In today’s challenging times it is extremely important to be both talented and resourceful. No matter in which situation you are, you continuously need to be upgrading your skills and training, so as to be able to get out of it, to your advantage.
Let me draw out an analogy to explain what I’m intending to say. There was once a villager who didn’t know swimming. In the peak of monsoon when his village got flooded and he was very close to drowning. He somehow managed to climb a tree and sit on one of its branches. And, as he was taking a sigh of relief, a bird came and sat on the neighbouring branch. Now both, the villager and the bird were sitting on the same tree.
But imagine the unfortunate situation, where, if the branch of the tree snaps or breaks for some reason. What will happen then? The answer is very obvious. The villager will fall into the flooding, and will die because he cannot swim whereas, the bird will take to its wings and fly-off.
The bird can save itself because it knows the skill of flying. The villager on the contrary hasn’t learned the skill of swimming so he runs the risk of losing his life. Life is very tricky and full of surprises. There is no end to skill and talent building. The villager and the bird only tell us that.
