Today I bring you two educational stories. I hope you will like both the stories.
The touch of greedy King Midas
The greedy king Midas had a lot of wealth. But there was a desire to have more than what was. He kept a lot of gold in his treasury. And every day he sat and counted the accumulated gold. One day, while sitting in the treasury, a stranger suddenly appeared and said, "He wants to give a boon." The king was happy and said, "Then give this boon, everything I touch will turn to gold." The visitor asked, "You really want this boon?" "Yes," said the king. Then the visitor said, "Tomorrow morning in the light of the sun you will have the power to turn gold by touch. The king thought he was dreaming. This could not be true. But the next day when he touched the bed, clothes and other things, they turned to gold." Looking through the window, he thought he would show his daughter a surprise. But he couldn't read the book as soon as he touched it sat for, but whenever he touched the water or the water pot, it turned into gold. The hungry king thought to himself, I can't eat or drink any more gold. Just then his daughter came and embraced her father, and immediately the girl became a golden image Then there was no longer a smile on the king's face. The stranger reappeared and asked the king, "Is the king pleased with the power of turning into gold?" There are no more miserable people." The visitor asked, "What do you want now? Your food, dear daughter, or the golden plate and golden idol of the daughter?" The king yearned for forgiveness, crying. He said, "I will give away all my gold because if I lose my daughter, my life will have no meaning." The stranger said to the king, "Before You have become wise." Saying this he withdrew the magic power. The king got his daughter back and learned a lesson he would never forget in his life.
the truth
Nothing in this universe is permanent. As there is creation, there is destruction. This moon, sun, planet, star is on its way to destruction just as it was created. The world is also moving towards destruction. One by one this entire universe is moving towards destruction. That is the truth. Truth always happens. What happened in the past really happened. What is happening now is really happening. What happens in the future will actually happen. Sometimes lies are used to suppress the truth. But basically that is what is happening. So accept what is true. Truth never lies. Even if the truth sounds bad, it is true. Everything we see around us is real. Lies have no place. Lies are temporary. Truly eternal. As creation is true, destruction is true. Just as birth is true, death is true. The whole universe depends on these two truths. Every living being in the world, whether he accepts any truth or not, understands and has to accept these two truths. Coming to earth for a few days. No one has ever come to earth and stayed. All those who came before have to leave, those who are present will also leave, those who will come in the future will also leave. That is the truth.

Why Creative Thinking is the Catalyst for Higher Productivity
In many professional settings, creativity and productivity are often seen as separate, even conflicting, concepts. Productivity is typically associated with structure, deadlines, and measurable output, while creativity is considered unstructured, unpredictable, and harder to quantify. But this outdated thinking overlooks a critical truth: a creative mindset is a powerful driver of productivity.
