This means that its not sufficient to do the righteous deed, but its also important to do it rightly and achieve the objective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He might be pushed hard , and might have the Motivation to do the DEED, but A True Hero will not just catch the bus and just do the deed right away. He will think the HOW part. When he figures out the HOW part, he will make sure He is CAPABLE to do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A True Hero will figure out the 3 below&lt;br /&gt;1. What&lt;br /&gt;2. How&lt;br /&gt;3. His Capability&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then , He will hit the Ground. He will hit the Ground with complete passion and energy to win.

One of the most significant aspects of human race.&lt;div&gt;Love is the strongest bond that attaches One Individual with another.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There are 2 types of Love.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;1. Blood Love &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. Water Love&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;With Blood Love, i mean loving someone who is your blood relative, like your Son, Daughter, Father, Mother, Brother, Grandparents etc. This is the most obvious LOVE, and no matter whether you like your blood relation, you tend to Love them. This love is usually unconditional , and very intense, especially between Mother &amp;amp; Child. Mother can do anything for her Child.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The 2nd Type of Love is Loving someone who is not your blood relative. This happens with Your Lover. It is equally intense as a mother child relation. Once a person truly falls in love, he feels the bliss of a lifetime. He enjoys each and every second spent with his lover and this makes his life complete. Very few people experience this feeling , and those who do experience, find this Life beautiful. On the flip side, since the feeling is so intense, one goes in complete trauma, if the 2 lovers are separated from each other due to any reason.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So, both the kind of Love carry intense bondage with them. However, the Water Love scores more than Blood love, since its not GIVEN. It is something that You CHOOSE or it happens AUTOMATICALLY, but it is selfless (if its really pure love), as compared to Blood Love.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1943654115320750684-5403029016918911271?l=perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/feeds/5403029016918911271/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1943654115320750684&amp;postID=5403029016918911271' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/5403029016918911271'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/5403029016918911271'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/2011/06/love.html' title='LOVE'/><author><name>kul</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14169668845568007265</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a1c4vAcZ5Cc/Te_L9peOVoI/AAAAAAAABMA/JtfXjTFCZFc/s220/Photo%2B34.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1943654115320750684.post-6565963103461574681</id><published>2011-05-28T23:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-29T00:47:52.240-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Strength Of Relationship</title><content type='html'>Man &amp;amp; Woman, Male &amp;amp; Female...are made for each other.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is such a beautiful arrangement &amp;amp; Truth of God / Universe, which makes lives of both sexes exciting, enriching, complete and gives meaning to their lives. Although there are various purposes which one can find in his / her life, one of the most beautiful purpose would be to Make the Life of Your Partner- A beautiful experience on this planet.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So what is it that can make the life of your partner a beautiful experience. Its indeed the unconditional love and care for your lover. The emotion that You can give away everything for being with your lover is the ultimate prize your partner seeks. Delight &amp;amp; Bliss in her life comes from your truthful devotion for the soul of your partner.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Relationship between 2 Souls can be as strong as Iron and can never be broken if the relationship stands on these 4 pillars.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;1. LIKE - If you love a person, but don't like his way of conduct, relationship will become weak. Also the Liking can be affected if your partner feels of you to be responsible for some loss he / she might have faced. So if this is the case, u need to clear the air and pull her back in the comfort zone by removing such blame out of her mind.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. LOVE- Even if you like a person, if you cannot love him, relationship won't last. LOVE is indeed the most important element of Relationship.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;3. TRUTH - To achieve your partner, You may end up Lying at various instances. Small lies dont affect relationship much , but if it is standing on some big Lie, or Some hidden aspects of one's Life, Relationship will have bitterness and will not last long. The 2 souls should be completely transparent with each other.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;4. TRUST - Even if You imagine that your partner has some other inclination, You are doubting him. And this brings the element of distrust &amp;amp; doubt, which will lead to bitterness and uncomfortable questioning between the 2 souls.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So, if there is Like, Love, Truth &amp;amp; Trust between 2 souls, the strength of such a relationship is unbreakable, and even if one of these elements goes missing, it will make Life uncomfortable and its better to break such a relationship and seek for a better partner, unless you think u can really Fix it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Any 1/4 is missing- v difficult, 2/4 are missing- Separate immediately, 3/4 Missing- Life is Hell- Move on, All 4 missing- You must be kidding me, if you still are in such a relationship !&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Blog is not about, what should not be, it is about "What Should Be". And therefore, do not take things for granted.  Have all the 4 elements of a strong relationship and live a Comfortable &amp;amp; Fulfilled life with Peace of Mind ! And then You can take Happiness for Granted !&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1943654115320750684-6565963103461574681?l=perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/feeds/6565963103461574681/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1943654115320750684&amp;postID=6565963103461574681' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/6565963103461574681'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/6565963103461574681'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/2011/05/strength-of-relationship.html' title='The Strength Of Relationship'/><author><name>kul</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14169668845568007265</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a1c4vAcZ5Cc/Te_L9peOVoI/AAAAAAAABMA/JtfXjTFCZFc/s220/Photo%2B34.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1943654115320750684.post-5999755930123712894</id><published>2011-05-23T13:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-23T13:23:18.434-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SHIDDAT...Dil Se</title><content type='html'>Here is a word that is fascinating &amp;amp; pushing me to my limits and asking me questions, that "How Much was put in by You?"

