Have you ever had an idea that you thought would make you rich?

It is a story of Monty Roberts. When he was a kid, his father as a horse trainer was moving

from stable to stable, from ranch to ranch, training horses. Thus, the boy’s school career was constantly interrupted. One day, when he was a senior, teacher asked him to write about what he wanted to be when he grew up. He did not hesitate a minute and wrote seven-page paper about his aim to be an owner of a horse ranch, he wrote many details and drew a location of buildings and stables and even a detailed house plan.

Two days later he received his paper back with letter “F” on the front page.

After class he came to teacher and asked: “Why did I receive an

F?” The teacher responded: “This dream is so unrealistic for a boy like you, who has no money, no resources and who comes from itinerant family. There is no possibility that you will reach your great goals one day. Then the teacher offered to rewrite the paper with more realistic attitude.

The boy went home and asked his father, how he should act. The father

answered: “This decision is very important for you. So you have to make your own mind on this.”

After several days the boy brought the same paper to his teacher. No changes

were made. He said: “Keep the F and I will keep my dream.”

Now, Monty Roberts owns 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of 200-

acre horse ranch and he still has that school paper, which now is framed over the fireplace. Remember, you have to follow your heart and never let anyone to steal your dreams.

I Can & I Will

A recent research opens our eyes with the fact that in the US 69 per cent

parents believe that their busy, stressful lives have no impact on their children; yet 91 per cent of those children disagree; because they experience the consequences at home. They have to face the yelling, irritated mood, absence and distraction.

A recent study in India reveals that fathers spend an average of only seven

minutes a day talking to their children whereas mothers only 11 minutes. In India we all know that now parents are super busy. They

struggle to find time with their children with undivided attention.

What to do now? First: increase the amount of time you talk to

your children. We can do so even when are not physically available. Parents who regularly have meaningful conversation with their children over phone report to have a visible positive change in their relationship.

Second: hug your nearest and dearest ones; who deserve quality time and

attention from you. A hug soothes

relationship; it is therapeutic. Don’t just spend time; talk to them and talk often.

Do you just spend time together or talk? — Tapas Dasmohapatra


“Yesterday ended last night. Today is a brand new day and it’s yours.”

Lesson by Mac Anderson - In 1982, Jan Carlson had just been named the

CEO of Scandinavian Airlines. His company was in trouble. They had just been ranked by a consumer poll as the worst airline in the world. Yet one year later, in the same poll, they were ranked number one in all three categories. What happened? He had decided to focus on what he thought was the most critical issue in serving the customer. He wanted to keep it simple:

Identify every contact between customer and employee, and treat that contact as “a moment

of truth.” He set out to let his people know the importance of that moment be it the captain, the ticket agent, the baggage handler, the flight attendant. “Every moment, every contact,” he said, “must be as pleasant, and as memorable as possible.”

He figured that he had approximately ten million customers each year, and on average each customer made contact with five of his people for approximately 15 seconds at a time, would determine the fate of his company.He set out to share his vision with his twenty thousand employees.

He knew the key was to empower the front line. Let them make the decision and take action, because they were Scandinavian Airlines during those 15 seconds. He now had 20,000 people who were focused on one very important thing, and that was making every moment count.

We all want to control, especially our lives because we think we are the owner of it, the sole pro-prietor, but when things become out of our control, we start feeling helpless or powerless and start thinking about all the negative things that could happen. We start chasing or dwelling on what is out of our control which not only prevent us from experiencing the beauty of the moment but also having a peaceful mind. We even try to do all the possible things to make that happen the way we want it, no matter how bad the re-percussion will be.

To let go of emotional burden, we need to ask ourselves wheth-er in that particular situation I can’t change or I won’t change.

Because there are certain things which are not in our control, as we don’t know what will hap-pen in the next minute. However, our benefit lies in the acceptance of reality and let things go which are not in our control and focus more on the things which we can do or on which we have a control i.e. our attitude towards our life. A positive and focused approach towards life, helps us to come out of our victim mentality and gives strength to move forward for the betterment in life. We need to learn how to compile and select our thoughts just the same way as we select our clothes every day. This is a power we can cultivate. And, if you really want to work on something in your life then work on your mind. That’s the

only thing you should be trying to control and that’s the only thing which we can control.

At last as I can say, real healing is in the learning how to give value every experience of life and ac-cepting the fact that the things that come; comes with reason and the things that go; goes with reasons.

The Quicker You Let Go Of Old Cheese, the Sooner You Find New Cheese – Keep Cheesing

Excerpts from Suresh Semwal’s Book - ‘Selling Simplified’

Learn to LET GO - Alisha Jain


“Go as far as you can see. When you get there, you’ll be able to see farther.”

Realty SalesmanYou Decide !!A new vacuum salesman knocked at the door – A lady opened it. Be-fore she could speak… The sales-man rushed into the living room and emptied a bag of cow dung on the carpet.Salesman: Madam, if I couldn’t clean this up in the next 3 mins with my new powerful vacuum cleaner, I will EAT all this!!Lady: Do you need Chili Sauce with that?Salesman: Why Madam?Lady: Because there’s no electric-ity in the house?Moral: “Gather all resources be-

fore working on any project and committing to the client & over smartness can be deadly.”

Saying ‘NO’ is better than ‘No Response’ — Mahak Vaish

O crap! It’s been long I am ap-proaching him/her, but getting no answer!I tried to call him many a times but he/she is not answering the call!I asked him many a times but he/she is not replying!

Aren’t the above men-tioned are our daily hap-penings which trigger

us? Each one of us is either wait-ing for an answer by someone or someone is waiting for our answer. It happens both at pro-fessional and personal front. Ac-cording to me, world is composed of two kind of people- first, “who have something to say and can’t” and secondly those “who have something to say but don’t”. We feel so irritated and wonder that what is taking a lot of time for the person to answer or what is tak-

ing a person to opt for no reply at all. For people who ‘can’t say’ they need to learn the art of how to say and for those who ‘don’t say’ at all needs to be responsive in nature. The reason why people resist saying ‘no’ is that they have little fear of how the other person will feel like. Will he/ she be hurt, feel bad about it? On the contrary, just think that how would he/she will feel when you will give ‘no response’ at all; perhaps that lat-ter is more powerful to give stress to someone because a person is carrying a baggage of expecta-tions and answers? In this you can help him or her by respond-ing at least, doesn’t matter the an-swer is ‘no’ because your simple ‘no’ can put a full stop on his/her thinking and expectations and yes you can give some a sigh of relief. Saying ‘No’ is always better than ‘no response’ because it somehow

saves time, creates a good image and hence can set someone free to move ahead. It’s simple as that – A dim beam of light is always bet-ter than complete darkness i.e. a little response of no is always bet-ter than keeping a person on hold and darkness, whereas you can let them go as well.
