48. DON’T FISH FOR THEM

 

I believe you must have heard the saying 'if you give a man fish, you feed him for a day but if you teach him how to fish, you feed him forever'.

There are some persons around you who have made up their minds not to learn how to fish but depend fully on you. These persons are just there to take from you without working for themselves, you do not need these set of persons in your life. Don't fish for them.

There is no need helping people who do not want to help themselves. You cannot continue to spend your resources on people who are not ready to work for themselves.

Teach them how to fish but do not fish for them.
