Five Thoughts from Chanakya

1.A person should not be too honest. Straight trees are cut first and honest people are screwed first.

2.Even if a snake is not poisonous, it should pretend to be venomous.

3.Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions:Why am I doing it, What the results might be and Will I be successful.Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead.

4.The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spreads in all direction.

5.Treat your kid like a darling for the first five years.  For the next five years, scold them. By the time they turn sixteen, treat them like a friend.  Grown up children are your best friends.
