Beauty In - OutThe secret of Beauty is in the simple things....
Sunday, June 14EGO .. Kills You
There was once a learned scientist..
After a lot of practice and efforts, he developed a formula and learned the art of reproducing himself. He did it so perfectly that it was impossible to tell the reproduction from the original.
One day while doing his research, he realized that the Angel of Death was searching for him. In order to remain immortal he reproduced a dozen copies of himself. Thereproduction was so meticulous that all of them looked exactly likehim. Now when this Angel of Death came down, he was at a loss to knowwhich of the thirteen before him was the original scientist, andconfused, he left them all alone and returned back to heaven.
But,not for long, for being an expert in human nature, the Angel came upwith a clever idea. He said to the scientist addressing all thirteen ofthem, "Sir, you must be a genius to have succeeded in making such perfect reproduction formula of yourself. However, I have discovered a flaw in your work, just one tiny little flaw."
The scientist immediately jumped out and shouted, Impossible! where is the flaw?" "Right here" said the Angel, as he picked up the scientist from among the reproductions and carried him off.
The whole purpose of the scientist and his formula of reproduction failed as he could not control his pride and lost his life.
Sowhile one’s Knowledge and Skills takes one to the top of the ladder andmakes one successful, however the three letter word "EGO" can pull onedown immediately.