Why ignore the small things? Why not giving it a 100%?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sometimes it is not possible to give 100% to everything that we do; but what if 100% becomes our Lifestyle.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;How about giving 100% to everything we do.

Some people do find their goals. They are sometimes Long Term, or sometimes Short Term.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Once the Goal is established with justified righteousness and virtue, it has to be taken damn seriously. A timeline needs to SET, and one has to begin the COUNTDOWN for it. One may achieve Victory, but a struggling victory, which may look glamorous, will not be considered a Good Victory. A Good Victory is a Comfortable &amp;amp; Comprehensive Victory.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So Now the Goal is Set, and it has been decided that Victory needs to be comprehensive, here are the INGREDIENTS, which will make sure U win Comprehensively.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;1. COURAGE (Sahas) : Whatever the aim may be, No dream is too big! One must have the courage to aim high.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Courage comes from positive or negative reinforcers, but it is requirement no. 1. Without Courage, just forget it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. FOCUS ( Ekagrata ) : One must see the goal even in his subconscious mind. He should get engulfed with the thought so much so, that whatever distractions comes in his way, he should pluck them from beneath the Ground forever, and not let the focus go!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;3. The WAY (Marg) : Many people fight over the righteousness of the "WAY". Let them fight. Just find a WAY which is practical &amp;amp; result oriented. If your defined path will make sure you put the ball in the back of the net, then dont waste time in thinking about ethics &amp;amp; righteousness. Just Go!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;4. The TEAM (Sena) : Even is its a lonely battle, it would require a TEAM. Be a LEADER, coz its your Goal. And choose all kinds of players, just make sure they are trustworthy and will help you Win, not Loose. Its your Army and you are in a battle. If the roles are properly defined, You Must WIN.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;5. The CAPABILITY (Saamarthya) : Do not overestimate yourself. Check your Credentials again. Are they sufficient enough for you to Win. If its a do or die situation, HOLD on. Make yourself Capable for the War. Work towards increasing your Saamarthya. Once you and your team members have sufficient reason to trust your Saamarthya, then only You are READY.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;6.

I settled for a sleeper birth due to 'financial crisis' which has hit me too...And gosh, the sleeper is no more a sleeper in 'Awadh', its worse than general...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Let me start with the arrival. It was late by 40 mins. And came on platform no. 6 instead of 4, so the last minute 'Cooligiri' made me Coolie no. 1 with 2 heavy bags on my shoulder. Somehow we all reached the platform no.6, but there was no display of coach no. and when the train arrived , everyone just entered haphazardly to any coach they could get in. So, I had to settle for S-11 instead of S-6. Now u can imagine the scene that must have happened where everyone was finding their Coach inside the train. Moreover, our Lalu Ji has introduced a new birth on the RAC seats, which has increased the no. of seats. But implementation is so poor that the old no.'s &amp;amp; new no.'s are put over each other with no clue even to TT, which no. is right. And u must believe this , my seat was changed , by the sole discretion of TT. No Questions asked !&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After the 'allotment' , I found a gay uncle who made me feel so uncomfortable that I had to literally disclose my unpleasant condition to the TT, who affirmed me that the 'Gay Uncle' will leave in 1hr on the next station.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Once he got out, i thought to relax, but in came the 'Gaanv Walas" and in big no.'s. TT was approached for the mishap, but well TT is God, and God is always right. So he said they will not disturb you and went away. And then at 12 midnight, they started their radios, which had all 'B' grade movies songs, ringing right in my head till 3 a.m.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And one phenomena which surprises me even as i am writing this, was why 'CHAAY' walas were there till 3 a.m. Somehow with all kinds of war of words, peace creeped in at 3, and a unanimous stand was taken to "SLEEP"...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was 5.25 A.M. ..train reached some station &amp;amp; bang they came....." CHAAY CHAAY ".....&amp;amp; they never stopeed after that till 2.40 P.M when i reached Kota...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So the sleep was gone...and no way u can sleep after 6 am in a awadh, mind u! So here comes the most interesting part...The Mela....What was not available in Awadh...Let me jot down the food items...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;1. Anda Biryani&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. Veg Biryani&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;3. Aloo Wada&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;4. Samosa&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;5. Kachori&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;6. Bread Cutlet&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;7. Bread Omlette&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;8. Dhokla&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;9. Chana Salad&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;10. Chana Jor Garam&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;11.

