Money Series: Part 15

By: Tarun Prakash Srivastava, Sr. Executive Editor-ICN Group

Life does not run from the ‘rule of assumption and presumption.’ The conflicting streams are always flowing in life, and the negative and backward currents are always faster and faster.

Conflicting Directions of Income and Loss:

Here we would like to take you in your childhood when you used to solve math problems in a junior classroom. We used to assume that there is a tub of 100 liters of water capacity to which a tap is attached, through which 5 liters of water are coming out every hour. What should be the speed of filling water in the tub with a second tap on the tub, so that the tub does not get empty? We know that if the speed of water filling in the tub with the upper tube is lesser than five liters per hour, the tub will be empty at a point of time.

The second example is also interesting. Imagine that you are traveling on a road that is rolling back at a rate of five kilometers per hour. Even if you remain idle on that road quietly, you will also go back at a rate of five kilometers per hour. If you keep your moving speed five kilometers per hour, then you can keep your place on that road, and if you want to move ahead and reach your destination, then you must have your speed more than five kilometers per hour.

In the first example, the ‘tap throwing the water out of tub’ and in the second example, ‘rolling back of the road’ are the inflation rate and ‘tap filling the water in the tub’ and ‘your own moving speed’ is the ‘rate of earning your income’. I understand that both of these examples are reaching out to you with my message very clearly.

Relevantly, I share a joke with you. One person used to go to a restaurant every day and ordered only a cup of tea. One day the waiter asked him why he ordered only a cup of tea and never asked for ‘Samosas’ or biscuits. The person said that he is a teacher of mathematics, and he presumes that the ‘Samosas’ and biscuits are already with him.

I am sharing this joke to explain that we have read the mathematics in our schools with the theory of ‘presumption and assumptions’ but the real-life mathematics is exactly the opposite and it compels us to understand that there is no assumption or presumption therein. Despite having obtained 100% marks in mathematics, we may fail in the mathematics of our real life again and again.

Life does not run from the ‘rule of assumption and presumption.’ The conflicting streams are always flowing in life, and the negative and backward currents are always faster and faster. Look carefully around you – negativity is visible only on every side. People do not want to let you grow any further, and even some of them who claim to be most close to us,  want to make us negative and rootless like them by giving reasons of their so-called love and affection. Such people are very close to us. While respecting our relations, we have an urgent need to avoid them.

It is very important for you to wake up so that despite the horrific storms in life with thousands of backward pushing streams, you can recognize and find the forward currents which may take you ahead.

Remember, in the mathematics book of childhood, the speed of rolling back of the road and carrying the water out of the tub was certain, but in real life, their speeds are not balanced, and their speeds can be faster than the fastest. Therefore, we must always keep in mind that the speed of our advancement be also increasing and accurate and only then, we will be able to achieve the gap between these two opposite motions. This is standard of our victory and lace of our wealth; please note.

Look carefully at your surroundings once again. Who is going back with the currents of streams and who is trying to rip out those currents? You can never move forward by holding their hand who are flowing backward. These people will also pull you back with them. Those who are struggling with these opposite currents and are moving forward are your real friends and inspiration sources. Identify these people, stay close to them and with open eyes, see what they are doing that they appear to be standing apart from the ninety-seven percent people of the world. You will see that they are equipped with such powers that even the storm that runs in the opposite direction, fails to push them back. Do you want to be like this? Surely ‘yes,’ otherwise you cannot access this page of the book and have been busy with your favorite job of cursing your fortune by closing this book long ago.

Let’s go ahead with a brief introduction of their powers because in the further stages I have not only mentioned these powers in detail but have also tried to explain how you can continuously develop these skills in your life to become a winner in the world. These powers are-

1-Positive attitude and life vision

2-Earning confidence and self-esteem

3-Failure is not the end but is the beginning of a fresh game of life

4-Love and affection

5-Notice the merits, ignore the demerits

6-Respect for others

7-Learn the winning strategies only from the winners

8-Investing your savings in higher income investment etc. – etc.
