Possible

1) High aspirations do not mean setting grandiose goals, but setting stretch targets and continuously raising the bar.

2) Sri Sri Ravishankar says "stretching sound is music; stretching movement is dance; stretching smile is laughter; stretching mind is meditation; stretching life is celebration; stretching devotee is god; stretching feeling is ecstasy"

3) Life is not just a marathons interspersed with multiple sprint races. Prepare yourself for the same, one step at a time. Don't burn the candles at both ends and burn yourself out.

4) Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So sail away from the safe harbour. Expolre. Discover ... Mark Twain

5) Leadership is about vision, motivation, empowerment and mentoring. Management is about planning, measuring, decding and executing. They are not mutually exclusive and a pre-requiste for sucess is to be a good manager and a good leader.

6) The right question to ask yourself is what will I enjoy more, were will I contribute more?

7) As said in Upanishads:

"You are what your deep driving desire is

As is your desire, so is your will

As is your will, so is your act

As is your act, so is your destiny"

A long time ago, before the world was created and humans set foot on it, God had put all the human "qualities" in a separate room. Since all the qualities were bored they decided to play hide & seek."Madness" was one of the qualities and he shouted: "I want to count, I want to count!" And since nobody was crazy enough to want to seek "Madness", all the other qualities agreed. So "Madness" leaned against a tree and started to count: "One, two, three..."As "Madness" counted, the qualities went hiding."

Treason" hid in a pile of garbage.."Lie " said that it would hide under a stone, but hid at the bottom of the lake.And Madness continued to count "... seventy nine, eighty, eighty one..."

By this time, all the qualities were already hidden-except "Love ". For stupid as "Love " is, he could not decide where to hide. And! this should not surprise us, because we all know how difficult it is to hide "Love"."

Madness": "...ninety five, ninety six, ninety seven..."Just when "Madness" got to one hundred........."Love" jumped into a rose bush where he hide.

And Madness turned around and shouted: "I'm coming, I'm coming!"As Madness turned around, "Laziness" was the first to be found, because "Laziness" was too lazy to hide.

"Madness" searched madly and found "Lie"atthe bottom of the lake. One by one, Madness found them all - except Love.

Madness was getting desperate, unable to find Love.Envious of Love, "Envy" whispered to "Madness ": "You only need to find Love, and Love is hiding in the rose bush.""Madness" Jumped on the rose bush and he heard loud cry. The thorns in the bush had pierced "Loves" eyes.Hearing the commotion

God came into the room and saw what had happened. He got very angry and cursed "Madness" and said since "Love" has become blind because of u... ..u shall always be with him"And so it came about that from that day on, Love is blind and is always accompanied by Madness

Sometimes we spend time asking who isresponsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or withthe people we know. We miss out some warmth in human relationship to giveeach other support. Treasure what you have. Just a little story ....

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were aloving couple and the boy was the apple of their eyes. When the boy wasaround two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open.He was late for work so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it inthe cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot thematter. The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle andfascinated by its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonousmedicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed themother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned.She was terrified how to face her husband. When the distraught father cameto the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and utteredjust four words.

The husband just said "I Love You Darling"

The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a proactive behavior. Thechild is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point infinding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he have taken time to keepthe bottle away, this will not happen. No one to be blamed. She had alsolost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation andsympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her. If everyone can lookat life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problemsin the world.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, andfears. And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think. "

A successful marriage requires falling in love many times ----- with the same person."

It happened in a sports stadium.

Eight little girls were ready on the track to participate in the running event.

* Ready!

* Steady!!

* Bang!!!

As soon as the toy pistol fired, all eight girls started running.Hardly had they ran 10 to 15 steps, when one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down.She was bruised and started crying in pain. When the other seven girls heard her, they all stopped running, stood for a moment and ran back to where the girl had fallen down and was crying. One among them bent over, picked up the little girl and kissed her gently and enquired "Has the pain reduced now?" All the seven girls lifted this girl, pacified her, two of them held her firmly and they all joined hands together, walked together and reached the winning post.

The officials were shocked. The entire stadium resounded with the claps of the thousands of spectators. And do you know where this happened? It happened in India. YES. This happened in Hyderabad The sports event had been organized by the National Institute of Mental Health. All these "special" girls had come to participate in this event and they were "spastic" children.

Yes, they were mentally challenged. But they taught a lesson to the world.

They taught us Teamwork! Humanity! Equality among all.

They taught us that "successful people are those who take others along with them so that these people are not left behind".
