The best lessons are learned from the people around us



"The best lessons in life are not learned from the books rather learned from studying fellow human being around us". We have learnt the discipline by watching the watch man who dresses and stands in the early morning even if it is raining or cold weather. Many times we have learned punctuality from the office boy who reaches the office every day before everybody comes and clean the office. Honesty and loyalty learned from the fellow works below us. We get inspired by seeing the results achieved by our junior executives. The person next to me on the thread mill motivates to run for five more minutes. All of us are livelier at home because of our kids and children. I am consciously practicing the integrity in my life just because of my son. I have learned silence and calmness from the talkative and person always argue for anything. I have learned patience from the impatience person around me.

The best lessons are learned from the people around us, not from the academic education, not form the books, not from the internet. The books may carry the knowledge, but not wisdom, not the experience.  The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes. This reminds a quote “ The stopped watch also right for twice a day”.

Today's maturity is different form yesterday's

Arivu  ಅರಿವು … The Maturity at which we deal today is different from the maturity with which we dealt same on yesterday. I was discussing with a good friend of mine for his decision of postponing his marriage even after late 30’s.  He questioned me, what makes difference if it is too late marriage? Suddenly did not have answer to justify. But I believe, the intimacy at innocence age has different experience and feeling than the intimacy after over maturity. Every day pass by, we add an experience. Every time we meet a person we add an experience and get matured. It is foolish to say, I am meeting today with the same maturity had yesterday. Every experience showered gives a maturity in your life. I always say in my beginning of the speech, the person walked inside this room is not the same person when you go back. It adds a new experience in his life and adds a new wisdom on to the person. And it is true the person  gets next level of maturity when...

7.Finding True happiness in life

Finding True Happiness in Life The saying, "It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy," encapsulates a profound truth about the pursuit of happiness. The very essence of life revolves around the pursuit of happiness, and this pursuit is fueled by hope. While the future is uncertain, we live with the hope that it holds something better for us. Consider the paradox of wealth and happiness. Many individuals amass vast fortunes and acquire material possessions beyond measure, yet they find themselves inexplicably unhappy. On the flip side, there are those who possess considerably less in terms of wealth and material goods, yet they radiate joy and contentment. Think back to a time when you yearned for something—perhaps a new car, a bigger house, or a promotion at work. You likely envisioned the happiness it would bring. But when you finally achieved your desired goal, the happiness you experienced may not have been as enduring or intense as you had imagined. Does this mea...

Yoga and meditation for trustful

The trust is derived from the dependability of another person; the dependability is derived from the reliability. The Reliability means consistently performing according to its set standards. Can we apply this for the human beings? Can we expect the consistence performance of any being?   The performance of any person is based on the mind and emotions. Do the mind and emotion are reliable/predictable to themselves? We expect the person to be trustful. When the mind and emotions are not reliable to himself.  How the person can be reliable to others? Then, can the person become trustful to the others is the big question…? No one can be defined as perfect trustful, but some people are obviously more reliable than others to you in those regards. Based on the individual priorities people define the trust and decide who can be more trust or less trust. There is no perfect trust person available. Try and control your mind and emotions as much as po...
