Living is a skill. Let us explore the learning potential which is hidden in every living experience with a thought provoking Q&A session.
Q: What is the central purpose of every living experience?
A: Every living experience has a hidden potential to teach. They can impart the lesson(s) to make us emotionally mature and grow wiser.
Q: Why do some people grow wiser and some people remain ignorant, while facing similar experiences in their lives?
A: The basic attitude with which one approaches an experience determines our growth. At top end of the spectrum, you have people who welcome any experience and discover the blessings for their growth. At the bottom end of the spectrum, you have people who blame the world for every hardship they face. These people are stubborn, unwilling to learn and change themselves. You have infinite combinations of attitudes within that spectrum.
Q: How can I self assess my position in the spectrum?
A: The test is very simple. At the end of each day, before I sleep, if I feel blessed and thank the world for the lessons, then I am in the top end. However, if I suffer by blaming the world and/ or the people around me, then I am in the bottom end of the spectrum. The choice is clearly mine.
