Guess who am I?

  Guess who am I?   I am the key to your curiosity. I am the key to your creativity. I am the key to your enthusiasm. I am the key to your unconditional love. I am the key to your forgiveness. I am the key to your Determination. As and when you age, you stop using me and lock yourself in the world of worries and fear. Remember, the above keys can help you face life easily and solve problems peacefully. I am the child in you who is always ready to cry and laugh with you. Never lose me; losing me is losing yourself. M.L. Narendra Kumar      

In the Mind

  In the Mind   Most battles are lost in the mind before being fought on the ground. Most of the ideas are killed in the mind before they are discussed. Most of the words are buried in the mind before they are expressed. Most of the love is hidden in the mind before it is proposed. Most initiatives are held in the mind before the hands are raised. Most decisions are struck in the mind before they are to be taken. Most of the problems remain a mystery before they need to be root-caused Most of the talent is tangled in the mind before it is displayed. Most of life is wasted debating in the mind before it is lived. Instead of mulling in the mind, it is better to act. If it is a success, let us not take it to our head; if it is a failure, let us not take it to our heart; let's keep doing what we should do.   M.L.Narendra Kumar

Let’s Relive our childhood.

  Let’s Relive our childhood.   When we sat in the school, we never asked our friends which religion they belonged. We never asked whether they were a pure vegetarian when we shared our lunch. When we hugged each other during successful moments, we never asked what their caste was. We were more interested in creating happy moments and willing to stand with each other during difficult times. We were more secular and democratic without even understanding the constitution or politics, that's because we respected the friendship. But today it is surprising to see the same grown-ups in WhatsApp groups, who forward messages against other religions, discuss anti-religion, nations and spread hate messages. Let us ingrain the hard truth that by defending our religion, caste and national pride, we are offending our friends in our own country and other countries, too. Let us keep our religious ideology, political ideology, and caste feelings to ourselves and use our What...

Geometry and Mathematics of Life

  Geometry and Mathematics of Life   There is no Alternative for hard work. When hard work and Smart work pair together, the corresponding effect will be a success. When academics and extracurricular activities are adjacent, there is linear growth and chances for vertical take-off. When laziness starts intersecting, there is a transversal impact called failure and rejection, which is the opposite of success and recognition.   M.L.Narendra Kumar  

Mistake- What you can take from it.

  Mistake- What you can take from it.   A mistake is not just a mistake; when you carefully examine it, you can learn from it, evaluate your competencies, and think creatively to overcome it. Next time you commit a mistake, ask the following questions. 1. Why did this mistake happen? 2. What have I learned from the mistake? 3. How can I avoid such mistakes in future? 4. What should I teach others from my mistakes? 5. What skills and knowledge should I develop to overcome such mistakes in the future?   Just take a few minutes to reflect upon your recent mistake; you can convert your mistakes into learnings and your learnings into actions.   M.L.Narendra Kumar

Will to Skill

  Will to Skill Willingness is not just a word; it is a quality that breeds many other attributes. Our ability to do anything starts with our willingness.   Sometimes, managers find it challenging to identify the reason for non-performance and decide to train the employee in a specific domain; at the end of the training, they don't get the desired output post the training.   It is better to determine the subordinate's willingness before nominating them for any skilling or reskilling programs; when we don't find their willingness, we kill our time and the subordinates' time.   If a person is willing to learn, he will identify the ways and means to learn, but if he is not ready to learn, he will not even bother to open a reading material in his inbox.   The old saying is - You can lead a   horse near the water, but you can't make him drink. But the new phrase is - Always lead a thirsty horse near the water, which will not require motivationa...

Hate

  Hate   Hate H urts people. Hate A lienates people. Hate T riggers hate. Hate E liminates relationship.   Holding on to hate is holding onto a bomb that can be detonated at any time.   M.L.Narendra Kumar

Complex

  Complex   Suppose you think somebody is superior to you. In that case, you are suffering from an inferiority complex, whereas if you think somebody is inferior to you, you are suffering from a superiority complex.   Remember, both inferiority and superiority complex are sufferings in the mind rather than reality. Nobody is above us, and nobody is below us; we are humans with the same emotions and feelings.   If we realise our strengths and weaknesses, neither inferiority complex nor superiority complex will occupy our mind. M.L.Narendra Kumar
