U can carve YOUR own way !

In our team meeting, we saw a video which emphasized the importance of being kind, which has always been a rarity in today's competitive world.  The lessons were - Being kind won't make you rich or famous and that you still remain anonymous to the whole world but what you get in return is that feeling of love, you witness happiness and a distinct satisfaction at the end of the day which money simply can't buy.  But to be kind isn't always easy due to so many other emotions distracting us. Perhaps, it's also related to how one has been treated in the past or even being treated in the present. How can I be kind when I am not experiencing any kindness?

My kids have gifted this book on the eve of Father's Day. I have read this book and infact, I have this book at some corner of my place but that doesn't matter. What matters is the thought and the intent behind it.  Going to the internet, scanning and then zeroing in on a book - that's what matters. My kids might not be too much in to 'reading' yet but i am a little proud today that atleast they could muster this thought of 'gifting' a book. They are on the right track.. Someday and very soon they should hop on the bandwagon of readers too.. I will wait for that day.. Till that time, as I am waiting for my hairline fracture to heal, I will read this book once again.  On that account, I wish the Superman of every son & daughter's life a Happy Father's Day.

In this book, he reflects the influence of running Marathons & participating in Triathlons had on his writing & and even more important ..on his life.  I am listing down 15 such insights from the book - Considering some of his key observations on the themes of performance, aging, adventure & life Pain is inevitable.

This pretty much sums up the most important aspect of marathon running To keep on going, you have to keep up the rhythm. This is the important thing for long-term projects. Once you set the pace, the rest will follow. The problem is getting the flywheel to...
