About "EXCELLENCE" topic:

A man once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God. Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised, he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two statues of the same idol?" "No," said the sculptor without looking up, "We need   only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage." The gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage. "Where is the damage?" he asked. "There is a scratch on the nose of the idol." said the sculptor, still busy with his work.  "Where are you   going to install the idol?" The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar twenty feet high. "If the idol is that far, who is going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?" the gentleman asked.

The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said, "I will know it."


The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether someone else appreciates it or not.

"Excellence" is a drive from inside, not outside.

Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction.

Passion: Biggest Driver of Success - Without this you do not Achieve anything •You get ‘No-where’ without - Passion •So get JUICED UP to make you feel Inspired •A Man without passion is a fire without light •A person without passion has no more value than a candle without a flame or fire without light. By passion I mean zeal, enthusiasm, or fervour. It is the force that relentlessly drives one forward. Passion is a burning desire that creates commitment to a person, project, or life. A world without passion is a world without Mother Teresa, Mozart, or Michelangelo. Every great endeavour has been fuelled by passion. 2. Belief -- Birth of E...

An ancient Indian sage was teaching his disciples the art of archery. He put a wooden bird as the target and asked them to aim at the eye of the bird. The first disciple was asked to describe what he saw. He said, 'I see the trees, the branches, the leaves, the sky, the bird and its eye...' The sage asked this disciple to wait. Then he asked the second disciple the same question and he replied, 'I only see the eye of the bird.' The sage said, 'Very good, then shoot.' The arrow went straight and hit the eye of the bird.

My friend Rizwan Khan mailed me this interesting draft made by a Pakis journalist.   Written by a Pakistani journalist about India [MUST READ] Capital suggestion By Dr Farrukh Saleem 12/9/2007 Here's what is happening in India : The two Ambani brothers can buy 100 percent of every company listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) and would still be left with $30 billion to spare. The four richest Indians can buy up all goods and services produced over a year by 169 million Pakistanis and still be left with $60 billion to spare. The four richest Indians are now richer than the forty richest Chinese. In November, Bombay Stock Exchange's benchmark Sensex flirted with 20,000 points. As a conse...

Bravo, for the writer to have the courage to write the facts. Indian should also follow the great things from other countries like good work culture so that Indian public sectors can also compete with the companies of Ambani's and Azim Premji's.

Challenge of Excellence Once you have commitment to a team, the challenge of excellence is to become a leader. That can mean being the president of a Fortune 500 company, or it can mean being the best teacher you can be. It can mean being a better entrepreneur or a better parent. True leaders have knowledge of the power of procession, a sense that great changes come from many small things. They realize that everything they say and do has an enormous power to empower and embolden others. That happened in my life. When Mr.R was in high school, he had a speech teacher who asked him to stay after class one day. R wondered what he had done wrong. He said Mr R, “I think you have the makings of an...

Once there were two friends, one was a Gurmukh and the other a Manmukh. Their friendship was deep but Gurmukh believed in God while Manmukh did not. Gurmukh would wake up early in the morning, take a bath and recite the holy hymns while Manmukh would still be in bed sound asleep. Once they were going on a journey through he forest. As they were passing through the forest Manmukh found a bag of coal. He was very happy because he could sell it and make some money. As they further walked while talking about how lucky Manmukh was to find the bag of coal, Gurmukh screamed with pain. It appeared that a splinter went in Gurmukh’s leg. While Gurmukh was in pain, Manmukh started laughing. Gurmukh wa...
