  When She   When she walked on the road, the girls put their heads down When she walked on the road, the boys couldn’t resist seeing her again She was not born; she was carved   When she walked into the garden, the flowers were fuming with jealousy When she placed her foot on the seashore, the waves were afraid to come closer to her. She was not born; she was crafted   When she walked into the cosmetics shop, the products were waiting to be touched by her. When she walked into the parlour, the beautician was waiting with a pen and paper to take her tips. She was not born; she was painted.   When she sat to witness a beauty pageant, she was surprised to see the women walking towards her to get her autograph When she saw a model posing for a product, she smiled at the model, who was admiring her beauty She was not born; she was sketched   I think she was born to artists, and she was the masterpiece of their art When I wa...

    Less than a minute, Lesson-3100 Achievers -Achieve Real achievers don’t spend time celebrating their achievements. They stay focused on ideating, planning, and working toward future goals. They don’t stop at one success; they continuously strive to achieve more. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD      

  Less than a minute, Lesson-3099 Luck vs Hard work Those who wait for luck will never think about doing hard work, whereas those who do hard work will never think about luck. Luck might not be in our hands, but hard work is. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD    

There is learning everywhere Some lessons are learned in educational institutions. Some lessons are learned in a humorous discussion. Some lessons are learned in a serious discussion. Some lessons are learned from others' mistakes. Some lessons are learned from the mistakes we make. Some lessons are learned from our travels. Some lessons are learned from the flora and fauna around us. Some lessons are learned from children. Some lessons are learned from elders. Some lessons are learned from our own life experiences.   Learning is a never-ending process. Life never stops teaching, and learning never ends — even our death can be a lesson for others.   Ageing stops when Learning Continues M.L. Narendra Kumar  

  When Does Ageing Really Start? The obvious answer? The day we’re born. Or the first time we spot a grey hair, a shiny bald spot, or a saggy chin. For some, ageing begins when diabetes knocks on the door, or when blood pressure starts “pressurising” us. For others, it’s the moment we’re hunting for our glasses—only to find them in the pocket we already checked twice. The list goes on. We often tie ageing to old age or health problems. But here’s the indigestible truth: ageing starts the moment we stop learning—and stop being curious. Why learning? Because continuous learning is the secret to living the old saying: “Miles to go before I sleep.” Those who truly believe—and live—by those words never stop growing. They surrender ego and pride, replacing them with humility. When we stay curious, the child inside us stays awake. That child is hungry to create, discover, and experiment. Imagine this: a child’s energy and drive, but with your adult face—surrounded by paintbrushes,...

  The Happiest People   Happy are those who believe life is a one-time affair—and therefore choose to embrace it with an open mind. Happy are those who see the present as a gift, accepting it wholeheartedly with gratitude. Happy are those who live with hope, knowing that every day is new and brings something exciting. Happy are those who set aside hatred and choose love instead, ensuring their days are filled with warmth and connection. Happy are those who see failure as an opportunity to learn—and bounce back with confidence. Happy are those who view problems as challenges. Instead of brooding, they think, create, and solve. Happy are those who believe in creating happiness for others, and who draw joy from others' happiness Happy are those who do not wait for revenge; they believe in forgiveness. Happy are those who have their own playbook. Within it, they play their own game—where there are no winners or losers, only players growing together. Happiest ...

  The Pebble and the Paper A young man walked up to a monk, his shoulders slumped and eyes weary. "I feel heavy in my heart," he confessed. "I can't sleep peacefully anymore." The monk studied him calmly. "Why do you feel heavy?" "Work pressure on one side," the young man said, rubbing his temples. "Family commitments on the other. I'm being crushed in the middle." "What if both were gone?" the monk asked. "No pressure at work. No commitments at home. What then?" "I'd be free," the young man said without hesitation. The monk smiled gently. "Without pressure, can you really learn and grow? Without challenges, how will you prove your competence?" He paused. "And without commitments… would you truly stay devoted to those you love?" The young man's brow furrowed. "So you're saying pressure and commitment actually shape me?" The monk shook his h...

  Are You Really Seeing and Listening—or Just Looking and Hearing? Every day, we look at one another. We hear each other’s voices. And yet, misunderstandings and conflicts still arise—again and again. Have you ever wondered why? The answer is surprisingly simple, yet deeply profound: We are looking and hearing, but we are not truly seeing or listening. There is a world of difference between these two ways of relating. Looking is a physical act—a glance of the eyes. Hearing is a biological function—sound waves hitting the eardrum. When we only look and hear, we operate as mere physical beings, brushing past one another without real connection. But once we begin to see—truly see—we notice what the eyes alone can never capture: emotions, hidden pain, unspoken longings. Seeing someone from the heart allows us to understand them more deeply. It builds emotional bonds that mere looking can never. And when we move from hearing to listening, something magical happens. The e...

