Advertising..finding the new ways..

Today when I went to Prasadz for watching the pleasant visual treat..Alice in wonderland(3D)..two things pulled my attention...one is a huge vinyl poster of a ad about a car ...of course it is lil old but by seeing it I felt that nothing is ineligible for ad ..but the real interesting one is about a hospital..they put a old damaged car ( probably it might have met with an accident)..on the way out and sealed the area as if a real accident happened there..most of us would feel that some accident happened and the car is kept there..then if we observe cleary..there is a hording hanging to the wall with a hospital name asking to call them in case of such instances..:-)

It's a new and innovative way of publicising..what say,folks? :-)

Thanks

Deewali a gratifyng festival..

 Deewali a gratifying festival..reminds me of my childhood where we used to wait for deewali by counting days almost for a month, used to buy toy guns and play a lot with them..buy crackers and store them with utter most care :-)..used to make them dry..used to curse rain or clouds if they arrive..

All those days are gone now...This time I enjoyed the happiness in the eyes of lil dears by helping them when they were delighted lighting rockets and bursting crackers.. :-)

As this pleasurable festival is a symbol of  end of darkness and start of brightness..May this brings brightness in our lives as well..

Hope you all had a great deewali..

Thanks.

Yetra naryasthu poojyante...

Apart from classic examples of our epics of Ramayana and Mahabharatha...we have lot of examples in our present-day world also to tell us how worse will be the world if women is not respected properly..

• In Srilanka most of teenagers said that they have become part of LTTE because of atrocities against few or all of women in their families.
• Hitler became such a violent person because of some incidents  happened to his mother in his child hood.
• Sivaji got support and revolted because of atrocities of the then rulers against women of other religion
• Satwanth singh promised in  golden temple to kill Indira Gandhi only after he believed that army sent by Indira gandhi did some great insults their women( though I have great respect for Indian army, I am putting here what he and most of the media believed to happened..)..

These can go to millions if I keep on going giving examples..

But a million dollar question is how we are bringing up our children or siblings or cousins?...whether we are imparting in them utmost respect for women which she deserves?

The four words...

Read some where in internet...just sharing good and really striking one...I hope u all will like it..

An eight-year-old boy approached an old man in front of a wishing well, looked up into his eyes, and said: "I understand you're a very wise man. I'd like to know the secret of life."

The old man looked down at the youngster and replied: "I've thought a lot in my lifetime, and the secret can be summed up in four words.

"The first is THINK. Think about the values you wish to live your life by.

"The second is BELIEVE. Believe in yourself based on the thinking you've done about the values you're going to live your life by.

"The third is DREAM. Dream about the things that can be, based on your belief in yourself and the values you're going to live by.

"The last is DARE. Dare to make your dreams become reality, based on your belief in yourself and your values."

And with that, Walter E. Disney said to the little boy,

"THINK, BELIEVE, DREAM and DARE."

My review..sorry sorry just view :-) about Robo(Endhiran)

Recently watched the much hyped movie of recent past.."Robo" along with my younger sisters and brothers..why I was mentioning is this is because I was obseving my little cousin of 10 whether he would get excited or really enjoy it ..ofcourse he didnt :-)

As its more like a fantasy movie ....You will be enjoying it better if you don't look for logics ..The way they planned scientist charector is good like ..they made sure that Rajini dont do any fihgts as it is being cattered to the audiance by "robo".Sankar like Rajamaouli in telugu always tries to satisfy so called mass male tastes by intensionally creating some situational demand for scenes like rape or insulting girls etc. Boys movie is example for it..Ofcouse I dont like/believe in such and more over many good directors starting from Mani ratnam to Krishna Vamshi and Sekhar to Chandu proved that they are not really needed.    

They did body scan for Rajini and created robo like him.Rajini did well in negative role.

