What are you most grateful for?
A
n atheist was walking
through the woods. ‘What
majestic trees! What
powerful rivers! What beautiful
animals!’ he said to himself.
As he was walking alongside the
river, he heard a rustling in the
bushes behind him. He turned to
look and saw a seven foot grizzly
bear charge towards him. He ran
as fast as he could up the path.
He looked over his shoulder and
saw that the bear was closing
in on him. He looked over his
shoulder again, and the bear was
even closer. He tripped and fell on
the ground. He rolled over to pick
himself up but saw that the bear
was right on top of him, reaching
for him with his left paw and
raising his right paw to strike him.
At that instant the atheist cried out
‘Oh my God!’
Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
As a bright light shone upon the
man, a voice came out of the sky.
‘You deny my existence for all
these years, teach others I don’t
exist and even credit creation
to a cosmic accident. Do you
expect me to help you out of this
predicament? Am I to count you
as a believer?’ The atheist looked
directly into the light: ‘It would
be hypocritical of me to suddenly
ask you to treat me as a Christian
now, but perhaps you could make
the bear a Christian?’
‘Very well’ said the voice.
The light went out.
The sounds of the forest resumed.
And the bear dropped his right
paw, brought both paws together,
bowed his head and spoke: ‘Lord
bless this food, which I am
about to receive from thy bounty
through Christ our Lord, Amen.’
God Is Smart
O
Throughout the week
you go thru number of
interactions and events
and you interpret those events
in your own unique way. That
creates the base of happiness
or unhappiness. Knowingly or
unknowingly you tend to operate
from your created emotional base.
Now comes the weekend;
whatever you do in the weekend
either increases or decreases
your existing base of emotions.
For example when you operate
from happiness base throughout
the week; and you celebrate
weekend with friends and family
then your weekend increases your
happiness base. Contrary to that
when you spoil your weekend
by any means you decrease your
happiness. So in either case your
base emotion remains happiness,
either it increases or decreases.
Similarly when you operate from
a base of unhappiness and wait
for the weekend to enjoy; your
weekend can only increase or
decrease your unhappiness. When
it decreases your unhappiness
you get a relief but it’s temporary.
And it is not happiness; remember
it is the decreased unhappiness
that gives you an escape from
miseries. And on the contrary
when you operate from a base
of unhappiness and something
unpleasant happens then your
unhappiness increases.
So keep creating a base of
happiness during the weekdays so
that you don’t wait for weekend to
unwind. Don’t do the reverse also:
trying to create a happiness base
in the weekend. It will betray you
because it is temporary escape.
Keep enjoying the present, keep
celebrating small successes, keep
complimenting people, relish little
nuggets of laughter and create
a base of happiness. Sometimes
your happiness will increase
and sometimes it will decrease
but happiness will remain your
operating system.

“Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.”
I
f I were to ask you what is
your biggest responsibility?
What will be your answer?
My answer is, “Our biggest
responsibility is to become what
we can and do what we can.
Nothing more, nothing less.”
Death is not the greatest loss in
life. The greatest loss is what
dies inside us while we are still
alive. I sincerely believe that
if a man for whatever reason
has the opportunity to lead an
extraordinary life, he has no
right to keep it to himself. It is
better to wear out than rust out.
Our Biggest Responsibility
Responsibility is all about making
choices. Life is all about choices
and unexplored choices. Being
humans we have been given
tremendous freedom to choose.
Wearetheendresultofourchoice.
We are free to choose, but are
bound to the consequences of our
choices. So, make right choices.
Only human have the freedom to
choose. We are free to exercise
our choices and these choices/
decisions have results in life.
God does not interfere while
we are making our choices, but
certainly keeps a record of them
and subsequently results are
delivered. Good or bad, habits
always produce results. Most
of our habits do not produce
immediate results, and as a result,
we persists with negative habits
and quit positive habits (exercise,
honesty, integrity, giving, prayer
etc.). Cultivate the habit of Doing
The Best You Can and You Can
Have a Life Full of Achievements
Which You Are capable of.
