Self Assurance &#8211; A Journey by Prakash Jha

The journey was challenging, yet he did it – the journey of Self Assurance;!!!

As many have said, you need to have clarity of thoughts and a willingness to work towards it. You can achieve. You will achieve.

I am talking about a man who has become an inspiration to many. They say he is a role model for the youngsters and an influencer for many of his fellows and mates.

It is about a man who weighed 95 kilograms, not way back. He struggled with hair loss, stammered while addressing a group of people who carried a sluggish attitude and was highly under-confident. Every time he planned for a routine exercise, it went for a toss. He struggled with his low metabolism. It all made him conscious, and he looked down upon him. Recent Bollywood releases like Bala and Ujda Chaman, motivated me to share his journey with you all.

Right from his childhood, he had a heavy bodyweight. Later on, doctors diagnosed it as a disease, thyroid. It is a common disease in women nowadays. However, it became a real challenge for him as it was right from childhood. Like every other family, his family accepted that he would be heavier. Being a child, living in a family where family paid more attention to exquisite food, fitness was out of his priority.

The journey of Self Assurance by Prakash Jha

His, the then friends, always underrated and overlooked him. His college years happened to be even weird as he had started to lose his hair. Unfortunately, in those days, the social structure was such that everyone you met would emphasize what you lack. He was living with all of it.

Miraculously, there was a time when his life was to change. He also left the struggle behind and accepted the way things took shape. He removed his hair completely, and today he endorses baldness with dignity and confidence. As many have said, the day you accept yourself, you become dangerously beautiful. Now he was free from the social humiliation associated with hair fall. Now it was time for the body weight. It took him a year and a half to cut down extra bulges.

Of course, a journey from 95 to 78 was difficult that too in a medical condition. He never went off carbs, he never compromised on his taste buds as he still has cravings for Bengali and Punjabi food, and he answers those cravings, however, within limits. Today he says that you need to love yourself. You will be motivated towards fitness once you understand that until this body survives, you need to have reasonable control over it.

He owes his confidence today to his fitness and fitness to the spiritual journey. He says that you can change and influence generations with a slight change in outlook. Today, everyone looks upon him as an influencer whereas. There was a time when he had no friends. He is a guide to many, whereas no one heard him earlier.

Accept yourself, love yourself, stay fit and pay gratitude for what you have, is his basic mantra. You can always be a rule-breaker, but be responsible for your actions.” Says Prakash Jha, a professional banker, a loving father, and a generously reincarnated man after the challenging journey of Self Assurance.
