It is not the.... It is not the weakness that puts us down, it is the habits. It is not the anger that puts us down, it is the choice of words. It is not the loss that puts us down, it is the meaning we attach to the loss. It is not the feedback that puts us down, it is how we perceive the feedback. It is not the journey that makes us tired, it is the experience we had in the journey. It is not the mistakes that makes us feel guilty, it is the Inability to accept the mistake. It is not others mistakes that irritates us, it is the unwillingness to forgive them. It is not the debts that burdens us, it is the purpose for which we took it. It is not the future that worries us, it is the lack of preparedness to meet the future. It is not the change that bothers us, it is the resistance to change. Feel the symptoms and treat the causes M.L. Narendra Kumar

Can you drink a tea for Rs.100 in a 5 star? I replied I can but I will not do that 3. Can you eat 2 idlis? I was puzzled at this stage, I asked why are you asking me such questions? He said " I will tell you the reason before you reach your destination" I said " You sound interesting" however he was persistent about my 2 idlis and he said " you never answered about idlis" I said I can eat 2 idlis if it is veg chutney, I can eat 5, if it is non veg kurmas. He smiled and he asked " Are you a millionaire?&quo

Foot hills of the mountain Many people stand on the foot hills of the mountain and talk about the perceived danger on the top.

Some keeps sharing the inspiring stories of the climber Some keep thinking how to reach the top Only few reach the top. Few lay the road for others to reach the top Journey to the top is much rewarding than the speeches on the foot hills M.L.Narendra Kumar

With Power Comes the Responsibility or ??? Each employee is motivated in his own way, for some it is the nature of the job, for some it is the pay, for some it is promotions and the list is endless. Few look Promotion as a feather on their cap but for some it is a dream true, for some it is a long due & for some it is yet another additional burden. This article is not about promotion, it is about how people handle the power that comes along with the promotion. Let's classify the promoted employees as follows based on their behaviour: 1. Boss 2. Manager 3. Leader Boss - The word boss here is an autocratic person who uses his power to control the people under him. When a person behaves autocratically he generates fear and resentment among his subordinates who in turn develops negative attitude towards in their job as well as the organization. There is saying, employees don't quit the organization they quit their immediate bosses.
