Count Your Blessings......

The following is an anonymous interpretation which i thought i can share with everybody:
  • Think of it this way.If you live in a good home, have plenty to eat and can read, you are a member of a very select group. And if you have a good house, food, can read and have a computer, you are among the very elite.
  • If you woke up this morning with more health than illness...you are more fortunate than the million who will not survive this week.
  • If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation...you are ahead of 500 million people in the world.
  • If you can attend a church meeting without fear of harrasment, arrest, torture, or death...you are fortunate, more than three billion people in the world can't.
  • If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep...yor are richer than 75% of this world.
  • If you have money in the bank, in your wallet and spare change in a dish someplace..you are among the top eight percent of the world's wealthy.
  • If your parents are still alive and still married..you are very rare.
  • If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful...you are blessed because the majority can..but most do not.
  • If you cant hold someone's hand, hug them or even touch them on shoulder..you are blessed because you can offer healing touch.
  • If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing in that someone was thinking of you, and furthermore, you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world that cannot read at all.
  • Is'nt it better therefore, to just be grateful for whatever you have, rather than crib about what you don't??

i guess this is the most wonderful way to jumpstart your day..and looking forward for all the challenges that life throws at you.

Plz don go.....

Test cricket's legendary bowler, Shane Warne retired from international competition after the Ashes 2006, thus marking the end of the most glamorous and controversial carrers in the sports glorious history. I think Shane Warne is the grestest cricketer ever (from the time i am watching and following cricket) and it was the perfect retirement party for the showman who made is debut against India way back in January 1992. To take 1000+ wickets in both the versions of the game is simply breathtaking and salute to your versatility, skills, hardwork, mental strength and flexibility. This once-in-life time champion will continue to inspire a generation of kids to take up the art of leg spin. Thanks Warne for giving us everything you could ever give and in the process entertaining millions worldwide and i was privileged enough to watch ur flippers, zooters, wrong uns with bated breath. i just wish u were an Indian !!!

Pascal's Wager

It refers to the argument put forward by famous French mathematician Blaise Pascal to help a person arrive at the decision on the existence of GOD You better believe in god, Pascal argued, because if you are right, you stand to gain eternal bliss and if you are wrong it wont make any difference, anyway. But if you don't believe in god and if you turn out to be wrong, you are eternally damned, whereas if you are right, it makes no difference.

What are you going to be ?

The society around us has defined leadership in millions of ways and even when you search for the definition of a leader, google comes up with this - a person who leads or commands a group or an organization and that's were the narrative fails, if you ask me. A true 'leader' is the one who strives to create an environment where people can express themselves fearlessly, a trait which is very rare in a corporate world and usually not associated with being a leader but then that's where the 'difference of opinion' arise.  We have always associated a leader with a larger than life image who is followed by everybody but in reality what we need is a person who can lift everybody around him and make them even more smarter, and bigger. He gets the desired results but at the same time makes his team/people even better than he found them. A leader will always look and protect his tribe. On the other hand, managers get a set of tasks done by their employees on a daily basi...
