I bought two self-help books this month, one is "Atomic Habits" mentioned in the article, and another is "I Took the Only Path To See You". There is one insightful short story about "The Tale of The Two Wolves" right after the Table of Contents of the latter book: "One evening, an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My Son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all." "One is Evil. It's anger, envy, jealousy, doubt, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.” “The other is Good. It's joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, forgiveness, truth, compassion, and faith." The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: “Which wolf wins?" The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.” |
