Your true status...

You are sitting in the new Mahindra XUV 500 and you think that tells the world about your status. While sitting in that expensive car, what do you do with the chocolate wrapper... will you chuck it out the window or keep it with you till you reach your destination? That talks a lot about your status...

You are driving a BMW 6 series at 2 am in the night. You are standing on a signal and there's no traffic cops... Whether you stop or jump the signal will be the true indicative of your status...

Unknowingly you jumped a signal and got pulled over... Whether you accept your fault and pay the fine or try to buy your way out of the situation, will speak a lot about your true status...

That Cashier in the supermarket just gave you an extra 20 bucks in change... by mistake of course... Whether you give the excess change back to him or not... will speak about your true status...

You have an appointment at 9.00 am, whether you reach at 9.00 or at 9.02 will speak a lot about your status... Even louder is that statement when you reach at 8.55 am.

Eventhough you might have the biggest bungalow on the street, how you dispose your garbage bags will talk about your true status...

Material objects are an indicator of status only to those who see with a materialistic view. Materialistic status symbols are important but I think I should also be spending time on raising myself higher as a person. Raising my status for myself.

  1. If you change the way you look at the world before you expect the world to change for you, reflects your true status.
