Be good- Be performer

-




One day my son suddenly started behaving very good with me, It took some time to understand. Then understood his weekly test marks are low for which he is finding the way to be good to compensate the non performance.

First I was impressed with his goodness. But immediately realized that I am encouraging the non performance can be manipulated with temporary good behaving.  

 You might be a wonderful person, You could be a very honest person, very kind at heart, very helpful and obedient to your boss, parents and teachers. Who cares?  Your goodness cannot substitute to your bad performance. Even if you are good, you will be disrespected if you don’t show good results. You need to be good and also you need to be a performer.

If you are an exceptional performer that does not mean that you would have the license to be a bad person. Even if you are a top performer in the organization, if you have all the bad qualities, then will the world look up to you. No Way!!. The world will not care for such people. 

Just because you are extra ordinary in work, intelligent and produce better result, you can not be arrogant or can be indiscipline. 

Just because today worked extra time at work place ,next day  walks in two hours late. This doesn’t count for the credibility. 

I say always you have compensated your extra  performance with  indiscipline  in next day. This is not appreciated or appraised. 

The ideal person is a person who has the combination of a Performer and a Good person. “You need to be good and also produce results”

Today's maturity is different form yesterday's

Arivu  ಅರಿವು … The Maturity at which we deal today is different from the maturity with which we dealt same on yesterday. I was discussing with a good friend of mine for his decision of postponing his marriage even after late 30’s.  He questioned me, what makes difference if it is too late marriage? Suddenly did not have answer to justify. But I believe, the intimacy at innocence age has different experience and feeling than the intimacy after over maturity. Every day pass by, we add an experience. Every time we meet a person we add an experience and get matured. It is foolish to say, I am meeting today with the same maturity had yesterday. Every experience showered gives a maturity in your life. I always say in my beginning of the speech, the person walked inside this room is not the same person when you go back. It adds a new experience in his life and adds a new wisdom on to the person. And it is true the person  gets next level of maturity when he goes back.

33. Count your blessings not the troubles

 Count your blessings not the troubles  In my journey of life and the lessons gleaned from personal experiences that I aspire to share in the book I am endeavoring to publish, one profound revelation stands out. It revolves around our tendency to attribute our challenges and discontent to external factors—the country we reside in, the state and city we belong to, the educational institutions we attended, or even our family lineage. We extend this blame to the very fabric of our society, including our parents and their predecessors. Yet, upon closer examination, it becomes evident that the prosperity or adversity of a nation isn't solely determined by geographical location or available resources. Take Japan, for instance—a nation with limited arable land and abundant mountains. Despite these seemingly unfavorable conditions, Japan has emerged as a global economic powerhouse, relying on its innovative prowess rather than abundant resources. Notably, intellectual and racial differenc

"Covid 19 Pandemic: Embracing Life's True Values" The COVID-19 pandemic shook the world, forcing us to reevaluate our lives, our priorities, and our values. In the face of uncertainty, the pandemic taught us invaluable lessons that we must carry forward. These lessons are a testament to the strength of the human spirit and a reminder of what truly matters in life.  Life's Fragility:   "In the crucible of the pandemic, the fragility of life became painfully evident, etched into the fabric of a personal tragedy that unfolded within the circles of my closest friends. The story began when a dear friend's husband, on a business trip to Bangalore, found himself entangled in the clutches of COVID-19. The hotel where he stayed instructed him to leave immediately and go to the hospital. However, finding a good hospital was challenging, and he sought my help. An urgent plea for help echoed from both Bangalore and Delhi, where his wife anxiously reached out to me, seeki
