Am I Right????

Often the basis of any argument is I am right. But the situation always demand what is right?
A classic example is let's say a truck is speeding towards you on the wrong side, but you are on the right side of the lane. Now if you keep on arguing that you are right then possibly you will not be there to argue that you were right. The situation demanded you to get away from your "RIGHT" Lane and determine what is right at that time?

A good captain/leader is the one who understands the situation that what is right at the given time/situation but not who is right? If you are able to understand many of your struggles with your peers/families will go away instantly.

So always baseline the question "What is Right?" and then probably you can move on to another series of questions of why, when and how.

Why MBA?

In one of the MBA Aspirants forum it was disheartening to see the way how most of the future managers were getting into an act of mud-slinging. But what most of us fail to see is the big picture.
There is a complete lack of vision. Education is like a long term investment for which you reap the benefits later on. If you are looking for a small term investment, a professional certification during your job might help. I do agree that the RoI is calculated while investing but in small term plans the RoI may or may not be high. It is a calculated risk which you take. Your salary is not a derivative of only one parameter (read degree from a very reputable insti) but various parameters. Your attitude, aptitude, decision making skills, communication skills, logical skills (real time and not what you do in your entrance exam) do matter when someone is paying you. Companies don't pay anyone because he/she is from IIM or IMT or Harvard, but they pay because they are going to reap benefits from your skill sets and much higher than what they are paying you.
If you have the perfect blend of the skill sets you will be paid the due salary which you deserve. MBA Aspirants do think that since they have made to a good insti, it is their right to be paid. But the organizations don't work that way. And if you have the right skill sets, you have the right and duty to show the skill sets and get what you deserve.
As far as faking of data/inflated figures are concerned every insti/organization has their own way of putting up the data and mind it they will never quote wrong figures, but its in the eyes of the analyzer that how he interprets the data. Data Interpretation is very much important for doing the research on which insti/organization to join. Don't go by the sentiments and put in your own research work to find out what's best for you.
Grow up people!!! Don't be like a child who is always spoon fed. You have every right to go according to your taste and choice.

Is Hindi our National Language?

It was indeed a shocking revelation that India does not have any National language and I googled this topic after reading the MNS news.
All these years, I was under the impression that Hindi was our National Language and if the ex-political big-wigs have it their own way then the issues could have been handled by our ex-ministers then we would have seen a more synchronised country. Had it not been Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel's effort and his toughness, we would not have been living in India. We would rather have been living in either the Mysore Country or may be Hyderabad Country or may be Madras Country. But had he been given a politically free hand to deal with all the issues, we would have seen "A Better India".A Nation means a nation, it does not mean Marathis, Biharis, Kannadis, Tamilians or Mallus. It was meant to be Indians but seeing the state even the soul of Sardar will be weeping that why he left the task in between. And it is actually what is being taught to the generations coming ahead. The regional biases, religional biases, cultural biases and what not. People do talk about Developed Countries like America, Singapore, UK, France and wonder that why they cannot become like them or when they will become like them. But have these people really did a "manthan" that why they become developed countries so fast. I guess the answer lies in oneness, removing barriers whether internal or external, working towards only one goal - betterment of society. People might argue with certain instances that this has happened wrong but what I am saying is that atleast there is an effort.Are we lacking that effort?
