Horizons

"Change is calling where are you", this is the quote of the time for me. After spending one and half year in Chicago (Central America) and closely one and half year in Hartford (East Coast), now its time to visit Phoenix (West Coast).

So the change is asking me to go to west coast of America from first week of Nov. Actually i completed visiting almost all the places in East and Central part of America. I never got a chance to visit the west coast. So lets see whats in store there.

In my 25 years stay in India, I went out of state only twice. I haven't travelled more than 500 KM's any time. Now each year I am moving by at least 1500 KM's. Now the distance between the current place and new place is nearly 4000 KM's.

Two things I learned in US are travelling and investing time in myself. Lets give a look at the places I visited so far in US

1. New york, New Jersey - two times
2. Niagara
3. St.Louis
4. Chicago - stayed here for one and half year
5. Washington DC - two times
6. Virginia
7. Smoky Mountains
8. Upstate New york, lake George, lake placid, Adirondack state forest.
9. Boston & Road Island - Two times
10. Minneapolis - Two times
11. Number of local places near Chicago and Connecticut.

Really, I never know I like travelling :-)

Dhirubhai Notorious or Famous???????

This article is about a legend called Dhirubhai. Ambani The collected information about Reliance founder Dhirubhai from book Polyster Prince (which is banned in INDIA) and from internet. These facts are eye openers for rotten politics or eye brow raisers for public or shot in the arm for Indian system or brain teasers for Tax / Finance authorities....... Whatever it is, a man dreamed for something achieved it, the path he chosen might be controversial but not the hard work he put for it, neither his capabilities nor his thoughts..... One thing for sure 2 generations before me they dont know about this guy , might be no body discusses about him after 2 generations, i am proud to be from the same historic period as he is..... His famous quotes: Think big, think fast, think ahead. Ideas are no one's monopoly "We cannot change our Rulers, but we can change the way they Rule Us. "Changing orbits is the key to our progress" Some Unofficial statements made by him : I dont

Excerpt from the book "Made to Stick"

Image
This is one of my favorite books this year. The authors in this book talk about 6 principles to make messaging stick.  S:  Simple: Find the core and share the core U: Unexpected: Get attention(Surprise), Hold Attention (Interest). C:  Concrete: Help people understand, remember and coordinate. C:  Credible: Help people Believe. External and internal credibility. E:  Emotional: Make people care through the power of association, self-interest, and appeal to Identity. S:  Stories: Get people to Act through simulation and inspiration. Golden Rule of Simplicity: A one-sentence statement so profound that an individual could spend a lifetime learning to follow it. People can be driven to irrational decisions by too much complexity and uncertainty. Simple messages are core and compact. We need to shift our thinking from "What information do I need to convey? to "What questions do I want my audience to ask ?" Curiosity comes from gaps in our knowledge. Statistics will, and should,
