The Missing Goat

We all take life very seriously. And we are so much worried about our future that we forget to live in the present. Sometimes we dwell over our past and make ourselves worried by guessing the outcome of the future.

Worry takes hold of our life slowly and steadily. It is a demon that changes our view from glass half full to glass half empty. Billionaire and beggar both are aware of it. Worry vague the positivity in our mind. Fear, anxiety and obnoxious thinking brews up. It drains one’s physical and mental energy and diverts it into the ocean of negativity. And before you know, you would have taken the step that plunge you into bigger troubles.

Keep aside your worries for a minute and let me tell you this interesting story…

Somewhere in the outskirts of village called Worryville, two school-going friends got a crazy idea.

They went to one of their neighbour’s farm and rounded up with his three goats. On their sides they painted the number 1, 2 and 4. In the night, when villagers were asleep, they untethered the goats and lose them into the village’s post office building. Next day, when the authorities entered the building, they noticed something fishy. On the stairs, near the doors of their offices and inside the compound they saw goat droppings. Suddenly they realized that some goats might have strayed into the building during night. They were successful in locating the three goats after few hours of searching.

The villagers saw the numbers 1, 2 and 4 on the three goats. Within a moment they started worrying about the missing goat number 3. For the whole day, they close off their offices and started hunting for the missing goat. Staffs, peons, villagers and children spent their whole day to look for it.

When the day ended, they stopped their search and returned back to their home thinking that the goat number 3 might have wandered off to the nearby village unknowingly. Even the subject of conversation during their leisure time – the time when villagers gathered in the common ground – was the missing goat number 3.

In our story, villagers never found the missing goat. Simply…because the goat number 3 never existed.

In spite of having a good life, we are consistently worried about the missing goat. We are aware that it is an illusion and it is non-existent. For us, the absence of something is always higher than the presence of other things. May it be politics, corruption, unemployment, debauchery, poverty or any other things, we repeatedly do complaints with each other.

So friends, let us cultivate this new thinking and stop worrying about the missing goat number 3. We should appreciate what is with us instead of mourning for what is not with us. Maybe our resources are limited but not our willpower and perseverance. Instead of whining over our problems, let us join our hands together to work for the betterment of our society, our country and our people.

Let us make the difference! We at MYO can do it!

CURRENCY & KARMA

CURRENCY

NOWADAYS CURRENCY DEMONITIZATION  HAS BROUGHT BIG CHANGE IN OUR LIVES, FROM SPENDING MONEY TO USING IT EITHER. THIS HAS BEEN DONE TO RECOLLECT THE BLACK MONEY WHICH ARE NOT LISTED IN AS INCOME . THIS IS TO WARN US THAT PLEASE EARN MONEY WISELY AND HONESTLY, NOT SO HARSHLY OR UNETHICALLY. ( I AGREE AT SOME POINT OF TIME WE HAD TO BE SMART IN OUR EARNING BUT NOT ALWAYS)BUT WE HUMANS ARE SO MEAN THAT WE WANT JUST MONEY THE WAY OF GETTING IT MAY BE RIGHT OR WRONG , DOESNT MATTER .

KARMA

KARMA GIVES YOU WHAT YOU SOW. IF YOU HAVE SOWN GOOD THEN YOU WILL GET GOOD AND IF YOU HAVE SOWN BAD THEN YOU WILL GET BAD. THAT'S THE RULE. WHEN YOU ARE HAPPY AND EARNING MONEY EASILY YOU DONT REMEMBER GOD AND KARMA . SO GOD SENDS SOME BREAK UP WITH HEALTH , FINANCIAL LOSS , OR ELSE TO WARN YOU TO TELL YOU , " STOP IT HERE " AND THEN ALSO IF WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND THEN WE GET A BIG SLAP IN OUR LIFE BY KARMA , WHICH MAKES US UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING AND THE VALUE OF LIFE TOO.

Soul Enlightening Diwali

This Diwali, 
instead of wearing a new dress, 
can I change the way I address people?


This Diwali, 
instead of cleaning an already clean house,
can I work on scrubbing my dusty heart?

This Diwali,
instead of lighting up my doorway,
can I question my pathway to ignorance?

This Diwali,
instead of stuffing myself with sweets,
can I give up the bitterness in my heart?

This Diwali,
instead of bursting crackers,
can I burst my egoistic pride?
The day I do all this,

The Divine will quietly walk into my heart ....
or
Else with all the noise,
I may celebrate Diwali....
but sans my Divinity !!!!!

GOD’S DELAYS AREN’T GOD’S DENIALS!

I know sometimes its very hard to believe you actually can realize your aspirations?

Isn’t it? Even after trying for many years and nothing has worked out in our favour.

Let me ask u: Have you ever wondered why most people don’t achieve their goals ?

The reason is they give up too soon .

Most people quit after they have struck out or got knocked down a few times .So they incorrectly think that if they cant achieve their goals after several attempts then they are a failure and never be able to attain their goal for the rest of their lives.

The Truth is , If they just hold on to their dreams and persist a little bit longer when the situation gets tough , then they will reach their dreams sooner or later .

Eg: It took Thomas Edison more than 10000 trials before he succeeded in inventing the light bulb.

 ‘ TRY TRY AND YOU WILL SUCCEED ’ is the formula for us to achieve our goals.

If you have been working on a worthy goal for a while and haven’t produced the results you wanted, Keep on trying, you may jusy be a foot to two from the diamond field. So keep on digging no matter what obstacles you might encounter.

Success does not lie in “RESULTS” but  in  “EFFORTS”.

YOUTH MOTIVATION

Youth, what is youth??

Youth is what who have fresh and better ideas, who have dreams full of energy, capability to turn the dreams into reality, to turn the situations into their favour, having a new way of thinking. So we can say that we have so much potential to grow up, to go ahead in the direction to become a developed nation, to become no.1.

