PHLOGISTON

Phlogiston is a chimerical substance. 17th century chemists believed that Phlogiston encompassed the power of inducing an intrinsic flammability to all the combustible substances. It was thought that after incinerating combustibles the Phlogiston in them is driven out rendering the matter in it's purest element. This residual mass 'Calx' however, now,would be deprived of Phlogiston and hence incapable of bestowing any kind of energetic favor on the living-race.

Phlogiston wasn't a tangible entity. It was a colorless, odorless and tasteless substance, and was inevitably essential for the combustion to occur. Analogous to the Phlogiston are the intangible traits that we all have in us. Once dephlogisticated off of these traits we all are just a hollow shell of a body. Most of the successful (by successful, I do not essentially mean renowned) individuals realize the power of Phlogiston residing in them early on in their lives. It's imperative not only to identify these power-inducing traits in ourselves but also to be able to harness this energy at the right time, for a right event and with an optimum intensity. Unlike Phlogiston in the combustibles, we can own our traits for ever and ever. No one, no circumstance can probably incinerate these traits that we have inherited or induced in ourselves. We could/should therefore, nourish these qualities in us and keep our Phlogiston alive till eternity and help it to thrive beyond the limits of the time and and beyond the boundaries of the space. So, let set your mind on the flight of the big and endless dreams and give it the support of 'the Phlogiston' within.
