Simple Living and High Thinking - Bharti Rao

Modern Times has brought a change in the lifestyle of the people. They have changed their way of living. The emergence of technology and new inventions has made their life easier and materialistic. This has confined them in the four walls of their office or home.

They have lost their simple joys somewhere like spending time with families, friends, relatives etc. They do not go and spend their time in the natural environment or play outside or read books. This is destroying their ability to think high. The new lifestyle has led to various diseases like obesity, diabetes, cancer etc.

Due to this, people are overburdened, stressed, full of anxiety and negative thoughts. To maintain a lavish lifestyle, one spends more than he earns. To meet his lavish lifestyle, he has to take a loan or make compromises. One who lives a simple lifestyle doesn’t have to compromise or take a loan or be stressed about monetary joys. If you live simply, you will get time to think about the other important aspects. You will not be stressed. Instead, you will be peaceful at heart. High thinking means to think positively and for the betterment of oneself and humanity. 

If you are not stressed or worried, it will positively affect one’s life, so you should always live simply. If you eat healthy food, exercise properly, think positively, stay happy, it will lead to happy & healthy life. I would like to end by quoting, ‘A person should never be judged by his clothes; for simplicity lies in simple living & high thinking.’

Honesty wins Respect: Ajay Vijayvargi

Honesty cannot be  associated with monetary transactions alone, it is required in every

aspect of human life. For example, an honest factory worker will report on time, leave on time and will not waste precious work hours in gossip or doing non-productive work, not getting involved in any type of politics etc will always gain respect from his seniors, colleagues and subordinates. Now take another example of a country leader working long hours, taking decisions in the interest of his nation and people only, decisions on time, no scams and so on will make him win respect from countrymen and internationally.

As an individual, we need to be honest with our family, friends circle, society, workplace and nation and we will be winning respect from everyone. Being honest with your students will win you their respect, lot many times an educator come across a situation when a question asked by a student cannot be explained or answered or if explained, students are not able to understand, so an educator must honestly say that okay student we will try again /let me think today and will discuss it tomorrow, definitely, students will be impressed by your honesty and will start respecting you even more.

Respect is to be earned and cannot be gained forcefully.

*Honesty is the best policy*.
