A Life Lesson to Learn

In our daily life we come across many incidents which teaches us lessons at times. I have witnessed such tidy incidents since my school days; some of them happened to me as well. 

Today I am going share a very short story, which most of you will resonate with your past lives or school days. My today's story is all about 'not to bother anyone while in progress'.

And it goes.....

During a prank moment in school, a student stuck a paper on his classmate's back that said "I’m stupid"; he asked the rest of the class not to tell him. Thus the students began laughing throughout the day... 

Shortly after sometime, math class started & their professor wrote a difficult question on the board.

No one was able to answer it except that student. Amid the slight laughs, for he didn’t know why, he walked towards the board & he solved it, the teacher asked the class to clap & remove the paper on his back.

He told him “It seems that you don’t know about the paper on your back that one of your classmates put & the rest of them kept it a secret”.

Then he faced towards the rest of the class & just smiled. 

The boy's smile at that situation taught two lessons:

Number One: Throughout your life, people will put labels on your back with many bad things written on it to stop your progress.

All you have to do is ignore it. Ignore the labels people give you and use every chance you have to progress, learn & improve yourself.”

If the boy had known about the paper, he would not have answered.

Number Two: It’s clear that the boy does not have any loyal friends among his school friends to tell him about removing the paper. 

It does not matter how many friends you have, it is the Loyalty between you and your friends that matter.

Be it a personal life or professional life, when you strive for progress in life, do not bother about anything which is coming on your way, instead focus on your goal and achieve the result.

There will be obstacles, obligations, scarcity, fear and even threats, but you have to move on in life.
