<html> <p><em>Alarm buzzed at 6 o' clock in the morning and Alan woke up with a sad and gloomy face . He know that it was going to be another long day in office. He really hates his work , but his responsibility and commitment to his family makes him to continue . After completing breakfast Alan stepped out of the home , as usual he was greeted with a smiling face by a young man who is sitting relaxed with a coffee cup in his hand . Actually the boy is his neighbour . Alan's mini-me thought that how on earth could this man be so cheerful day in and day out ,when I'm struggling to get with my life ??. Anyway Alan has no time to chat with him , so he greeted him back with a fake smile and rushed to the office , as Alan thought it really was a long day for him . He could not even have a proper break in his office . With the same gloomy face he returned to the home . He would generally come very tired from his office and he couldn't spend some time with his wife and daughter at home . His wife and daughter missed Alan's love and care . </em></p> <p><img src="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/12/16/06/09/headache-1910644_960_720.jpg" width="960" height="540"/></p> <p><a href="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/12/16/06/09/headache-1910644_960_720.jpg"><em>source</em></a></p> <p><strong>Days passed by</strong> </p> <p><em>It was the festival day and the community in which Alan live decided to celebrate the festival by gathering all the fellow people of the community . Alan thought that it would be the nice time to spend some time with his family and community members . Before the festival prayer , everyone greeted among themselves . Once the prayer has started everyone sat down in front of the God's idol and started chanting holy words , during the prayer the same young boy sat beside Alan and smiled at him . Alan just asked the boy to wait for 5 min after the prayer . Prayer has completed and everyone started to leave to their homes , by saying good night to all their fellow people . </em></p> <p><img src="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/10/04/22/45/friendship-2817874_960_720.png" width="720" height="720"/></p> <p><a href="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/10/04/22/45/friendship-2817874_960_720.png"><em>source</em></a></p> <p><em>Time has come for a little conversation and Alan took the boy to a garden nearby . They sat comfortably near a bush and Alan started asking the boy "</em><em><strong>How could you be so careless? you're supposed to work now , your parents have done enough babysit for you and you've to take the responsibility now " .The boy smiled and told that , Uncle Who said that I'm not working ? , I love writing and I'm an author now . I wrote some famous books which gave me some good earnings and I recently bought a new house in the city . These statements by the boy really shocked Alan because he himself couldn't buy a big house in his life and still he is living in the small house , whose loan is not cleared yet , Alan couldn't stop his anxiety and he asked that , If you're working then how could you be happy every time , don't you feel stress for your work and you're telling that you're earning more than me . Alan smiled gently and told that , Uncle let me explain the things by a story</strong></em><strong> " </strong><em><strong>There was a young boy who loves archery and he joined in a training institute under a reputed Guru to master the skills in archery and a little conversation began between both of them.</strong></em></p> <p><em> Boy : Guruji I'm really excited to learn skills from you , How many years would it take to master skills as perfect as you did ?</em></p> <p><em> Guru : It takes 3 years . </em></p> <p><em>Boy : 3 years is long to me , and How much years would it take if I double my efforts to learn the skills ?</em></p> <p><em>Guru : It would take 6 years .</em></p> <p><em>Boy : What !! How could that be possible ?? When I increase my efforts , time span should decrease , how would it be increased ?</em></p> <p><em>Guru : (Smiles) See my boy , whenever you keep an eye on the destination , you've only one eye left to</em> <em>master the skills , so don't obsess yourself with destination and concentrate yourself on learning.</em></p> <p><img src="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/08/20/19/27/archery-898001_960_720.jpg" width="960" height="640"/></p> <p><a href="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/08/20/19/27/archery-898001_960_720.jpg"><em>source</em></a></p> <p><em><strong>similarly what I wanted to say is that you all people wanted to grab the money fast by working day in and day out and their concentration is not on their work and that is the reason why they couldn't earn fast. Concentrate on your work rather than output , I know that many people just work for the sake of money but not for self satisfaction . Just try working with love and passion , forget the amount you get , you would really end up with all happies . </strong></em></p> <p><em><strong>One more valuable thing I wanted to share is that, many people don't choose their passion and they stuck themselves in other work , eventually they start worrying like anything . See one harm is already happened to you( because you couldn't follow your passion ) and when you worry for what has happened then this worry would harm your mind and thoughts . Two harmful things are happening to you .So always be happy and don't let smile go from your face .</strong></em></p> <p>Can you expect what happened next day ??</p> <p>Alan woke up with a smile on his face and when he started to office he greeted the boy with a smile from his heart . </p> <p>Lol !! conclusion is that steem more irrespective of dollars , produce some quality content ;)</p> <p><em> I express my sincere gratitude to #isleofwrite community for encouraging amateur writer </em></p> <p> <img src="https://steemit-production-imageproxy-thumbnail.s3.amazonaws.com/DQmYc3Ncto2Q52AeT5TKxTuyoCNtYnY5Ytze7hEU8hiNonj_1680x8400" width="226" height="226"/></p> </html>
