But when it went on like this for 4-5 days , he called that student to his cabin after class and asked , “ You are sad all the time . _ _ You sit alone and silently in class . _ Don’t even pay attention to lectures . What ‘s the matter ? Is there some problem ? “
“ Sir , that ….” The student said with some hesitation , “…. Something happened in my past due to which I am worried . _ _ _ _ I do n’t understand what to do ?”
The professor was a good person . He called that student to his house in the evening .
When the student reached the professor ‘s house in the evening , the professor called him inside and made him sit . Then he himself went to the kitchen and started making shikanji . He deliberately put more salt in the shikanji .
Then came out of the kitchen and gave a glass of shikanji to the student and said , ” Take this , drink the shikanji .”
As soon as the student took a sip with the glass in his hand , his mouth became strange due to the taste of excess salt . Seeing this the professor asked , ” What happened ? Do n’t like the shikanji ?
” No sir , it is not like that . Just a little too much salt in the shikanji . The student spoke .
” Oh , now it ‘s useless . _ _ Bring me the glass . I throw it away . ” The professor extended his hand to take the glass from the student . But the student refused and said , ” No sir , only salt is more . _ _ If you add some more sugar , then the taste will be fine .
On hearing this the professor became serious and said , ” You are right . Now understand it too . _ This shikanji is your life . Too much salt dissolved in it is bad experiences of your past . Just as the salt can not be taken out of the shank , similarly those bad experiences can not be separated from life . Those bad experiences are also a part of life . But the way we can change the taste of shikanji by dissolving sugar . Similarly , in order to forget bad experiences , sweetness has to be dissolved in life , will it not ? That ‘s why I want you to add sweetness to your life now .”
The student understood the professor ‘s point and decided that now he would not be disturbed by the past .

One day a man went to see the circus . There when he passed by the elephant enclosure , he saw such a sight that he was astonished . _ _ _ He saw that some giant elephants were kept with a rope tied only to their front legs . _ He thought that the elephants must have been kept in big cages or tied with chains . _ _ _ _ _ But the scene there was quite the opposite .
He asked the mahout , ” Brother ! You guys have just tied these elephants with the help of a rope , that too to their front legs . _ They can break this rope very easily . _ _ _ _ _ _ I wonder why they are not breaking it ? _ _
The mahout told him , “ We have been tying these elephants with such a thick rope ever since they were small . _ _ _ At that time he tried very hard to break the rope . But they were small . Therefore it was beyond his ability to break the rope . He could not break the rope and assumed that the rope was so strong that he could not break it . Even today the same thinking continues . _ Even today they feel that they will not be able to break the rope . That’s why they do n’t even try .”
Hearing this , the man was stunned .
Lessons
“ Friends , like those elephants , we too are bound by the rope of negative thinking in our lives . We take the failure achieved in some work in life in our mind and start believing that once we fail in any work , we will never get success in it . _ _ _ _ _ Because of this negative thinking , we never try . _ _
There is a need to get out of this negative thinking ; To identify and overcome those shortcomings , which became the reason for our failure . Negative thinking is the biggest obstacle in our success . So break the chain of negative thinking and adopt positive thinking and never stop trying in life , because trying is a step towards success . _ _ _ _ _ _

On seeing the bait fishes , the shark immediately swam towards them and attacked them and ate them . _ The marine biologist put some more bait fish in the tank and they too immediately became the food of the shark .
Now the marine biologist put a strong transparent piece of glass in the middle of that tank . _ Now the tank was divided into two parts . There was a shark in one part . In the second part he put some bait fish .
The shark could see the bait fish through the separatory transparent glass . Seeing the bait fish , the shark again swam to that side to attack them . _ But it collided with the dividing piece of glass . _ He tried again . _ _ But because of the piece of glass , that bait could not reach the fishes .
The shark tried to attack the bait fish with full aggression dozens of times . _ _ But she failed as a piece of glass came in the middle . _ For several days the shark tried to cross those glass dividers . _ _ _ _ But could not succeed . _ Eventually , exhausted , she gave up the attack for one day and started living in her own part of the tank .
A few days later the marine biologist removed the glass separator from the tank . But the shark never attacked those bait fish because an imaginary separator had settled in her mind and she thought she could not cross it . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Lessons
While facing failure in life , many times we break from inside and give up . _ _ _ _ _ _ We think that no matter how hard we try now , it is impossible to achieve success and after that we never try . _ _ _ _ Whereas continuous effort is necessary to achieve success . _ Circumstances keep changing . _ _ So do n’t let the failure of the past dominate your mind and work hard again with full dedication .

