Some People  Some people fabricate lies; Some assemble the truth  Some people spread hate; some plant love  Some people sedate wants; some vaccinate needs  Some people madly believe; some critically question    Some people install fear; some inject courage  Some blindly forward; some evaluate before forwarding  Some cry over a spilled milk; some order for a fresh milk  Some keep glorifying the past; some work towards the glory  Some wait for things to happen, some makes things happen.  Your growth & peace depends upon you Which part of the “some” you are depends you’re upon Attitude towards life M.L.Narendra Kumar
Divided by; United by We are divided by hate, it's time to be United with peace We are divided by anger, it's time to be United with dialogues We are divided by arguments, it's time to be United on common grounds We are divided by misunderstanding, it's time to be United by understanding each other We are divided by differences, it's time to be United by respecting the uniqueness We are divided by conflicts, it’s time to be United by collaboration We are divided by intolerance, it's time to be United by patience  We are divided by religion, it's time to be United as humans We are divided by states, it's time to be United as a nation We are divided by nations, it's time to be United as a planet It takes few seconds to divide but it might take few decades to unite Let's stay United to celebrate the human race M.L.Narendra Kumar
Conversation- Car with a dent will sell but not a character with a dent A youngster in a two-wheeler talks over the mobile and bumps on a car. The car owner comes to check, the car and sees a dent below the rear lights. The two-wheeler rider sitting on bike tells "it is a small dent" The car owner tells "I can correct the dent, but there is a big dent in your character  Though you know it was your mistake, you should have told sorry, such behavior requires tinkering  When you know that I came out to check my car, you didn't even bother to come closer to inspect the car, instead you were, casually sitting and make a statement, such behavior requires welding The way you are behaving requires a wholesome maintenance. I can either service my car, drive it without attending the dent or use it for a while & sell it. Remember, A car with a dent will sell but not a character with a dent M.L. Narendr
Sales Lesson on a Rainy Day Way back in 1997, I was running a sales training franchisee centre in Chennai. My office was located in a prime area in a commercial complex. In those days we didn't have the concept of Coffee Vending machine, hence we used to order for Tea/coffee from a local tea shop.  The tea shop had boys who used to deliver tea/coffee as per the preference of the commercial establishments, in case we have guest, we will call the tea shop and place the order.  On a heavy rainy day, my team couldn't go to the field and hence we were chatting in the office. We had young Tea boy, who used to relate with us well and he was also fast & prompt in serving us. On that rainy day, we did consume more tea & coffee than our normal quantity. Since, it was raining heavily we decided to have our evening tea early & hence our order was delivered immediately despite of heavy rains. In the evening the tea boy came to collect the flask and

Every day, he sees her while he goes to his work and he also sees her during an evening walk.

The young man was excited and couldn’t wait for the sun to rise and he was mentally preparing to propose, with less sleep and anxiety he woke up. After finishing his morning routine, he rushed to the nearby gift shop to pick up a card and bouquet.   After a few minutes he reached
Poor Customer Orientation Invites Competitors ( Lessons from Chennai Auto drivers)   There is only one boss. The customer & he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else.” -Sam Walton The above statement holds true and we had witnessed companies pulling down their shutters and people losing their jobs because the customers felt, they no more needed the products or services offered by those companies. Imagine, if Attitude displayed by the people is negative towards the customer, what will be the consequences such companies will face. The reason behind penning down this article is to emphasise the importance being customer oriented in business. I was waiting on a busy main road for my business associate to pick me for a meeting, during the waiting time I was just checking my mobile for messages, an auto rikshaw driver stopped closer to me and offered his service, which I politely refused by stating
Interaction Pride looked at Failure and said "I pity you" Success intervened and said "Pride, I pity" Pride sarcastically smiled and asked "why should you pity me?" Success said "For your innocence" Pride said "I am not innocent" Success said "Pride, I am successful because I stepped on failure and I do realize that, it is failure who taught me how to succeed. At this moment I do know that I am standing on failure but you are so innocent that you have not yet realized that you are sitting on my shoulders" Success also said "Do remember I am your master, I have a choice either to carry you or carry humility on my shoulders" I just experimented with you & I have decided to bid farewell to you.
