Experiences and YOU

Have you ever wondered why you always have bad experiences ? Why you face all the problems in the world ? Have you not ever asked this question "Why ME ?" .why do I have these people around me ? Even I have wondered about that. But I have come to feel that the experiences we go through, the problems that come our way are only a means to grow ourselves ! we need these to grow, these are our weaklinks.
When I was working with children at Geniekids, my mentor used to ask me, were there any conflicts, disturbances in the classroom ? He used to stress more on the points were people had problems rather on people whose sessions went smooth. What he said was, if the session went on smoothly, then there is no learning for you and the children (New learning). on the other hand if there are conflicts, and you were able to steer their thinking in terms of resolving the conflict then there could possibly be great learnings. How true ?

So finally what is growth ? How do you define Your Growth ? For me Growth would be when I am stable inspite of several external triggers . When I am balanced both emotionally and mentally in all situations. When I can look at situations objectively more than subjectively.

Thats what we need to work towards. Afterall all the degrees and education doesn't contribute to your growth. You grow only when you reflect on your own experiences and learn from them.
