Looking in the Mirror

One morning, all the employees arrived at the office and saw a notice on the front door. It said:

"Yesterday, the person who was holding you back from growing in this company passed away. A funeral has been arranged in the gym. You are invited to attend."

Everyone was shocked and felt a little sad. But soon, curiosity took over.
Who was this person? Who was stopping my progress? they wondered. Slowly, they all headed to the gym.

As more and more people gathered, the excitement grew. Security was even called in to manage the crowd.
One by one, employees approached the coffin, eager to see who it was.

But when they looked inside, each person went quiet. They were speechless.
Inside the coffin was a mirror. And next to it was a sign:

“The only person who can stop you from growing… is YOU.”

Everyone who looked into the mirror saw their own reflection. That moment made them realize something important.

Your success, your happiness, your progress—none of it depends on others. It depends on you.

Your life doesn’t change just because your boss changes, or your friends, or your job.
Your life changes when you change—when you stop blaming others and take control of your own actions and mindset.

“The most important relationship is the one you have with yourself.”

Moral:
The world reflects back what you believe and feel inside. If you believe in yourself, take responsibility, and face life with courage, success and happiness will follow. The mirror is not your enemy—it’s your reminder that the power to grow is already within you.

The doctors told his mother that the boy's lower body was badly burned and he might not survive. But the boy was brave. He refused to give up. To the surprise of the doctors, he survived. Later, the doctors told his mother that even though he lived, he would never walk again. His legs were too damaged. But the boy didn’t accept that. He was determined. Even though he couldn’t move his legs and had no feeling in them, he kept believing that one day, he would walk again. His mother helped him every day by massaging his legs. At first, there was no change. But the boy didn’t stop trying. One sunny day, his ...
