Acharya Prashant addresses the tendency of individuals to become overly distressed by small mistakes. He explains that when a person's life is devoid of something vast and significant, they naturally become obsessed with trivial matters, which he metaphorically refers to as 'pennies'. Just as a billionaire is not bothered by the loss of a penny because they possess immense wealth, a person with a great purpose or spiritual depth is not disturbed by minor errors. The problem is not the mistake itself, but the lack of a larger, more meaningful context in one's life. He asserts that smallness only leaves the mind when something grand and infinite enters it.
