CHANGE .... an Inside-Out Job


On a Sunday morning , as I drove into the my office parking lot, I knew I am going to have the luxury of parking where ever I wanted to and so I chose the spot close to the lift and got out. Just two slots beside stood a brand new Hyundai Creta with a dent on the pillion riders door..I knew it was my colleague's 3 month old SUV.

I enter the office and walked to him .. and with all curiosity asked him what had happened to his car.. and in minutes I realized I had pressed a wrong button..

I spent the next 15-20 listening to  how a rough two wheeler jumping a traffic light bumped into his car and how he will have to bear the cost.

Sitting at my desk .I wondered... Just last week I saw the same colleague jump not one but two traffic lights to drop is 11 year daughter and son twins to school on his pulsar. Why was he complaining today.. I felt like reminding him of what he does ..may be so often.. People in Pune are not going to change their habits.. he kept lamenting..

I felt like .. He has to change first before he can expect others to change... practice what you are preaching today ..

If you stop jumping the traffic light you will see many more following you... and many many many more still opting to jump .. so you cannot change the world .. but you  can change .. for sure!!!!

Be it's throwing trash on the road .. jumping a traffic light.. inculcating a good habit at home or at work ..

CHANGE BEGINS WITH THE PERSON WHO WANTS A CHANGE...!!!! 

 IT'S AN INSIDE-OUT JOB
