Recapping My Facebook status updates during 2011 Jan to Dec

1. Good is the Enemy of Great……& that is one of the key reasons why we have so little that becomes great…..
   • I got this when I read the “Good to Great “Book written by Jim Collins.  It is 100% true that people stop their process once they believe they are doing good. Then they fail to take the next step to be great.
2. Not words win arguments… only action…..
   • It is obvious that everyday we spend our valuable time in arguing and justifying.  But it’s always simple to finish any arguments. If anyone argues with you, and if you don’t agree with them, keep quiet, save your time, show it in your action.
3. A humble visionary, leader, teacher and inspiration. He will be sadly missed but his legacy will live on to inspire countless others as he has inspired me. Thank you Steve Jobs and rest in peace
   • Loss of my admired personality, Steve Job. I have used him as an example in several places, several training programmes. He is not in the world today, but his legendary marks will always remain until the death of this universe.
4. “When You Are In The Light, Everything Follows You, But When You Enter Into The Dark, Even Your Own Shadow Doesn’t Follow You.
   • In life when you have money, you can see a lot of people around you. Though you have negatives they never speak about it when you have wealth. They do what you say, they agree what you say. But when you are alone without anything no one will be there for you, to care , to cry or even to help.
5. Coin Always Makes Sound, But The Currency Notes Are Always Silent. So When Your Value Increases Keep Yourself Calm and Silent”
6. You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.
   • Without taking risks you can’t lead a perfect live. If you want to realize the real rhythm of life take risks. Higher the risk bigger the return.
7. There are no perfect fathers, but a father will always love perfectly. Remember to Care for those who care for you…………… Watch this video…..
   • An amazing video which made me cry.
8. The best students are those who never quite believe their professors …..
   • Obviously.
9. LEARNING TO LIVE WITHOUT RECOGNITION IS A SKILL!If anyone ever tells you that your work is unprofessional, remember:amateurs built the Ark and professionals built the Titanic.DON’T LOOK TO BECOME A PERSON OF SUCCESS, LOOK INSTEAD TO BECOME A
   PERSON OF VALUE!

10. Take the first step in faith, you don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step…….

• Simply thousand miles of journey begins with the single step, if we actually worry about the 100 steps we won’t make the first step.

11. If you win, you need not have to explain…If you lose, you should not be there to explain..

12. In a day, when you don’t come across any problems, you can be sure that you are travelling in a wrong path…

• If the life is so smooth the life won’t be interesting.  Simply a smooth sea won’t make good sailors. When you face problems only you will be polished up to face the future challenges.

13. When it rains, most birds head for shelter; the eagle is the only bird that, in order to avoid the rain, starts flying above the cloud. …
Winners win by pushing their limits until their limits become the norm.

• One of my famous saying. Absolutely amazing. A story which impressed me. The story of an Eagle.

14. Strength is a matter of a made up mind

15. Pain is temporary, quitting lasts forever- Lace Armstrong

• Whenever you start something, if you fail giving up is not the solution for everything.  Take the pain, try your level best, win the war, be a mercenary.

Holiday in Sri Lanka

Sometimes when on holiday you desire for culture, history, nature and a profusion of places to go sightseeing without investing so much money. Sometimes you just wanted to lie down and enjoy the sounds and smells of the nature without the disturbance of civilization noises. Sometimes you wanted to enjoy food which is nourishes with spices of eastern culture and garnish in western style.  Other times you just wish for a stunning beach and plenty of fine dining along with peaceful and safety dives.

Sri Lanka is the most natural sightseeing friendly island in the Indian Ocean and the popularity and number of tourists coming to the island keep on and still continues to grow and grow.

Other than the beaches and historical importance, Sri Lanka is also an island which defines convention. According to island bio-geographic theory, small islands don’t have large mammals. Regrettably for theory Sri Lanka is an exemption, as the largest terrestrial mammal in Asia, the Asian Elephant, is found on the island. Sri Lanka is beyond hesitation that the best place in Asia to see the Asian Elephant. Uda Walawe National Park, to the south of the central mountain massif, and the tourists are assured to see elephants. During September and October an annual concentration of elephants, called ‘The Gathering’, takes place on the receding shores of the Minneriya Lake in Minneriya National Park.  ‘The Gathering’ is surely one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on the planet.

The tourism merchandise in Sri Lanka is growing and so too does the infrastructure of Sri Lankan transportation and accommodation facilities. There are mountains to tramp and hills to trek. These hiking spots are improved so that the tourists can enjoy the trekking of mountain with the worry about the safety of the lives. Sri Lanka is not only about the beach and what lies beneath the brilliant blue waters. It’s the culture which prevails in Sri Lanka which makes it special. Ever smiling, generous and always obliging people of Sri Lanka make the tourist feels they are welcomed to this wonderful island- A promise like no other.
