At 5pm on Jan 3rd I believed that I would get inspired by a speech. At that hour I believed things would change in my life. Beliefs they either make you or break you was the topic that Mr. T T Rajan was about to talk. This was my 2nd attendance at the Alma Mater program.
RULE1: A belief held at the beginning of the journey defines the journey. What you believe you can do you will end up doing that. What you believe you can’t do end up doing nothing. For it is only the mind that makes the man himself.
RULE 2: Mind is called the factory of a man. It churns out different thoughts and ideas. What you think ultimately is what you become because the mind instructs your thoughts, actions, behavior, thereby your character. Your character strongly decides the position that you will hold in the society.
A beautiful story goes:
A guy was talking to his friend. He said that he was so happy though his father passed away few days before. His friend was unusual and asked why? He replied saying “About 1500 of them attended my father’s funeral. He is not a popular artist or character but he has done so many good things that the entire village came to pay their last respects”. I was so moved by the story. Simple but very strong to have a strong character.
RULE 3: We have say to ourselves that our failures are no more. It is time for us to leave behind the failures and start to the winning ways.
A beautiful story goes:
I had a distant friend or relative whatever of mine who is now working in IBM technologies. He failed his CA course 8 attempts i.e. nearly 4 years and ended up successful the ninth attempt only on the border line. He said to himself that enough of failures and went out to a great company holding one of the prestigious posts. The takeaway here is not that failures must be more. The mind must be tuned to avoid failures and work towards success.
RULE 4: Your past need not be the same as your future. Suppose you had been the School Topper in 12th Exams it is not necessary you will do the same in your university and the vice versa. You must day to yourself that my past has been bad and not my future. I would be one of the most ethical people leading a luxurious life. Only attitude and words always repeated becomes action. Your action defines your goal.
I really loved being at his session and wish could continue attending the journey of my belief.

Ahead of a New Year
S Satish
It is almost upto 365 days of 2009. When I look back, I feel I am lost somewhere away from track. It is a culture almost common to everyone to take up a resolution on Jan 1 and forget it on Jan 2nd. Most of them. But I would not dare generalise. I would rather give credit to the ones who take it up seriously and follow close to 100% perfection.
With X-Mas tomorrow and a 2010 in few more days I would wish to share with you a piece of thought that I normally share with my friends and others.
Everyone takes a resolution. Good to have a change. Agreed. But the moment you break the resolution, you fall in your eye short of the target. To make it more clear, you are not able to promise what you have said to yourself. That is quite bad.
When you are not able to fulfill a promise for someone you come up with a variety of reasons for not doing so. But what reason can you come up with on yourself. You know why? Thats self-assessment.
Now that you have a resolution on hand, try not to say it again and again. When you do so you create a pressure on yourself. One said Resolutions are meant to be breaken. But I strongly believe that they are the ones who mould us into better beings.
Suppose you resolute not to get up late in the mornings, you must bio-tune your body to get up early. That doesnt mean you dont sleep all through the night. Only strong and clear mind-set can change the attitude.
Believe me It is all in the mind. You can browse this article to get more insight on what committment means: http://iamsat.blogspot.com/2009/06/dinacharya.html

Yes You Can!
Continued from the earlier Yes You Can
There are instances where people are just led by their emotions and the opinion of strangers. They are much bothered about the comments that other people pose on them. Actually I pity those people who are a victim of those strangers.
Life offers you two choices. 1. You do it 2. You leave it
One said that "Try hard and do what you like, or else you will be forced to like what you do".
SO TO SUM UP
1. Dont get affected by Failures and even Success for that matter.
2. Try hard and achieve what you want to become
3. Dont ignore anybody coz they may be a pillar to you at any point in time
4. Success is a reward to sincerity
5. Look at Failures and Success in the same eye and heart
6. Failures are Success Delayed and Not Denied
7. Look at people who have achieved. They have come out after a long battle of struggle
8. History has recognized those who have fought with themselves, their personality, their efforts
Hence when you flunk it means that you are shaping your personality still better.
THIS POST IS SPECIALLY DEDICATED TO MY FRIEND WHO IS INTO THE PIT OF STRUGGLES.

Yes You Can!
The success stories are the ones that were considered "The impossible". Nothing in this world is impossible. Dont ask me if someone could move the mountains. Let me make you understand that they were done in the past by the Gods and Angels of the world. Okay! Moving closer to Success Stories I would wish to impact you few examples to motivate your soul.
1. Bill Gates: This Microsoft owner Gentlemen was dropped out of Harvard College. After the hard phased life he has got to the stand of the Multi millionaire with almost every desk working under his intellect.
2. Roger Bannister: He is an athelete who finished a mile within 4 minutes. A doctor said "A mile in 4 minutes could kill a man". He did the impossibe in 3.59 minutes.
3. M K Gandhi: Our Bapu raised out the need of India's freedom without raising his voice. One must take a look at the film "Gandhi" acted by Ben Kingsley.
4. Abdul Kalam: Our former President Mr. A P J Kalam was distributing Tamil newspaper on the streets of Rameshwaram for a maeagre income. His lesson shows that Success is not into the head and difficulties are not into his heart.
5. Late Dhirubhai Ambani: Dhiru saab was a LPG attendant before business. His father had no money accumulated for him to start his establishment. Lesson here is that "Anyone can become a Millionaire by his hard and smart work provided sincere.
Always in life there are two ends. One is Success and the other is failure to succeed. Failure to succeed can be due to variety of reasons. But the fact to be understood here is that
Success into head and Failure into heart doesnt make a good soul. Hence for say strive to Succeed and enjoy the fruits of Success.
