Dreamer To Big Time Dreamer!

Today I was alone at home and was getting bored. I Stressed upon my fully loaded brain and started thinking about the things which kept me away from my goal. In my life I have always dreamt of doing something big like L.N Mittal, Amitabh Bachan, APJ Abdul kalam and many more. But I hesitated to tell it to any one in my surrounding. I guess that was the obstacle to my goal. I remembered a quote “Unless you say what your goal is , It always remains away, So push the envelope and say about it to everyone you come in contact”. I never said my pals that I want to be a superstar or a business Tycoon or a Youth Icon. I feared they would laugh at me.

This thoughts screwd my brain like anything. Fortunately at right time on right place , a quote clicked my brain which I have read some where.

The quote goes like this, “If people don’t laugh at you and your ideas at least once a week, you are not pushing the envelope.”

There it goes, the most motivational quote I have ever read. I started thinking about the people I have met till date. I felt like I’m tired of seeing boring people including my friends and me, afraid to take the road less travelled. Most of the things that fill us with fear never happen, so why let them keep you small?

Great people run towards their resistance and play out on the edges of their lives. And great companies and institutions spend far less time benchmarking others than creating new ways of delivering outrageous value to their customers. Why? because the world doen’t need a better clone. We don’t need more copycats. The world needs more human beings and enterprises that make us say ‘WOW’. The world needs more visionaries,dreamers and outright revolutionaries.

I love what Dhirubhai Ambani, said: “Success means never letting the competition define you. Instead , you have to define yourself based on a point of view you care deeply about.” Beautiful.

All innovators are initially laughed at. Just the way it is. They laughed at COLUMBUS when he said the earth was round. They laughed at the WRIGHT BROTHERS, who vowed a human being could fly. They laughed at the founder of EVIAN, who believed people would pay money for water. WHo’s laughing now? I guess the universe does favour the brave. People pay for originality. Let them laugh. Let them call u crazy. Say true to your vision. Dream bigger. Don’t be ordinary..

CALANTHA FASHION SHOW.

YESTerday night was a very different experience for me. One of my dearest friend has invited me to a Fashion show called 'Calantha' held by his college called HAMSTECH. Firstly I was not willing to go but ultimately had to go because of my friend. I got dressed up in a white shirt covered with a white Blazer and a skinny jeans. That was for the first time in my life I was dressing so heavily. The white blazer gave me a brassy look. As I and friends entered the gate of Marriot hotel, we were astonished and surprised to see people wearing unusual clothes and preserving show off. We went and took our seats in the first row so that we can have a clean look at the ramp.
The show begin with three beautiful women overwhelming the ramp (miss India {earth},{ universe}, {world}). They looked amazingly exquisite. The host for the evening were Nial and Manasi Scott. The show was all about the designs of the best students of Hamstech.

JUDGES: To this evening of fashion dreams and haute design, to this evening of stylish revelry and elegant festivities, to this evening of high powered energy and enthralling creations, there were many and many flowers blosssomed with the red carpet entry of Judges like MS. LARA DUTTA, MR. WENDELL RODRICKS, MR.VIKRAM RAIZADA and none othere than the mentor of Hamstech MS.NEETA LULLA.


COLLECTIONS AND FLOW OF THE SHOW:
The show started with the "NOMADIC FELICITY" collection by a student named shireen and Gayatri..... These collections were followed by SERENGATI COLLECTION, LUNATICS LIMITED COLLECTIN,BATTLE OF RAOYALS,NIZAMI MAGNIFICENCE,BON VOYAGE STARRY CONSPIRACIES and many more collections. The models were ravishing and gorgeous. Spotted among the models was GWENN of "V"get gorgeous fame.

The showstopper of the evening was none other rhan SOnu sood of Ashiq Banaya Apne movie. I was lucky enough to get a chance to meet them all and get pics and autograph of them all. The evening was fantstic.

