8. Cruel Psychology

 

 

8. Cruel Psychology
Excuse me a bit of cruel Psychology. You fail in your enterprise, and now you wish to leave your home and try your luck in other climes. It is not because your ambition has received a fresh spur from your failure; but chiefly because you wish to hide your face from those who have witnessed your failure.

* This reflection was published in New Era, Lucknow, in 1917.
It was reworded as: “ When we fail in an enterprise we feel
inclined to leave our home and try our luck in alien climes. If
such is your situation, study your soul closely before deciding
one way or the other. Is it because your ambition has received
a fresh spur from your failure, or because you wish to hide
your face from those who have witnessed your failure? Excuse
this bit of cruel Psychology.” – KAS.
