Now, he was looking so energetic, fresh and young.
It looks Like as if he became ten years younger than his actual age. John asked the reason behind all this change to Julian. To which Julian replied that after the heart attack, he was so shocked and he decided to change his life no matter what. So, firstly he decided to sell everything which is making him stressed like home, jet, Ferrari, like everything and then he went to India in Himalayas as he heard from someone that there are few monks in Himalayas who were very much who are very much intelligent and they know the actual secret of life.
These monks knew how to lead a peaceful life and stay happy.
So, to know these secrets he also went there and suddenly one day he got to know all the secrets. On this John said that please tell me also those secrets so that he can also change his life. Now Julian started his story that after heart attack when Julian went to India. So, Julian started living in small village in Himalayas and started searching for the monks everywhere.
After some time he met one monk there and shared his problems with that monk.
This monk said that he will give few principles to Julian only when if Julian promised that he will share these principle with the outer world also with his family, friends or whosoever Julian wants to but he have to share those principles with others also. Julian got agreed to this now monk started to give few principles through a Story. He told Julian to imagine that you are sitting in a garden full of beautiful flowers, trees and birds are chirping around there is amazing fragrance around and you are enjoying the nature a lot and suddenly you notice that there is a lighthouse in the corner of the garden and suddenly the door of the lighthouse opens and you see a sumo wrestler coming out of the lighthouse. Sumo wrestler is actually naked almost and he is just wearing an underwear made up of a thin wire.
The color of the underwear is pink.
He wanders around and found a shiny golden watch there in a garden. He moved towards the watch and he suddenly falls on the ground and got motionless. After some time sumo wrestlers get backs to his senses due to that fascinating fragrance of the garden and he looked towards his left.
On his left there was a path full of diamonds which led to a place where sumo wrestler can find all the happiness in life. He starts walking on that path and soon gets out of the sight and the story ended here. After this Julien laughed at this, as this is no story. This story made no sense to him. To this monk replied that this is not an ordinary story. This story has seven biggest principles of life and then he went on and started explaining the story.

So, the first principle monk said is related to the garden.
The garden symbolizes our brain. If you sow good seeds, you will automatically get fresh fruits on trees but if you put useless things as like that of a garbage or stop watering it or you stop taking care of it then it will turn into a dump similarly if you flood your brain with good and positive thoughts and motivate yourself then you will convert your garden into a good thoughts.
By doing this you will get the peace of mind and if you think negative like if you do a vice versa then it will turn into a garbage dump. As we all have heard the statement that empty mind is devil’s workshop. So, you are responsible for your mind either make it a positive and good thought one or make it a bad one.
Now the second principle is related to the lighthouse which symbolizes your goals in your life.
Lighthouse we all know basically gives the direction to the ships similarly we should also choose our paths in life. We need to set some goals. We need to set some destination then only we will work for it and reach that goal. Do whatever it takes to make those dreams come true and as hard work pays off so one day if you will work on it so you will obviously reach your destination. The third principle now is related to sumo wrestler which symbolizes Kaizen. The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma
Kaizen is a Japanese word which means continuous improvement.
As sumo wrestler needs to work on himself with good diet and exercise to be fit and attain a good physique. We also need to work on your skills and things every day as sumo wrestler needs as no one is perfect everyone needs improvement. The fourth principle is related to the underwear of the wrestler, it depicts Boundaries. The size of the underwear is so small but without that underwear he will be naked. Similarly we should also maintain our self control and discipline in life in the same way. Both of them are very important, you should follow your schedule you should follow your time and all the little things you need to maintain.
These small things will bring a change in your life.
You will not get all these points in the short period of time but if you see in a long run they will be bring a disastrous change in your life that you will notice. The fifth principle is related the golden watch that the sumo wrestler find in the garden which symbolizes the value of the time which is gold. You only have 24 hours in an entire day so the successful people also do have same time but how to utilize or how you are utilizing your time is the most important thing. We the people of today’s generation we just procrastinate things on tomorrow whatever we need to do today we just procrastinate to tomorrow and that’s bad we should utilize our time nicely it’s a golden opportunity for us.
For being successful we have to manage it nicely.
Every successful person do this that’s why he is successful today. There is no any other secret left so this was a fifth principle. Now, the sixth principle is related to that roses. The fragrance of roses which symbolizes social cause means helping others. Suppose, I am gifting flowers to one of my friend. So, when I am gonna gift them or when I am gonna hand over those flowers to him or her then the fragrance of those roses will also left in my hand So,
this means that you should help others it will make you happy itself Also. It’s not that you should do charity things or you should open an NGO or other things but you can do this by helping others in a little way like anything if you can do for someone you should. By doing this you will feel sorted, satisfied and priceless.
You will be happy by helping others.
You will be sorted that yes, I did something good for someone. So, the last principle is seventh principle, which is related to that diamond path or the diamonds. Diamond symbolizes moment of happiness which comes in our life. By this in real life it means our present lives. we always found ourselves disturbed due to past life or always worrying about the future that what next but we never enjoy our present. We forgot to live in the present somehow. Learn to live in present life and forget all the worries for a while.
