Unwanted help is injurious to self confidence

 A beggar who was staying at Himalayan had visited a kingdom nearby. 


When the king heard of the beggar he was curious to know how he is managed to live in such extreme cold conditions. 


Beggar said he got adjusted to such cold conditions as he had no other options. 


Listening to that king felt very bad and he assured the beggar that he will provide him with some warm clothes during night. 


Soon after saying that, king got busy with his work and he totally forgot about the beggar. 


Beggar stood outside the palace thinking that king is going to help him as he promised


That night was very cold  . Beggar spent the night sitting outside the palace. 


King was tired doing his work and he also went to bed without thinking of beggar. 


When it was next day morning  ,  King observed the beggar who is sitting in front of palace. 


Beggar was totally frozen and unconscious because of the cold conditions and he was treated immediately. 


King was surprised because beggar who spent his days in Himalayas, was frozen and unconscious for the cold conditions  !! !!! 


He asked his doubt with beggar who later regained consciousness. 


Beggar said, 

" I was self confident that I can tolerate the cold conditions till you offered me help of providing warm clothes. 


The unwanted help from you lowered my self confidence level. 


Moral :  Unwanted help is always injurious to self confidence.

Bheja Fry question

 This bheja fry question is the easiest.


Question 


Complete the series


12 ,  17 ,  23 ,  30,  38 , ???


Answer 


I named brain teasers as bheja fry questions  !!!


Brain teasers always follow certain type of series.


If we come to know what is the format of series , it is very easy to solve the problem.


Like in above problem,


We can see that given numbers  12.  17 ,  23 ,  30 .....


The first number is getting increased by  +5.

Next number by +6.

Next number by  +7.

Next number by  +8.

Next number by   +9.     And  so on.


So coming to last given number which is 38.

The next number should get increased by  +9.

That means  38 must get increased by  +9



Hence  answer is    38  +   9   =   47 .
