Yesterday, I was reading a book on decision making by Spencer Johnson
He talked about some old Chinese saying, which is quite profound.
Sharing it…..
--
If you want your cup to be filled with hot tea,
First empty your cup.
Create a void.
Then only, it can hold better things.
-
Do we really dare to let go whatever we are holding now?
Is it the main problem, pulling us back?

    The next thing is
    Do not wait for the best decision.
    Just ensure- your decision better.
    Best will follow.
    Something like- Journey of 100 miles starts with a single step.

    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start now and make a brand new ending. ~Carl Bard

    Don't ask where that came from....

    I liked the Chinese saying.  ~see ya

    Yes.
    I think, the main issue we have to addres is
    the- insecurity.
    Fear of losing what we already have.

    it's very simple to say these things and agree.
    But very difficult to actually apply- in our day to day life.

    I am going through this right now.
    That too ,even though, I am very much sure, I can manage.

    yeah, i totally understand. It's means that sometimes, to attract the new to us, we need to let go of the old (if the old is not working or not what makes us feel nice). 

    thanks blank. that is very timely.

    Very nice. I'm having problems finishing my tea before I want my cup topped off. So I end up settling for lukewarm tea instead of hot tea.
