We should learn not for School but for life- the story of a brilliant boy:

*The story of a very brilliant boy:

There was a very brilliant boy. He always scored 100% in Science.
Got Selected for IIT Madras and scored excellent in IIT.
Went to the University of California for MBA.
Got a high paying job in America and settled there.
Married a Beautiful Girl.
Bought a 5 room big house and luxury cars.

He had everything that makes him successful but a few years ago he committed suicide after shooting his wife and children.

So, WHAT WENT WRONG?

California Institute of Clinical Psychology Studied his case and found “what went wrong?”

The researcher met the boy’s friends and family and found that he lost his job due to America’s economic crisis and he has to sit without a job for a long time. After even reducing his previous salary amount, he didn't get any job. Then his house installment broke and he and his family lost the home. they survived a few months with low money and then he and his wife together decided to commit suicide. He first shot his wife and children and then shot himself.

*The case concluded that the man was programmed for successes and never trained for handling failures*.

Lets come to the actual question,

*What are the habits of highly successful people?*

First of all, there are people who talk only about success habits and nothing about failures.Here we try to remind you about the failures and looses that may come in your path after you accomplish everything. We build our foundation on the strong footing of faith in God Almighty.Nobody knows when the next economic crisis will hit the world. The best success habit  *is getting trained for handling failures*

I also request every parent and teacher to not only program your child to be successful but teach them how to handle failures and also teach them proper lessons about life. Learning high-level science and math will help them to clear competitive exams but the knowledge about Life and life hereafter will help them to face every problem.

At *School* we should groom them to be good human beings. Our Motto should be that *We Learn not for School but for life.* So teach them about how money works instead of teaching them to work for money. Help them in finding their passion and let them learn and understand that *every thing comes from the creator*. These degrees will not help them in the next economic crisis and we don’t know when the next crisis will hit the world.

When you teach children to be 100% successful, let that 100% also include non academic skills which are responsible for a person to be happy and successful in life.

From the Ground Up: Why Teams Drive Success and Leaders Pave the Way:

 - In the vibrant and often demanding landscape of the workplace, success isn't a solitary achievement. It's a collective effort, a finely tuned craft where each instrument plays a crucial role. And at the heart of this craft lies a fundamental truth: the team actually does the job. They are the engine room, the innovators, the problem-solvers who operate at the ground level, translating strategies into tangible results. We've all seen it – the late nights spent brainstorming solutions, the collaborative efforts to meet tight deadlines, the sheer ingenuity displayed when faced with unexpected challenges. This is where the real magic happens. Teams, empowered and given the space to operate, bring a unique blend of skills, perspectives, and creativity that is essential for navigating the complexities of the work. They understand the nuances, the local context, and can often devise solutions that a top-down approach might miss entirely. But where does leadership fit into this ...

The Ripple Effect of Positive Communication and Good Behavior 🗣️:

 - In today's fast-paced world, the rise of aggressive behavior in schools, families, organizations, and corporations is a growing concern. This trend poses a significant threat to our collective well-being and productivity. It's time for us to recognize that good behavior and positive communication aren't just polite gestures; they are essential for creating thriving communities and a better society. The Foundation of Strong Organizations 💪 For any organization, a healthy internal environment is crucial for success. Aggressive behavior, whether it's verbal insults, passive-aggressiveness, or bullying, erodes trust, stifles creativity, and leads to high turnover rates. It creates a toxic atmosphere where people are afraid to speak up or share ideas. Conversely, an organization that prioritizes good behavior and positive communication benefits immensely. When we feel respected and valued as a team, we are more likely to be engaged and motivated. This leads to:  * Improv...

Coping with Emotion.

Emotions:       Have you ever observed some of the situations occur in our lives?      Say, you are walking on a road; suddenly a biker comes and lightly hits you, so that your dress gets dusty. How do you react? Shout at him or physically hit him or you keep passive and just walk on the road. Suppose if you beat the biker, you did not have the intention or even think of beating the person, but why did you beat? It is all sudden, because there is always an internal action and reaction process which takes place between our hearts, mind and physical body, which we do not see. Thus in the same kind, emotions also do work within our body and mind. Emotions take many faces as per the situation like, Anger predisposes us to defense or fighting and Fear predisposes us to flight (run away) or fight.      What is Emotion?      Emotions are a complex state of feeling that results in physical and psyc...

Sadly, men who haven’t grown up emotionally often struggle:

 - We all have patterns, habits, ways of doing things that feel comfortable and familiar. But men who haven’t grown up emotionally often get stuck in these past patterns. - If you notice a man who seems oblivious to his own behavior and its impact on others, it could be a sign of emotional immaturity. - If you notice a man repeatedly falling into the same patterns, especially ones that cause problems or pain, it could be a sign of emotional immaturity. - This lack of empathy can make relationships challenging. It can lead to misunderstandings, hurt feelings, and a lack of emotional connection.

Happiness, Peace, reputation and more:

     You probably have more talent and ability than you could use in one hundred lifetimes. You have all the intelligence you need, right now, plus the ability to learn any subject you need to learn to achieve any goal you can set for yourself. There are no limits on what you can be, do, and have, except for the limits you place on your own mind. THE BIG QUESTION Many years ago I began asking the question, "Why is it that some people are more successful than others?" The most important answer surprised me, as it surprises most people. It is simple. Your success is based on what you do, the results you get, and how quickly and efficiently you achieve those results. It is not based on what you say, wish, hope, or intend to do at some time in the future. Success is only based on what you are doing right now in this moment. As Henry Ford said, "You can't build a reputation on what you're going to do." We are living in the fastest moving, most tur...

Beyond the Clock: Reclaiming Our Most Precious Hours for Family:

 - The sun climbs, painting the morning sky with hues of promise. For many, that daily ascent marks not the beginning of personal pursuits, but the quiet march towards another workday. From **8 AM to 5 PM**, five days a week, the most vibrant, energetic hours of our lives are often exchanged for the steady hum of the office. This isn't just a block of time; it's the very core of our waking, productive selves, poured into tasks and targets that shape our careers, but often leave precious little for the dreams that stir outside the cubicle walls. Think of it. These are the hours when the mind is sharpest, the body most resilient, the spirit most eager. It's when children are at school, when the daylight holds the most potential for outdoor adventures, creative projects, or simply quiet reflection. Yet, for nearly a decade or two, sometimes even longer, this prime segment of our existence is dedicated to the demands of professional life. We arrive, often before the world fully...

Don’t wait for the parrot to die:

-------------------------------------- The story is told of a woman who bought a parrot to keep her company, but she returned it the next day. *“This bird doesn't talk,”* she told the owner. *”Does he have a mirror in his cage?”* he asked. *“Parrots love mirrors. They see their reflection and start a conversation.”* The woman bought a mirror and left. The next day she returned; the bird still wasn't talking. *"How about a ladder? Parrots love ladders.The happy parrot is a talkative parrot.”* The woman bought a ladder and left. But the next day, she was back. *“Does your parrot have a swing? No? Well, that’s the problem. Once he starts swinging, he’ll talk up a storm.”* The woman reluctantly bought a swing and left. When she walked into the store the next day, her countenance had changed. *“The parrot died,”* she said. The pet store owner was shocked. *“I’m so sorry. Tell me, did he ever...
