KUTTY STORY 10


Put forth your best efforts in each of your work.
Once there was an elderly carpenter who worked for a million worth construction company. The carpenter had been working with the company for the past 40 years and he was an asset to them. One day, the carpenter let the boss know that he was looking to retiring, as he was getting old for the job. 
The owner, had always been very impressed by the carpenter's work and decided to part him with him a nice farewell. 
The boss then asked the carpenter to help him finish off a last project which estimated to around 2 months of work. The carpenter gave it a thought and agreed to his boss. 
The carpenter started his work but, this time, his work was not as perfect as is used to be. The carpenter was already in a mindset to retire and so failed to put forth his best efforts. The carpenter somehow finally finished the work assigned to him. 
He was very eager to meet his boss, to handover his assignment and get relieved from all his duties. 
When the boss arrived, the carpenter received him and opened the car door for him. The boss stepped out and even before going to the office, commended and thanked the carpenter and handed over to him a set of keys - The keys of the house the carpenter worked as his last project.
The boss gifted the house to the carpenter, as he was one the best among his employees and for his long tenure with the company. 
The carpenter was in total despair and he regretted the way he handled his work. The carpenter, now himself, evaluated the last work as his worst work. He realised had he put his best efforts and skills at work, he would have had an amazing house, with pride,  he could have lived the rest of his life with his family. But for now, he can only regret!!

Never leave any stone unturned in your work. Leave behind your signature in your style of work for others to see.

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.
