WALLFLOWER: THE DIFFERENCE IN YOUR DIFFERENT

THE DIFFERENCE IN YOUR DIFFERENT

Hola Dearies.. Welcome to an interesting Monday and I hope you enjoyed the just concluded "Why worry" series.. No? Quick go back and check (laughs).. Well we'll be looking at a new topic and as I always do.. Read the story and enjoy!
     
          THE FISH BAIT

During a research experiment a marine biologist placed a shark into a large holding tank and then released several small bait fish into the tank.
As you would expect, the shark quickly swam around the tank, attacked and ate the smaller fish.
The marine biologist then inserted a strong piece of clear fibre glass into the tank, creating two separate partitions. She then put the shark on one side of the fiberglass and a new set of bait fish on the other.
Again, the shark quickly attacked. This time, however, the shark slammed into the fiberglass divider and bounced off. Undeterred, the shark kept repeating this behavior every few minutes to no avail. Meanwhile, the bait fish swam around unharmed in the second partition. Eventually, about an hour into the experiment, the shark gave up.
This experiment was repeated several dozen times over the next few weeks. Each time, the shark got less aggressive and made fewer attempts to attack the bait fish, until eventually the shark got tired of hitting the fiberglass divider and simply stopped attacking altogether.
The marine biologist then removed the fiberglass divider, but the shark didn’t attack. The shark was trained to believe a barrier existed between it and the bait fish, so the bait fish swam wherever they wished, free from harm.

 Many of us, after experiencing setbacks and failures, emotionally give up and stop trying. Like the shark in the story, we believe that because we were unsuccessful in the past, we will always be unsuccessful. In other words, we continue to see a barrier in our heads, even when no ‘real’ barrier exists between where we are and where we want to go.
I was speaking to my mentor yesterday and he was hammering on this point "What distinguishes you from others"..
What do you do that others find difficult to do??
That's what makes you different..
Its not just about being successful,
Beautiful, or Rich.
How many lives have you touched just by being different?
Being different feels like a burden but its what makes you different in your difference that really matters.
what is that extra oil you carry that amazes others??.
What do you do that makes you feel special?? .
That is the difference in your different!

Do have an amazing week ahead!

AUTOCARE: TRANSMISSION SYSTEM

Transmission system Transmission System Transmission system is used in motor vehicles to supply the output of the internal combustion engine to the drive wheels. The transmission reduces the higher engine speed to the slower wheel speed, increasing torque in the process. Transmission system consist of Clutch assembly Gear box assembly (Transmission case assembly) Propeller shaft Clutch system The clutch assembly interrupts the power flow between the engine and the transmission when the vehicle is brought to a stop with the engine running. and when shifting gears. It is a mechanical device that transfers all power from the engine into the transmission of a vehicle. Without a properly operating clutch, power transfer and gear shifting would be very difficult. The clutch is located between the engine flywheel and the transmission Functions of Clutch (a) To disconnect the engine power from the gear box as required. (b) To allow the engine to take up load gradually without...

The Sojourner's Diary: ALMA GEMELA(SOUL MATE)

The Sojourner's Diary: ALMA GEMELA The Spanish word for soul mate stands for "alma gemela". You know, I've always wondered. It has always had me bothered. That question. Simple as it may sound, it is a question that has troubled my mind relentlessly. How many soul mates do we get in a lifetime?  Have you ever met someone and out of the blue, y'all connect and a bond is forged? You spend moments together and moments turn into hours, hours into days, days into weeks and weeks into months and months into years, years into more years, you get the picture. Everything is fine is the beginning and then the misunderstandings begin and then you start to see how different y'all really are and then your three hours of calls become three minutes of awkwardness with so many words in your minds but none of them said. You then start to wonder, "was this really my soulmate or did I get it all wrong?" Are we even meant to be together? Eventually, you start to let eac...
