PASSION

“You must love what you do. In order to be truly successful at something, you must obsess over it and let it consume you. No matter how successful your business might become, you are never satisfied and constantly push to do something bigger, better and greater. You lead by example, not because you feel like it’s what you should do, but because it is your way of life.”

 'Success Is Not an Entitlement; You Have to Earn It Every Day.'

10 PRINCIPLES TO SUCCESS

मित्रहो,
मायक्रोसॉफ्ट कंपनीचा मालक आणि जगातील सर्वात श्रीमंत व्यक्ती म्हणुन प्रसिध्द असलेले बिल गेट्स आपणाला माहीत असतीलच! आपल्या मायक्रोसॉफ्ट या तंत्रज्ञानाने सर्व जगावर राज्य करणारे बील गेट्स यांनी फार थोड्याच अवधीत हे यश संपादन केले आहे. थोड्क्यात काय तर बील गेट्स हे एक अत्यंत यशस्वी व्यक्तिमत्व आहे. तर अशा या यशस्वी व्यक्तीच्या यशामागील रहस्य आज आपण जाणुन घेउया आणि ते देखिल त्यांच्याच तोंडुन. बील गेट्स यांनी एका शाळेमध्ये केलेल्या भाषणात काही अशा गोष्टी (१० नियम) सांगीतल्या ज्या कोणत्याही शाळेत शिकविल्या जात नाहीत. या भाषणात बील साहेबांनी आपल्या रुढ शिक्षण पद्धतीवर चांगलेच आसुड ओढलेत, सतत आदर्शवादाचा पुरस्कार करणारी आपली शिक्षण पद्धती मुलांना वास्तवापासुन दूर नेते आणि त्यामुळेच आजच्या तीव्र स्पर्धेच्या युगात अशा काही पिढ्या मागे सरत चालल्यात असे बील गेट्स यांचे मत आहे.

नियम १ - आयुष्य खडतर आहे, त्याची सवय करुन घ्या.

नियम २ - जग कधीच तुमच्या स्वाभीमानाची पर्वा करत नाही. स्वत:बद्दल अभिमान बाळगण्याआधी काहीतरी करुन दाखवा. स्वतःला सिध्द करा.

नियम ३ - कॉलेजमधुन बाहेर पड्ल्या पडल्या पाच आ़कडी पगाराची अपेक्षा करु नका. एका रात्रीत कोणी वाइस प्रेसिडंट होत नाही, त्या पदापर्यंत पोहोचण्यासाठी अपार कष्ट करावे लागतात .

नियम ४ - आज कदाचीत तुम्हाला तुमचे शिक्षक कडक आणि भितीदायक वाटत असतील, कारण अजुन बॉस नावाचा प्राणी तुमच्या आयुष्यात यायचाय.

नियम ५ - तुम्ही केलेली चुक ही सर्वस्वी तुमची चुक आहे आणि तुमचा पराजय ह सर्वस्वी तुमचा पराजय आहे. कोणाला दोष देउ नका, झालेल्या चुकिपासुन धडा घ्या आणि पुढे चालत रहा.

नियम ६ - तुमचे पालक तुम्ही जन्माला यायच्या आधी एवढे कंटाळ्वाणे आणि अरसिक नव्हते जेवढे तुम्हाला ते आता वाटतात. तुमचेच संगोपन करण्याठी त्यांनी जे अमाप कष्ट घेतलेत त्यामुळेच आज त्यांचा स्वभाव असा झाला आहे.

नियम ७ - उत्तेजनार्थ पारितोषीक हा प्रकार फक्त शाळेतच पहायला मिळ्तो. काही शाळांमध्ये तर अगदी पास होइपर्यंत परीक्षा देता येते. बाहेरच्या जगातील पध्द्त मात्र वेगळीच असते. खरया जगात
हरणारयाला कोणिही दुसरी संधी देण्यास तयार नसतो.

नियम ८ - आयुष्याच्या शाळेत इयत्ता आणि तुकडी नसते, त्यामध्ये मे महीन्याची सुट्टी नसते. स्वतःचा शोध घ्यायला, नविन काही शिकायला कोणि तुम्हाला वेळ नाही देत. तो वेळ तुमचा तुम्हालाच शोधायचा असतो.

नियम ९ - टीव्ही वरचे जीवन काही खरे नसते आणि खरे आयुष्य म्हणजे टीव्ही वरची सीरियल नसते. खरया आयुष्यात आराम नसतो , असते ते फक्त काम आणि काम.

