The daughter complained to her father. “Dad, my life is going very hard. Different types of problems come one after the other. He does not get any happiness because of it. His life is in a very miserable state now. ”
The father, who is also a chef, smiled when he heard this, and then took his daughter to his kitchen. Then he took three small bowls and filled three of them with water and put them in the stovil.
After a while, the water began to boil. Then he had a potato, then an egg. Then take some coffee beans. These three were filled separately into three bowls that were boiled there. Then he sat there for a while and said nothing until it was boiling.
The daughter was very impatient and anxious to know what her father was going to do.
Twenty minutes later he turned off the stove. Then first transfer the potatoes to a small bowl and then transfer the boiled eggs to another bowl. Then transfer that boiling coffee to another bowl.
Then he turned and asked his daughter, "What do you see here, daughter?"
"Potatoes, eggs and coffee," she said.
‘Really look’, then asked to touch one of those potatoes.
She said it was very soft when her daughter touched it.
Then he took an egg and told me to press it and break it. When she took the egg and pressed it, she said it was sitting very hard.
Then she told me to taste the coffee that was left there, and when she tasted it, a smile appeared on her face because of its taste.
She asked, "What does this mean, Dad?"
Then the father told his daughter that this potato, egg and coffee bean were the same thing. "Boiling water".
But all three of them reacted to it in different ways.
The potatoes here, at first, were very thick and it was strong. But when I put it in that boiling water it softened and it became in a state of no strength.
But at first the egg was very fragile and its shell was very thin. But when it was put in boiling water, it became very thick and strong inside.
But that bean was one of its kind in the beginning. But when I put it in boiling water, it just made that water taste better and made something new.
The father asked his daughter, "Which group do you belong to?" When problems come in front of you
How do you react to that?
The father later said that the potatoes were very thick and strong at first. But when it came to the problem of boiling water, it became very soft and lost its strength.
But when the egg, which was very thin and weak in the beginning, got into the problem of boiling water, when it faced that problem, it gained a lot of strength and it became very thick.
But when the third bean entered the boiling water it was very tasty, as well as it became a new dish.
When we face problems like this, we can overcome everything if we find a positive thing in it, find something new in it, and cultivate the mindset that it can be changed in a way that others can taste.
As the great Nel Strauss put it, "Big things never come from a safe place where there are no problems."
There is one important thing. “Only 10% of things happen in life. The remaining 90% is how we react to it
