Life can be fun, or it could be boring and monotonous or it could be a pain in the back . Life can be any of the three, its your choice.
A young man was always saddened that he couldn’t make it to the top because life had too many PRESUMED CHALLENGES, to this man every small little obstacle seemed a big CHALLENGE. One day his boss wanted to help change his attitude. He asked this man to get a few CARROTS, EGGS and some COFFEE BEANS. He placed each of these in a steel container of the same size and placed the containers on burner’s and lit the fire and allowed them to boil for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes he switched of the burners
and asked the young man to first remove the CARROTS and feel them, the young man said the carrots had become soft, the EGGS externally remained the same but inside they had become hard, the COFFEE BEANS had changed the color , the smell and taste of the water, the water had become coffee with its wonderful aroma and flavor and enjoyable drink.
The CARROTS and the EGGS and the COFFEE BEANS faced the same difficult task of being on the fire for 20 minutes each faced the same schorching heat but all reacted differently.
The CARROTS could not stand the heat and gave in and became soft and useless and hopeless, the EGGS became hard inside couldn’t face the heat so it changed itself and tried to protect itself, the COFFEE BEANS were the best they not only took up the challenge of the heat , they did not change instead they changed water into lovely coffee.
The moral of this story is , we all face challenges on a daily basis, this could be the climate too hot or too cold, or it can be at office with your boss or your colleagues or friends or spouse or children. Flooding can happen any time, war can break out or an earthquake can occur. Think over will you allow yourself to be the carrot and become hopeless or will you change the challenges into your advantage and let your life become better.
In reality we are so weak, and when faced with a problem we look at the thousands who have failed and decide to give in.
Look at the one person who has succeeded and follow him, don’t follow the millions who have failed.
This is the simple truth about life.