7. Boiling Water and the Frog
Once scientists did a research to investigate the ability of physical change . _ _ _ In research , a frog was taken and put in a glass jar . _ _ _ Then the jar was filled with water and heated it . The jar was not covered with a lid , so that when the hot water temperature was beyond the tolerance of the frog , it could jump out .
Initially the frog sat peacefully in the water . _ As the temperature of the water started rising , there was some movement in the frog . He understood that the water in which he is sitting looks a bit hot . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ But instead of jumping out , he started using his body ‘s energy to keep pace with the increased temperature . _
The water got a little hotter , the frog felt more restless than before . But , that restlessness was within the limits of his stamina . _ So he did not jump out of the water , but instead began to use the energy of his body to adjust to the hot water .
Gradually the water became hotter and the frog used more energy of its body to adjust to the increased temperature of the water . _ _ _ _
When the water started boiling , the frog ‘s life came to an end . Now his stamina had given the answer . He gathered the strength of his body to jump out of the jar , but he had already used all the energy of his body to slowly adjust to the boiling water . _ He no longer had the energy to jump out of the jar . _ He failed to jump out of the jar and died in the same jar .
If in time he had used the energy of his body to jump out of the jar , he would have been alive .
Lessons
Friends , this happens in our life too . _ Often when the circumstances are unfavourable , we do not try to improve or get out of it , but try to adjust to it . Our eyes open when the circumstances become uncontrollable and we keep on regretting why we did not make any effort in time . _ _ _ _ _ Therefore , as soon as you have the initial experience , start the process of improving the situations and when you understand that it is difficult to handle them now , then get out of it . It is necessary to fight with the situation , but it is wise to get out of it in time .

10. The problem of fishermen
Motivational Story In English : Fish has been a favorite food item of the Japanese for years . They consider it an integral part of their diet . _ They love the taste of fresh fish . _ But due to the lack of fish on the shores , the fishermen have to go to the middle of the sea to catch fish .
In the early days , when the fishermen went to the sea to catch fish , they would come back too late and the fish would become stale . This became a big problem for them because people used to shy away from buying stale fish .
The fishermen solved this problem by installing a freezer in their boat . After catching the fish , they put them in the freezer . This kept the fish fresh for a long time . But people recognized the taste of the fish kept in the freezer . They did not taste as delicious as fresh fish . People did not like them very much and did not want to buy them .
The process of thinking again started among the fishermen to find a solution to this problem . _ _ _ Eventually the solution was found . _ All the fishermen got fish tanks built in their boats . After catching the fish , they put them in a fish tank filled with water . In this way they started bringing fresh fish to the market . But a problem arose in this too . _
In the fish tank , the fish would move here and there for some time . But due to not much space , it would become stable after some time . When the fishermen reached the shore , they were breathing . _ _ _ _ But they did not have the taste of fish that move freely in sea water . People used to taste this difference . _
This again became a problem for the fishermen . _ _ _ Even after so many efforts , no permanent solution was found to the problem . _ _
Again their meeting took place and the thinking started . _ _ According to the solution that was worked out after careful consideration , the fishermen continued to catch the fish and put it in the fish tank . But together they also started putting a small shark fish in the tank . _ _
Shark fish used to kill and eat some fish . In this way some loss was definitely to the fishermen . But the fish that did reach the shore were still alive and fresh . _ _ This was because of the shark fish . Because of the fear of shark fish , the fish were careful and attentive to save their lives the whole time . In this way , despite being in the tank , she remained fresh .
With this trick Japanese fishermen solved their problem . _ _ _ _
Friends , until we do not face challenges like sharks , our life is like a fish lying in a tank – lifeless and dull . _ _ _ We are breathing , but we do not have vitality . _ _ _ We just stick to the same routine . _ _ _ _ Gradually we become so accustomed to it that when challenges come , we die in front of them very quickly or give up . _ _ _ _ Gradually , due to the fear of challenges and hard work , we stop dreaming big and start living a simple life by compromising on the circumstances . If you want to achieve big and extraordinary success in life , you have to dream big . To convert dreams into reality , one has to work hard , prepare oneself to face the challenges . _ _ _ _ _ _ Only then will great and extraordinary success be achieved .
