little knowledge. Working with people who have little
knowledge, always challenges you. Once you accept that challenge, you can use
your creativity with what you can also challenge those people. Then with that,
you will strengthen your capacity to perform better in future.
You know what? In this 21st century, it’s very
difficult to find people who fall under category 1 & 3 because with this
rapid technological development, everybody have little knowledge in everything.
Even if they don’t have the knowledge in that particular time, they can have it
once they search that in google.com. Likewise, it’s very difficult to have
people, who have in-depth knowledge because this rapid development is challenging
people with new innovation and new development in the sector almost on daily
basis. That means, we have to work with people who have little knowledge and off-course need to seek help from the same. I am never afraid to be a failure, because I
wanted to be successful and definitely, I prefer to work with people who have
little knowledge.