  Before God, We Were One Long before the word "God" was ever whispered, and long before religion built its first altar, humans walked the earth as hunters and gatherers. They lived not by scripture, but by instinct—hunting to eat, roaming to survive. And here’s the remarkable part: they rarely fought among themselves. Not because they were saints, but because they saw their needs as one and the same. Food, shelter, safety—these were universal truths, not sources of division. In that raw, untamed world, humanity was ethical, united, and non-threatening to itself. Then came the idea of God. And with it, religion. What followed was not salvation—but separation. Humans were divided in the name of God, subdivided in the name of sects, and micro-divided in the name of caste and creed. Walls were built where none had stood. Enemies were made of neighbours. And suddenly, blood was no longer just blood—it was Hindu blood, Muslim blood, Christian blood, high-born or low-born blo...

  After seeing you After seeing you, after seeing you, I stopped seeing other women, I stopped seeing other women— no matter how prettier they are.   After feeling you, after feeling you, I have only one place to reside: that place is your heart— only your heart.   After listening to you, after listening to you, I have only one language to speak: that language is the language of love— Only you and I can understand.   After speaking to you, after speaking to you, I have only one phrase to repeat: That phrase is "I love you"— only you.   After waiting for you, after waiting for you, I have only one thing to say: It was worth waiting for you.   After seeing you smile, after seeing you smile, I have only one sentence to describe it: It was worth travelling many miles to experience your smile.   After seeing you cry, after seeing you cry, I have no words to convey— My tears have exp...

  You can become Divine   You can become divine, You can become divine, When you give more than just a sign — More and more, each time.   You can become divine, You can become divine, When you stop chasing what is mine — And serve the grand design.   You can become divine, You can become divine, When tears for others’ pain combine — And make your soul refine.   You can become divine, You can become divine, When you help their goals align — Not just yours, but all mankind.   You can become divine, You can become divine, When you step back, let them shine — And move forward in their climb.   You can become divine, You can become divine, When “nothing’s mine” is your new line — And ego draws the sign.   You can become divine, You can become divine, When their loss feels like your decline — And their failure stings like mine.   You can become divine, You can become divine...

  Aiming for the Inner Bull’s Eye – On and Off the Archery Range In archery, the target is divided into several rings: the double ring, triple ring, outer bull’s eye, and inner bull’s eye. From the very first day of practice, most archers set their sights on that tiny inner circle. They do realise they will not hit it on the first go; it doesn’t happen overnight. It takes time, focus, rigorous practice, and above all, patience. Many start the sport with curiosity. A few continue with growing passion. Even fewer commit to making it a career. And only a handful ever rise to become champions. Some take up archery simply to improve their concentration and build a disciplined routine. But champions? Champions breathe the sport. The same is true in life. Most of us begin learning a sport, an instrument, or a hobby with enthusiasm. But on the spectrum of commitment, only a few stay engaged. Fewer still turn it into a career. The majority quietly fade back into daily routines, blam...

  Less than a minute, Lesson-3098 Music Good music is so soulful that it doesn’t require vocals, and some vocals are so powerful that they don’t require instruments.

  Less than a minute, Lesson-3097 Not all pushing is bad "If a fish is struggling on land near a pond, it is better to push it back into the pond than to pick it up and examine it.   A fish requires water to survive, not treatment. Similarly, some people need to be pushed back into the arena to struggle and figure out how to survive, rather than being given advice that might sound impractical." M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD    

  Less than a minute, Lesson-3096 Respect the Body. Forcing our bodies to work beyond their capacity will eventually cause them to stop functioning when we most need them to perform.  When the body signals signs of tiredness, it is better to stop than to crash M.L.

    Less than a minute, Lesson-3095 Vital Few Instead of doing too many things and ending up exhausted and unfulfilled, focus on the vital few and make sure you do the right things right . To achieve this, your to-do list should not be like a grocery shopping list. M.L. Narendra Kumar Director Instivate Learning Solutions PVT LTD  

  Beeronomics The Hidden Economy Behind Your Pint of Beer When the summer heat hits, how many of us reach for the classic remedy: “Let’s chill out with a beer.” Picture this: friends meeting for lunch on a sunny afternoon, clinking pints, maybe a cucumber slice in hand. It feels simple, spontaneous, and refreshing. But behind that single bottle of beer lies a vast, interconnected world of industries, logistics, and labour. Beer isn’t just a drink—it’s a global phenomenon. Every country has its own brewing traditions and signature styles. But in this article, let’s pop the cap and explore something deeper: the economics behind the beer. What looks like a simple pint is actually the final act of a complex economic chain. Let’s start with the non-ingredients of a beer bottle: ·        The glass bottle ·        The paper label ·        The adhesive ·      ...

  Less than a minute, Lesson-3094 Being Useful Sometimes we can serve as a bridge, filling the gap where others lack. For example, when we have excess money, we can offer financial support to someone in need. At other times, we can fill an intellectual gap. can also be like a lighthouse, helping people navigate their lives using our wisdom. But let’s keep one thing in mind: it doesn’t matter whether we are a bridge or a lighthouse—let us be useful to others in our own capacity. M.L.
