Hard work has its own reward
Wise people say: ‘Hard work has its own reward.’ Mukesh’s story is a perfect example of the axiom. He was a teenager boy, a perfect model of the modern generation whose chief purpose is to have fun and shirk responsibilities. He was an average student studying in ninth standard. His grades on the report card did not augur well. The highest was C2. His parents and teachers always expected more from him. Most of his time passed playing, frolicking and loafing around.
As time and tide wait for none, SA 1 examinations loomed large! Mukesh felt first time in his life the burden and nervousness of not being prepared to take the exams. However, he had no option! Only 10 days were at his disposal. He decided to do his best! The mountain of accumulated work cannot be climbed easily! He realized it was impossible for him to do all the study and revision. He just managed to scrape through the SA1 exam with CGPA 5.
He felt so embarrassed and ashamed of his negligent attitude to study. He had never wanted to score low grades. He had never thought that not studying would mean low grades and embarrassment. He had thought having fun most of the time would not affect his studies. He decided to turn a new leaf.
He promised to himself he would work very hard to improve his grades. He just followed the basics. He did not waste his single moment in useless distractions. He just studied, studied, and studied. He made a time table, and conscientiously stuck to it. He burnt not only the midnight oil, but the early morning oil also. At school he stayed focused all the time. He did not watch TV at all. Thus working he realized, if a student utilizes his time optimally, he can do wonders. TV, friends, and loafing around are the greatest enemies of all the students. He realized studies are not difficult at all; developing the right attitude to studies, and focusing our mind on studies is difficult. Hard work really pays off and that too with huge dividends. Not only he improved his knowledge, he secured A1 in all the subjects in SA2 Exams. His parents, teachers, and everyone was so happy. He was the happiest of all. This happiness of hard-earned achievement was thousand times sweeter than the shallow pleasures of distractions.
Thus Mukesh’s hard work paid off. Not only he achieved success because of hard work, but he also learnt the valuable lesson of time-management and self-discipline.
The swings went up the sky and came down to the earth. Again it went up and down it came. Again and again and again! Rohan and Rani loved coming to their Grandpa's house.
Grandpa came to them with a beaming smile.
They sat under the mango tree and Grandpa began, "Well children, this mango tree on which I tried the swings for you, was the first plant that I planted on this farm. I dug a pit in the soil and planted the sapling. I watered it everyday and watched it grow."
"Slowly its roots went deep into the soil and its trunk became strong. Then many branches grew and there were lots of leaves. As the years went by, it grew into a big tree. The birds sat on the trees and chirped merrily. The workers rested under its shade in the hot afternoons.Your mother, aunts and uncles played under this mango tree."
"And one fine day, many years ago, I saw the first mango on this mango tree. I was excited and I came every day to look at the first manho. Then I saw another mango and another and another. I looked up and saw that the trees was full of mangoes. That year I got hundreds of sweet mangoes from my mango tree. I hugged my mango tree and said, "Thank you for the sweet mangoes." After that, every year this dear mango tree has given me sweet mangoes."
"Dear children, trees are our lifetime savings. They serve us continuously. They give wood to make houses, shade to rest and fruits to eat. But today, we are cutting down the trees. We should stop this because if there are no trees, we will not have wood, shade and fruits. So, we have to save our trees, for trees are our friends!. "
As Grandpa stopped talking, there came Grandma with a bowl full of sweet mangoes.
