The professor holds up a glass of water in class and asks students to guess its weight, which they do. He then asks what would happen if he held it up for longer periods of time - minutes, hours, days. While the weight would not change, his arm would become sore and possibly numb. He explains that life's problems are like the glass of water - they seem manageable at first but can overwhelm us if dwelled upon. The key is to "put the glass down" at the end of each day to avoid stress and start fresh the next day able to handle what comes.

Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to see & asked the students How much do you think this glass weighs? '50gms!' .... '100gms!' .....'125gms' ..the students answered.
I really don't know unless I weigh it, said the professor, but, my question is: What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes? 'Nothing' .. the students said .
'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the professor asked. 'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the student
You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day? Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress & paralysis & have to go to hospital for sure! .. ventured another student & all the students laughed
Very good. But during all this, did the weight of the glass change? asked the professor. 'No. Was the answer.
Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress? The students were puzzled. What should I do now to come out of pain? asked professor again. Put the glass down! said one of the students
Exactly! said the professor. Life's problems are something like this. Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK. Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache. Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will not be able to do anything.
It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life, but EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day before You go to sleep. That way, you are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh &strong & can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way!
