When I read this story, I first laughed out loud. I too had experienced dogs chasing the car I was sitting in. I could clearly visualize the scenario described above. Then, the wisdom of the farmers statement struck me.
Life School Message
How to handle difference of opinion?
Studies show people get more pleasure from talking about their beliefs than they get from good food or more money. Isn’t that an interesting thought !!!
Removing things from the bag…
Why don’t you do that right now? Open your bags you are carrying and remove ONE THING that isn’t needed anymore.
How heavy is the load I am carrying?
The wind blows regardless of our preference. However, we get to decide what we do with that wind. Similarly, we get to decide how we will respond to the difficulties in our life. We get to set our own sail.
‘Go on. Create a LEGEND’
If you believe, you have a challenging life, first of all, pat yourself on your back. Say congrats to yourself. Now, go ahead and choose. Choose what will unleash the sleeping giant of greatness inside you.
Come on, let’s start talking again.
We, as a society, really have no idea how suffocated people are in their emotions. Most people have nobody to express themselves entirely to. Everyone is holding back their vulnerabilities to maintain the social image of a confident and happy person.
When am I a Failure?
Some people turn every experience, favorable or unfavorable, into milestones of success. They live and die as successful people.
What do you play? Offence or Defence?
Look at the person looking at you and say, “I have had enough of playing silly losing games with opportunities. I have had enough of settling for crumbs. I have had enough of standing by sidelines, watching people less talented less brighter than me, walk away with glories. It’s time to wake up and take massive action.”
Help People Rise
We see the world challenging us to work hard, to think bigger, and to make greater difference. We see it as an opportunity for us to become better and to *help people rise*.
The year of your GREATNESS !
Life’s role is to keep you on your toes and to nudge you far outside your comfort zone, to see how much pain you can handle, to tease and test how many setbacks you can tolerate, and how much heart, grit and character you truly have.
