THE TARGET

There is martial art in Japan. We call it “ZEN”. In the ZEN Literature the teacher is known as “ZEN Master”. This story is also linked to the same. A very young student of martial art approached his ZEN Master. He had an eagerness know how soon he will be an expert of this martial art. He asked his master, “If I will work with full concentration how fast can I also become ZEN Master?” The ZEN Master thought for a moment as to why this boy is asking such a question and soon he understood the motive behind. He answered after a well thought, “Ten years.”

The boy thought this period is too long. There should be solution to reduce this time period. So he again asked, “ If I work very hard and try to learn very fast, then how much time will it take?”

ZEN Master smiled. “Twenty years”. The boy was surprised to see the increasing period. He posed the question again with more force, “ If I really work hard, day and night, then how much time will it take?” ZEN Master became little serious and replied, “Thirty years”.
“Thirty years”. The boy got disappointed after listening to it. He asked ZEN Master, “ But sir, I fail to understand, why the time period is increasing even if I am ready to put in more hard work and effort?” Then ZEN Master replied with a smile, “ Son, your one eye is still on the achievement of the target. And you will be only working with your one eye.

MORALE:

IF YOU WILL WORK HARD WITH YOUR FULL CONCENTRATION THE TARGET WILL FOLLOW YOU.

Mr. Shottang was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, "Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like".

The Lord led Shottang to two doors.

He opened one of the doors and Shottang looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew which smelled delicious and made Shottang’s mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful, but because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. Shottang shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. The Lord said, "You have seen Hell."

They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made Shottang’s mouth water. The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. Shottang said, "I don't understand". "It is simple" said the Lord, "it requires only one skill. You see, they have learned to feed each other. While the greedy think only of them."

Moral: Its people's attitude that makes our place of work, a hell or heaven to them!! 'Help and Seek Help' this makes all the difference to each individual's life...and makes our lives hell or otherwise.

Success and happiness is all about effective team-work which makes a work place a great place to work.
