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!"

10 Life Lessons By Lord Hanuman

Hanuman – the superhero, has the largest fan following all across the world, larger than any other superhero. Long before Superman and Batman came to save the world, Hanuman had already done his part and left a mark. The monkey god was born to King Kesari and Anjana. Since childhood, he was strong, fearless, patient, graceful, compassionate, humble and devoted. Did you know that Hanuman was blessed ‘Mrityunjay’ by Lord Shiva? Thus, while Lord Rama and Lord Krishna had to renounce and leave the world, Hanuman is immortal. This gives Him a special place amongst the Gods and Hindu culture. Hanuman was a great leader.

Our favorite Hanuman sought knowledge from the Sun, his role model was Lord Rama and knew how to motivate his people and keep them going. He teaches us these super interesting life and leadership lesso...

Never Judge - Life By One Difficult Situation :)

Simple yet beautiful stories leave a long-lasting impression on one’s mind. There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away. The first son went in the Winter , the second in the Spring , the third in Summer , and the youngest son in the Fall . When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. 1. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. 2. The second son said no it was covered with green buds and full of promise. 3. The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen. 4. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment. The man then explained to his sons that they were all right becaus...

|| 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...
