The idea has been taken from the book   Peaks and Valleys   by   Spencer Johnson , which contains a short parable that focuses on how to lead your life during the ups and down phase. In other words how to manage yourself while going through the good and bad times. Ups and Down In Life The story goes like this — A young man lives unhappily in a valley. One day he meets an old man who lives on a mountain peak. At first, the young man doesn’t realize that he is talking to one of the most peaceful and successful people in the world.

How did you become a better version of yourselves or how did you make your company increase its sales or how you were able to achieve the target without any hiccups.  You will get the answers or at least the approach after reading the book "Go-Giver". It is a great book by  Bob Burg and John David Mann . The Laws explained in the book can be even used in our daily life.

Goldratt . " The Goal" book can be used for case stu...

The human mind is filled with monkeys flinging themselves from tree branches, jumping around, and chattering nonstop. Our minds always remain in constant motion.  The mind is full of thoughts like dozens of monkeys, all clamoring for attention. Some monkeys induce fear, some of them are stress-causing and some of them are really naughty.  Some of them are well-behaved too. They are categorized into four types - The Monkey Theory by Sfurti Sahare P-Monkey - Procrastinator Monkey  F-Monkey - Fear Monkey D-Monkey - Drunken Monkey  H-Monkey - Human Monkey The human monkey is actually YOU. The monkey wants all the good things for self, family, and society. It is your better judgment, which can analyze things and can think straight.  It is you performing to the best of your abilities. The guiding statement of this monkey is, ‘Let’s get to the TOP!’ The human mind is full of monkeys . They are the reason for your sudden mood swings.      > The Fe...

 Be Like Water, Shape Yourself, Adjust Yourself Whether we are in a classroom or in the outside world, we are always forced to choose who we are. Always expected to walk towards a fixed goal. Never be uncertain, never fail or never alter our course. We are either artists or scientists or businessmen. We are being constantly reminded to embrace these identities with greater force. As they say, the more we remain folded in our fields, the better specialists we are.
