 I don't want to sound like a spiritual or an art of living kind of a Guru. But I do want to share these stories which inspired and motivated me in my professional career. And in a way helped me enormously to grow and succeed. Let me give back one such story to you. There was once a man whose boat got wrecked and stranded on an island. Every day he prayed to ask God to send someone to rescue him. But to his disappointment no one ever came. Months passed and this man learned how to survive alone on the island. During this time he accumulated things from the island and stored them in a hut that he had built. One day after hunting for food and returning back to his hut. Much to his dismay he saw that his hut was on fire along with everything else inside which he had owned and possessed. All of his possessions were going up in smoke. Initially he was in shock and then he was consumed with a lot of anger and rage. In his fury he threw a fist into the air and began cursing God and yelling God. How could you let this happen to me? When I've been praying every day for months about being rescued and no one has come. And now everything that I have is on fire. How could you do this to me God? Why did you let this happen? Later the man on his hands and knees weeping heavily. When he happened to look up and catch sight of a ship coming in his direction. The man was rescued and as they were heading back to civilization the man asked the captain of the ship which had rescued him. How were you able to find me? He asked the captain. The captain responded we were voyaging across the ocean. When we noticed on the horizon a column of smoke going up. We decided to go check it out and when we did that's when we found you. That's when we found you said the captain. So what is the takeaway from this short story? Well according to me the takeaway is that no doubt in our professional and personal lives we all face a series of obstacles and struggles and difficulties which we need to overcome in order to learn and grow. The most significant growth according to me will always come when you are overcoming a difficult situation. There is always a silver lining at the end remember which comes naturally. Never give up. Never give up. Always see an opportunity in the adversity. Yes.
