Conversation in the City Bus

Way back in the year 1999, I slowly started training students on employability skills during those days accessing internet was difficult' hence I was upgrading myself with books on self-help series. 

One day, while I was traveling in the city bus I was reading "Think and grow rich" written by Napoleon Hill, An elderly gentleman who was sitting next to me, picked up a conversation by asking me "If you complete this book, will you become rich?" I just looked at him and said I'm not sure. 

The elderly person said " By writing such books, those authors become rich" but I neither agreed nor disagreed" to what he said, after sometime I reached my destination. 

I recollected this incident when I was searching for a book. Now I have answers for the question asked by the elderly gentleman by reading such books: 

  • I might not become rich, but I can avoid becoming poor 
  • I might not become rich, but I can help others become rich
  • I might not become rich, but I can understand how to earn and save 
Self-help books are not meant for acquiring wealth, it is meant for developing the right attitude towards life. 

If you have not read a book on self-help, make it as a habit to read a page every day, you will feel the difference.

Listen, Understand and Respond

  Listen, Understand and Respond Most of the time, people listen to respond rather than to understand. By the time the other person finishes speaking, the listener is often already formulating a response. Let’s explore what happens in such situations. While listening, we may be trying to engage our logical brain to recall our memories and creativity for a response, or we may be accessing our emotional brain to defend ourselves against what is being said. For example, if one person talks about ways another could improve, the listener might offer excuses such as a lack of time, resources, or support. Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
