Can Sadness be your best opportunity to grow?
My mother is having a good habit of listening to Gurbani. One day when she was listening to Gurbani which was playing on her mobile. I heard one sentence which just blew my mind and I was so excited to know, how I can also apply it in my life.
So, I rewound the podcast and listened to it again carefully. I then get to know one secret key which had been in our life since our childhood but we just ignored the fact that Sadness can be our best opportunity to grow.
There would be a question popping into your mind, how can it be so? I will answer your question by telling you a short fact about a snake (What I listened to in the podcast) and a young man who was struggling with his life.
🥳What I had listened
So, the man in the podcast said that the poison of the snake can kill anyone in seconds and most of us fear going near the snake. But when the snake dies a doctor can mix some chemicals with the poison can make it medicine for cancer.
This fact is unique because just mixing some chemicals with the poison which was earlies caused deaths were now helping millions of people to continue their lives.
Implement of this fact is in the 👇 story.
💡Story of a young man begins
It was the young man’s birthday when all his friends were eating pizza because there was a party going on. But unfortunately, the young man was so sad because he wanted to enjoy watching a movie but the culture in the party room made him unable to do so. Then he started doing some programming but that also didn’t make him feel good. It was the first time the young man felt that his birthday was celebrated wonderfully but he was missing something in his life.
Then he just started playing GTA 5 and watched some youtube videos which made him sadder. But now the twist comes in his life of his. He then began to listen to a Great inspirational speaker — ‘Sonu Sharma’ and then also started listening to ‘Harshvardhan Jain’ who made a revolution in his life. (* This transformation took many challenges eg: people scolding and teasing the young man. So be sure that transformation takes many past incidents which would even make you cry).
One day, he listened to the speaker when he was saying if he wanted to be successful, he needed to read books. So, then he started reading ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ which his brother left for him while going abroad.
After 2 to 3 months, the young man was remembering his birthday and was thinking, that if he wasn’t sad that day, he would not have been reading books and growing in life.
In this story, the young man mixed some awareness with sadness and the results were shocking. Similarly, you can also change your thoughts and can grow in life.
Thanks for reading this story. In the end, I would recommend the readers to also start reading books (especially Self Help books).
