The Story Of Ganesha’s

 

Lord Ganesha is called the god of knowledge and wisdom and there is a spectacular story that illustrates why it is so.

Ganesha had a younger brother called as Karthikeya. Both would get along well but, just like all other siblings, they would have moments of arguments and fights. On one such day, Ganesha and Karthikeya both ended up finding a unique fruit in the forest and grabbed it together. They refused to share it with each other and started claiming the fruit for themselves.

When they reached Mount Kailash and presented this predicament to Shiva and Parvati, Shiva made a proposition. He recognized the fruit and said that this fruit is known to grant immortality and extensive knowledge when eaten by the rightful bearer of it. To choose who gets it, Shiva proposed a challenge. He asked Ganesha and Karthikeya to circumvent their world 3 times. Whoever would do so first and return to Mount Kailash, would be the rightful owner of the fruit.

Karthikeya immediately hopped onto his pet peacock and flew speedily to complete three revolutions across the Earth. Ganesha was a little stocky compared to Karthikeya and his pet was a rat who couldn’t fly. Having listened to Shiva’s proposal properly, Ganesha started walking around Shiva and Parvati and completed three circles around them. When asked by Shiva, Ganesha replied that Shiva had asked them to circumvent their world. And for Ganesha, his parents were more than the world. They were the entire universe.for more stories join

Love and Regret of Lifetime

She was a simple homely girl from a small town who had many dreams. He was a simple guy with a successful career.  Fate brought them together, she fell in love and he accepted his feelings for her too.  She looked upon him as her everything. He understood her more than anyone.  He wanted to provide everything that was good for her.  She wanted to do everything that can make him happy.

He wanted her to grow out of shadows of in-home life and become a self-dependent.  He wanted her to learn how to face the harsh reality of society and make a career, so if anything happens to him in future, she can survive.   He was constantly guiding her and often even scolded her when she made mistakes.  He was molding her for her own good.  She was getting a success and many guys were showing interest in her.  Oh did I mention she was a beautiful too!  She had a smile that can fill anyone’s, heart.

As time passed, she became more confident and her career was reaching its peak. But he as always stood by her, always guiding her and continue to push her for more progress.  However, she was no longer liking him giving her advice.  She felt that she is more than capable of deciding what to do.  He too was always working and differences started to grow.  She never understood why he was always pushing her for more and more.  But she started quarreling with him.  It grew.  She left him saying, “I am not the one to listen to you always, I can decide what’s best for me now, I am successful, There are many guys who will be more than happy to accept me as I am, If you do not like it, go to hell.”For more stories join englishpitara.

He felt hurt.  He who loved her since she was a simple homely girl, failed to understand why would she think in such a negative manner about him.  He who always wanted her to be self-dependent, who felt proud each time she reached the new height of success, how can she say such things.  He left her saying,

“Perhaps the ego of your success has grown in your mind that you have failed to feel my feelings for you in your heart.  I loved you when you were a simple girl without a career or a success in your life.  My intention was always to encourage you, not to make you feel anything less.  Perhaps, failure is mine that after all the time we spent together, I couldn’t make you understand what you are for me and what I wished for you.  I wished only best for you, I wished you achieve more success than me.  I wished you do not make the same mistakes which I made.  That was the only reason I always guided you and scolded you.  May you find everything you ever wished for.”

He knew that both are made for each other, no one can make them happy as much as they can make each other. But, he had no words left to say as he was truly heartbroken. She later realized it but, it was too late and had to end up living with the regret of a lifetime.

CRITICISM and FEEDBACK.

https://www.youtube.com/c/AjayMaskePatil

 "Something I recently observed on social media:

Pointing out people's flaws here and there in a judgmental way.

People are allowed to criticize no questioning that. "it's a free world"And the others should aknowledge that, even when it is not constructive or helpful, and kindly express gratitude. 

BUT, criticism especially when it is fueled by ego, blame, doing things according to the RIGHT WAY, or hate, is toxic.

and here I would like to point out the difference between CRITICISM and FEEDBACK.

*Criticism focuses on what's wrong while feedback focuses on how to improve.

* Criticism devalues. For example: guess you’re just not smart enough to do this. While feedback encourages. For example:I know you have a lot on your plate, but I’m pretty sure we can do this together.

I think advice or rather feedback in so many ways would be better. When it makes the person recognizes an unresolved issue, expand their perspective and personal growth and be a challenge for them to become better versions of themselves.

But throwing negative energy on a category of people will only cause hurt and zero change.

*What you put out there is what you get back*

We should try our best to encourage positive change, instead of undermining confidence. We should try to uplift each other instead of belittling each other.

We should be more considerate. We should be KIND."

The 30 Second Habit That Can Have a Big Impact On Your Life

The 30 Second Habit That Can Have a Big Impact On Your Life

https://www.youtube.com/c/AjayMaskePatil

There are no quick fixes. I know this as a social science junkie, who’s read endless books and blogs on the subject, and tried out much of the advice — mostly to no avail. So I do not entitle this post lightly.

If you only do one thing, do this

Immediately after every lecture, meeting, or any significant experience, take 30 seconds — no more, no less — to write down the most important points. If you always do just this, and even if you only do this, with no other revision, you will be okay.

1.  It’s not note taking: Don’t think, just because you write down everything in a meeting, that you’re excused from the 30 second summation. Though brief, this exercise is entirely different from taking notes. It’s an act of interpretation, prioritisation and decision-making.

2.  It’s hard work: Deciding what’s most important is exhausting. It’s amazing how easy it is to tell yourself you’ve captured everything that matters, to find excuses to avoid this brief mental sprint — a kind of 100 metres for your brain.

3.  Detail is a trap: But precisely because we so often, ostensibly, capture everything — and thus avoid the hard work of deciding what something counts — that everything is worth less. So much of excellence is, of course, the art of elimination. And the 30 second review stops you using quantity as an excuse.

4.  You must act quickly: If you wait a few hours, you may recall the facts, but you lose the nuance. And this makes all the difference in deciding what matters. Whether it’s the tone in someone’s voice, or the way one seemingly simple suggestions sparks so many others, or the shadow of an idea in your mind triggered by a passing comment.

5.  You learn to listen better, and ask better questions: Once you get into the habit of the 30 second review, it starts to change the way you pay attention, whether listening to a talk or participating in a discussion. It’s like learning to detect a simple melody amidst a cacophony of sound. And as you listen with more focus, and ask better questions which prompt actionable answers, so your 30 second review becomes more useful.

6.  You’re able to help others more: Much of what makes the 30 second cut are observations about what matters to other people. Even if the purpose is to help better manage different interests in future conversations, it also helps you understand other’s needs, and so solve their problems. This does not surprise me: in months of interviewing people who make generous connections, I’ve been struck by how many have their own unconscious version of the 30 second review: focused on the question of how best they can help.

7.  It gets easier and more valuable: Each time you practice, it gets a little easier, a little more helpful and little more fun.

Enjoy Reading. Always and all the ways. Stay safe and stay healthy. Have a great day ahead.
