Once upon a time, in a small village, there lived a man named Ramesh. He was known for his extreme politeness and never missed an opportunity to be courteous to others. He would always speak softly and politely, even in situations where it was not necessary.
One day, Ramesh was walking down the street, and he saw a group of children playing. He greeted them with a polite smile and asked if he could join their game. The children were surprised but agreed to let him play. As they started playing, Ramesh continued to be extremely polite, even when the game required him to be competitive.
During the game, Ramesh missed several opportunities to score points because he didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. He kept apologizing for his mistakes and kept encouraging the other players. The children soon became frustrated and started to lose interest in the game.
After the game, Ramesh realized his mistake. He understood that being too polite can sometimes be harmful, especially in situations where it’s necessary to assert oneself. He realized that his excessive politeness was preventing him from playing the game to the best of his ability.
From that day on, Ramesh decided to be more confident and expressive when it was necessary. He still continued to be polite, but he also knew when to be assertive and take charge.
| The moral of the story is that too much of anything can be harmful, including politeness. While it’s important to be courteous and respectful towards others, it’s also important to know when to be assertive and take charge in certain situations. |
