00:00Once a child came to visit his grandfather during his summer holidays.
00:07He used to play with his grandpa all the time.
00:11One day he said to his grandpa,
00:13When I grow up, I want to become a successful man.
00:17Can you tell me some ways to be successful?
00:20Grandfather nodded.
00:22Yes.
00:23And took the boy with him to a nearby nursery.
00:26From nursery, his grandpa bought two small plants and came back home.
00:31Then he planted one plant in a pot and kept it inside the house
00:36and planted another one outside the house.
00:38What do you think?
00:40Which of these two plants will grow better in future?
00:43Grandfather asked the boy.
00:45Boy kept thinking for some time and then said,
00:50The plant inside the house will grow better
00:53because it is safe from every danger
00:56while the plant outside is at risk of many things
00:59like strong sunlight, storms, animals, etc.
01:05Grandfather smiled and said,
01:07Let's see what happens in future.
01:09After that, boy left with his parents.
01:11After four years, boy came to visit his grandfather again.
01:16When the boy saw his grandfather, he said,
01:20Grandpa,
01:22Last time I asked you some ways to be successful,
01:25but you did not tell me anything.
01:27But this time, you have to tell me.
01:30Grandfather smiled and said,
01:32Sure.
01:34But first let's take a look at plants that we bought a few years back.
01:38Saying this, grandfather took the boy to a place
01:41where he had planted a small plant in a pot.
01:44They saw that the plant had turned into a tree.
01:47Then he took the boy to look at the plant,
01:50which they had planted outside.
01:52There they saw that a huge tree stood.
01:55Its branches spread far and wide,
01:57providing shade to passers-by.
02:00Now grandfather looked at the boy and asked,
02:03Tell me which plant grew more, which is more successful.
02:07Boy replied,
02:09The one we planted outside.
02:11But grandpa, how is this possible?
02:15That plant must have faced so many dangers
02:19still it grew so big.
02:21Grandfather smiled and said,
02:23Yes, plants outside had to face many things,
02:28but dealing with problems had its benefits too.
02:31Plants outside had the freedom to spread their roots
02:35as much as they wanted.
02:37Problems like storms made its roots stronger.
02:41Today it is so strong
02:43that a small storm cannot cause any harm to it.
02:46Son, what I am about to tell you, always remember it.
02:50Then you will be successful in whatever you do in life.
02:53If you always make comfortable choices,
02:56then you will not be able to grow as you can.
02:59If you are ready to face this world,
03:02despite all the dangers,
03:04then no goal is impossible for you to achieve.
03:08Never think of problems as hurdles,
03:11but think of them as steps towards success.
03:14Boy took a long breath and stared at the tree,
03:18and he understood his grandpa's words.
03:21Obstacles which we consider enemies in life,
03:24the same obstacles make us stronger
03:27and more successful in life.
03:29Similarly, our life is like a great adventure
03:34filled with twists and turns
03:36that might seem like obstacles blocking our path.
03:39But guess what?
03:42These obstacles are like puzzles waiting to be solved.
03:46Just think about it.

03:50the fun part is figuring out how to overcome challenges.
