Learning How to say No Problem

While Crossing by a Busy Road 


What usually happens to a person facing a hindrance or blockage in his path? Typically, that person first and foremost seeks out the options available to him. Options that can be easily accessed and provide the best solutions are opted as priority. But what happens when available options demand a change in the person himself? A few accept it and make the required changes happily while the rest need the aid of a mentor who can really help them drive towards the change. Many times it sure is a mentor or someone special and for most other times it is the conditions and circumstances that motivate you towards the change.

Joseph often got himself stumped in most of his attempts. Whatever he tried doing was somehow obstructed by either uncertain circumstances or by some person. He used to think that he could never actually run the race of his life and often it seemed being the world itself blocking his way. The sense of being blocked made him often lose his confidence and due to which sometimes even easy daily tasks appeared overwhelming to him. He often questioned himself “Why me?” and this particular question mostly pushed his mind in the blame game scenario where he ended blaming everybody and everything. 

One day, while returning home from the nearby grocery market Joseph needed to cross a busy road. Being his mind full of thoughts Joseph seemed a little hesitant in crossing the road. He cleared his mind a bit before he finally began crossing the road and just then the traffic increased. Though not fully focused he somehow succeeded in making his way across the road. He once turned his head towards the road he had crossed and thought how busy was that? And when he turned his head back towards his path ahead he thought though it looked tough it was fun to reach other side of the road safely. Fun part of life seems to be the problems. Walking back to his home he was smiling to self and as he entered home he thought problems were really a No Problem.

“When being unable to find a solution for any specific question, try first solving a few or even many related questions that could help in leading you towards a definite answer. In life, the ones who first help others as their priority are able to access the best help.”
