How to become Street Smart? 👥😎🦋🌻

Why should one want to become street smart? Perhaps there is some feeling of inferiority which comes from comparison with others.

This means developing the mind by reading different kinds of books, developing one’s vital by refining it through music, art, poetry, building a strong body through sports and exercises. Playing some sport is an excellent way of developing some beautiful psychological qualities which are part of the sporting spirit, as well as a harmonious body. Deep breathing exercises are also a simple, helpful way to quieten the nerves and make them strong. 

Affectionately,
