It’s the survival of the wisest now, not fittest.
The general belief is that Charles Darwin coined the phrase survival of the fittest, but they borrowed it from English philosopher Herbert Spencer, who first talked about survival of the fittest in his Principles of Sociology.
What is the meaning of survival of the fittest, it’s the one who is strong enough to overcome all the dangers, threats and other challenges from the surroundings and this theory got researched and published in 1859 about how life evolved for millions of years.
Being in 2020 today, when we look back, there always has been a lot of pain in the world, Covid 19 has enhanced it even more, so much that sustenance has become difficult for people. We would have thought many a time to change things for ourselves and go beyond to improve for others as well, but in vain.
It’s a known fact that challenges, problems and issues are an integral part of our lives, during such times, we blame helplessness and get blindfolded from the fact that we can become conscious to look deep within ourselves to realise that we can move beyond the limitations of our personality and character to bring upon us, the wisdom to fight and ward off our problems.
Empowering yourself this way is an amazing experience and you need not be gifted, in fact anyone and everyone can turn deep within and commune with self. With regular practice, our empowerment becomes contagious and life becomes delightful.
