OUT OF REACH


The saga of the umteempth puzzle unfolds itself,
A question flickers through the mind,
Will the sun ever meet the moon?
Or  will it fade away into the gloomy night.
Without meeting that little star of his!
 
Not a day was spent without him,
Playing in those arms of his throughout the day,
Gradually learning to walk that extra mile with him.
 
Tresspassing those inumerous thorns,
Every passing week was a blessing.
 
Till Those tides hit those massive rocks
Felt like the bird had lost its wings,
The smooth flow again getting disturbed
Waves which were so beautiful to watch
Never were the same again.
 
Few footsteps taken down the wrong lane,
The Quiet distancing between the sun and the moon.
Those hands which showed the ranger his way
Suddenly disappeared into the eery night.
 
Years have gone by as the road is nearby,
At times, it looks foggy,
And at times it seems Out Of Reach
Yet that Sun is waiting for that sweet hug,
From his little star who is grown up now.
 
Attempts to Find the One were Futile 
But there lies that hope at the end of the tunnel
Maybe Someday the Sun’s rays will brighten up
To march ahead of the Star and the Moon.
 
And To end the Puzzle of the unknown dilemma,
Which at a point was “Out Of Reach”.

THE LESS OBVIOUS RULES OF SUCCESS

A simple arithmetic question for you: ‘A bat and ball cost a dollar and ten cents. The bat costs a dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?’ If you answered ‘10 cents’ you also probably are not aware of the ‘less obvious rules of success’. I will try to discuss a few here – the most obvious ones at least. Just as the obvious answer that 90% of the readers gave was actually the wrong answer ( the right answer is 5 cents for the ball and a dollar and five cents for the bat ), similarly the rules of success are the ones we most often tend to overlook. Success comes from strange quarters and with strange reasons too. Decades ago, an interesting book “ What they don’t teach you at Harvard Business School ” became a best seller. The author had then tried to show how the most obvious things are not being taught, the things that actually impact our careers. Even today, most people are not aware of many similar things. IT’S NOT WHAT YOU SPEAK, RATHER WHAT YOU DON’T WHI...

A BRANDING LESSON: TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE FOCUS ON ONE THING

The world is moving at a very fast pace and everybody is working hard to get ahead in as short a time as possible. As a result, people are cramming up their calendars with more and more. Their ‘to-do’ list just never seems to end. The ability to multitask seems to be the most essential requirement in the work environment. However, the fact is that no one has ever been able to achieve much this way. To be successful in life – Focus on one thing! Research has shown time and again that the human mind is not meant to multitask. Not just that, research now even proves how long-term multitasking is actually harmful for the brain. A study done in 2009 by Stanford proved that frequent multitaskers were not able to use their brain as efficiently as non-multitaskers. The scary part is that frequent multitaskers were less effective even when asked to focus on one activity. Trying to get too much done in one go is not a good idea. It will not get you quick success; rather, focusing on one thin...

SIMPLE SECRET TO SUCCESS

Amazon is today the one of the largest retailers of the world. Most of us have bought or at least browsed through the zillion things the site sells. Most of us have also patiently read the numerous customer reviews before proceeding to check out and finally buying the stuff. Now, here is an interesting fact. Most of the reviews are written by people whose job is to review products sent to them by Amazon. So they are not normal customers like you and me for they did not pay for the stuff they are reviewing. The important thing to note here is the fact that ‘customer review’ is an important factor today in building market share. It’s proved that products which get a feedback, that is are reviewed, are sold more than products which get no reviews. So Amazon has developed a program called ‘Vine’ where some trusted reviewers are invited to be a part of it. Through these reviewers, it populates its site with reviews which can help customers. In the virtual world, to be successful, you ne...
