Lessons from a Dragon Fly

Lessons from a Dragon FLY: 
 
• One of the Water Bug becomes Dragon Fly. Remaining Water bugs think, “Why would anybody give up this comfortable life, great friends, and move up in search of a new life?”
• This water bug to dragonfly story has THREE profound lessons to teach us:
Realization 1: Great People never thought what is EASY for them.  They always thought what is GOOD for them.
Realization 2: True growth is only when our own past seems like someone else’s past.
Realization 3:  In that one water bug becoming a dragonfly, it will inspire a lot of other water bugs to become a dragonfly. 
• The God who created the Mahatma Gandhi, the Mother Terasa, the Abdul Kalam, the Rajinikanth, theViswanathan Anand, the Sachin Tendulkar and the Saina Nehwal is the same God who created us.  If they can do it, we too can do it.
• When we are still Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, we develop certain qualities, which make us a Mahatma Gandhi.
• Grow – we must.  So, change – we must.  So we cannot avoid the uncomfortable transitions. 
• Change is giving up who we are to become what we can become.
• The mantra is “Enthusiastic about anything and Excellence in everything”
•  We don’t become a Mahatma Gandhi and then develop Mahatma qualities.
