This is the story of a king who was a fancier. He had great collections in his palace and took pride in them. One day another king from the neighboring kingdom gifted him a pair of rare breed of eaglets. The kind was very elated. He handed them over to a trainer and assigned him the taso know k to take care of the two eaglets well and to train them well. 
Soon after he totally forgot about them in his busy schedule until one day when he remembered and wanted to go check on them personally. He had his own expectations from them. He enquired the caretaker about them and he was very glad to know they had grown up well. He asked the trainer to signal the birds to fly. When he did to the kings dismay he saw one eaglet flying and soaring high while the other eaglet always flied to aand came back and flew back to a branch and perched there,
The king was very astonished at this. He asked the trainer how is it that being of the same breed and similar in everything this difference in flying is found to which the trainer had no answer.
The king then announced in his kingdom that anybody who flew the second eaglet to a great heights and helps him fly will be rewarded well.
Lot of people came and tried their hands but to no avail. On a fine day the king was told that the second eagle had started flying now. He was very happy to hear and asked the trainer how this happened to which he was told that a farmer had managed to do this
The king called on the farmer and showered him with gifts as promised. He asked him the secret to his success in getting the eagle to fly to which the farmer innocently replied " I am not an expert at anything or not that i know about birds much. I am a simple farmer. All i did was to cut off the branch of the tree on which the eagle used to perch n that forced him to get out of  his comfort zone and fly."
We are like this in our lives. Very often we are comfortable with things as is in our life and we are unwilling to take risk in life. Actually that small risk, that small risk, that small fly from comfort zone is all that is needed to take us soaring into success,

So lets check ourselves for our comfort zone status and work on it to get our true potential out .


Its comfortable to stay in a comfort zone but there will not be any growth in it.

The life each wished for Once there lived two farmers in a village. The farmers were friends and they worked really hard. They, more or less had the same share of land in the village and eventually with time, both of them died in the same period.  After their death both the farmers were in their after life. God asked both the farmers the same question. The first farmer was asked: how was his life and how could have God made it better for him. The farmer was so annoyed and disgraced with all the hardship he had in his life. The farmer said he had no luxury, he and his family barely had anything to enjoy. They struggled to manage each day. God kept quiet and asked the farmer what he wanted to become in his next life. The farmer wished to be someone who is unquestioned and who people gave money to. God blessed him and granted his desire.  God approached the other farmer with the same question. The farmer said he was really glad with the life God had given him. The farmer thanked ...

Strong roots Sangeetha and her husband were staying in a housing colony. Next doors to them lived an old man. Everyone addressed him as grandpa. One day a man who sold plants was in the colony. Sangeetha and the grandpa bought the same plant and planted it in their yard. Sangeetha had her education in agriculture and knew everything about the plant. Sangeetha watered the plant and used the right fertilizers and pesticides for her plant and she was so prompt with her schedule. After days both the plants were easily distinguishable. Sangeetha's plant was so green and flourished beautifully. Grandpa's plant was barely anything.  One evening, thunder and storm rampaged the area, everyone and everything was affected. The whole night heavy wind blew. The next morning grandpa and Sangeetha came out to check their plants. Sangeetha's plant was totally damaged, even the last strand of root was pulled out of the soil by the wind. Grandpa's plant on the other hand was just bent, n...