Lastly i would like to conclude this post with a quote "'style' is an expression of individualism mixed with charisma. Fashion is somethig that comes after style"

PERSONAL CHANGE

Today is one of the boring day of my life as i had nothing to do and had not even met a single friend. This day I was Just exploring my house and was browsing all along day on net. Suddenly there was a kindling of a smile on my boredom. Today I had a pleasure to speak(chat) wid one of my friend who all inspired me to develop ma writing and presentation skills. I asked my friend to go through my blog and suggest me some tips to improve it. She was overwhelmed reading my postings. She was astonished and she praised me for it. That was the first time i realised that the comments passed by my friends happend to be a wish for me to improve in this area.

I started thinking about my journey from an ordinary english using boy to an extraordinary and improved guy. I started revinding the things that happened throughout this journey of mine. I remembered about a story i have read somewhere, the story goes like this:


The author of the story who is a lawyer meets his friend after a long time. The friend arrives at the house of the author for some discussion over a cup of tea. Spotting the cup of tea on the table, the friend started to pour into the authors waiting cup. He poured untill the cup was full--but then he kept on pouring! Tea started to trickle down the sides of the cup and into the saucer. At first the author watched silently. Then he couldn't take it any more.
"My friend wat are you ding?,My cup is overflowing. No matter how hard you try, no more will go in!" The author yelled impatiently.
The man looked at the author for a long time. "Please don't take it wrong way. I really respect you." the friend remarked. He added "Just like this cup, you seem to be full of your own ideas. And how can any more go in ..........Until you first empty your cup".

After reading this story I was Really Struck by the truth of the words told by the author's friend. He was right. My many years in the conservative world, doing the same thing every day with the same people who thought the same thoughts every day had filled my cup to the brim. I couldnt remember the last time i had read the book which did not belong to my academic syllabus. I began to realize that the sterile world I had grown accustomed to had dulled my creativity and limited my vision.

These thoughts provoked and acted like oil to my inner burning creativity.. I remembered my friends who have encouraged, criticized and commented upon my verbal ability. I made up my mind to read as many books as i can and to develope my self as much as I can.. That lead to the personal change people around me notice in me.

Lastly the most inspiring quote which inspired me alot was "question asked me was when do u read , I replied when dont i read" as quoted by BENJAMIN FRANKLIN.
As i conclude, i would like to thank Vishnukanth Heda, my school friend for showing me the way to write blogs and inspiring me.

KRISH PERSPECTIVE

The character Krish is my hero. Recently I had been to my aunts house. After a long time i have met my cousins who have come to hyderabad a couple of days before. We all were having some snacks at the do, when ma youngest cousin questioned me. " Bhaiya, is Krish a real person?" It made us all laugh.We had alot fun at the place. When I returned home, the question asked by ma cousin made me think. If Krish were a human being, this world would be a better place.Seriously. Here are four lessons Krish's character can teach us to get more joy from life.


BE THE ETERNAL OPTIMIST: The guy(Krish) always sees the best in any situation. Your thinking is really does shape your reality. Because Krish looks for the best he finds it.


VALUE PEOPLE: MY self instrospection has made me think that, in my life I've valued very few people whom i can count on my one hand. And thats the biggest blunder i had made for my self. I should have valued everyone however and whomever they are. I thought for a while that Krish knows whats friendship is all about. He loves everyone around him. He value a circus joker and helps him. Krish knows that, respect and putting people first are two most important elements for strong relationship.


BE A ORIGINAL: kRISH is one of a kind. Too many of us are afraid to be overselves. So we give up our dreams to follow the crowd. Tragic. " TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE." wrote SHAKESPEARE. Have the courage to be your true and gretest you.,
WARREN BUFFET (the worlds richest person) quoted, "THERE CAN'T BE TWO YOUS."


LAUGH AND HAVE FUN:There's no point in being succesful but sad. Makes no sense. Yes, reach for the mountaintop but enjoy the climb as well. Life wasn't meant to be ordeal (sorrowful). It was meant to be a celebration. So have big time fun as you chase and catch your most cherished dreams.


These were the four new things I learnt from the question asked...........

