🌌 The Paradigm Shift 🌌

in #life7 years ago

Most of the time, when faced with reality, we couldn't undoubtedly or promptly surrender our firm convictions. We find it hard to change our perspectives in an instant if we are not enlightened.

Let me share to you this classic story:

Once there was a navy battleship assigned to a preparation squadron. The battleship has been moving adrift for a few days as of now and is battling against terrible climate.

As the night fell, the captain positioned a crew at the foot of the bridge to keep watch. The visibility was poor so the captain himself watched out on all the activities.

All of a sudden, a post situated at the wing of the scaffold shouted out, "Light bearing on the starboard bow!"

"Is it steady or not?" the Captain asked. "Steady, Captain," the post answered. That implies that they are near a collision course with the other ship.

The Captain said, "Signal that ship: We are in a nearby crash, I'm telling you to steer 30 degrees!

Signal came back, "I advise you to steer 30 degrees.

The Captain said, "Send: I'm a Captain. I'm telling you to steer 30 degrees!

"I'm a Lieutenant". "You better steer 30 degrees.

The Captain, cannot remain calm any longer, ordered, "Send: We are conveying a war vessel! Steer 30 degrees instantly!

Light came back saying, "I'm a lighthouse."

Right then and there, the battleship steered away.

Like the battleship's captain who stands firm in his orders but gave way when warned, we should be adaptable to change.

In life, we always have a choice. Like water, we must be adaptable with unexpected circumstances.

Change is the foundation of growth. We have to change our own paradigm for the better course of our life.

"Be formless, shapeless, like water... You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup; you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle; you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot... Now water can flow, or it can crash, be water my friend."

Paradigms are what shape our lives, they are our subconcious, we should shape them for the good. ;-)

I'll take note of that. Thanks!
