Punctuality


‘Hurry up, you’re going to be late!’
 
‘OMG, you are 2 hours early, why!?’.

These are two categories of people we encounter.

Either: Those who like to be super early!

Or: Those who, not willingly, let’s rather put it as by default, are really late!

Suppose your boss sets up an important meeting, there will be at least one person who will be at the venue way in advance. 

Then there is also the person who invariably walks in minutes after the meeting has already started and has some excuses in the bag for being late.

For a successful and stress-free life, we should strike the balance to be neither of these two types of people.

We should neither be too early nor too late. It should, in our innate planning to be wherever we have to be, just in time.

We should plan, in such a way, that we reach at the perfect time.

This portrays our personality. That shows our ability to plan our time effectively and hence, successfully.

Sure, due to unavoidable circumstances, we might have to face lateness sometimes, but that should not be taken as a habit.

Punctuality is a mental state.
It should be something that you train your mind and body for, so much so, that you are able to be on time at a particular place, even when the most absurd thing happens.

TREES

Green, vivid, beautiful, and cooling freshness. That is a tree! It provides us with oxygen, it brightens up places with a colourful charm.  A tree plays different roles in different seasons. During autumn , it lets down leaves of all colours for people to admire while they flow around. In spring , it grows a new family of leaves and flowers for everyone to admire and feel vivid. In summer , the fruits are mature, fleshy and sumptuous enough for us to relish on. During winter , the trees fold inside to protect themselves from the icy cold and even the frigid snow. And this process continues smoothly.  Trees need water, sunlight and carbon dioxide, which in some way, makes them related to us. Rather than related I should say interdependent as we need oxygen whereas they need the carbon dioxide. Hence we co-live! A very realistic picture is that when a child starts drawing, he/she generally starts by drawing a blessing of nature—a flower; then gradually...

Generosity

“Give more than you wish to, and you shall receive double in return”.  “The hand that gives is better than the hand that asks” . Don’t we often hear our elders preaching us such good habits since our toddlerhood? This is the virtue of generosity! Generosity is a feature that has been granted to both humans as well as animals. It reflects a kind heart. Some people might be generous from a tender age, while some might not have developed that feeling. But this a feeling that needs to be encouraged in children right at a tender age. Initially, specially, as a child, we are forced to give something and that does not make us happy. If you ask children kindly, they would be more than willing to give to you and that is such a cute act.     However the request made has got to be reasonable of course! No one has ever become poor by being generous. Instead, our value increases immensely! People respect and appreciate us.  A simpl...

Blooms of Heaven

Flowers are synonymous of happy lives. Have you ever noticed, what ladies in happy couples are mostly offered. Indeed! Flowers. Why? Simple, it brings happiness. The joy of having nature’s beauties in your hand is enough to leave you grinning from one ear to another. Their scents, the vivid colours, shape, features, all of these, combine to define a flower. Flowers are of various colours like white, purple, blue, yellow, and then, there are absolute unique ones too. Look at what all flowers have inspired us to. The obvious one is Spring’s latest fashion mode. Dresses, shirts, shorts, handbags, belts, hairband, cutlery, drapes, etc. Floral impact leaves no item untouched. Life without flowers would be like life without oxygen. That statement is basically true, since, plants do produce oxygen! I wonder if it has been proven or not, flowers might be present everywhere, even in the aridest desert, we find a little bloom on the biggest giant spine, the cactus. Flowers ...
