The Art of Giving

Its human to take from others, It take a little extra human effort to give to others.

It always better to give people what they want as they relish it, rather than giving what you can.

The only golden rule that i've learnt is "Ensure that the taker is worthy of the giving"

Giving = Taking

Re-Birth of the Icon : Chetak the Indian war horse

This is opposite to what I usually blog here. Since this too was a passing thought, thought it right to blog it.

Chetak : Who does not know about this Melody of the yesteryear's. Its was the style statement in its hay days which went on to become a Must have two wheeler a few years later.

Off late I've been attending far too many Social gatherings. In these gatherings, I do meet up with very many old time customers who still go GAGA with their Chetak & Chetak days.

Most of them have given up driving the chetak around for the Convenience of Automatic scooters.

In this Era of remakes & remixes , which have turned out to be great success, I now feel that it would happen to the Chetak too. I strongly feel that Chetak needs to have a rebirth, OFC in a new Avtar.
In its new Avtar, this new scooter should appeal to the Chetak Generation whilst keeping an eye on the wants of the "Today Generation".

All it takes is a 125 CC 4- Stroke , well styled, simple to use , Automatic scooter. The Styling according to me must be derived from the older Chetak with a few features added ala the old Marquee.

It should derive some small external styling leads/ inputs from the Yesteryear's Chetak in a few areas, which Reminds us about the Great Marquee Calling itself the "Chetak Automatic".

In short it should be a reminder of the old Glory days of the Chetak set in the modern era.

The Name Chetak, I am sure it would rekindle many memories & bring back the glory of the yesteryears.

Experience : a Finer Derivative

Expereience:

Having seen a few application which come in with a column quoting the experience in the number of years at doing some thing, thought of the same today in the morning.

Experience according to me is all about the learning one derives from every day endevors & trying to do the same quickly under similar circumstances & not repeat the same mistakes that were commited in the earlier instance.

Destiny : Who Controls it?

Well people resort to saying in depression that "Its my Bad luck or Destiny".

The question is who Determines one Destiny ?

It is said that the "Only person incharge of destiny is the Person himself".

All other who say are incharge of the persons Destiny are only acting upon the behest of this person & not the people who control it.

It is in the current Indian scenario it also is a right to copy.

The reasult of a sucessful model is known when we see people replicating what ever we do in what ever modified form.

Knowledge or Experience

After my presentation on Training a Co-Trainee asked me a dicey question. He asked me

" Weather Experience is better than knowledge or the other way round?"

I also encountered a similar Question yesterday at an Automotive Contest (Where I along with my father Were invited to be a judge) & the Anchor of the Show said " They say Experience is the mother of knowledge, can you see this clearly here? "

My answer were the same in both the circumstances.

"There is no Experience with out Knowledge & No knowledge with out Experience."

They always go hand in hand.

In fact an elevated soul would realise the fact " Knowledge gives Experience & Experience gives Knowledge" They are always in Tandem & can't live with our each other.

Training : Driver to Our Destiny

Training:

A few years ago while under going a Development Program at a Corporate co, I was asked to make an impromptu Presentation on Training. The challenge posed were

1. the Preparation would be not more than 5 mins

2. The Presentation not to exceed 2 mins.

Though the ask was tough, I accepted & moved on it.

The Presentation consisted of only one slide & one word

TRAIN - ING

I presented it as below

" We take train to move to various destinations for very many reasons"
"Similarly we need to Train our Selves to move from one place to another"

So Training is an Essential tool to drive us to various levels.

This very much defines the Alttitude of both our Professional Career as well as Personal Life.
