How To Overcome Laziness And Become Disciplined | Buddhist Wisdom Story On Laziness|

once upon a time in a small village at the foot of a mountain there lived a Young Man known for his laziness while other villagers worked hard in the fields and workshops he spent his days lying under a tree napping and daydreaming one day a wise mon came to the Village whenever he went to ask for arms he saw the young man sleeping under the same tree one day the monk approached him and asked why do you lie here all the time why don't you work in the fields the young man replied casually oh let

me sleep working in the fields is hard I can't do that he laid back down uninterested seeing the young man's laziness the monk asked do you want to become rich this ignited the young man's interest he sat up and said yes of course can you make me reach the monk smiled and pointed to the mountain and said behind that mountain there is a cave in which there is a Precious Diamond if you can find it you will be Rich Forever the young man was intrigued but hesitant he said but it is difficult to climb the

mountain the monk replied if you can't even do this then leave it he began to leave but the young man stopped him and said wait I will go there are you telling the truth the monk assured him and want but the cave is on the other side of the mountain so it is not easy to reach there but the young man was excited after knowing about Diamond he set off his journey and started climbing Mountain The Climb was tough and he quickly became tired but a cool breeze and the thought of the diamond kept him

going after a long struggle he reached the top he was amazed by the breathtaking view there he felt a sense of accomplishment now it was time to descent and The Descent was even more challenging and dangerous he stumbled and fell many times but kept going driven by the promise of the diamond finally he reached the cave but it was empty there was no diamond he searched again and again but the same result there was no diamond he became disappointed he wondered why the monk had done this to him now he had to return but he

no longer had the courage to climb the mountain again for a moment he considered giving up on going back and just staying where he was but he knew he cannot survive here for a long so despite tiredness he gathered his courage and started the return Journey after much struggle he made it back to the village and went straight back to the monk the mon greeted him with a smile and said oh you have come back angry and Confused the young boy said why did you lie to me there was no diamond in the cave the

monk looked at him with kindness and said but I think you have found it the young man was confused the mon continued my dear friend you have found the diamond of diligence before going you were too lazy to even work in the fields but now you have climbed a mountain and returned now you have become diligent and agile and this is the true diamond with it you can achieve anything in your life upon hearing this the young man realized that the monk was right he had always been capable of achieving great things but his laziness

had held him back now he understood that he possessed the diamond of diligence and with this new form from diligence and determination he could overcome any obstacle in his path from that day onwards he began working in his Fields with dedication and hard work if we see in our lives we will find that we often encounter laziness and procrastination and this story beautifully explains the reason behind them the primary cause of laziness is a lack of motivation people become lazy when they lack a clear purpose or goal in their life in the story the young

man was initially lazy however when the M told him about the diamond he was motivated to find it similarly when we lack goal in our life we feel demotivated and become lazy but having a goal and a strong desire to achieve it can make our laziness disappear driving us to work towards our objectives another reason for laziness is having easy Alternatives the young man was comfortable in his village because he had easy access to food and shelter but when he ventured beyond the mountain he realized that he could not survive there for a long without

effort this lack of Alternatives forced him to act and come back in our lives we often fail fa to push ourselves if we have easy options by putting ourselves in situations where success is the only option we can eliminate laziness and become more determined the third reason for laziness is not recognizing our abilities the young man never believed he could climb the mountain and return when he accomplished this his confidence grew and he realized his potential this shows that we all have hidden capabilities but we fail to discover it due to laziness and procrastination once

we start believing in ourselves we can achieve anything diligence as shown in the story is crucial for personal growth and success it is the consistent effort to accomplish task even when they are difficult or tiresome diligence has ability to turn potential into reality it helps us build skills achieve our dreams and lead a fulfilling life laziness is not something to accept or tolerate it is a challenge to overcome and a hurdle to leap over by embracing diligence and setting ambitious goals we can push ourselves to achieve our dreams even when they seem impossible so let

us rise above laziness hardness our inner potential and embark on the journey towards a fulfilling and successful life knowing that the true Diamond lies within our unwavering determination and hard work [Music]
