In a small town lived a young man named Gurvit. He was hardworking, but life repeatedly threw him down. Sometimes he'd lose his job, sometimes his friends would betray him, and sometimes some family problem would arise. People would say, "Gurvit is having a very bad time."
At first, he was devastated by these things. But one day, his mentor, Shekhar Sir, said to him, "Everyone faces bad times, son, but be careful... don't let anyone else suffer because of you."
This saying stuck in Gurvit's heart. He resolved that no matter what, he wouldn't do bad things to others. Gradually, he understood that no one can rise by bringing others down.
Gurvit tried again—gave interviews, got rejected; started a business, suffered losses. But each time, he told himself, "I never lose. I either win or I learn."
Gradually, his thinking changed. Failure no longer frightened him, but instead taught him.
One day, he met a teacher from his old school. The teacher said, "Son, bow down to your books; they will make the whole world bow down to you."
Gurvit took this advice seriously. He made studies his strength. Knowledge became his weapon, and that knowledge became his true wealth.
Gurvit had become wiser. But he noticed that many people around him were like Ravana—lies, greed, jealousy, and pretense.
He began to think, "Ravana had ten faces, but they were clearly visible... Today's Ravana is hidden behind a smile."
Now he began to judge people not by their faces, but by their actions.
One day, some people in his office were found involved in wrongdoing—bribery and fraud. When he protested, they said, "Brother, this is how things work in this world. Don't go looking for justice."
Gurvit smiled and said, "You'll never find justice in a world where criminals make the rules."
He quit his job and started his own honest business. He earned less, but his self-esteem soared.
Gradually, as his success became apparent, those same people started talking behind his back.
Someone said, "Gurvit has become arrogant."
Someone said, "He's just lucky."
Gurvit just smiled and thought, "Unless someone says something to your face, you shouldn't say anything."
One day, his younger brother was very sad—someone had said something bad to him.
Gurvit laughed and said, "Don't be bothered by what everyone says... some people are born to talk nonsense."
His brother's smile returned, and that very day, Gurvit realized he had learned the true lesson of life.
Over time, Gurvit became successful—but more than that, he became a sensitive, honest, and calm person.
People still say, "Gurvit is very lucky."
But no one knows that he turned his bad times into a lesson, and that was his real victory.
Lesson : - Bad times don't break a person, they polish them.
If you learn from defeat and think well of others, one day the whole world will bow before you.
