Victory in SA
Well It is not a series win but a win nonetheless and it also got me out of the hiatus . This test win in SA has to be one of the memorable moments for Indian cricket . Sreesanth for me was a revelation and his fighting spirit is what differentiates him from the rest . The most memorable moment for me would be his dancing down the pitch after hitting Nel for a six. Nonehtheless there were two very important contibutions from Laxman and Ganguly both on a comeback.
Gandhigiri Works .Seriously?
Atleast it's back in fashion. Our father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi would be a very happy man today after all these tormenting years for his soul .His beliefs were forgotten and what remained was his picture. We got so used to seeing thm on walls , roads and currency that it was all but ignored and was taken for granted. We had forgotten what he really preached. What he preached was not only non violence . It was more than that. He preached unity. He knew that the country was soo divided that the only way forward was to first unite the country. In history you will find many instances where a violent struggle had been succesfull. Take the instance for American War of Independence against the British. But that can only happen when the whole country realizes a common enemy. I am not sure to what extent it helped us get independnce , but sure it united the people of this country.
We need more like him!
Story of Sarath Babu . It's an inspiring story of a IIM grad starting his own business , rejecting a lucrative job offer. The inspiration is simple . To give employment to people.
Made in Japan!
One of the best books I read in along time. Made in Japan is one of those books whick motivates you. Akio Morita was a revolutionary. He made SONY into what it is today. Being from a business background he had the abiltity to take risks and think big and innovatively. Walkman is just a case in point . He said that no amount of market research would have told them that Walkman would be successfull. He folllowed his intutions on these matters and luckily for SONY he was always right. Just go ahead and read this book. It's a wonderfull read. Made in Japan by Akio Morita