I believe that's not what a blog should intend to do..&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;So i choose a topic which i believe has a wider or macro range, and which has the power to impact &amp;amp; challenge the ground we stand on...So i write things which challenge the existing systems and how they should be if we all start thinking rationally.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;&lt;b&gt;There is Enough out There&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;I was watching this documentary "Secret" and was stunned by it for some time. The documentary suggests that one should always think positively and ask /dream about his desires to the "Universe" which for some people is "God". The Universe will respond &amp;amp; ur dream will be fulfilled, if u act upon the 'chances' and grab opportunities. In other words, u must grab opportunity coz the "HOW" will be determined by the Universe, however you must act on the 'How'...So here are the steps&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;1. Ask &amp;amp; be positive &amp;amp; determined&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;2. Act  ( when u see the opportunity ) The opportunity will define the "How"&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;Now so far the documentary was sounding 'ok' to me, but i thought they will not consider the angle of " if everybody does that "...But they did cover it also..&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;So what does that mean? If everybody starts asking in the 'secret' way , will everybody get the opportunity to be successful? And the answer is a big "YES".&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;Yes, There is enough out there. Lets talk about money? Is it enough out there for everyone to be rich? Well to your surprise, "YES". Lets see a simple example. if there are 100 people in an economy, how all 100 can be rich.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;Lets start with an assumption that 40 people are rich while 60 of them poor. These 40 people are rich coz all of them have 40 shops; 1 shop each which caters a product to 99 people. These poor 60 people are poor coz they also consume the 40 products, and they have lesser incomes coz they are working under these 40 rich people. Now if all poor people reduce their consumption of 40 products to say 20 products, they start saving. Also, they must innovate and bring new products to the market, and have a shop of their own. In case some of the 100 people must continue to do jobs and not have their businesses, they must negotiate a higher salary.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;Although its a complicated economic system in reality, the idea is that everybody can be rich, if he desires to be one. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;I will end up with this .....as Shahrukh says....Thoda Aur Wish Karo...&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia"&gt;There is enough out there for everyone...&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Just Grab It! &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Georgia; min-height: 19.0px"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1943654115320750684-4604304325207993312?l=perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/feeds/4604304325207993312/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1943654115320750684&amp;postID=4604304325207993312' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/4604304325207993312'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/4604304325207993312'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/2009/05/there-is-enough-out-there.html' title='There Is Enough Out There'/><author><name>kul</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14169668845568007265</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a1c4vAcZ5Cc/Te_L9peOVoI/AAAAAAAABMA/JtfXjTFCZFc/s220/Photo%2B34.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1943654115320750684.post-1868183624384839200</id><published>2009-01-11T01:40:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-11T01:46:32.705-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The New Economic System</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: -webkit-monospace; font-size: 12px; line-height: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap; "&gt;  Taxation is a flaw in an economic system, that can be rooted out permanently in a phased manner. Adam Smith &amp;amp; David Smith would agree, that Capitalism is the best way, an economy should be run.  The GOI should stop taking tax...Hmm...how will they run their operations then? what are their operations anyways? Some grants, running PSU's, Infrastructure expenses, Subsidies, etc...Well here is Kaku's suggfestions....Disinvest all PSU's, stop subsidies, create database of "COI" circle of interdependence and Jobs..Make more &amp;amp; more entrepreneurs..Stop Grants, make more &amp;amp; more NGO's...and if u feel there are some businesses like railways, which cannot be given in private hands...then retain them with you....but Run the Govt as a COMPANY, to be traded in Stock market, whcih keeps a close watch on the performance of the company...  Now, since i allow you to retain some activities, how do u do them, without taking tax....Since your revenues are lesser than expenses, in running, say railways (just an example), make it innovative &amp;amp; make profits out of it...This can be done, as shown under lalu yadav...if not possible, the RBI can lend you some money, which will be a deficit that you face. When RBI gives u some money, the same amount has to be reduced by RBI in its Money supply target...  Although many structural changes will be required, here is the biggest of them all....DISSOLVE the government, &amp;amp; stop DEMOCRACY.......The way in which IIM's IIT's IAS examination are conducted, the Goverment should be run by people who go through a exam of such kind, followed by training of the candidates in Political Science, Sociology &amp;amp; Economics for at least 5 years, and should undergo practical training for 3 yeras, before they can assume office.........Such refined talent, ruling the country will be far better than these elected morons!!!         &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1943654115320750684-1868183624384839200?l=perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/feeds/1868183624384839200/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1943654115320750684&amp;postID=1868183624384839200' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/1868183624384839200'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/1868183624384839200'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/2009/01/new-economic-system.html' title='The New Economic System'/><author><name>kul</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14169668845568007265</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a1c4vAcZ5Cc/Te_L9peOVoI/AAAAAAAABMA/JtfXjTFCZFc/s220/Photo%2B34.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1943654115320750684.post-7446199017259090477</id><published>2008-07-31T08:31:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-04T12:52:10.923-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Degrees Of Exploration</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Degrees Of Exploration - Till Evolution?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We ask questions in our day to day lives, millions of them...We get answers to many of them. Thanks to Google these days, we get more answers, answers to questions which we cannot even dare to ask anyone!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So let us take an example-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Father &amp;amp; Son are going for a walk. The boy asks father-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is this building pops?&lt;br /&gt;Ans. It’s a bank, son&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whats a Bank?&lt;br /&gt;Ans. A bank is a place where ppl put their savings and withdraw when they need them&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whats saving?&lt;br /&gt;Ans. Savings is the money left after making expenses out of your income?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whats income?&lt;br /&gt;Ans. Income is the money earned after doing a job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So ppl do job to earn money and then they spend and save…They must make sure that their income is more than expenses…So that they have enough savings for their retirement…But dad, where does bank get its money from?&lt;br /&gt;Ans. The Bank makes money according to the requirement of money in the economy…..It cannot make more than permitted..otherwise it will cause the prices to rise, since more money will chase fewer items….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got that Dad..But how does the govt decide on the amount of money in the economy?&lt;br /&gt;Ans. Oh God! U ask so many ques…Go to your Uncle..He has done PG in Economics…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Boy goes to uncle and asks about the money supply in the economy….&lt;br /&gt;Ans. Uncle says that the supply of money should actually depend upon the production of goods &amp;amp; services in the economy, but since no Government in the world can actually evaluate the total production, it ends up churning out more or less than required.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So Uncle Bob, do u mean to say that its because of this mismanagement of money supply, we see an increase or decrease in prices…I mean Inflation.&lt;br /&gt;Ans. Oh Yes, my child, its because of this mismanagement, if people have more money, and production is less, the prices will go higher, coz the seller will give the goods to sone from whom he can fetch more.. But dear child, its not only demand &amp;amp; supply of goods &amp;amp; services that define money supply in trhe economy, there are other minor factors also….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What are they?&lt;br /&gt;Ans. Hmmm…..they are there, but for u to understand them, u need to grow a little more..I will surely explain u those factors, after 5 years…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s not fair Uncle!....Ok tell me how these shirts are made….&lt;br /&gt;Ans. See, there u are, I will explain u a few things about it, but u will take me to the evolution point…Since I am an economist, I wont be able to tell u the chemistry behind the production of clothes…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do u mean? I want to understand everything in this world..&lt;br /&gt;Ans. &lt;em&gt;Wait a minute child…This world is huge!!…Its enormous….Right from atom to the universe, this world has seen crore years of history, having billions of stories, and billions of “starts and ends”…..The world u see today, itself has, crores of phenomenon lying, some explored, others unexplored….You have a limited no. of years, you will not be able to solve these mysteries…plz dnt try to…Choose your field, the dimension of life you like and enjoy the limited years you have…Don’t ever tell me this “larger than life” stuff…Be the best in the field you choose…Coz that is the way this life is..It doesn’t allow you to do everything, it should not…It makes you a part in its game plan, and allows you to chose the arena…sometimes restricts you to a few choices…But at the end, you must understand the big picture, and be the best in the life you choose….. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The point is, don’t try to explore each and everything to the last details…Explore everything to certain level, leave the rest to the world. The world might have explored the stuff, and if not, it will….&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Exploration to Evolution should be done only of a select few themes of the dimension you chose! For other phenomenon, You should limit your Degrees Of Exploration&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Boy listened to Uncle carefully and after a while asked, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;How do I chose?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And the answer of Uncle was silent, composed and firm,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wait!