\u201cPrevention is better than cure\u201d is\none of the most common and popular proverbs. It teaches us that it is better to\ntake appropriate measures before the commencement of a problem than after it\nhas already ensued. It is a highly valuable advice and when applied to deal\nwith our daily life issues, it can help us in preventing many mishaps from\noccurring. Also, three vital factors\u2014time, effort and money\u2014can be considerably\nsaved. Hence, proper initiatives should be taken to implement the proverb in\nall walks of life judiciously. Prevention means to avoid and cure means to\ncorrect anything that is troublesome or detrimental. There is an old saying\nwhich holds true in daily life, i.e. no man is perfect, and we all make mistakes.\nBut with the help of an act of prevention one can avoid doing many disasters,\ncomplexities, confusion and destruction. We can check ourselves from doing\nsomething by thinking about the outcome (that can happen because of our\nnegligence) first and then take appropriate action. Each and every action\nshould be measured carefully because solving the problem will be more time\nconsuming and more painful compared to taking precaution so that the problem\ndoes not happen. Now the question arises, \u201cWhy is prevention better than cure\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To Avoid Diseases<\/strong>: Nowadays, we can keep away from many diseases ranging from a\ncommon cough To Perform Well<\/strong>: A student, despite not being proficient in a particular subject,\ncan do well, provided that knowing his areas of weakness he puts in extra\neffort beforehand. Thus, he not only can avert the ignominy of not performing\nas per expectations but also gain the much-needed confidence to improve\nfurther.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To Prolong the Longevity of Valuable\nAssets<\/strong>: It is a well-known fact that if we\nrun an AC along with a fan, within a short span the AC will slowly accumulate\ncopious dust and eventually, stop working. Leaving aside the financial loss the\nrepairing of such costly product would induce, it may also happen that the AC\nnever fully recovers! Hence, to avert such accidents, it is wise to switch off\nthe fan, while an AC is on. With other objects too, appropriate precautions can\nsave a lot of money and resources. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To Minimise the Rate of Crimes<\/strong>: People often talk about issues, like the growing trend amidst\nyouths to be disrespectful, violent and selfish. But, do we ever devote a\nmoment\u2019s thought to find the right preventive step to guide or stop them?\nNegativity grows when a child\u2019s vacant mind gets polluted with destructive\nthoughts. Eventually, it is natural for such an individual to become wreckful\nor vindictive towards others. If the elders of a family take an active role in\neducating their children about the importance of being humble and kind, our\nsociety would never suffer from such a consequence. Children bred on noble\nvirtues, turn into responsible citizens and heartily contribute towards the\nnation\u2019s development and peace. Imbibing values in our children from an early\nage is, therefore, a vital deterrent that can effectively aid in reducing\ncriminal tendencies in youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wise men always use this formula for\nthe success, they never wait for the deadline to come near to start their work,\ninstead they finish their work before the deadline. This gives them time to\nsolve any unseen problem that might occur during the process of their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This proverb is helpful for\nunderstanding the value of prevention and cure. It helps improve the efficiency\nto solve the problems of life and to prevent the difficulties.\n\nThere is a famous quote by Benjamin Franklin, \u201cAn\nounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure\u201d. Now, there can be many arguments\nregarding the justification of the proverb. Some may agree while others may\ndisagree. But what\u2019s the harm in being a little alert? After all, we have only\none life, and we must find ways to make it better for ourselves as well as for\nthose around us.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cPrevention is better than cure\u201d is one of the most common and popular proverbs.