One life, infinite responsibilities,
personal and professional targets
to achieve, tight routine, many
plans, few vacations, traffic jams,
relatives, colleagues, family, cha-
os, anger, faith and so much more;
just in this one life. And then on
the top of it people call our gen-
eration cynical. Why? Because
we do what we think we are re-
ally good at or because we choose
somebody to spend our lives with.
I guess these two are the biggest
reasons why we as a generation
has been labelled as ‘selfish’.
However this labelling is way
overrated. Just give it a thought
for a minute, we as a genera-
tion are the people who actually
are making the world a better
place to live in, for our parents
and for future generations. Be it
in the field of science and tech-
nology, education, business,
economy, family, and so on.
It is our generation which under-
stands something which is valu-
able and precious than any other
thing, and that is knowing self and
exploring self. Also, we are let-
ting our previous and future gen-
erations to be free from all those
illogical restrictions of age and
society and figure out life as per
their perception (of course some
guidance is needed However, it’s
just guidance not imposition).
We understand that our parents
have worked very hard to make
us what we are and there is no
one who denies the fact that our
grandparents and parents built the
base on which this generation is
now trying to construct a beauti-
ful building. The fact is that this
generation equally respects its
roots and that is why even in this
chaotic and competitive life we
all manage to find our way back
home. We have our own challeng-
es and it’s a fact that we are man-
aging to cope up with everything
while keeping our roots firmly at-
tached. Can all this be done by a
generation which is self-centered?

There is no path to happiness: happiness is the path.”
A Marketing LessonBe Happy & Healthy
Two beggars are sitting side by
side on a street in Rome. One has
a cross in front of him. The other
one the Star of David.
Many people go by and look at
both beggars, but only put money
into the hat of the beggar sitting
behind the cross. A priest comes
by, stops and watches throngs of
people giving money to the beg-
gar behind the cross, but none
give to the beggar behind the Star
of David.
Finally, the priest goes over to the
beggar behind the Star of David
and says: “My poor fellow, don’t
you understand? This is a Catho-
lic country. People aren’t going to
give you money if you sit there
with a ‘Star of David’ in front of
you, especially when you’re sit-
ting beside a beggar who has a
cross. In fact, they would prob-
ably give to him just out of spite.”
The beggar behind the ‘Star of Da-
vid’ listened to the priest, turned
to the other beggar with the cross
and said, “Sol, look who’s trying
to teach the Goldstein brothers
about marketing!”
S
imon was a diligent son,
but not that bright. Eventu-
ally his mother became ex-
asperated with him lying around
the house and urged him to get
a job. Now Simon was good at
one thing: chopping down trees.
So, off he went, his axe over his
shoulder, in search of work.
Soon he came upon a clearing in
which logging was being carried
out. (Readers of a nervous dis-
position should be reassured that
this logging was a fully sustain-
able and environmentally ethical
operation.)
He marched up to the supervisor
and asked if there was any work
available. “Well it depends how
good you are. Chop down that
tree and I’ll see.”
Simon enthusiastically set about
the task and completed it to the
supervisor’s satisfaction.
“You’re hired. Start right away”,
he said.
And Simon started work, apply-
ing himself with a commendable
zeal. It was Monday afternoon,
and the day soon passed. As did
the following few days.
On Friday afternoon, Simon hap-
pened to see the supervisor. “I’m
glad I’ve found you” the super-
visor said. “Please collect your
cards and leave, your services are
no longer wanted.”
Simon was flabbergasted! “How
come? I am your most productive
worker. And now you’re reward-
ing me by sacking me!”
“Well, it’s true you were the most
productive worker on Tuesday.
But by Thursday you had sunk to
the least productive. And you’re
doing even less well today.”
“But I start early and finish last.
I work through lunch. I spend
all my time chopping down your
trees.”
“I agree”, replied the supervi-
sor, “but how much time do you
spend sharpening your axe?”
Does it sound familiar to you too?
I see it happening all around in
the corporate world. Stop Worry-
ing, Start Working.
“Lot of hardworking people
STOP working on themselves.”
