7-year-old Holly adventure to Nanny's. Nanny tells Holly about the subconcious. Nanny explains with a story. Think of your mind as a big castle. There are many rooms in this castle. Some rooms are where you do your thinking and playing, like when you solve a puzzle or play with your toys. This part of your mind is called your conscious mind. It’s what you use when you are awake and thinking about things. But there is another part of the castle that works quietly in the background, even when you’re not thinking about it. This part is called the subconscious. It’s like a magical room where all your dreams, memories, and feelings are stored. Your subconscious helps you remember how to ride a bike, how to tie your shoes, and even helps you feel happy or calm. It listens to everything you think and feel, even if you don’t say it out loud. If you think happy thoughts and believe in good things, your subconscious helps make those things happen. Just like happy thoughts bring good things, sad or angry thoughts can bring not-so-good things. If you keep thinking, “I can’t do this,” or “This is too hard,” you might feel upset and not try your best. Holly thinks its important to focus on the good and stay positive.

Introduction: Rohan, a curious and adventurous boy, loved listening to stories from an old storyteller in the village. One day, the storyteller gave him a challenge—he would tell Rohan a tale, and at the end, he must answer a question. If he answered correctly, the storyteller would tell him another story. If he didn't, he would have to think harder next time! The Story: In a small town, two brothers, Karan and Rahul, lived with their loving parents. Karan was responsible and hardworking, always helping his parents with chores and studying well. Rahul, on the other hand, loved playing all day and never cared about his studies or work. One day, their father gave them each a small piece of land to take care of. Karan worked hard, watering the plants, removing weeds, and taking care of his land. Rahul, however, was lazy and ignored his land, spending all his time playing games. After a few months, Karan's land was full of fresh vegetables and beautiful flowers, while Rahul’s land was dry and empty. Seeing this, Rahul felt sad and asked Karan for help. Instead of scolding him, Karan kindly taught him how to take care of the land. Rahul learned his lesson and promised to be more responsible. One day, a wise old man in the village asked, "Who is the wiser brother—the one who always worked hard or the one who made mistakes but learned from them?" The Question: The storyteller asked Rohan, "Who do you think was wiser—Karan, who always did the right thing, or Rahul, who learned from his mistakes?" Rohan’s Answer: Rohan thought for a moment and said, "Karan is wiser because he always worked hard. It’s good to learn from mistakes, but being responsible from the start is even better." The storyteller smiled and said, "That is a great answer! Now, let me tell you another story..." Moral of the Story: Working hard and being responsible from the beginning leads to success, but learning from mistakes also helps us grow.
