About our potentials and habitual behaviour

There is a story about an office worker. Getting up every morning going to work, walking the same route as always. On the route is located a clock shop, where a big watch is displayed in the window. As usual he does what he always do. The man stops up and adjust his wrist watch to match the clock in the window.
Now - one morning the owner of the store comes out and ask the man what he is doing. I am adjusting my own watch to match the time on your clock, he answeres. The owner looks at him oddly and asks why he would do that, since the clock in the window has been out of order in 10 years and always show the same time.

It is said that we as humans statistically uses no more than 10% of our potential. That is why the people who follow the followers never make it to at decent level of true succes in their lives, and why wealth belongs to those few that do not go with the current of others. They learn to think for them selves instead.

Wealth and powerty

To be rich or poor? How would you define ít? If wealth is owning stuff then powerty would be the opposite. There is an analoge here. A story. Goes like this: At the time the Buddha lived there was a man that did not really like or understand the Buddha. Hence he decided to confront the Buddha to tell him off. He said some nasty things face to face. Buddha did not answer. The man continued his verbal assaults though.
At last, the man was bewildered. He asked the Buddha why would he not answer? Then Buddha said that if someone gives you a gift and you refuse to receive that gift, then who does the gift belong to?
The man said that the gift would then belong to the giver. He turned and left.

What you give so shall you receive. That man had a lot of money, but was poor.
There is a lot of these stories. Even today. Look for them. To be continued. Hope some of you respond.

Take care. See you later
