The document discusses life lessons that can be learned from driving. It outlines 5 lessons: 1) Slowing down is sometimes necessary for safety reasons, just as we must slow our pace at times in life. 2) Everyone is on their own journey with different goals, so there is no need to compete with others. 3) While pursuing our own goals, we must be considerate of others on the road or in life. 4) Maintaining balance, like proper tire pressure in driving, is important for a smooth journey in life. 5) Bumps and obstacles are inevitable, so we should not get stressed and instead continue forward while minimizing negative impacts.

1. Life Lessons Learnt from Driving
In my job as a marketer I spend a good time behind the wheels.
While driving my mind has been drawn some life lessons to which
we all can easily relate to. These are simple thoughts correlated with
the various aspects of driving.
I hope you would enjoy reading these:

2. Lessons 1
Slowing down is necessary even when one is least interested
I am sure this would happened at least once with all of you while driving. You
are sailing smoothly and do not wish to change your gear or slowdown but
somehow it is necessary for various reasons. It could be to avoid accident with
others or for own safety.
Similarly, in our lives too, we would have to move with different pace at different
situations in order to reach to our respective destination.

3. Lessons 2
Every individual is running a different race and has different end goals.
Has it ever happened that while driving you have been drawn into a race with
other vehicles on the road?
You start competing with them to go ahead by maneuvering through the traffic.
Sometime later a signal or a turn comes and they take a different route and you
are left alone.
We all are having different lives, goals and destinations. There is no need of any
competition or comparison with others. Doing so would impact us negatively
( accident on the road)

4. Lessons 3
You would have to take care of people around while you are busy running your race
While driving reaching your destination is not the only thing one has to care for.
There are many others on the road whom we need to be careful about. They may
not be able to make the best decision and we have to be considerate about them.
Any harm to them would impact us in many ways.
In our personal and professional lives too we encounter such situations. It is
imperative that we remain conscious and take care of others. They may be our
family/friends/relatives/Neighbors/Colleagues/Staffs or even workers

5. Lessons 4
Right pressure in wheels is required for a smooth and safe journey
A balanced pressure is required in all the wheels for smooth movement and
also saves the vehicle from getting damaged. Uneven pressure also impacts
the speed with which we can move ahead.
Similarly, we have to maintain the equilibrium in our lives in terms of right
energy/health and pressure to keep surging ahead for our respective goals.

6. Lessons 5
Potholes and Bumps are inevitable. One must not get affected by it
No matter where you go you are sure to encounter bumps and potholes in your
journey(at least in India). Loosing one’s calm and not able to cope with these
would generate undue stress and would also have impact on the vehicle/Self
and others on the road.
In our lives too we encounter such situations which decrease our pace at which
we are moving ahead in our respective endeavors. We should not get negative
about such encounters and learn to slow down, and move ahead with
minimum affect on our body/mind/aspirations and people related to us.