Youth is the perfect combination of mind and energy.

Our country, INDIA, now days having maximum population in their young age, so as possibilities are.

 

Let’s take an example:

Youth is like seed. We have seeds which can be converted into a long live huge tree but the question is how???

Waster and sunshine are the most important things to develop a seed and to become a huge tree.

&

What if that seed can’t get enough water and sunshine & proper care??? It will be a waste of resources.

As same as, our youth is like an opportunity to make our nation more powerful. If they can have the proper atmosphere in the nation, their energy can be diverted into right direction, otherwise it’s a waste.

To develop a nation, we must motivate them through better opportunities, availability of sourced and information.

Where is youth?

Youth, where we can have them?

Schools, colleges, entrepreneurs and so on…

From where the journey should be started?

Schools, a necessary place where all kids should have. [Thanks to ‘SARV SIKSHA ABHIYAAN’ and ‘RTE’, Indian kids have schools to at least educate them.]

Once a youth have proper start up guidelines and some help, they will surely draw their own path and will go on and on. They will achieve, they will be succeeded.

Schools are not only to study them but also to nurture their other skills like sports, music, arts & crafts, painting, writing, acting. A nation doesn’t need only professionals nor it’s enough. A tree must be developed in all directions and all of its branches should be developed, not just one branch.

A nation must have sports persons, actors, scientists, artist, writers and poets to grow up in all manners.

A reason to develop all the skills from school is “koi maa k pet se sikh k nahi aata”, it’s like “practice makes man perfect”.

(One can’t imagine a better future without creating a better today.)

Next step:

After school life, it will be easier to find out the subject of interest for someone. The proper guideline in further life is needed as outer world experience is zero.

Colleges should have that all facilities which were in schools because a nation doesn’t want only professionals, but also needs soft skills, sport skills, actors, writers, musicians, army men, scientists & so on. (as tree can’t grow in single direction, but in all directions.)

This will nurture youth in productive way and make them motivated as their base will be poured with advanced facilities. (Same as seeds are poured with water and sunshine)

The youth must get platforms like these and the progress of youth lives in it.

Motivation is not only the powerful words, but also the powerful and intelligent acts in all directions.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP LESSONS BY BILL GATES

Bill Gates comes in the category of most successful entrepreneurs in the world.

I am not referring to his Financial and Technological status but also speaking of his Generosity and Kindness towards human race and nature.He has donated hundreds of millions of dollars to charities and created the largest software company in the world.

Becoming an entrepreneur does not have to do with taking the easy way out , rather it is about discovering yourself and inventing something larger than you.

Here are 7 lessons for being an successful entrepreneur:

• BE INNOVATIVE:
• The times are changing and technology even so more.Without a constant need to develop and grow,one cannot expand his business.
  • VALUE YOUR TIME :
  “No matter how much money , you have you cannot buy more time –Bill Gates”
  You cannot make up for the lost time with money or bargaining, once it is gone,it is simply gone.Manage your time well and it should be worth invested in your work.
  • CHOOSE THE ROAD NOT TAKEN:
  To win big you sometimes have to take big risks – Bill Gates
  Bill gates believed that the path to success is not always clearly marked.Many people go down the common roads , they believe they lead them to success. The Truth , however liesin the ability to thread to unventured territory. You must walk on the different and unique road to achieve success.
  • MAKE DREAMS REALITY:
  Believe it and do it – Bill Gates
  Your expectations and dreams lead to where you want to go . For it you have to work with great amount of energy and efforts to accomplish . Dreams only become reality through  Hard work and hustling .
  • TAKE AWAY LESSONS FROM DISSATISFIED CLIENTS:
  This is true for clients and for everyday life too. Your mistakes are the truest teachers of your life . As an Entrepreneur having dissatisfied clients with what they are paying or saying are the best ways to innovate your product and learn from mistakes .Enjoy the positive feedback you receive during your growing stages, but pay close attention to the critiques, as they are going to build your legacy of success.
  • INITIALIZE ACTIONS CONSTANTLY:
  According to Bill gates, You must always execute action. Everyday mediocre people came up with genius concepts. However very few of these people create execution plan and actually follow through with it.
  • MAKE AN IMPACT:
  Bill Gates was strongly successful in making an impact in information technology and also in giving unconditionally (Donations). Having a cause is vital when attempting to do something. As an entrepreneur always have a final cause at the start of your journey .This will ensure you stay motivated.
  

  

Raavan inside us

Everyone sees what you appear to be .... Only few knows who you really are!

EVILS-( ANGER,EGO,GREED,HATRED )INSIDE US

We live in such a material world that we  blindly believe what we are told from our forefathers.

We had never thought twice or used our brains to know the truth.

I am talking about Raavan , for whom we carry a very bad image in our minds  but the truth is different .

Raavan was born in Rakshasa community but that doesnt make him Rakshasa.

Raavan was a very good man , he was an expert in vedas, very intelligent and knowledgeable person who also had his ethics and principles for his life.

In the same way god created humans as most valuable creature for helping others , being honest, loyal etc.... But do we possess the" Humanity within".. !

We have no answer. so its better to think twice  before we point a finger on someone else. 

 Raavan inside us - anger, hatred , ego , greed etc.... 

One day a man asked buddha : lord, what do i do to get rid of all these evils (raavan)inside me?

Buddha replied: My son, these are the bad qualities(anger,hatred,ego,greed) inside u, So  if u feed them more then they will rule u. Do not feed these qualities much and u will win .

Man asked : and what about the good qualities lord?

Buddha replied: More you feed your good qualities and more satisfied you will be. Good qualities are Love, kindness, forgiveness, compassion etc.. These qualities will enhance your inner strength.
