In one of his videos, the famous character Mr. Bean sees a boy playing the baja in the hope that the passers-by will help him. Mr. Bean also puts his hand in his pocket but does not have coins in his pocket. He sees the collected money of the boy that if he gives the note, he will get the balance. But, the boy does not have that much amount of money.

Seeing this, Mr. Bean took out a handkerchief from his pocket and laid it in front of him and started dancing in his characteristic silent manner. Passers put coins in front of him. He then puts these coins in front of the boy and walks away with a sigh of relief.

There are two types of human beings, one from whom help is asked, their brain immediately calculates, what will be their profit and loss by helping others?

The other type immediately thinks what will be the benefit and loss of the other by not helping them.

The first thinkers are weak people. A weak person always thinks about his profit and loss first. Because, he doubts his own ability. The second thinkers immediately think of others. They are satisfied with their own ability, if the other shows themselves worthy, then they make some way of help.

Mr. Bean aka Rowan Atkinson used to stutter while speaking. He was doing electrical engineering but his passion was acting. Look at the works of nature, in this era of loud talk, his character became famous again, who did not speak at all.

In exactly the same way, nature weighs us on these silent thoughts of ours. Weak people do not come out of their shell and strong people can not be locked in a shell.

For the strong intentions of these strong people, nature then creates a path just as water makes its way.
