Is it right to Pinpoint the mistakes done by others.

Suppose your wife or kid or friend or colleague or subordinate does a mistake and you are very sure that this mistake needs to be pinpointed to them and make them realise that it is a mistake, will you directly go and pinpoint to them. If yes then you are wrong coz they might feel low in those circumstances coz they might have done inadvertently or they dont know that it is a mistake at all. So in such cases you might ask what is best way to realise that they have committed a mistake. Solution : Make them realise by setting yourself as a role model in the long run or tell to them in such a way that they has to realise their mistake as well as dont get hurt.

Let me tell you a story. In the OLD myth, Sridevi and Moodevi were fighting with each other to know Who is beautiful in this world. At that time NARATHA came through the way so they both asked him to give a verdict. Naratha got perplexed and he sweated coz he has been put up in a difficult situation. If he tells Sridevi is beautiful then Moodevi will stay in his house and give problems whereas if he tells Moodevi is beautiful then Sridevi will go away from his house. So he thought for a while and asked both of them to walk for a while.

Now he gave the following verdict : Sridevi looks very beautiful when she arrives whereas Moodevi looks beautiful when she goes away. Both of them got convinced with this reply and went away with Joy.

In this story who has won, a. Sridevi - No b. Moodevi - No. It is actually Naradha coz of his wise reply.

I explained to this to my friend and he tried this mantra at home. He came and told me this "My wife doesnt wash the clothes or clean the house so i set myself as a role model washed the clothes and cleaned the house for a week. The following week my wife came and told me happily "i dont know these years that you are a best dhobi and housekeeper so the forthcomin years also please continue". What i have to do now."
