    Default Put the glass down

    Study this small story, Hope that makes a BIG change in YOU

    Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He
    held it up for all to see & asked the students
    'How much do you think this glass weighs?'

    '50gms!' ..... '100gms!' .....'125gms' ...the students answered.

    'I really don't know unless I weigh it,' said the professor, 'but, my
    question is:

    What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?'

    'Nothing' …..the students said.

    'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the
    professor asked.

    'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the student

    'You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?'

    'Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress & paralysis &
    have to go to hospital for sure!'
    ventured another student & all the students laughed

    'Very good.

    But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?'
    asked the professor.

    'No'…. Was the answer.

    'Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?'

    The students were puzzled.

    'What should I do now to come out of pain?' asked professor again.

    'Put the glass down!' said one of the students

    'Exactly!' said the professor.

    Life's problems are something like this.
    Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK.

    Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache.

    Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will not be able to
    do anything.

    It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life,
    But EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to 'PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day
    before You go to sleep..

    That way, you are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh &strong & can
    handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way!


    So, when you leave office today and before sleeping
    Remember friend to

    'PUT THE GLASS DOWN TODAY! '

    That was really nice Danny, something to really think about and put into action.

    But it is easy to say all this but its difficult to not stress or worry about things, so how can we make ourselves really do this!

    Some of the ways can be:
    # Deal with the Situation in Hand
    # Learn form the situation and take out the valuable lesson's
    # Move on with life and avoid dwelling on the past
