Lost the Way

 Lost The Way....... A short story..... A group of Stanford graduates were given a task to show their Entrepreunership qualities. Each group was given a 5$ bill and 2hrs to make maximum money followed by a 3min presentation on how they went about it. The first group utilized the 5$ and purchased materials ex Lemonade stand,Lottery tickets,Burger stand etc.Sold the materials for 2 hrs and made money. The 2nd group thought 5$ worthless. They purchased the reservation slot in a top restaurant. For 2hrs they sold the booked reservation slots to people who don't want to wait for long.Thus made money. The 3rd group didn't bother to use neither the 5$ nor the 2hrs....Instead they sold their 3min presentation time to a top company who was interested in recruiting Stanford graduates.... And made a whopping money of 650$. What do we learn from this???? If we concentrate wholly on the tactics only ( the 5$ here) we tend to get lost by concentrating only on it.....forgetting the strategy. ...

I say a little Prayer

 I say a little Prayer. Yesterday, I saw a Marathi Short Film. A couple both working in Corporate industry,staying in Pune. The man comes home all angry and frustrated. Things were not falling into place in the workforce for past few months.He was bewildered as he couldn't pinpoint a particular reason for the shortcomings.  His wife suggested a visit to the family deity.But as this film was made post Covid,the temple doors were still not open for devotees. Then, his mother suggested Astrology. A meeting with the Astrologer showed his stars weren't at the right place. Here the film comes to the main intention..... The Astrologer looks at the man.... " From your face,I can clearly make out that you have no faith in my Science. The poojas, Fasts,Rings,or some rituals if suggested by me ....you will not follow....and it's no point if your wife follows them on your behalf.But let me tell you...... If time is not going in your favor,these solutions I suggest are only Therape...

Unmindful Expenditures

 Unmindful Expenditures.  A well publicized Mega mart...... Out of curiosity, the FOMO forced me to visit this massive store in Bengaluru.  Attractive items at equally attractive prices. Before entering I had made a list to be purchased.I spent more than an hour or 2,admiring with awe....just like a curious kid in a Toy or Candy store...... Purchases done..... UPI payment over..... I came home with a very satisfied shopping delighted smile. I had shopped so many useless unwanted stuffs..... Completely forgetting to buy the essential items I had made a list of........ UPI,Credit Cards.....Digital payment..... Technology has made Expenditures so easy. Even my vegetables vendor on the roadside footpath now displays a QR code for payment....... Even if I forget my wallet,and am returning home after a casual evening stroll.....sighting fresh produce of Groundnuts placed in heapful......I could buy more than a kilo..... UPI makes such sudden whimsical Expenditures so so easy. A...

Most valuable asset

 Most Valuable asset..... A 10yr boy was brought into the Operation Theatre for Emmergency Appendicectomy. A very thin,nervous kid. He had a Heart defect at birth and had to undergo Surgery and prolonged hospital stay at a very young age. Usually, kids who have seen Hospital stay and Surgery before....that too prolonged are a bit difficult to handle as they are familiar with the drill and fear prolonged stay and suffering.  This kid entered cranky.But lot of cajoling and assurances made him quiet. After recovery from Anaesthesia post operative,inside the Operation Theatre the boy held both  his hands up together " Thank you,Doctor and Sister." It got every one in Operation Theatre emotional.  In the most vulnerable situation too....this small kid forgot his suffering......and thanked all who helped him. Values ...... The most valuable asset....... This small kid taught so many things that day. Values don't need age.....even a small just 10yrs,kid had humility to expr...
