Long time ago,there was a man who was extremely lazy and poor.He did not want to do any hard work but used to
dream of being rich one day.He got his food by begging from others.
One morning he got a pot of milk.He boiled the milk.drank some of it and put the remaining milk in the pot.He
added slight curds (into the pot for converting the milk to curd.and then he lay down to sleep.
Soon he started imagining about the pot of milk."By tomorrow morning.the pot of milk would be converted to
curd.I would heat it and make ghee (out of it.Next,I will go to the market and sell that ghee to make some money.
With that money.I will buy a hen.Then the hen will lay many eggs which will hatch and there will be many chickens.
These chickens will in tum lay hundreds of eggs and I will soon have a farm of my own."He kept on imagining.
"I will sell all the chickens to buy some cows and open a milk factory.All people in the town will buy milk from
me.I will be so rich that I will be able to marry a beautiful girl.Soon I will have a pretty son.If he makes some trouble,I
will teach him a lesson and I will hit him with a stick."During this dream.he picked up the stick next to his bed,thinking
that he was beating his son.He raised the stick and hit the pot.The pot of milk broke and he woke up from his daydream.
Nothing can replace hard work.Dreams cannot be fulfilled without hard work.
