Often, in times of crisis and very adverse conditions, we force our brain to think something new and then our brain creates a new world of our success.
LUCKNOW: The so-called ‘Bad Times’ ‘Crisis Time’ and ‘Adverse Time’ often highlight your unique and outstanding talents and abilities. When God wants to make you a hero, he creates an unfavorable time for you so that your ‘most special and unique’ talents and abilities can be manifested. I had read an inspirational story of George Revise in a book, and then I also experienced that thousands of such George Revise have settled in our towns and cities of our country too.
George Revis worked in a company in London, but a high official of his company who was his boss also, never liked him and used to find the problem in his every work. Even in the good work done by George, his boss used to find out an error and threaten to get him out of the company. His boss did not let any opportunity gone to humiliate George in front of everyone, and for George, his boss was his biggest enemy in the world, who never wanted good for him and was bent on ruining him. Whenever George saw him, his mind was filled with hatred towards his boss.
One day, George had to do a deal with a client of the company but said deal was broken, because George was trapped in the traffic jam and some other agent of some other company reached the client just two minutes before and finalized the deal with the client. What happened then – his boss did exactly what was expected. His boss showed George the company’s door and fired from the company forever. George was desperate after leaving his job. No company was giving him any job due to being dishonored by a big company. Those days were most ‘bad, troublesome and unfavorable’ for George, and then, because there was no other option for himself in the market, George thought of doing his own job and he opened his office by using his last savings and started working in the same area in which he was working in his first company.
George was a hardworking and honest person. Initially, he had to face some problems, but gradually, his customers began to see the potential in his talks and consultations, and he started to impress them, and gradually his work went on, and now he was not an employee of the company of other but the owner of his own company. In a short spell of two years, George’s own company strengthened his credibility in that business sector, and George decided to celebrate the success of his company and invited the same boss of his previous company as the chief guest who had removed him from that company.
At the ceremony, his boss found that a big picture of his own was fixed in George’s private office. Seeing this, his former boss was surprised, but George said that he could be the owner of his own company due to his previous boss only because his boss’s bad behavior and his removal by him from the said company was the turning point of his life and because of that, the hidden talents and capabilities of Georges could be improved which made him successful in life.
Often, in times of crisis and very adverse conditions, we force our brain to think something new and then our brain creates a new world of our success.
Friends, I often say –
“If a person is not succeeding in a small task, then the reason is not always that the person cannot do that little work, but sometimes the reason may be that he is made to do some great work. Keep remembering, big bolts never tie on small nuts.”
