There is a Buddha in all of us. Kindness galore, when we try to impart knowledge to others. “Hey, don’t you worry, awright?! This is so simple you’ll love doing it.”
Perfect! This really works big time. Psychology! It’s the best way to motivate someone to learn without much fuss.
But, it works just the other way round for me. I get stumped when I get to hear such so called motivational words. I find myself reacting, “Easy, did you say? Really? But, I don’t find it so.”
Even before I could finish uttering these words, I find a sense of inferiority complex sneaking its way into me like a virus and corrupting the entire intellectual ecosystem – whatever little I have of it.
“Whatever is easy for you need not be easy for me, for heaven’s sake”, I feel like saying. But, having been endowed with a weak intellect, I can’t dare to express myself and so I keep me to myself.
