Always know your objective first.

Yesterday I happened to come across this forward mail which I thot of placing in my blogspot. The content in it made me think. It actually made me realize what flaw I was making most of the time which used to land me in trouble. Not only me this is a common mistake most of us do.
Ill place a copy of it :

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director, "what is the criteria that defines a patient to be institutionalized? " "Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the patient to empty the bathtub."
1. Would you use the spoon?
2. Would you use the teacup?
3. Would you use the bucket?
Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket as it is larger than the spoon." No," answered the Director. "A normal person would pull the drain plug." He flunked..... ..... There is a difference between an objective and actions! Unless you understand your objective, you will be wasting your time in your actions.

Always know your objective first.

Cheers!!!
