        Message for the day 10-05-2013
        ----------------------------------------------------------
        
        The one who transforms oneself is the one who is victorious. 
        
        
        Projection: When in a discussion or debate with someone, we usually want
        to have the last word. We want the others to understand us. When we succeed in this
        we feel we are a winner. But we find that neither is the other person satisfied
        with us nor are we able to learn anything new.
        
        
        Solution: In order to be a winner in all situations, we need to pay special
        attention to keep learning from each situation. We need to see in what aspect we
        can bring about transformation in ourselves instead of trying to prove ourselves
        right. This will make us truly victorious.
