When you talk about Indian history of philosophers, one name which is meant to be always there and does not need any introduction is none other than Narendranath Datta aka Swami Vivekananda. He is one of the great pillars of Indian Philosophy with some great insights. He has filled the world with his knowledge about Vedanta, Practical Spirituality, Yoga and many more. We seriously cannot thank him enough for the contributions he has made for our society.
One of his great sayings for the world to know him in a better way:
Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life – think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.: Swami Vivekananda
Just from this statement you can learn a lot of things. As per my understanding here Swami Vivekananda is saying to dedicate your life to that one big thing or dream that you always had in your mind and give that dream everything you have to make it come true. Not only physically but mentally and spiritually too.
No other distractions and nothing should come in your way. Be so focused that when the world watches you, they think you are mad. But only you know why you are working so hard and what is that you want to achieve. This is the only way you can succeed in your life.