As I heard that they are using animatronics for the first time in India, I was concentrating on observing how that experiment would work out...I felt that animatronics should have been lot better. They are still up to the standard of Ammoru , Anji , Devi etc who were made by using only CG technology. Ofcourse Sankar and team would have had their own boundations to wind up the movie and release because of  film getting delayed, getting stopped for some time due to change of producers, back step by financiers etc . But the efforts put by the team are really appreciable. What ever the reasons are ,It would have got more appreciaton or admiration if they would have succeeded in using animatronics like Steven succeeded in making us feel that dinosaurs are real in Jurassic Park by using animatronic ensuring appropriate lighting for scenes in which metal is used.

 

Though I am not admirer of Shankar's style of film making , I admire his dare of "thinking big" and achieving it to good extent. The way he created hype , did publicity and marketted the movie are good.

 

 

Thanks.

Emotional maturity....

Got this in a group email from "Gems of wisdom" series.. found it worthy sharing as we all need this for better health and management of things....just copy pasting it hoping that you all will like it!

The husband and wife gifted themselves a new car for their first wedding anniversary. They drove downtown, watched a movie, and finally returned home. They didn't have the garage facility. So the car was parked in the street. To their utter shock, when they woke up the next morning, the car was missing. The car was stolen. First car, first wedding anniversary gift, and they had enjoyed the car for just a day. The wife couldn't take it. With misty eyes she sank into the sofa. The husband too was a little jolted, but he said, “The car is lost. You can feel heavy about it. You can take it easy. Either way the car is lost. Then, why not take it easy.” She gave him a cold stare and the moment passed.

A logical question: When the car, how can anyone take it easy? But what else can you do? Feel heavy, if you want; take it easy, if you want - either way, after the emotional outburst, what has to be done has to be done. In this case, the police complaint has to be lodged; the insurance has to be claimed… what has to be done has to be done.

You left the milk a little longer than required on the gas stove. The boiled milk is beginning to overflow from all sides of the vessel. Scream, wail, screech, get tensed, and let your BP to shoot up…let your home's atmosphere spoil... after all the emotional outbursting, now what? You will switch the stove off, offload the milk vessel and clean the kitchen countertop. In addition you may loose atleast tiny judgement by getting tensed.So, eventually what has to be done will be done.

Here we are not discussing about not being emotional, but about avoiding the dramatic emotional reactions. Emotional maturity - yes! Emotional Outburst - no!

Emotional maturity is not about avoiding emotions, but it is about avoiding the emotional outbursts . Anyways, what has to be done has to be done. Then, why getting worried?

 
Thanks.

Believe in your self..

Sharing some nice forward....hope you like it..

"Believe in yourself and your values,

 Don't sell out when things go wrong,

 Don't let anything get you down, Always bounce back up.

 Set goals for your future, Never settle for anything less.

 Realize that there are others in the world,

 with much bigger problems than you.

 Appreciate the good things in your life,

 and be thankful for the time you have with your loved ones,

 Spend more time with people who applaud you,

 Never lose any who treats you as mollycoddle.

 Appreciate the simple things in life,

 and don't get caught up in material things."

Neglected comman man is suffering...

Common man of AP is suffering from many problems ... unable to meet even basic needs, suffering from contagious diseases,lack of hygiene, lack of proper roads, huge number of people in agencies died of viral fevers,from scarcity of medicines etc these should be taken up...Health emergency should be declared in the areas needed. Farmers are suffering from scarcity of fertilisers.Students who hail from poor and middle class families are facing problems to join professional courses because of change in policy of fee reimbursement. 

Media,intellectuals and leaders... please highlight the needed things... but not just controversies and hartals.

Any one can make statements if press people come to them, one can easily create controversies as they need no great efforts or qualities but a true leader will think what is good for his people rather than what is liked by them.Being in position to lead the comman man , media should  focus on the issues of common man rather than pampering only for trp ratings . Ofcourse I understand that you are all here for business but still some professions and business are supposed to have moral responsibilty for sure.

I also request not to rub or create ineligible as leaders by giving a scope. People who fought for basic needs of people and solved problems , lead people in right path than just pleasing them ..should be potrayed as leaders .But not if they just support people even when they went wrong by taking a wrong path.

