The man who missed his train
Mr Serious was travelling to his destination. On the way, he met Mr
Opinion, who shared his opinion about Mr Serious's performance. After a few
meters, he came across Appreciation, who was praising his performance. Next, he
encountered Feedback, where he was sandwiched between positive and negative
comments. A few meters later, he came across Criticism, who was piercing him
with critical comments. By the time he reached the railway station, he had
missed his train.
While planning his next journey, he pondered all the people he had met,
and his mind was filled with their words. He felt happy on one hand due to the
appreciation, but more burdened by the comments, feedback, and criticism.
Many of us are like Mr Serious, who gets carried away by others in life.
All we need to do is define our destination and keep moving forward. We do
require some appreciation and feedback to move on, but remember, spending too
much time on others' words will delay our travel toward our destination.
Be mindful of what you fill your mind
with.
