Thanks and welcome to my blog, this article is meant for those who are willing to work smart, not hard and ready to be among the top people

THE STORY OF THE FLY IN THE ROOM
Some time ago, I read a beautiful story of Mookie the hard working fly, Mookie was hitting against the glass of a closed window, trying to get out of a room into the beautiful world outside.
It could see a lot of other flies outside enjoying complete freedom; Mookie was so desperate to become free, that it tried harder and harder to break through the glass.
The whining wings were telling the poignant story of the Mookie’s strategy –“try harder”. But trying harder was not working.
Mookie believed that going through the window was the only way to get to the land of dreams. But no matter what, it was impossible for it to try enough to achieve that break-through.

Mookie was doomed. if it continued doing what it was doing, it would die a sad death on the window sill.
Across the room, just a few feet away, there was an open door, completely open. Just a few seconds of flying time could get Mookie what it wanted- FREEDOM

Mookie did not even try to look for that door; Just a shift in thoughts could have easily given our friend the freedom it so badly desired.

But why am I telling you this story? Because most of us are like Mookie, we keep hitting the window, but we never try to look for the door and sadly we may never achieve the freedom that we wanted.
It may be impossible for us to be part of the elite group and enjoy the beautiful life styles we had wanted to enjoy.
But why won’t most people succeed? Because they won’t do the things that successful people do, they don’t think the way an achiever’s will think.
