#5 : Every Problem has a Solution

 

Every problem has a Solution


 I think we need proper perspective, attitude and right-thinking to reach a solution. How many of us always be on solution mindset, that means we still want to resolve the issue, find solutions.

Usually, people have their default settings as "no". You ask something someone to do, 1st you will receive an answer as No, and then once you tell details, pursue you may be talking towards an agreement  

According to studies done, we have two kinds of mindsets Fixed and growth mindset. In growth mindset we keep learning, we are flexible, we try to fix, we let go, we understand, we go for solutions.

 One anecdote which I wanted to share. There was an old man who died and left 17 camels to be divided among his three sons.  He told that his 1st son should get half of the camels, 2nd son should get one-third camels, and 3rd son one-ninth camels. So, if you see none of it divides by 17.

They started fighting and trying to see how can we divide the camels. Then they went up to an old lady, who understood the problem and gave them one camel from her side to make it 18 and asked them to divide as per their father wish.

So, if you 1st one gets 9, 2nd gets six and 3rd get 2, 9+6+2=17, All got their share and were happy, they even returned one camelback to old lady, which they have taken from her.

With this story, we can see how with some out of box thinking, perspective and wish to solve the issue problems can be solved and hence every problem has a solution.

#1 : Thirty-three percent ( 33%)

Image
 33% - Thirty Three Percent    'We make a living by what we get,  but we make a life by what we give  "  Said Winston Churchill.   It was a gloomy day, besides the roaring ocean waves along the beach, there was a large army anxiously waiting to cross the Ocean.  Rama, Lakshman and their Monkey army were distressed, waiting to cross the Ocean to reach Lanka.  All of them came to know that Sita is in Lanka, and they were struggling to find an appropriate person who could cross the same. Agand, the crown prince, said he is still small, to go, Jambvant was old, others also were expressing the disability to cross the Ocean. Hanuman sat quietly and listened to all this, not sure of his capabilities, whether he could do or not. Then Jambavant the  old and wise bear  approached him and reminded him about his abilities and capabilities as What he can do. Realizing the same Hanuman got the confidence, and he crossed th...

#3 : It's Okay - Don't Loose Yourself

Image
Its OK      At our homes, we have seen from our childhood our parents and later in lives our spouses. They all strive to be best or perfect; to do that, they try to please the rest of the family. This quest of theirs's  sometimes leave them exhausted, and actually, there is no such need. Also, this leads us to pestering requests and unreasonable expectations. I want to bring to you all is one crucial takeaway which I read recently.     Don't expect A+ in every aspect of your life . It's OK to have B, which also means Very Good.  Let me explain. Do not ever feel stressed about having a dual responsibility of family and work .   You all are the backbone of families, but I have also observed that you always strive for best ( which it is OK,   but not at your own expense ), and want to be a perfectionist and in this journey, you never get time for yourself   " Me Time." You are not taking an exam, and you frankly can...

#13 : Life is a Journey

Image
  Life is a journey, and we all in it in different stages. Ups and downs are part and parcel of the journey. We should not judge people where they are, even if we may have started our journey at some point in time. S/he may have embarked their journey from different stations. You may have progressed further in your Life, but they are yet those stations. Similarly, some may have gone ahead of you as well. Last year , I attended Shobha Soul fest where Guruji   Gaur Gopal Das came, during his Speech, he metaphorically compared Life journey to Air Travel.   He divided air travel into three parts, Take Off, In the plane and Landing . Where if you see Take-off and Landing you don't have any control, whatever is done by the Pilots.   For our understanding, they can be our GODs or events for which we have no control over it. While when we are on a plane , the actual journey, that part we can make it memorable, happier. So, it's in our hands to create Memories, happ...
