They rounded up three goats from the neighborhood and painted numbers 1,2 & 4 on their sides.
That night they let the goats loose
inside their school building.
The next morning, when the authorities entered the school, they could smell something was wrong.
They soon saw goat droppings
on the stairs and near the entrance
and realized that some goats had
entered the building
A search was immediately launched
and very soon, the three goats were found
But the authorities were worried,
where was goat 3?
They spent the rest of the day
looking for goat No.3.
The school declared classes off for the students for the rest of the day.
The teachers, helpers, guards,
canteen staffs, boys were all busy
looking for the goat No. 3,
which, of course, was never to be found.
They never found it Simply because
it did not exist
Those among us who inspite of having a #GoodLife are always feeling a #LackOfFulfillment are actually looking for the elusive,
missing & non-existent Goat No.3
Whatever the area of complaint or dissatisfaction, relationship,
job-satisfaction, finance or achievements; an absence of something is always larger than the
presence of many other things ..
This story does have few key learnings ..
✅Let's Stop worrying about goat No 3 and enjoy life
✅Life would be so much happier
without the worries
✅We shouldn’t let the non existent imaginary goat number 3 waste our time & happiness
✅Enjoy life with WHATEVER WE HAVE

We spend the best years of our lives waiting for a #Miracle when the miracle is #Life itself
We wait for approval,we wait for promotion,we wait for the bonus,we wait for freedom,we wait for a revelation AND in all this,we forget to live
Today, I make this promise to myself. No more waiting. I will live each day like it was the last day of my life. And I will live each day like it is the first day of the rest of my life with no regrets of the day that was..
I will be #Courageous.
Not courageous like a #Soldier under fire, but courageous enough to not wait. Courageous enough to #Live every moment to the hilt.
#Courageous enough to know that the only losses I should fear are the loss of #Love and #Respect, for myself & for those around me.

#TooGoodNotToShare ... #Rule72
What is Rule 72?
In personal finance, if you divide the number 72 by the rate of interest, you get to know the number of years it will take for you to double the money..
Eg: if the rate of interest is 9%, simply divide the number 72 by 9 and the answer is 8. Thus it will take 8 years to double your money if you invest at 9% p.a. rate of interest.
#INTEREST
We can use this rule in reverse to know the rate of interest needed to double your money to achieve your set goal.