Thanks.

Empathy..

Dear frnz,

I would like to share about a realisation that I missed

( It may sound a little pompous if I say that most of my frnz for that matter most of poeple who are passionate about achieving great things miss this until they realise.. :-) )

Some times little ones make us realise those with their tears or anger..like my little sister did ..

She made me realise that I need to have more EMPATHY...in taking decisions for them or guiding them...(ofcourse it was taken other way instead of care and concern that nothing must go wrong for our dear ones..but we are supposed to realise or make some one realise in a gentle manner..)..

coincidentally an email came in group about reasons for failing in relations with dear ones stressed on lack of Empathy ,in a weekly magazine today some one mentioned the same as area of improvement of Farhan akthar whom we all know as a genious and as good human..

Hence all this made me post this so that even my frnz can check with them whether they are also missing empathy... :-)

Thanks.

Respect fear...

People who ever are very brave are so just because they have healthy respect towards fear..they will read, listen and understand all the vulnerable cases of any new thing that they are going to do,including the worst/dangerous situations that could happen .They will find solutions for all of them, psychologically fix their mind to deal in all such situations and even with tough people. Then obviously they will become brave as there will be no such new or strange situations left for them which they can not deal.One who rules out such analysis by saying that it is negative thinking or pessimism,  will be soon in troubles.

Anni konala visleshana leni dairyam oka moorkatvam--Swami Vivekananda.

Fear is the father of courage and the mother of safety--Henry H. Tweedy

Fear is the highest fence--Dudley Nichols

"A good scare is worth more than good advice"-- Edgar Watson Howe

To take as an example, all top companys which are founded and lead by great leaders, highly skilled and educateds do have healthy fear  and they call it "risk analysis" for which there will be a separate wing of highly paid professionals . As you must be aware, the cases they imagine before starting any project would be like..what if all bad resources join? what if we fail to deliver?what if all the thnings collapse? etc etc..and we are appreciating it ... we are supposed to do such analysis in our life aswell.

Once we are aware of all probable cases and are ready to avoid and to get rid of them, we will be having "true courage" which is a primary quality of an achiever.

Courage is not the lack of fear but the ability to face it-- Lt. John B. Putnam Jr.

Anni purana grandhala saramsanni 3 vakyallo cheppotchu

1. Dairyam ga undu 2.Dairyam ga undu 3.Dairyam ga undu--Swami Vivekananda

Be brave by working out on all the cases of fear.

Salute ...

My salute to all those who did lot of sacrifices to bring independence to us and to soldiers who sacrificed their lives to protect it.

Feeling proud to say that I am an Indian.

Still a long way to go to see India as self sustained with out poverty, corruption, hunger deaths,illeteracy, child labour etc.

Let us all take an oath that we will contribute to the extent possible in making that dream come true soon!

Qualities needed to become succesful entrepreneurs.....

Nice article(got from a training session)!putting here for my little dear ones who are of same wavelength as me and are in dreams of becoming entrepreneurs..

Integrity

Someone once said, “Right is right even if no one is doing it, and wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it”. We all hear the news stories about corporate greed and corruption. However, the truth is, successful entrepreneurs and millionaires rated “being honest with everyone” the number one factor of their success.

Self-discipline

To become a successful entrepreneur you have to be highly disciplined. If you are trying to build a business from the ground up, a lot of times you’ll be faced with doing all the job functions of a company, such as accounting, marketing, web design, and customer service. You have to develop the ability to get things done, even when you don’t feel like it. Luckily, you can learn self-discipline with the right information and conscious effort.

People management skills

Another critical factor among successful entrepreneurs is having good people management skills. You should make an effort to genuinely like, respect, and appreciate other people. The ability to manage and make them not only work but making them to give 100% of what they can will carry you far in all walks of life, especially your own business.

