   Watch the ants Lets discuss an observation about ants. I have noticed four qualities so relevant from an ant's life. My first point is ants ‘Never Quit’!! The ants when they are moving, whatever happens they just  keep moving . They will find alternative ways if their path is blocked by obstacles. The only way to stop the ants from what they are doing is by killing them.  Unlike us the ants think about their future. They collect and store as much food as possible for the rainy days. Their  planning  and  hardwork  aids them to survive the whole season without any trouble. They collect grains and other food whatever they can, be it in very small quantities & store them. Ants consciously give too much efforts to make things fall in place.  they do as much as possible.  Courage  is not always a lion's role, it is also the silence of the ants. Our actions today will be our results tomorrow.

The young man decided to find who the culprit was. He cooked his rotis and instead of going for a shower he waited. Then he saw a rat sneaking into the kitchen and stealing a roti. The young man caught hold of the mouse and asked the rat why he was stealing his food. The rat replied that itcouldnt help it, as he had no other means of food.  The man told the rat that it is very unfair as he manages himself in very low condition. The rat pleaded that this was its only meal and that it is essential for its survival, and  advised the man that if he was in trouble so much, he should go...

Don't follow without understanding Once a man was conducting a behavioural experiment on monkeys. 15 monkeys were caged together. A bunch of banana was hanged at the center of the cage and a ladder was kept underneath it. Whenever a monkey reached for the banana, cold water was poured upon all the monkeys. This continued and within sometime, the monkeys understood one thing that even if one among them reached for the banana all of them were showered in cold water immediately.  So the monkeys themselves stopped any others from attempting to reach for the banana.  In some time the man took out one monkey from the group and introduced a new monkey. The new monkey saw the banana bunch and tried to get a banana. A ll  the other monkeys  grabbed at  him and took him away from the banana. After sometime the new monkey stopped going anywhere near the banana. The new monkey  had  no clue about the outcome of going for a banana but  still ...