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wait till you think, I have CHOSEN !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1943654115320750684-7446199017259090477?l=perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/feeds/7446199017259090477/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1943654115320750684&amp;postID=7446199017259090477' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/7446199017259090477'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/7446199017259090477'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/2008/07/degrees-of-exploration.html' title='Degrees Of Exploration'/><author><name>kul</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14169668845568007265</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a1c4vAcZ5Cc/Te_L9peOVoI/AAAAAAAABMA/JtfXjTFCZFc/s220/Photo%2B34.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1943654115320750684.post-3026301727491561472</id><published>2008-07-31T08:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-31T09:22:11.187-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The World is Strong to Weak &amp; Vice Versa</title><content type='html'>I was previlegged to study in SP jain institute, where i completed my SYB course last year in Feb...One of our faculties, Mr. Parimal Merchant who took our finance sessions, gave us a golden mantra of life..."The World is Strong to Weak AND Weak to Strong"....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It toook me sometime to understand what he meant with this quote..He gave an example..."when a dog barks at you, and you fear the dog, and run , he becomes stronger and you- Weaker!....Lesson- when you showed weakness, he became strong....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the other hand, if you would have chosen to "not fear" rather react in an attacking manner, and showed him a stone, it would have turned the tables...The dog would have not even barked, and would have taken a U turn!....Lesson- when you showed strength, the dog became weak...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the first case, "The world was strong to weak" and in the second "The world was weak to strong"....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This golden phrase has turned my thinking forever...I have found its applicability in every walk of life...Its everywhere!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its an important phenomena of life!

I don’t know what people expect of me, but the unexpected is always expected when I do things in my “normal” course of doing things. Let me start with my profile. I am a businessman, and we provide accommodation to professionals working in Mumbai.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This blog is about the biggest lesson I have learned in a short span of time as an entrepreneur and in a nutshell I can say, you need ‘Licenses to Grow”. “License to kill” signifies here the act of doing your things at your free will and believing anything is possible. Plz remember, throughout this blog, I need not reiterate that when I say, license to do anything, do not take into consideration the BAD things, its all about GOOD things. And I suppose with this mantra of “Believing Nothing is impossible, &amp;amp; yes I have the License to do anything”, one can start his dream project straightaway. One must not restrict himself in a nest, he should believe he can do anything, For eg; if I believe I am a good enough actor, I should start writing the script for my movie straightaway. One needs to believe, he has the license to do anything he wants to, and with that in mind, he can achieve his goals with a positive frame of mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But hey! Wait here, If you want the Inner Self Licence to do anything you wish, You must have the licenses from the “Outer World” too!  The Outer World is very cunning. No Mr. Paulo Coelho, I suppose u r 100% wrong when you say, the whole world &amp;amp; his brother tries to help you to achieve your goal, when you want to achieve it. The World out there is always looking to pull you down, unless they have any mutual benefit. License from the outer world does not come without COST. You need to PAY to win. You need to keep everyone happy, if you want to win. You need to entertain everybody who comes in the way up the ladder. You have to pay to Police, Local Netaji and his Gundas, the dalals, the Tax walas, and all the Government officials (BABUS) who fall in your business category, becoz if you don’t, you will be stamped “Illegal”. So always add up these costs in your calculations, before taking up entrepreneurship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because this is an interdependent world, and you want to take the maximum, You will need to keep everyone happy, if you want the “License to KILL “. Don’t try to eat the whole pizza, share it with all the Babus, and you will get the biggest pie at the end of the day! Of course, you don’t need to share the actual size of the pizza with anyone, except your Tax Planner!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next Blog- The World is Strong to Weak &amp;amp; Vice Versa&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kulpreet&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1943654115320750684-3613372750131240600?l=perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/feeds/3613372750131240600/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1943654115320750684&amp;postID=3613372750131240600' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/3613372750131240600'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1943654115320750684/posts/default/3613372750131240600'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://perceptionspersonified.blogspot.com/2007/10/license-to-kill.html' title='License To Kill'/><author><name>kul</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14169668845568007265</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a1c4vAcZ5Cc/Te_L9peOVoI/AAAAAAAABMA/JtfXjTFCZFc/s220/Photo%2B34.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
