Vegetables or Ice-cream?

 

I know what just came to your mind reading this blog, ‘Another blog with food in it?’

Well, not this one!

What if I ask you, ‘Vegetables or Ice-cream? What will you choose?’

If your answer is vegetables, I must appreciate your understanding and maturity!

If your answer is ice-cream, then you might want to give it a thought.

This is my all-time favorite question, because it goes beyond logic for me.

In words of famous management professor Shri Kumar Roa, it’s a ‘Vegetable Moment’!

Let me explain!

Many a times in our life, we are stuck at these decisions where we need to choose. This choice is very difficult for us because on one side we have something that we want, we desire and on the other side we have something which we don’t, for an instance, want but we know that it’s the right thing to do.

 

Isn’t it similar to our childhood days?

  I mean we knew vegetables are good for our health and our parents left no chance to make us eat it. But, on the other hand we used to crave on this junk food like pizzas, burgers and what not (many of us do it even now).

Back then, we were kids and we wouldn’t have that kind of maturity to choose the best for ourselves.

But what about now?

If you are stuck in this vegetable moment what do you choose?

You choose what you WANT or you choose what you really NEED?

Your VEGETABLES might not be something that you like but you know that’ll surely benefit you in your future.

For example, consider your Heart-Break as Spinach, your Rejection as Fenugreek.

You don’t necessarily love these experiences but they teach you a lot of important lessons in your life.

You define your boundaries, your values and virtues over these life experiences, that is why they are so important in your life because they become the reason for future successes.

These VEGETABLE moments shape you into the person you are today. They make you value what you have.

So, the next time you get caught up in such a VEGETABLE moment, you’ll know what to choose.

When you choose these VEGETABLES over ICE-CREAM, you love yourself one percent more than before, you value yourself one percent more than before.

Isn’t that important, that at the end of the day you feel good about yourselves, you feel slightly more confident than before.

These small steps makes it easy for us to achieve our dream life and be a person better than you were before.

So be aware in your life to catch yourself in this vegetable moment and know that it’s all for you to get good at life!

On that note, let’s meet on next Sunday with another amazing blog.

Thankyou!
