Problems eventually are not that big:

One fine day, a bus driver went to the bus garage, started his bus, and drove off along the route.

No problems for the first few stops-a few people got on, a few got off, and things went generally well.

At the next stop, however, a big hulk of a guy got on. 
Six feet height, built like a wrestler, arms hanging down to the ground. 
He glared at the driver and said, "Big John doesn't need to pay!" and sat down at the back.

Did I mention that the driver was five feet three, thin, and basically meek? Well, he was.!

Naturally, he didn't argue with Big John, but he wasn't happy about it.

The next day the same thing happened-Big John got on again, made a show of refusing to pay, and sat down. 
And the next day, and the one after that and so forth.!

This grated on the bus driver, who started losing sleep over the way Big John was taking advantage of him.

Finally he could stand it no longer. 
He signed up for body building courses, karate, judo, and all that good stuff.

By the end of the summer, he had become quite strong; what's more, he felt really good about himself.

So on the next Monday, when Big John once Again got on the bus and said, "Big John doesn't pay!," The driver stood up, glared back at the passenger, and screamed, "And why not?"

With a surprised look on his face, Big John replied, *"Big John has a bus pass."*

Be sure of what is a problem in the first place before working hard to solve one.

*Quite often in life we over-evaluate the problems and start working on huge solutions spending time, money, efforts, energy and focus, whereas, in actual, problems eventually are not that big!*

Most of Our life is actually as above story !

How to be aware and take ourselves towards excellence:

- Perfection in humans is considered by most of them to be real goal of education and training. The question is, is the perfection possible? Or is it about excellence and not perfection? Let's understand what is perfection and how it is achieved. The process of improving something until it becomes excellent is perfection. Excellence is the quality of excelling, of being truly the best at something. Let's understand it by 4 levels: Level 1- I can do it! (Unconscious Incompetence) The Dunning Kruger Effect.

Greatness by Evolution vs Revolution:

 - Greatness by Evolution vs Revolution: Every human has got his own individual uniqueness and goodness, through which he can benefit himself as well as the entire society. Reaching the Pinacle of Mount Everest does not happen headlong. It does happen day by day, step by step. You too can move towards your own personal mountaintop by taking each step at a time. The Everest climbers don’t jump up to the summit. No, they climb it bit by bit. There is a great amount of dissatisfaction among the people that they don't change even after going through a lot of life coaching seminars and other life skills workshops. What actually we need is we need to know really where we are struck in our micro steps. We have to clearly understand where are we getting struck and what actual solution and approach we need to follow in our each tiny step. Be it an improvement in work efficiency, bettering relationship, managing personal tasks well etc etc. I had this question in mind, there are tons of moti...

I began to realize that life is beautiful because of the world'

- Wise words - 1 In a relationship,  It is not a question of whose mistake it is. It is a question of whose life!  I cannot get a family atmosphere and life right,  by blaming others. It does not matter who is right or who is wrong.  What's important is the peace in the family Life. What really matters is that I got to get my life right.  It's never too late.  So, instead of expecting the world to turn,  I turned myself.  I began the process of demolishing my ego; which is a continuous process.  Instead of accepting myself as I am and expecting the world to change,  I accept the world as it is and it is  I who started to change. A Change For The Better...  Changing my approach towards the family, towards the world. I began to realize that life is beautiful because of the world,  as it is...  Also, I let life be beautiful in spite of the world. Our Family atmosphere needs it.  Losing the argument is better than lo...
