Chase the Vision not the Money

-


We express gratitude to the freedom fighter on the day of Flag hoisting  on 15th of August  across country and  remember the people who gave their life to get the independence to this Country. 


But the truth is “We remember the people who gave something to this world” not the selfish. We don’t take an example who achieved for the self.


But an other side from child hood we have been told to study well and get the rank. Get the good job so that you can earn good money. Invariably parents, relatives, neighbours, friends always give a message about get some thing  in your life than giving to this world. 


Even in the education counselling, we have been counselled to choose medical or engineering so that you can earn more money. Nobody says choose engineering and serve like sir M vishweshwaraish or become doctor and serve like Mother Therasa. 


Get something from this world has seeped so depth in to our mind, the moment we see a beautiful rose in the rose plant, immediately our subconscious mind says pluck it and get it.  Earning, Getting, Plucking is gone in to our sub conscious mind in deep. So we always think about “Getting from this world” instead “Giving something to this world”.


We remember Thomas Alva Edison, because he invented and gave many things to this planet. We remember the Sachin Tendulakar because he gave the success in the cricket to this country. We remember the mahatma Gandhi, because he scarifies his life to get the independence to all of us. We remember the Jesus, since he gave the love to this world. Though in speeches we remember the people who gave something to this planet & society. But, we practice getting always from the world.


Chase the vision, not the money. Money follows. Our vision should be to give something to this world.

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

1. Covid 19 Pandemic: Embracing life's True Values

"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
