Time and time again

Biggest lesson from the past, is there is no lesson. There are only learnings to be imbibed on 'where is' and 'as it is' basis. I have read stories and heard accounts of many great men from the past and present. None as fascinating as of a gentleman called Bill Gates.

Look at the guy even now, he is still disheveled and weary as he was before his rise to fame. Now if you give up a coveted admission in Harvard, most people would call you crazy. Dude you ought to be really silly and stupid! But then when did he believed in convention. Now look at his foresight. He was one for technology, a computer on every desk-home and office. Most of us would have shrugged at this suggestion. Especially at a time, when a computer was looked upon as an upwardly sophisticated device needed for scientific purposes. Something you would hardly imagine on working, let alone owning.

He believed in his dream, worked relentlessly by combing synergies with fellow mates Paul Allen and Steve Ballmer to create the biggest software company the world would ever witness to. Rest as they is history. That I would say is his story, and we all can draw inspiration from it. What I want is to create my own!!

My endeavor has been to make a name for myself. Being recognized as an expert and specialist is an achievement to be proud of. My intuition suggests me to break free of the bonds of conventional wisdom and explore the world at large. There are plenty of business opportunities waiting to be explored. All we need to follow them with passion. Par sabse pehle we need to identify them. We have tried to make a modest beginning, dekho kaha pahuch jatey hai.

I am tired, real tired but will still continue to drag on. All without a reason.
