I had a friend, Asha, in #school. She was a good teacher, but was never # content with whatever she had in life.
Her husband, Mr. Goyal, was a successful businessman, and an abundance of money and wealth surrounded her. Asha lacked peace, not money.
I was astounded by the way Asha spent money in the #market. She was a copycat. She would buy things that her #relatives had, #purchased costly dresses she saw her college friend wearing on Facebook. She had no idea whether those dresses suited her or not. She #desired the same style crockery in her kitchen. She already had plenty at #home.
She bought all the stuff #without thinking.
She invited me to her house I saw overflowing #cupboards filled with beautiful yet seemingly #useless things.
She will say, "Madam, my day starts #accumulating things here and there in the house and ends by arranging them in cupboards. "
She could never look at #horizons beyond her material acquisitions attitude. She never believed in experience and sense of satisfaction, and peace. She was restless all the time. Disturbed and anxious, too.
I requested her not to be so materialistic. I suggested she spend time and money on her health programs. I also suggested she be outgoing and get involved in well well-being of #orphan children.
I am so happy she agreed to my #suggestions. Now Madam Asha is a very popular and #respected teacher of our school. She is ready to render helping #hands to the needy. Asha is changed #person. I am so happy that she has learnt to spend her resources and energy in positive way. She is a calm and composed person now

My friend Sudha always plucks flower from my garden to give to God in her temple.
My gardener do not like Sudha doing so.
Indirectly I request Sudha not to pluck flowers as my Gardner get upset for same.
But she strongly believe flowers get honored when they are put on idol of God.
My gardner says" Sudha Didi you are worshiping God by putting flowers on idol of God.
He further says " It is an insane activity as you are destroying beauty of flowers created by God.What type of worship is this I do not understand. "
I also believe flowers are essential part of plant which help in reproduction.Moreover flowers are very important part of beautiful environmental plucking flowers means we are destroying environmental. There fore while using flowers for worshiping ,on one hand your pleasing God and on other hand your destroying environmental created by God.This is not logical. I hope my friend Sudha will understand meaning of this logic which help in sustainability of an environment.

I am a science teacher in a government school. The other day I was # shopping in a ready-made #garments shop. I met my old females #students in the shop, who had come to shop for ready-made garments for the #marriage of their friends.
One student said, "Madam, we have so many ready-made garments with us which are #brand new, but we have to follow the unwritten norm of the #group. "
I said, What is that norm? Please let me know. One student said," Madam, for every function one should buy new dress, otherwise it is understood by group members that we are being miser and missing the fun of occasion. "
I said, "Dear student, it is no harm to repeat a dress for more than one occasion. That shows you believe in #sustainability of fashion."
Another student said," Madam, by practising #sustainability in garments, we are saving our environment."
Another student said, "Being students of science, ma'am, we know all garments originate from trees. The more garments we throw as #rejected materials, it means more trees of the environment we are #destroying".
Another student said, " Thanks, madam, for #educating us. We #promise you we will practice #sustainability of fashion in the future also. "
I thanked my students for #agreeing to my scientific, logical suggestion.

I was a good student of my class in my school. My class teacher had given me the duty of managing my class if, by chance, a teacher is not able to arrive in class because of some emergency academic duties.
Initially, I found it difficult, and because of this, I used to feel uneasiness in my stomach. I complained about this to my grandmother. My granny said, "My child, you are passing through a challenging phase of mending your class. So anxiety is causing all this."
I was about 10 years old and could not understand, but now I am old and am handling so many responsibilities of the family and academic front. Now I know how important it is for a person to have a high emotional quotient in life. Being a mother and teacher, I try my best to inculcate high EQ among my children and students.
To do so, I often ask my students to write an essay on how they will manage and help the crowd in flood areas. What arrangements should one make for disaster management?
Some students are academically lower in some subjects. Helping attitude made bridges among students. That brought harmony in my classroom. Managing one’s emotions is critical in the game of life. Learning to manage those emotions starts at a very young age, and one should practice it throughout one's life.
Moral- To maintain high EQ in one's personality, one should practice empathy and gratitude very often, depending upon circumstances.

India
I am a science teacher at school. For an extra # co-curricular activity, I held a little discussion in my class. I asked my students, " What is the most useful asset for a person. "
Students came out with many positive answers. One student said, "If one happens to do #B. Tech computer science, data analysis, electric science, and have good knowledge of the subject, surely those #individuals are going to be assets for the nation. "
Another student said, "Persons who are dedicated #leaders and have #vision of helping people, are assets to the nation".
Another student said, "People who are involved in #building infrastructure of the nation without being involved in #corrupt practices are jewels of the nation."
I concluded the discussion by saying, " Friends! Most useful assets are persons, not heads full of knowledge, but hearts full of love, an effective ear to listen and more than willing to help others.

I am a science teacher at school. Many students from class eleven go for private # tuition to clear the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE)
My student Sudhir Sharma was very hardworking. He was also trying his best to clear JEE. Somehow, he could not #clear JEE. He came to me and said, "Madam, my dreams are shattered. "
I said, "Sharma, you can spend another year on JEE #preparation if you wish".
Sharma said, " No, madam, I will join B. Tech #computer science in a private engineering college. After completing this, I will prepare for the national test. "GATE(Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering). "
I said Sharma please don't give up. " With hard work and dedication, you still can clear #GATE. "
Other students told me "Madam Sharma is doing part part-time job in a factory after attending his regular classes inprivate engineering college. On weekend ends, he goes for coaching of GATE. "
After completing his B. Tech, Sharma took a small job in a company and in 3 rd attempt, he #cleared GATE and got into M. Tech program at IIT Gowhati. I was so happy for his #never die attitude.
Moral of the Story- When performance overtake ambition, one gets success. Best is to work on one's performance and walk towards one's #ambitions.
