Wood cutter and axe

Long long ago a poor man was living in a village. He was living in a hut by the site of a river near hill. He was happy .....


Once he went to town to earn more money. He was not educated so could not get good job. By the evening he reached near a saw mill. He requested saw mill owner to give him a job. The owner was a good person and said that he will give the poor person a job. Next morning the owner gave the poor person an axe and asked to cut tree. The poor person went to near by jungle and cut 15 trees. That day the wood cutter got 50 rupees. Next day the wood cutter planned to cut more tree and earn more. Alas! he could cut only 12 trees. The following day wood cutter could only cut 10 trees.

Wood cutter was very disappointed on his performance.He met Baidji (Ayrvedic doctor) to get any medicine which might increase his performance. Baidji examined the wood cutter and found no illness. Then Baidji listened story of wood cutter. Then Baidji found the solution for wood cutter. Baidji told wood cutter that every day he need to sharpen his axe to get consistent and better result.

Similarly, now-a-days we need to update our knowledge to perform better in this hi-tech world.
