    A painter has just completed his course. He took 3 days and painted beautiful scenery. He wanted to know people's opinion about his talent and painting skills.

He put his creation at a busy street and just down below a board which read—“I have painted this piece. Since I'm new to this profession I might have committed some mistakes. Please put a cross wherever you see a mistake.”

While he came back in the evening to collect his painting he was completely shattered to see that whole canvass(画板)was filled with crosses, they criticized the painter ruthlessly.

Disheartened and broken completely he ran to his master's and burst into tears.

This young artist complained, "I’m useless and if this is what I have learnt to paint I'm not worth becoming a painter. People have rejected me completely."

Master smiled and suggested, “My son, I will prove that you are a great artist and have learnt flawless painting. Do as I say without questioning it. It will work.”

Young artist agreed and two days later early morning he presented a replica(复制品) of his earlier painting to his master. Master took that gracefully and smiled.

“Come with me.”master said.

They reached the same street early morning and displayed the same painting exactly at the same place. Now master took out another board which read—“Gentlemen, I have painted this piece. Since I ’m new to this profession I might have committed some mistakes in my strokes etc. I have put a box with colors and brushes just below. Please do a favor. If you see a mistake, kindly pick up the brush and correct it. ”
