  The stories behind everything we use    The furniture we use has a craftmanship story to tell The garments we use have a design story to tell The gadgets we use have skill stories to tell The food we eat has a passionate story to tell The vehicle in which we transport has safety stories to tell The electrical power we consume has a risky story to tell The water we drink has a hardship story to tell The jewellery we wear has an artistic story to tell The entertainment we have has a creative story to tell. Behind every story, there is a labourer, and, inside every labourer, there is hardship and determination to be appreciated. There is a labourer behind everything we use and each labourer has a story to tell; let us salute those labourers who toil for us to be comfortable in our lives. Happy May Day M.L.Narendra Kumar

  Being Rich An Interaction with a Monk A Youngman asked a monk, "what should I do to become rich?" The Old Monk asked, "What do you mean by becoming rich?" The Youngman said, "I want to earn more money and possess more wealth." The monk smiled and said, "you have come to the wrong place, you should have gone to a financial consultant." The Youngman asked, "Is there not a means of becoming rich through your teachings?" The monk said, "We don't teach, we question; through your answers, you either learn, relearn or unlearn." The Youngman smiled and said, "you are right." The monk said, now let me help you understand what is being rich.  A man who walks on the road is rich and, the man who travels in a luxury car is also rich; it depends upon how they define it. Some are rich in knowledge, whereas some are rich in values.  Some are rich in mind, whereas some are rich in heart.  The Youngman stops the monk and asks,

  Targets in business When employees set a target, their families will benefit from it, whereas when employers set a target, many families will benefit from it. As an employee working for organizations who aspire to reach the peak, such an employer's vision can be a route to your future entrepreneurship journey. By resisting targets, you are losing your ability to discover your strengths in you. A beaten iron becomes strong and a polished diamond shine. Never miss the opportunity to become strong like an Iron and shine like a diamond. M.L Narendra Kumar

  Life   Some wish for a good life Some work towards a good life Some accept life as it comes Some see life as just life. Some wonder what life is. Some keep talking about others' lives. Some keep thinking about life after death Some discuss Past life It doesn't matter what you do with your life based on the above list, but remember, life is a gap between birth and death; you alone can fill the gap by defining what your life should be.   Life is an empty notebook; lead it in such a way it becomes a worthy book to be published.   M.L. Narendra Kumar

  Books   In my childhood, it was exciting to receive my textbooks at the beginning of the academic year and it was even more exciting to see the bounded books. There were some favourite subjects and those textbooks were closer to my heart. While the teacher was reading the book, I used to underline a few sentences and mark them as very important. Sometimes, when I forgot to carry my textbook, my friend used to share it with me. Those textbooks not only taught me the subject, but they also taught me the importance of taking care of my belongings too.    I was introduced to Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Dr Kotnis and many more through Amar Chitra Katha. I learnt the need for humour through Tinkle, Tin-Tin, Archies etc. These books introduced me to the world of reading.    During my college days, novels like James Hadley Chase took me to the world of imagination and, as I grew, I was drawn to my filmmaking passion and started reading books on filmmaking.    When I stepped into
