The other day I fell into a discussion with a friend about a jewelry theft in Hyderabad. To be precise, we were not talking about the theft but the person who had accomplished it - the thief. He must be a real gem of a planner - I was impressed by the way he planned the theft and also the sharp skill with which he pulled it off with a perfect execution of that plan. But while he was setting up the whole game, he might have not given even a bit of thinking to what he was doing – he was in the becoming of a teacher, a masterpiece who’d end up giving me inspiration and a lesson beyond the worth of his own intellect. He gave me a contemporary example of a brilliant pondering we all ought to make. I have learnt an invaluable lesson yet I dislike the teacher.

Jewelry worth more than 60 million Rupees is probably more than just enough for an average person to spend the rest of his life with a 5-star lifestyle. It comes to a little less than 1.5 million USD. But this crazy buffoon didn’t know what to do with the reward of his extravagant victory as a thief. He couldn’t keep the booty with him even for 72 hours. He blasted himself and ended up cooling his heels behind the bars. He became the cause of an end in himself.
The unusual intelligence quotient of this man is pretty evident in the act he has committed. He can be regarded as among those who have a very great sagacity of human psychology and human nature as he could flummox many people until, and even after, he got his job completed. He believed he could do it and he did it.

When we believe – really, really believe - in ourselves that we can accomplish any task we want to, there is no way that we may end up not winning over it. Belief can do more than just moving mountains. It can turn them over or even burry them into the ground to the same depth of their height. Every great event has happened because people believed that it was possible. Victory is in a committed self-belief.

But this is not what that thief teaches. The notion that self-belief can make us do anything desirable is just a useless piece showing off in this incident. The later part of the game, the one played by the cops alongside, is the bigger story and the one with a brighter moral – “Cleaver dogs don’t go after wagons – they do not know what to do with the wagon after they have it.”

The culprit was jammed within 72 hours of his crime. He was caught with another person who was supposedly buying a part of the jewelry from him, that too not in Hyderabad but in Mumbai. This is not fate; this is the end result of two pretensions – the criminal character of that man, and his inability to contain his victory and its reward (though both in a bad taste).

We may get what we want but what is more important is the way we carry our accomplishment. Our gain from a victory can be a launching pad for more such victories to come, but also it can just turn out to be a disaster and destroyer of our life. The prize of hard work and the belief in our-self is always overwhelming when done on a bigger frame, and is a great acknowledgement of the amazing power man in capable of exhibiting. But when he doesn’t know what to do after he has won, his weakness in   stability becomes obvious. He holds the responsibility to his decision to go ahead with his quest for victory, and also the reward of that victory. But as long as he lays the foundation of his character on concrete moral values and fundamentals, he can be assured of peace to be at his discretion.
