Take it...
A wise man once sat in the audience & cracked a joke.
All laughed like crazy.
All laughed like crazy.
After a moment he cracked the same joke again and a little less people laughed this time.
He cracked the same joke again & again, When there was no laughter in the crowd, he smiled and said:
"When you can't laugh on the same joke again & again, then why do you keep crying over the same thing over and over again?"

We will not fuel our children here with ambition; we will fuel them with aspiration. One is for acquisition; ambition means more houses, better cars, walk-in refrigerators, things like that. Aspiration is for excellence, without thinking of reward.

'What' - the mind or the intellect will tell you.
'How' involves ethics, morality, principles of life, and that the heart must tell you.
In modern education, the head is important, the heart is forgotten.
