how lucky i m

Yes..I feel lucky as I got one of my old favourite freind back in my life.....It was just co incidence...The gap of more than 15 years...It gives great feeling and I must thank GOD for this favour...

Performance & Position!

Performance & Position!

A Priest dies and is awaiting his turn in line at the Heaven's Gates. Ahead of him is a guy, fashionably dressed, in dark sun glasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket & jeans.

God asks him: Please tell me who you are, so that I may know whether to admit you into the kingdom of Heaven or not.
The guy replies: I am MALABARI, KSRTC driver from Kerala!!!

God consults his ledger… smiles and says to the Mallu: Please take this silken robe & gold scarf and enter the Kingdom of Heaven...

Now it is the priest's turn. He stands erect and speaks out in a booming voice: I am Pope's Assistant so & so, Head Priest of the so & so Church for the last 40 years.

God consults his ledger & says to the Priest: Please take this cotton robe & enter the Kingdom of Heaven...

'Just a minute' says the agonized Priest. 'How is it that a foul mouthed, rash Driver is given a Silken robe & a Golden scarf and me, a Priest, who's spent his whole life preaching your Name & goodness has to make do with a Cotton robe?'

'Results my friend, results,' shrugs God.

'While you preached, people SLEPT; but when he drove, people PRAYED'

It's PERFORMANCE & not POSITION that ultimately counts...


So freinds....perform well, have a passion for your work...build a building and not a wall or not just putting stones.... Be human and not machine....

i m renting my heart

I am renting my heart again.....

I am renting my heart again
somebody reside without complain

scars of past are carved beneath
pangs of grief is under wreath
smile has withered away in the corner
life is still sad like a mourner

I am renting my heart again
somebody reside without complain

darkness is awake inside my room
future seems like a bloody doom
hope is dead within these rifts
deep inside me fury drifts

I am renting my heart again
somebody reside without complain

wake me up from this endless sleep
hold me back from this great steep
accept me as I am torn and broke
mend my wounds with caressing stroke

I am renting my heart again
somebody reside without complain

seal me inside your soul forever
shield me so that I am not hurt ever
knock on my heart as breeze of dove
just pay rent of unconditional love

I am renting my heart again
somebody reside without complain

hellooooo

Of Building Bridges


I only have myself to blame. I got so busy pursuing my own charms that I forgot about life. I made promises that I didn’t even try keeping. How can I ask her to promise me happiness again? It doesn’t matter now that I feel sorry for not being there, when she needed me. By what right do tell her that I am in need now?

I couldn’t go on without knowing if she even needed me. Did it matter to her anymore? She didn’t see the world like we saw it before. Maybe she learnt to see through eyes that I didn’t have. I tried to learn until I was tired. God knows I tried.

I feel tired too, of constantly being in pursuit of happiness. Happiness was here all along. Like bright sunshine in the house while I was lost among the woods. I find my way back home to find the sky cloudy, the room empty and my heart quiet and dull. Such is the irony of life.

I didn’t know if she would ever come back. I had to move on. she didn’t say a word when I said goodbye. she wasn’t even angry. I strained my ear to listen to her call out, ready to turn around. she never did. Or maybe the river between us was too wide for me to notice.

I let a lot of water flow before I thought of building the bridge across the river. She even lent me a rope but I didn’t take it. I waited for her to build it while I sat on the island. Now I don’t even know if I’ll find her on the other side.

success & luck

So easy to dismiss the success of The Great Ones in business, sports, science or the arts as "lucky". But success doesn't just show up. It's always earned. High achievement isn't the result of "destiny" but desire - and acute determination.>From Dhirubhai to Narendra Modi and from Amitabh Bachhan to KAtrina Kaif, dive deep into the stories of the best of the best and you'll see they're are all thinking the same thoughts and doing strikingly similar things. Don't buy into the following 5 Lies of Lucky: 1. Successful people don't work hard - they just happen to be at the right place at the right time. Sure, timing makes a difference (just ask Amitabh). But business superstars not only outthink their competition - they outwork them. Few things are as mission-critical to leadership and winning as blood, sweat and tears.2. Successful people had a smoother path and more lucky breaks. Nope. The people who have achieved the most are generally those who have failed the most. Success is a numbers game and those who have reached the mountaintop were those who simply refused to lose (and turned every stumbling block into a stepping stone). Amitabh was rejected by All India Radio just due to his voice. But rather than shutting down, he regrouped and reinvented.3. Successful people are born motivated. Motivation is a learned sport. To play at peak and light a fire in your belly takes daily devotion. The best among us are up while the world around them sleeps, listening to inspirational cds, reading heroic biographies, planning their days/weeks/months/lives and basically preparing themselves to deliver their leadership best. We all need to refill the well of passion and inspiration every morning.4. Successful people are "one person shows". Behind Reliance's Dhirubhai lived a superb group of followers. Alongside Dhirubhai walks a remarkable band of believers. Can't do the dream without the right team. If you are really serious about getting to wow on each of your 2010 business and personal goals, make sure you have the right people and resources to help you get there. To paraphrase John Donne: "no person is an island".5. Successful people are geniuses. According to the latest research, genius isn't a natural trait - it's a learned skill. The "genius research" has found that every so-called "genius" invested the equivalent of 10 years singularly focused on their chosen sport/business/craft. Mastery arrives when we focus on only a few." Commit to being brilliant at just a few passions in your life and cut out all the rest. And then practice on these obsessions daily. In time, you too will be recognized as a master. And that's my great wish for you.
