Lessons Learnt

This is a special section of my blog. This contains things that I have learnt from life and I want to share with all. [The list will keep on getting longer ...]

1. Do not mix Micro and Macro management
2. The biggest issues arise from places where they are least expected to
3. At the macro level, economics becomes politics [19 Jan, 2007]
4. "Entities that are limited in their concept of space are vulnerable over time, especially in changing environments." [27 Jan, 2007]
5. A big change in life is a result of many small and invisible (unmanifested) changes. That's why typically greatness is not so fast to achieve. [18 March, 2007]
6. Jargons make things interesting and mysterious (I found what is topline and bottomline for finance... topline = revenue, bottomline = net profits) [14 April, 2007]
7. "Do not race against others, race against your previous self" (credit - The monk who sold his Ferrari) [07 July 2008]

There are seven sins in the world: Wealth without work,
Pleasure without conscience, Knowledge without character, Commerce without morality,
Science without humanity,
Worship without sacrifice and Politics without principle.

We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers. They see things in the soft haze of a spring day or in the red fire of a long winter's evening. Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nurse them through bad days till they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.

Good Quote
The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge
