The Panda Analogy

Pandas, cute, cuddly, fluffy and utterly stupid! Who doesn't like them! Remember the Sneezing Baby Panda (You can see it here if you haven't), it got more views on YouTube than Justine Bieber's song. I wonder what would have happened if they sang. Alright, I went a bit off-track there, my apologies.

Now, of-course I am no expert on animals or on Pandas for a fact, but, as an entrepreneur, I regularly have to fathom the anatomy of animal related jargon's used every now and then to inspire us. For instance,

"To be the winning horse, one must follow the cockroach approach to beat the elephant in the room, only then you are destined to become a unicorn."

When you read the statement above, it does nothing more than tinkling your subconscious senses to scratch your head and wonder what the person meant to say. Now, who are we to question the knowledge & expertise of those mentors or gurus! But, we aren't here to talk about them, neither we want to bother the poor cockroach or the imaginary unicorn, but, the cute, cuddly, fluffy and utterly stupid Pandas! While I do not have any fetish for Panda videos but I do get to see some every now and then on the wonderful world of internet, and believe me you, they are friggin hilarious! And after watching a number of Panda videos, here 5 things that I observed & think we should follow in our lives:

1. STAY RELAXED: The Pandas know how to relax and take a chill-pill. We should not get all worked out so often, but try to relax as much as possible. It helps you be sane, think straight and avoid mistakes.

2. EAT WELL: Often, we ignore what we eat and gobble up something just to fill our stomach. A healthy diet is extremely important for your well-being. It's provide your body with energy to do more when it is needed and not make you feel tired.

3. MAKE TIME FOR YOUR HOBBIES: All of us a hobby that helps us wind down from the stress and rejuvenate ourselves. It can be anything, listening to music, reading a book, playing with your dog, or simply taking a stroll in a park. It helps you appreciate life and have a positive outlook towards everything.

4. SPEND TIME WITH YOUR FAMILY: This is one of the most important things we should take care of, which, unfortunately, we ignore the most. It is your family who would stand beside you, hold your hand and support you in every step of your life. Keep them close.

5. SMILE & BE HAPPY: Never underestimate the power of a beautiful smile and a happy personality. People love happy people and prefer to work with them more than anybody else. It establishes trust, encourages people and make a very positive on those around you.