नियम १० - सतत अभ्यास करणारया आणि अपार मेहनत करणारया तुमच्या मित्रांना चिडवू नका. एक दिवस असा येइल की तुम्हाला त्यांच्याच हाताखाली काम करावे लागेल .

be open minded

The number one inspiration 
in a general sense is children.

They are the most open-minded
and the greatest optimists. 


We were all that way when we were children and as we get older sometimes we have a tendency to lose that. Children have a tendency to believe anything is possible. That is a big inspiration.

Bert Jacobs.

MARATHI KAVITA

घुमट

माणसं भेटतात, प्रसंग आठवतात.
मनात भावनांची गर्दी झाली की शब्द अबोल होतात,
बुद्धी परकी होते, फक्त आपल्यासाठी का होईना काळाचं चक्र थांबतं.

खूप काही बोलायचं असतं, पण नेमक्या शब्दात मांडणं कठीण होऊन जातं.
काय सांगावं, कसं सांगावं, काय आधी सांगावं, सांगितलंच पाहिजे का?
हे विचार करता करता सगळंच सांगायचं राहतं.

युद्धभूमीवर सामान्य सैन्य पुढे करून राजाने मागून सगळं रणांगण पहावं तसं
शब्दांच्या गिचमिडीत नेमके हवे तेच शब्द मागे राहतात.
मग जाणवतं की,
जे शब्द ओठातून निसटतात, ते अगदी शुल्लक असतात.
जे लपून राहतात, ते खरे योद्धे असतात. त्यांनी लढायला हवं होतं.

घुमटामध्ये आवाज घुमतो, प्रतिध्वनी ऐकू येतो. पण....
घुमट समजून खुल्या आभाळाखाली जोरात किंकाळी मारून प्रतिध्वनीची वाट पाहण्यात काही अर्थ नसतो,
आपलाच आवाज आपल्याला परत ऐकू येत नाही.
येईलच कसा ?
परत यायला आवाजही आभाळाच्या संपण्याची वाट पाहत धावत असतो पण आभाळ संपतच नाही.
आभाळ हि अनंताकडे स्वतःचा अंत मागत असतं.
आवाज काही परत येत नाही आणि वाट पाहणाऱ्याची वाट पाहणं हि संपत नाही.
मग एकटेपणाशी भेट होते.

"वर्तमानात आवडत्या माणसाला वेळ नाही दिला कि,भविष्यातला बराचसा वेळ एकटेपणाला द्यावा लागतो.".......
so keep humanrelation.......……. शेवटी माणसेच असतात......

10 money lessons from billionaires

"You become what you believe. You are where you are today in your life based on everything you have believed." --Oprah Winfrey, net worth of $2.7 billion First and foremost, you have to believe that greatness is possible. Many of the world's billionaires have shifted the way our world works, because they believed that they were capable of doing something that was previously impossible. Change is possible. Greatness is possible. But you can't do anything unless you first believe in yourself.

"What we say here every day is that our success is really based on our members' success, our community's success." --Pierre Omidyar, net worth of $6.7 billion Your success is directly tied to how much you do for others. It's not what you know. It's not who you know. It's what you do for who you know. Success follows generosity

"The typical human life seems to be quite unplanned, undirected, unlived, and unsavored. Only those who consciously think about the adventure of living as a matter of making choices among options, which they have found for themselves, ever establish real self-control and live their lives fully." --Karl Albrecht, net worth of $25.4 billion Everything you do (or choose not to do) is a choice. Most of us think that life happens to us, but in reality life is something that we choose either by actively pursuing options and creating our own circumstances, or by blocking opportunities and limiting our beliefs of what is possible. You can choose the type of life you want to live.

“I think that our fundamental belief is that for us growth is a way of life and we have to grow at all times.” —Mukesh Ambani, net worth of $22.3 billion Success is not an event—it’s a process. Billionaires embody that process better than most of us. They are on a constant quest to improve, enhance, and outperform themselves. It’s a constant, internal drive to become a better person.

"Getting the job done has been the basis for the success my company has achieved." --Michael Bloomberg, net worth of $22 billion Billionaires have grit and perseverance. Top performers work hard at hard things. And that means that successful people do the things that most people don't want to do, and that's why they get the job done.

"It's through curiosity and looking at opportunities in new ways that we've always mapped our path at Dell. There's always an opportunity to make a difference." --Michael Dell, net worth of $15.9 billion Take a look at any market-leading company. Are they compromising on their product in one way or another? That's an opportunity for disruption, growth, and change. Any unmet need, any annoying problem, any half-baked solution offers a chance to change things.

