3 lessons I learned from Batman. That will change your life

Batman, a fictional character taught me more on how to live than any 
No fictional person has ever taught me.

He is more than a character in comics.
He changed me. I am sure these lessons will change you.

Here are the lessons that I learnt from him

In every movie, in every comic, there comes a moment where the villain outshines Batman.
Where his plan seems not to work, Gotham resonates with terror and crime.
The time when villains laugh out loud. 

But does Batman feel shaky or frightened? Well, never when he comes up with a new one
That brings hope to the people whose faces had lost smiles.
Brings a sense of "it's not going to work” feeling for the villain”

The lesson is batman doesn't give up when things don't go according to plan
Ir all of our lives, how often does things go according to plan
Maybe you have worked hard for a test, for a promotion, for a job, or for a startup. 
But still failed.
It didn't go according to the fantasy you thought of.
In this moment I used to crumble down and give up, But batman taught me and now very well, to simply not

You just need to change the plan, and things will work out.

Batman doesn't have a superpower. Oops, I got it wrong. Let me restate it

Batman doesn't need a superpower.

Batman is not a guy who can shoot lasers or fly. He is not gifted.
Yet He changed Gotham and gave people hope. Gave me hope. 
Batman shows it's never about having gifts or raw talent; it's how much you want it.

Batman dreamed of Gotham being a peaceful city, a dream that almost feels impossible to others; everyone keeps telling him not to do it, that the city can't be brought from the dark.
Every time he defeats a villain, another comes, a cycle that keeps on repeating.

He sacrifices Bruce Wayne to be Batman, to change Gotham. It doesn't matter what others around him tell to give up, because he is only a human
With flesh and blood. Yet he does it.

Lesson 2: You don't need gifts to change the world; you need grit.
When was the last time you told yourself
"He is better than me."
“He is just gifted; that’s why I did."
“Maybe it's not in me."
I did personally a lot because I thought I wasn't as special as those praised loudly by the people around me. But I learned from my hero that this is the movement; I don't give up.

Just like Batman, I don't need gifts to change; I need grit. And we all have that in us

Batman got his scars; from that, I mean he has got a past filled with sadness and darkness.
He lost his parents at a very young age. 
A child losing his parents is one of the most nerve-wracking feelings, a feeling that will never disappear from any child; it will stay as a mental scar. 

He had two choices: either get consumed by the pain or let the world experience the same.

Or let pain build him and make him someone who can painlessly protect others from ever feeling this pain. 

We all know what he chose.

I have a scar, and you also have some scars, so what will you choose?.

Lesson 3: Pain is something we avoid but it's the only power we have that could transform us

How we deal with our pain defines who we are. 
Many times I have taken my past scares as a weakness, a reason that i give myself
“Maybe I can't make it."  
But once I started to use it, I took it as reason that "I am worthy enough to do it."
The moment I changed, life felt less chaotic. 

Let that pain, which you have not shown to anyone, build you. It's what Batman did.
And 

So you can.

I escaped the instagram content cage and it's not how you think

I have been using instagram for at least 4 years of my life; it started as a great way to connect with people. Then at some point it wasn't; it became a content machine. I started going on that app just to consume content and not for chatting with friends. But it gets worse. I started comparing my lazy ass with others' stories. Stories are basically a great way on Instagram to feel bad about yourself. It's been a negative spiral for me, a never-ending cage of consumption. But I wouldn't be typing this if I hadn't escaped, so what really happened is that I did.

Answer: I became bored of it. I began to ask myself, are these people the same as me? They got 24 h, and i also got them. While they are experiencing the world, I am in this cage; no one was controlling me; i could simply go out of this cage and experience the world. A lot I thought about what else there is to do in real life; I began to feel bored of Instagram. Now all the time I went there, and I started to go on learning a new skill and leveling myself, and honestly this is more fun than instagram could ever be. A lot don't even realise it; I'm glad i did get out of this.

with all due respect, Instagram is a great place for creating a social presence. I don't disagree with that. It's my personal experience, and you may have different thoughts on it, but all I can say is our time is limited; invest it properly in yourself. that was mine. How does your journey look, escaping the cage?
