Put three pots of water over the fire.
![Page 3: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
In the first pot, put some carrots.

In the third pot, put some coffee beansthat have been grounded into coffee powder.

Boil all three pots for 15 minutes.
Take out what you put in.
![Page 7: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The carrots went in hard. They are now soft.
The eggs went in soft inside. Now they are hard inside.
![Page 8: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
But the water has the colour and the wonderful smell of coffee.
The coffee powder has disappeared.

Now think about life.
Life is not always easy.
Life is not always comfortable.
Sometimes life is very hard.
![Page 10: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
We work very hard but get few results.What happens when we face difficultiesdifficulties?
Things don’t happen like we wish.
People don’t treat us like we hope.
![Page 11: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Now think about the pots.
The boiling water is like the problems of life.
![Page 12: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
We can be like the carrots.
We go intough and strong.
We come out soft and weak.
![Page 13: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
We get very tired.We lose hope.We give up.
There is no more fighting spirit.
Don’t be like the carrots!Don’t be like the carrots!
![Page 14: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
We can be like the eggs.
We start with a soft and
sensitive heart.
We end up very hard and
unfeeling inside.
![Page 15: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
We hate others.We don’t like ourselves.
We become hard-hearted.
There is no warm feeling, only bitterness.
Don’t be like the eggs!Don’t be like the eggs!
![Page 16: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
We can be like the coffee beans.
The water does not change the coffee powder.
The coffee powder changes
the water!
![Page 17: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The water has become different because of the coffee powder.
See it.Smell it.Drink it.
The hotterhotter the water, the betterbetter the taste.

We can be like the coffee beans.
We make something good from the difficulties we face.
We learn new things.

We have new knowledge, new skills, new abilities.
We grow in experience.
![Page 20: positive Thinking](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051608/5453d444af7959aa678b7e28/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
We make the world around us better.We make the world around us better.