"If I'm going to do something, I do it spectacularly or I don't do it at all." --Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Alsaud, net worth of $18 billion Developing a world-class skill means that you have the capability to ignore everything else. You have to be able to focus on doing an incredible job or on ignoring it completely. Greatness doesn't come from simply "putting the time in" ... you have to put the time in with effort, energy, and resolve.

"The role of business is to produce goods and services that make people's lives better." --Charles Koch, net worth of $25 billion If your only goal is to become rich, then you're going to have trouble meeting your goal. However, if your focus is on making people's lives better, then you'll find that success comes much more quickly.5. Charles G. Koch, 76 
Company: Koch Industries 
Net worth: $24.7 billion 
Compensation: N/A 

Charles G. Koch has been the chairman and CEO of Koch Industries — one of the largest privately owned companies in the U.S. — since 1967. The group’s annual revenue is more than $100 billion, according to Forbes.

"No person will make a great business who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit." --Andrew Carnegie, net worth of $298.3 billion (in 2007 dollars) Success unshared is failure. Our connections with other people are what give our work meaning. The things we do will only matter if they are shared with others.

"The ultimate definition of success is: you could lose everything that you have and truly be okay with it. Your happiness isn't based on external factors." --Tony Hsieh, net worth of $840 million So often, we push happiness out on the horizon of life. "Once I get this job, I'll be happy." Or, "If only I landed that promotion, then everything would be good." Of course, life doesn't work that way, and there is always another goal once we reach our previous idea of happiness. Money is important, but your life should never be built around it. Happiness comes before success, not after it.

moral of the story

At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly

flew from somewhere and sat on a lady.

She started screaming out of fear. With a

panic stricken face and trembling voice,

she started jumping, with both her

hands desperately trying to get rid of

the cockroach. Her reaction was

contagious, as everyone in her group

also got panicky. The lady finally

managed to push the cockroach away

but ...it landed on another lady in the

group.

Now, it was the turn of the other lady in

the group to continue the drama.

The waiter rushed forward to their

rescue. In the relay of throwing, the

cockroach next fell upon the waiter.

The waiter stood firm, composed himself

and observed the behavior of the

cockroach on his shirt. When he was

confident enough, he grabbed it with his

fingers and threw it out of the

restaurant.

Sipping my coffee and watching the

amusement, the antenna of my mind

picked up a few thoughts and started

wondering, was the cockroach

responsible for their histrionic behavior?

If so, then why was the waiter not

disturbed? He handled it near to

perfection, without any chaos.

It is not the cockroach, but the inability

of the ladies to handle the disturbance

caused by the cockroach that disturbed

the ladies.

I realized that, it is not the shouting of

my father or my boss or my wife that

disturbs me, but it's my inability to

handle the disturbances caused by their

shouting that disturbs me.

It's not the traffic jams on the road that

disturbs me, but my inability to handle

the disturbance caused by the traffic

jam that disturbs me.

More than the problem, it's my reaction

to the problem that creates chaos in my

life.

Lessons learn t from the story:

• I understood, I should not react in life.

• I should always respond.

• The women reacted, whereas the

waiter responded.

Reactions are always instinctive whereas

responses are always well thought of,

just and right to save a situation from

going out of hands, to avoid cracks in

relationship, to avoid taking decisions in

anger, anxiety, stress or hurry.

Let's Talk Motivation: actions dictate your outcome

Consider for a moment that your life is not static. The way
things are, aren't simply, the way things are.



Always remember that the little saying, "you've got to be in
it, to win it" is true. You don't have to swing for the
fences day in and day out, in fact very often, staying on
focus with regards to what you want to see transpire in your
life is more than enough.




Stop throughout your day just long enough to reconnect with
the things that are most important to you. Look over your
goals -- allow yourself to reconnect with them, to feel that
powerful feeling that emerges from inside you as you fully
connect with the part of you that knows you have what it
takes to achieve them -- the part which knows that greatness
is very much a part of who you are.



Live out your dreams to the best of your ability each and
every day. In doing so you will find that the people,
resources, and life experiences will appear to aid you as
you pursue the journey.



In summary, remember that the actions you take, as well as
those you don't take ultimately dictates your outcome. Take
comfort in knowing that while you may not always be able to
control what happens to you, you do have the power to choose
how you will react to what happens in your life. Through
action, you can make the decision to move in a direction
that will serve you, or decide not to which is likely to
keep you stuck. My hope is that you will choose to make
action work for you.

