	I tried very hard, to search for reasons to vote for Rahul Gandhi. But I failed. At the age of 41, he is like a blank slate. On the important issues, during crisis time (e.g. Anna Hazare's agitation), he keeps his mouth shut. Whenever he opens his...

How to impress people with ur skills in sales Sometimes sales professionals feel insecure about presenting various products or services that they represent. To overcome the discomfort that naturally occurs when you feel unsure about certain features or benefits, often you will instinctively upgrade your language, believing that doing so will help you sound more professional and more knowledgeable. Actually, however, this practice can hurt you rather than help you in the sales communication proc

A boat docked in a tiny Goan village. A tourist from Mumbai complimented the Goan fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them. "Not very long," answered the fisherman. "But then, why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the Mumbaite. The Goan fisherman explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.. The Mumbaite asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"

Fundas tell only half the story

LOSSES in portfolio value in recent years are testimony to the fact that, even at the best of times, predicting stock price behaviour is not easy. And these are anything but the best of times. The global outlook post-September 11 and local uncertainties in the South Asian region have combined to make this so. Even in ordinary times, investor-expectations play a strong role in price formation. As expectations do not always spring from robust past performance, enterprise fundamentals have only a

I will never forget what my old headmaster told taught me. Normally when you are only 15 years of age you do not remember most of the things that are preached by your teachers. But, this particular story is one such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I get reminded of this story. It was a normal Monday morning at an assembly, and he was addressing the students on important things in life and about committing ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the stor

The Fault Line in our Constitution

British ruled us for years with one policy dividing all of us. Freedom struggle was carried on to free India. In my opinion the National Congress then never fought for a really free democratic India. They actually fought to rule India in British style people of India supported them as all of they thought that freedom only can be achieved by the Congress. Even partition took place only due to a fight for ruling between Congress Jinnah. However Pakistan created then dictators ruled that country.
