Solution

'The time to be happy is now'

Being content in the moment is a rare quality that we possess. It is true that no one can remain cheerful when faced with hardship. But much too frequently, we ruin the present by lamenting the past and fretting about the future. A tale of two boys will explain how one boy benefits from living in the present while the other does not.

Ajit and Vishal were two brothers. Being the older brother, Ajit wasn't as well-treated as Vishal, his younger sibling. The two brothers' personalities were totally opposite. Ajit always kept his work updated and even went that extra mile to foresee what could be done beforehand so that he could remain in the good books of his teachers and his parents. He always maintained a positive attitude and only felt at rest once all of his job had been completed. On the other hand, Vishal was a daydreamer. He never stayed in the present like Ajit would, always dreaming of doing something great in the future. As time went on, Ajit became well-equipped to pass a professional assessment test, and he eventually did. Martin, the daydreamer, was never in the habit of living happily in the present, worried about the workload of homework, was never happy about the evaluation of his work at school, and could never bring himself to the level of preparedness that is so fundamental to success. He still regrets his past and is concerned about his future, in contrast to his brother, who is content with his present and measures each rung of success with a deftness that Vishal lacks.
