Problems are stepping stones for success

Practically speaking...

let me start with a proverb .."Failure is the stepping stone for success"  I want add a topping to that ..Also problems are the stepping stones for success.

Some time back I heard a sermon on how to overcome difficulties in life.  It was really great ...It is simply because of that I would like to share this with you.
You know Turtles in the sea come to the shore to lay the eggs.  It doesnt incubate the eggs .. instead it buries the egg over the sands.  Here comes the list of problems in the life of a turtle.

1. Before it hatches the eggs may be broken by playful kids in the shore...
2. Once it hatches and starts towards waters, some predator tries to eat the little turtles.
3. After reaching the waters they arent safe.  Still it is harassed by adult turtles.

the only survivor will be the turtle which overcomes all trials.

This particular message touched my heart and from that day I started taking troubles as stepping stones for my success. Hope you will find it useful if you wish to overcome problems.

Windows folder creation surprise

Sometime back my colleague forwarded me a mail saying that we cant create a folder by name "con" in Windows. The mail said it is a great discovery.

In windows there is something called devices which are inbuilt on the Operating System. This is responsible for INPUT/OUTPUT in Windows OS. Similarly you will find that You would not be able to create folders like "LPT1, LPT2, Aux, Com1, Com2, Com3 etc..

Hope this will clarify people reading this.