Supportive relation

Don’t worry that you are alone. I’m not suggesting that you get married before becoming an entrepreneur. That is already a proven barrier.But you should know that having a supportive relation is another big success factor for entrepreneurs. Many times as a business owner, you’ll face tough times , downfalls and risky decisions.

Your brother or sister or some one whom you can really trust may be of amazing support to you. One would make enough business mistakes over a course of time. Having a trusted relation that truly believes in your goals, dreams and abilities is priceless.

Strong and Ethic

There’s no substitute for hard work when it comes to becoming a successful entrepreneur. Most people want to do the fastest and easiest solution when it comes to work. If you want to be a success, dedicate yourself to persistent, productive, old fashioned hard work.

Passion

It almost goes without saying that in order to become a successful entrepreneur, you need to be passionate about your business. That doesn’t necessarily mean you have to build a business around something you love. You can (and should) identify a profitable market and then build your business.

Ed dale talked about this in the 30 Day Challenge when he brought up the niche market of trout fishing. He pursued it because of its profit potential. He admits that he didn’t know anything about trout fishing prior to starting a website about it. He became passionate about his niche and learned all he could. Now it’s one of his most profitable businesses.

Loving your business will also make it easier to get through the start-up phase, and other future obstacles.

Strong leadership qualities

Being able to communicate effectively, motivate others, sell your ideas, and be decisive, are just a few of the qualities of a good leader. In order to become a successful entrepreneur you must dedicate yourself to improving your leadership skills and abilities.

Competitiveness

Competition is everywhere. In business, it’s the survival of the fittest. If you can out-market and outperform your competitors, your chance of being a successful entrepreneur will be much greater. Play to win, but never sacrifice your integrity for the sake of a few bucks.

Well-organized

Most struggle with this one . But one should try to improve organizational skills. One of the main reasons small businesses fail is a lack of organization. If you too are unorganized, don’t worry too much. Everyone can learn organization skills with enough hard work, practice, and persistence.

Sales ability

The ability to convince others to make a conscious buying decision is a key becoming a successful entrepreneur. Sales guru Zig Ziglar says, “People don’t buy for logical reasons. They buy for emotional reasons”. Being able to appeal to other people’s emotions is the key to selling your ideas, products, or services.

Two characteristics and qualities of millionaire entrepreneurs that had the least impact on their success

Here are a couple of surprising factors that ranked among the lowest in regards to, the success of entrepreneurs.

1.Luck

Some people look at those with money, fame, or a successful business and say “they were just lucky” or “they were in the right place at the right time”. The truth is, most self-made millionaires and successful entrepreneurs don’t depend on the lottery, gambling, or other people to make them a success.

People see actors and musicians who suddenly become the next big thing and say, “wow they were lucky to be such an overnight success”. When in actuality, most actors and musicians work diligently for years in order to achieve such fame.

There’s a good quote that says, “The harder I work the luckier I get”. I also like the quote “Luck is when preparation meets opportunity”. Don’t make the mistake of believing that luck determines how successful an entrepreneur you can be.

2.Education

Another surprise revealed in this survey was that education (including the choices “attending a top rated school” and “graduating at/near the top of my class”) was ranked near the bottom as a factor of success. The lack of a formal degree should not keep you from pursuing your own business.

This doesn’t mean you won’t have to learn. On the contrary, successful entrepreneurs and millionaires are good at gathering the knowledge they need in order to apply it to their business. The average millionaire reads one non-fiction book per month. Education is important in life, but getting bad grades in high school is not going to keep you from becoming a successful entrepreneur.

To wrap things up

As you can see, the most significant factors that will determine your success as an entrepreneur deal with how well you deal with other people and your own personal behaviors. Our society tells us that we have to get good grades, to get into a good college, to get a good “secure” job. Instead of teaching us to innovate, think creatively, and dream big, we’re taught to fear failure, wait until age 70 to retire, and to depend on the government for our needs . I hope you won’t fall into the same pattern of thinking.

Instead, I hope you’ll take this bit of wisdom on your journey to become a successful entrepreneur.“Whatever you mind can conceive, you can achieve”
