My idols

You know I do not actually care about everything that happens in this world. who does anyways?!

I am interested in what i am interested in. And there are some people I highly admire in each of those fields. These people inspire me. They continue to define the underlying reasons at times for what I do. Yes, they inspire me. I call comfortably call them my idols.

Lets look at some of my passions and the people I admire in that field;-

Business- I admire a lot great great businessmen who have changed the world. They are reason for the kind of lifestyle we live today. For example, I can write this blog because Bill Gates and Microsoft help me have a computer with the software that runs them. Google helpe me find anything i want. Sunil Mittal puts voice into my Mobile phone. And the likes.

However, I must identify someone who inspires me the most for his attitude towards the business, his personality, for he is the brand. I love Richard Branson. I love him. His life has been a dream. Incredible. The way he has acheived whatever he has achieved without giving a damn what the world thinks of him. There are hardly many management books which won't have a mention of him.

Yes, my idol in Business-----Richard Branson

Politics and Public Speaking----i love Barack Obama. Every time I hear him speak, something within me, changes. He inspires me to the core. I have read his autobiography and a know about his beginning and life. It's not fluff. He has had a tremendous life which was not easy growing up as a Black American in a white prejudiced country and with a father who only saw him once!!!

He just received the Nobel Peace Prize. I do not want to get into its rightness but I know he stands for what he says. Till BO happened, I did not have any idols in Politics, anywhere. Now i have.


Writing---oh, this one is tough. I read a lot and many people through their writing have left indelible marks on my conscience. I aim to be a professional writer also. So, this one is tough. I know I cannot ignore Dale Carnegie, who completely changed me as a person. Ayn Rand's writing is like a intellectual orgasm at every page. Sensational. I love her writing, although I picked the 'fountainhead' very late. And Jack Canfield who has categorically broken down every single element of success which I swear by. So these 3 make the list, although there are many more.

The marriage of my sister!

My sister just got married. I love her and I miss her, although I won't tell her.

you know, she has a new home now. she actually has two homes now. we have new relatives. this was perhaps the most important decision we have made as a family. It looks a wise decision made so far.

i like my brother in law or this marriage would not have happened i guess ;) for such a selfish creature I am haha. Actually my sister also likes him, which I believe is more important.

the thing is, you see, when a girl gets married, she changes. I think the same is true for a man also. It is a transformation or at least supposed to be so.

I think i love my sister even more now. I have high respect for her, for her love and the contribution she has made to this family. I know it. I also know she will make a similar contribution to the family she is a part of now.

i am happy i was here to attend the marriage and be a part of it. it could have been otherwise. i do not know what meetu seeks when she looks in our eyes now, after marriage. i do not know what is she thinking. I do not know what kind of thoughts are crossing her mind. I am happy that her husband will take care of her. He and his family are really loving.

I do not know what the hell have i been writing! anyways, all the best meetu. i am always around :)

love

love is a tickle. You know it will bother you and you also know it will pleasure you. you resist it. you invite it ;)

Animalistic Thoughts :D

every morning in africa, a lion wakes up. it knows it must run faster than the fastest gazelle or it will starve to death. every morning in africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the lion or it will be eaten to death.

it does not matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, BETTER BE RUNNING


Run like a Tiger
Love like a dog
Sleep like a cat
Dance like a peacock

love

'love' is a verb, when you say, 'i love you'. if it's not felt by the one you claim to love, worthless! it's the essence of who you stand for and stand by. don't trivialize it. don't. say 'i love u' if you really mean it, can show it, will do to whatever it takes to keep these words meaningful.

Fighters

Fighters, fight.

it ain't about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. how much you can take and keep moving forward. that's how winning is done..
