Think Big To Become Big !
An unemployed youth from a very poor family was traveling by train to go to another city in search of a job. Vegetables were rarely cooked at home, so he kept only rotis to eat on the way.
After passing half the way, he started feeling hungry, and he took out rotis from the tiffin and started eating it. His way of eating was somewhat strange, he would take a piece of roti and put it inside the tiffin as if he was eating something else along with the roti, whereas he had only rotis!! Other passengers nearby were surprised to see his action. Every time that young man would take a piece of bread, put it in the liar's tiffin and eat it. Everyone was wondering why that young man was doing this. Finally one person couldn't control himself and asked him, "Brother, why are you doing this? You don't even have vegetables, then you are putting a piece of bread in an empty tiffin every time and eating it as if there are vegetables in it."
Then the young man replied, βBrother, there is no vegetable in this empty lid but I am eating it thinking in my mind that there is a lot of pickle in it, I am eating roti with pickle.β
Then the person asked, βIf you are eating dry bread with an empty lid thinking of pickles, then are you getting the taste of pickles?β
βYes, of course it is coming, I am thinking of eating pickles with roti and I am feeling very good tooβ, the young man replied.
The nearby passengers also heard this, and one of them said, βWhen you had to think, instead of pickles, you would have thought of peas and cheese, Shahi Gobiβ¦ you would have got the taste of these.β According to you, when you thought of pickles, you got the taste of pickles and if you thought of delicious things, you got the taste of them. If you had to think then why think small, you should have thought big.β
Friends, from this story we learn that whatever you think, you will get. If you think small, you will get small, if you think big, you will get big. Therefore always think big in life. Dream big, you will always achieve big. Thinking small will consume the same amount of energy and time as thinking big, so when you have to think, always think big.
