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...

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...

Poverty

“What is poverty – the state of being extreme poor ”. Different people have the different poverty. Someone has poverty of wealth. some body has poverty of love, peace,  happiness, health… Everyone has the poverty. Everyone undergo the poverty. Nobody has abundance of everything.   Man was going to temple and saw the beggars sitting at the entrance and explained his child they are poor people and poverty state. He went inside the temple and started praying with the God to provide the health. Child was confused. My experience in the life is that, each one undergoes all type of poverty at different time. When I started my life I had poverty of money, worked for some time and started the business. The moment started experiencing money in hand started feeling the poverty of love after some time got married. Again found poverty of happiness then we had a child and so on. Also my experience is poverty of one can lead to poverty of other. The poverty def...
