Time to get Philosophical !

The other day , I was reading an interview of Dr. Devi Shetty, the man behind NARAYANA HRUDAYALAYA. He was giving tips on how to reduce heart attack risk. Among the many useful tips he says this "Change your attitude towards life. Do not look for perfection in everything in life." Well this one struck me the most. Just look around you and think for a while. Right from day one, a person is engrossed in the competition called life. Especially, in the Indian society, we have this knack of comparing ourselves with friends( during childhood), fellow-employees(during work) and neighbours( in your colony). But unfortunately there is only one 1st rank in the class and one managerial position for 20-30 employees.Add to it the common phenomenon of " The grass being greener on the other side". The result- stress, stress and more stress. Ya, I know that its very hard to desist oneself from this comparison matrix. But a little bit of effort should go a long way. Afterall life is not a progress report which is marked as PASS or FAIL. Its your life and you should be the one who derives the maximum contentment out of it. Set your own goals and be your own judge. May the power be with you!
~All the best in ur lives :)