10 tricks to become a loving, positive person

It's one thing to wax eloquent on positivity, but quite another to be a positive person at heart.

Despite believing to have a positive outlook, we invariably weigh the cons first, consider several times before sparing a compliment, and broadcast only the odds when someone counts on us for advice. What's more, we prefer needless sarcasm for humour, manage a wry smile when something is genuinely funny, and believe deep down that the glass is actually half empty.

We live in denial of our inherent negativity for the most part, and often wonder why the world around is so mean and reckless. At work, we never fail telling our juniors how meeting deadlines can be a tough proposition, and not to think too 'out of the box' to impress the boss. In short, we never tire telling all concerned how tough things can be! Unlike dogs we may not be born eternal optimists, but positivity is something that can be imbibed even if a tad forcibly; such as by trying to tweak our sense of humour, the way we react to a given situation, by being more pleasant and believing others too have a mind, and by smiling each time somebody says 'thank you'.

While positivity is a state of mind, the answer lies in our perspective. Clinical psychologist and lifestyle advisor Dr S.K Sharma shares his ideas on how to be a positive person everyday.

Have the desire: First thing first, to become a positive person one must have a strong desire to be positive. And the desire will come only if you are convinced that becoming a positive person will enhance the quality of life. Positivity is like an aura, and you know you are a positive person when people start trusting you, random people become polite with you, colleagues at work start patronising you, and you start building rapport easily.

Be realistic: Do not try to become a saint. Becoming a positive person does not mean you can never have any negative emotion or encounter any negative situation. It is the overall attitude that matters. Don't get bogged down by failure, and disappointed when your expectations are not met. Mentally, you should always be calculating a way out of difficult situations come what may.

Experiment: Be a keen observer. Use everyday life incidents to see how you can manage them in a more positive manner. These will serve as perfect instances to turn your outlook more positive. For starters, contemplate how you could have better handled a situation by being less hostile and more indulgent. Come up with five ways that could have saved the day, and learn to take things at face value sometimes. Remember, your ability to trust the other person also reflects your genuineness.

Speech and body language: Try and make positive words a part of your daily lingo, and work on your body language in way that you come across as friendly and approachable. Look amused when something is amusing, laugh when something is funny, congratulate when someone's bought something new, and give others a chance to narrate their side of the story. Never think you are the only interesting, knowing one around.

Company: One way to becoming positive is to seek positive company as both positivity and negativity are infectious. If the people you spend most of your time with are grumpy or have a pessimistic standpoint, you'll find yourself mirroring the same emotions before a different set of people inadvertently. In order to inculcate positivity it is imperative that your friend circle is a positive, energetic, and a happy bunch. You'll find yourself carrying the same positivity everywhere you go.

Activities: Do not remain idle and brood. Take up positive activities with others or in isolation. Share a joke, narrate a pleasant incident, take part in sporting activities, go for a run in the evening after work, have healthy sex, and you'll find yourself bubbling with positive energy.

Take it easy: Everyday life is bound to give you shocks. Be prepared to minimise impact and shrug it off. For instance, you may get too hassled everyday while driving to work or trying to park your car. When you accept the fact that certain things cannot be changed, you'll be more at ease with yourself and those around too.

Learn yoga: Says yoga teacher and nutritionist, Abhilasha Kale, "Do pranayam everyday as it lets you focus and meditate. Not only does it secrete happy hormones but also creates a sense of awareness within you." With the help of yogic asanas you control your breathing, and by way of it, control your mind from wandering. Every time you do yoga, you feel a surge of positiveenergy through your body that calms your nerves, soothes your mind, elevates your mood, and not to mention enhances your level of tolerance.

Maintain a diary: Instead of recounting all events of the day, filter out only the positive ones and make a note of them. It could be anything trivial from your bus arriving on time, your mom cooking a delicious breakfast, to remembering to pay the bills on time. When we look for positivity in the little things that make our lives worthwhile, we leave no room for negativity. "Try consciously practising this for 10 days, and at the end of day ten when you read your diary back you'll only have memories of all the good things that happened to you," she asserts.

Say 'thank you': Thank god, thank your parents, friends, and thank yourself for all the hard work you did, for everything you achieved. Says Abhilasha, "Saying thank you frequently makes you humble, and a humble person is seldom cynical."

Try these methods, and you'll be surprised when others notice the change in you.
