Shift Your Focus - Dada J P Vaswani
There was a professor of economics who was discussing the theory of demand and supply with his students. At the end of the session, he asked the students, “Can you name anything, any product or service of which the supply always exceeds the demand?”
One student shot up like an arrow and said, “Sir, I can tell you one thing of which the supply always exceeds the demand. That thing is 'PROBLEMS'. Their supply is unlimited, even when our demand for them is NIL.”
“You may have seen if you throw a ball at a dog, the dog will run after the ball, but if you throw anything at the lion, fire a bullet at him, he will not care for the bullet, he will not care for the ball, he will come and take hold of you. He goes to the thrower, not to the thrown."
Remind yourself, again and again, of the beautiful lines "O heart, why do you worry? So what if difficulties have come your way, the remover of difficulties is not far away."
