The Boiling Frog Syndrome

Put a frog into a vessel filled with water and start heating the water.

As the temperature of the water begins to rise, the frog adjusts its body temperature accordingly.

The frog keeps adjusting its body temperature with the increasing temperature of the water. Just when the water is about to reach boiling point, the frog cannot adjust anymore. At this point, the frog decides to jump out.

The frog tries to jump but it is unable to do so because it has lost all its strength in adjusting to the rising water temperature.

Very soon the frog dies.

What killed the frog?

Think about it!

I know many of us will say the boiling water.

But the truth about what killed the frog was its own inability to decide when to jump out.

We all need to adjust to people & situations, but we need to be sure when we need to adjust & when we need to move on.

There are times when we need to face the situation and take appropriate actions.

If we allow people to pressurize us physically, emotionally, financially, spiritually or mentally they will continue to do so...

Let us decide when to jump!

Let's jump while we still have the strength.

I hope many people will read it and it would be helpful...!

One thing I must say in the end, "Know Your Worth!"

Chess is not only a game, but also a way of life.

Chess is not only a game, but also a way of life. Playing chess can teach you valuable life lessons and you may not even know it! The 10 items on this list are the greatest life lessons you can learn from playing the game. 1. Sometimes it's Okay to Bluff There may be a few times in life where you'll have to tell a white lie - and that's okay! Just like in a chess, you may need to act like you have it ask together when you're really shaking on the inside. This confidence throws people off and can even make them uncomfortable. Use it to your advantage. 2. Sometimes it's Okay to Lose Losing is not the worst thing that can happen to you in life. Sometimes you need to lose in order to learn something. Chess and life are the same in this regards as well. You can learn from our mistakes and come out of the gate with guns blazing next time. 3. Flexibility is Essential Things don't always go according to plan and people are unpredictable...

|| Lord Krishna & Today's Arjuna ||

A rare conversation between Krishna & Today's Arjuna . It's one of the best conversations I have come across. 1. Arjuna :- I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic and complex. Krishna :- Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free. 2. Arjuna :- Why has life become complicated now? Krishna :- Stop analyzing life... It makes it complicated. Just live it. 3. Arjuna :- Why are we then constantly unhappy? Krishna :- Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy. 4. Arjuna :- Why do good people always suffer? Krishna :- Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer. With that experience, their life becomes better, not bitter. 5. Arjuna :- You mean to say such experience is useful? Krishna :- Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. It gives the test first and the lessons later. 6. Arjuna :- Because...

Life is Not Fair on Anybody!!!

Karna asks Krishna - "My mother left me the moment I was born. Is it my fault I was born an illegitimate child? I did not get an education from Dhronacharya because I was considered a non-Kshatriya. Parshuram taught me but then gave me the curse to forget everything since I was a kshatriya. A cow was accidentally hit by my arrow & its owner cursed me for no fault of mine. I was disgraced in Draupadi's swayamvar. Even Kunti finally told me the truth only to save her other sons. Whatever I received was through Duryodhana's charity. So how am I wrong in taking his side?" Krishna replies, "Karna, I was born in a jail. Death was waiting for me even before my birth. The night I was born I was separated from my birth parents. From childhood, you grew up hearing the noise of swords, chariots, horses, bow, and arrows. I got only cow herd's shed, dung and multiple attempts on my life even before I could walk! No army, no education. I could hear people saying I a...
