Why we should get trained to fail ?

A letter to all parents......

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.

Got Married.

Bought a big house and luxury cars.

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

*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 had 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 less 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 *success* but he was not *trained for handling failures*.

Now let's come to the actual question.

*What are the habits of highly successful people?*

First of all, I want to tell you that if you have achieved everything, there is a chance to lose everything, nobody knows when the next economic crisis will hit the world.

*The best success habit is getting trained for handling failures*.

*I want to request every parent, teachers,* please do 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 maths will help them to clear competitive exams but a knowledge about life will help them to face every problem.

Teach them about how *money works* instead of teaching them to *work for money*.

Help them in finding their passion because these degrees will not help them in the next economic crisis and we don’t know when the next crisis will hit the world.

*"Success is a lousy teacher. Failure teaches you more."*

*_if you really care, please share with other parents._*

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.

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 ...

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...

Is anybody happier because you passed his way?

- Is anybody happier because you passed his way? Does anyone remember that you spoke to him today? This day is almost over, and its toiling time is through; Is there anyone to utter now a kindly word of you? Did you give a cheerful greeting to the friend who came along? Or a churlish sort of "Howdy" and then vanish in the throng? Were you selfish pure and simple as you rushed along the way, Or is someone mighty grateful for a deed you did today? Can you say tonight, in parting with the day that's slipping fast, That you helped a single brother of the many that you passed? Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said; Does a man whose hopes were fading now with courage look ahead? Did you waste the day, or lose it, was it well or sorely spent? Did you leave a trail of kindness or a scar of discontent? Source: taken from Edgar Albert Guest poem. Reflection of above poem: "Is anybody happier because you passed his way?" is a po...

The Secret to a Happy Marriage: Stop Trying to Win and Start Nurturing:

- Nurturing the Marital Garden: When the Relationship Wins In the grand tapestry of life, marriage stands as one of the most profound and challenging relationships we undertake. It's a journey filled with shared dreams, laughter, and sometimes, inevitable disagreements. Yet, the true triumph in marriage isn't about one person "winning" an argument or proving a point; it's about the relationship winning. It's about cultivating a shared space where both individuals can thrive, a garden that requires constant, loving care. Often, in the heat of the moment, our instincts can lead us to defend ourselves, to score points, or to push for our own way. However, this competitive mindset can chip away at the very foundation of the union. When we prioritize winning as an individual, we inadvertently lose something far more valuable: the strength and intimacy of our bond. The key to a flourishing marriage lies in shifting our focus from "me" to "us," e...

Achievers operate differently. They have an eye for the essential:

- *"NOT EVERYTHING MATTERS EQUALLY"* "It's not enough to be busy, so are the ants." ~ Henry David Thoreau. The question is, what are we busy about? Knocking out a hundred tasks for whatever the reason is a poor substitute for doing even one task that is meaningful. Not everything matters equally, and success is not a game won by whoever does the most. Yet that is exactly how most play it on a daily basis. "The things which are most important does not always scream the loudest" ~ Bob Hawke Achievers operate differently. They have an eye for the essential. They pause just long enough to decide what matters and then allow what matters to drive their day. Achievers do Sooner what others plan to do later and defer, perhaps indefinitely, what others do Sooner. The different is not in intent, but in a right of way. Achievers always work from a sense of priority. Source: received through whatsapp

Stay in touch with your friends, keep pulling their ears:

Once a monkey wished to die due to sadness, he pulled the ears of a sleeping lion.... The lion woke up and roared with anger: - Who did this ? Who has invited his death ? Monkey :- I did, Maharaj, I am very depressed due to lack of friends and I want to die, why don't you kill and eat me ?? The lion asked with a laugh :- Did anyone see you while pulling my ears ? Monkey :- No, Chief ! Lion :- Okay, pull one or two more times, it feels very good 😀 The essence of this story... By living alone, even the King of the forest gets bored…. So stay in touch with your friends, keep pulling their ears, dragging, blabbering... 😄 Don't be dull, keep on having fun.... Believe that your mind will always be cheerful and you will always be healthy…. 👍🏻😁👍🏻😀👍🏻 Let's live to live happily ❤️ Source: Received through whatsapp