The Two Magical Words "THANK YOU"

I sometimes get a little bothered by ingratitude. I try to treat people well but many times unintentionally hurt them. But i also do pray that they win.Sometimes after helping any of ma friend,relative,teachers etc, I'd just love to hear two magic words: "THANK YOU."


Yes, i know that if you do something good for someone with the expectation of a reward it's not a gift _ it's a trade. And i also know that good things happen to people who do good things.And i know that life has a very fair accounting system and as one sows, one grows. But I'd like to still hear those two magical words often.

Recently i had breakfast with ma cousin who is working as a head group manager in some company { cannot reveal his name}. He's helped so many people in his organisation to realize their highest potential as leaders and as humans. He looked at me and said: "Rohit,after all these years in business, i can count on one hand the number of people who have told me that they appreciate what i've done for them."


I believe I'm offring you a very real point. According to a reasearch, the number one reason employees leave their organisationis not because they were not being paid enough, they leave because they were not given enough appreciation.

Mr.Arun Sarin, the former CEO of Vodafone observed: "the first responsibility of a leader is to define reality . the last is to say Thank You."


So today, take a moment and think about the people in your life who need to be cherished, appreciated and told that their suuport has been helpful, offer a heartful and enthusiastic "THANK YOU."

Get Great At Life

i'm 20 yrs old. So i'm at quatre time filled.assuming I live untill I'm 80 (and thats a big assumption because I've learned that the only thing you can expect in life is the unexpected). I've become more philosophical these days. I'm less willing to waste time. Less willing to listen to negative people. Less willing to miss an opportunity to be loving. I've also started reading obituaries.

When i read of the lives others have lived. I'm offered clues on what's most important in life. Obituaries of life well lived actually shares consistent themes, i have discovered. Family,Friendship,Contribution to community, the need to take calculated risks etc.I've yet to read an obituary that says, "he died peacefully in his sleep surrounded by his lawyer, his stockbroker and his accountant." To lead a beautiful life, i suggest that you need to ask the kinds of question that will provoke you to think deeply and connect with what matters more. I myself believe in a quote ,quoted by sir.Dale carnegie which says "Good questions lead to excellent answers and greater clarity. And Greater clarity is the DNA of authentic success and personal greatness.

Here are the five big questions that i hope will cause you to go deep and become more philosophical about what truly countsin your life.Most people dont dicover how to live until it's time to die.But by then it's too late. Ask yourself these five questions today. Imagine that today is the last day of your life and u are lying on your deathbed. Then ask yourself :

1)Did I dream richly?

2)Did I live fully?

3)Did I learn to let go?

4)Did I love well?

5)Did I earned some tears?

My hope is that the answers you arrive at will help you to live with more authenticity... Lastly would like to quote "You cant hit the target you cant even see", like wise you cant solve the problem which u never come across...

My First Vote....

16th april 2009.....{my first vote}
Yesterday Nite I was in a big scriple.... the next morning was going to be the day on which i was gonna vote. There were many thoughts provoking in my fully loaded brain. I was in a big confusion, for whom to exercise my valuable vote. I started thinking about Indian Voting System and was comparing it with the voting system in France and United States of America.. I was thinking that "Why do people call Indian Democracy as the biggest democracy" . The voting system in India is far much worst than in any backward nation.. We people Vote for Concellors, Member of Legislative Assembly , Member of Parliament and these people in turn select and elect our Prime Minister and to an extent our President. Most of the candits standing for M.l.a's post and M.P's post are not graduated and in most of the cases they are not even educated and most of them maintains a wide criminal records. Why dont India opt for a better and effective voting and political system was the questine asked by my so called brain. Why cant We have a voting system as of America which is direct in attitude and nature. Why cant we have a compulsary education or a course to be completed to get into politics. Todays Politics is no more a Gentle and kind mans profeesion, instead it has become a rowdies and homicides collection.. Next day i had to vote as it was not only my right but also my duty. iI did vote, but sorry cant reveal you any thing about the party whom I voted. I actuall want to see better leaders to lead Indian and To lead an Indian........Jai Hind.
