Golden Words

Love your job but don't love your Company because you may not know
When your company stops loving you.
Dr. ABDUL KALAM


What is the Secret of SUCCESS... ? "RIGHT DECISIONS"
How do you make Right Decisions... ? "EXPERIENCE"
How do you get Experience.. . ? "WRONG DECISIONS
Dr. ABDUL KALAM

Without your involvement you can't succeed.... With your involvement you can't fail.
Dr. ABDUL KALAM

You are not responsible for what people think about you.
But you are responsible for what you give them to think about you.
STANLEY FERRARD

 A man is lucky if he is the first love of a Woman.
A woman is lucky if she is the last love of a man.
CHARLES DICKENS

Write your Sad times in Sand, Write your Good times in Stone.
GEORGE BERNARD SHAW

Behind every successful man, there is an untold pain in his heart.
BILL JACOBS

It's better to lose your Ego to the one you Love,
Than to lose the one you LOVE because of EGO.
JOHN KEATS

Don't make promise when you are in JOY . Don't reply when you are SAD.
Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise.

Life is one of those races in nursery school where you have to run with a marble in a spoon kept in your mouth. If the marble falls, there is no point coming first. Same with life, where health and relationships are the marble. Your striving is only worth it if there is harmony in your life. Else, you may achieve the success, but this spark, this feeling of being excited and alive, will start to die.

One thing about nurturing the spark - don't take life seriously. Life is not to be taken seriously, as we are really temporary here. We are like a pre-paid card with limited validity. If we are lucky, we may last another 50 years. And 50 years is just 2,500 weekends. Do we really need to get so worked up?
It's ok, bunk a few classes, goof up a few interviews, take leave from work, fall in love. We are people, not programmed devices. :)
"Don't be serious, be sincere.”!!!

Don't Change the World


Once upon a time, there lived a king who ruled over a prosperous country.
One day, he had to visit a distant part of his country. When he returned to his palace, he complained that his feet hurt very badly, as it was the first time that he had gone on such a long trip, and the path that he went through was very rough and stony.
He then ordered his people to cover every road in the entire country with leather. Definitely, this would need thousands of cows' skin, and would cost a huge amount of money.
Then one of his wiser servants dared to tell the king, "Why do you have to spend such a large sum to cover the roads ? Why don't you just cut a little piece of leather to cover your feet?"
The king was surprised, but he agreed - to make a "shoe" for himself.
There is actually a valuable lesson for life in this story: To make this world a happy place to live in, you better change yourself - your heart; and not the world.
