Because life's short and history doesn’t remember those who waited their turn. It remembers the ones who ran into the storm, not knowing if it would kill them or carry them.
Every major shift in human progress was born from someone who chased without a Plan B.
Ashoka chased conquest with blood on his hands. Then he chased dharma with the same intensity. His empire stretched across the subcontinent. But it was his transformation, not his throne, that turned him into a legend. Not because he balanced things. But because he chased both extremes till he found his own truth.
Martin Luther King Jr. didn’t wait for the right political season. He chased justice while the system was still sharpening its knives. He walked into jails, into mobs, into doubt. Every speech, every step, was a chase. A full-bodied, uncompromising pursuit of dignity.
Even in science, the world shifted because of relentless pursuit. Marie Curie chased radioactive elements across decades, through fatigue, through grief, through bureaucracies that didn’t understand her. She didn’t pause to explain herself to people with smaller appetites. She kept moving. The Nobel followed her. Twice.
Because that’s the thing about chasing.
If it works, you win. You reshape the world around you. You break the ceiling. You rewrite the rulebook. People call you visionary.
And if it doesn’t? They lose. They lose access to your fire. They lose the sharpness you brought to their lazy certainty. They lose the mirror you held up. The questions you refused to ignore. The path you were carving by sheer force of motion.
I’ve chased people who weren’t ready for me. Roles I wasn’t picked for. Cities I couldn’t afford. The chase itself taught me more than stillness ever could.
The world belongs to those who dare to run toward what pulls them.
Shivaji chased sovereignty across hills and valleys, dodging empires with vision sharper than armies. Bhagat Singh chased freedom knowing the rope was waiting. Jobs chased intuition over spreadsheets. Each of them too obsessed to ask for permission.
You don’t need validation to chase. You need velocity.
So if something calls to you - an idea, a person, a place, a fight - don’t walk gently. Don’t whisper.
Run. Fast. Loud. Full.
Chase aggressively.
If it works, you win.
If it doesn’t, they lose.
Either way, the world moves.
Chasing your posts aggressively 😁.. Just kidding 😅... I really needed this post 😊... Thanks
