CONSIDERATIONS FOR 2016
1. ON EARNING:
Never depend on single income. Make investment to
create a second chance.
_________________________________
2. ON SPENDING:
If you buy things you do not need, soon you will have to sell things you need.
________________________________
3. ON SAVINGS:
Do not save what is left after spending, but spend what is left after saving.
________________________________
4. ON TAKING RISK:
Never test the depth of a river with both feet.
________________________________
5. ON INVESTMENT:
Do not put all eggs in one basket.
________________________________
6. ON EXPECTATIONS:
Honesty is a very expensive gift. Do not expect it from cheap people.
________________________________
7. Past is a waste paper, present is a newspaper, and future is a question paper. Come out of your past, control the present, and secure the future.
________________________________
8. When bad things happen in your life, you have three choices. You can either let it define you, let it destroy you or you can let it strengthen you.
_______________________________
9. Our eyes are in the front because it is more important to look ahead than to look backwards.
_______________________________
10. We use pencil when we were young, but now we use pens. Do you know why? Because mistakes in childhood can easily be erased, unlike now.
Have a prosperous 2016.

Fish Story
๐
STORY
The Japanese have always loved fresh fish
But the water close to Japan has not held many fish for decades.
So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever.
The further the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring the fish
If the return trip took more time, the fish were not fresh.
To solve this problem, fish companies installed freezers on their boats.
They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea.
Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.
However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen fish and they did not like the taste of frozen fish
The frozen fish fetched a lower price.
So, fishing companies installed fish tanks.
They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin.
After a little thrashing around, they were tired, dull, and lost their fresh-fish taste.
The fishing industry faced an impending crisis!
But today, they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan.
How did they manage...?
To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks but with a small shark
The fishl are challenged and hence are constantly on the move.
The challenge they face keeps them alive and fresh!
Have you realized that some of us are also living in a pond but most of the time tired and dull....?
Basically in our lives, sharks are new challenges to keep us active.
If you are steadily conquering
challenges, you are happy.
Your challenges keep you energized.
Don't create Success and revel in it in a state of inertia.
You have the resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.
Put a shark in your tank this year and see how far you can really go....

A good interpretation of Mahabharata
He wanted to make it his life's work to study and research about the epic.
He also knew that it was not possible till he went to the spot where the greatest war took place.
It was said in the texts that eighty percent of the fighting male population of the civilization was wiped out in the eighteen days of the war.
He stood on the ground, the sun overhead; it was hot, the wind hiding the far reaches of the grounds with columns of dust.
He looked around and wondered if the war really happened, if the ground beneath him had soaked all that blood, if the great Pandavas and Krishna stood where he stood.
"You will never know the truth about that!" said an aging soft voice.
Sanjay turned around to find an Old man in saffron robes appearing out of a column of dust. He had a long white beard and eyes that could settle an indignant storm.
"I know you are here to find out about the Kurukshetra war, but you cannot know about that war till you know what the real war is about." the Old man said enigmatically.
"What do you mean?"
Sanjay instantly knew that he was in the presence of someone who knew more about the war than any living person he had ever met .
"The Mahabharata is an Epic, a ballad, perhaps a reality but definitely a philosophy."
The Old man smiled luring Dev into more questions.
"Can you tell me what the philosophy is then?"
Sanjay requested.
"Sure. Here goes," began the Old man.
"The Pandavas are nothing but your five senses, sight, smell, taste, touch and sound and do you know what the Kauravas are?"
he asked narrowing his eyes.
Sanjay shook his head.
"The Kauravas are the hundred vices that attack your senses everyday but you can fight them and do you know how?"
Sanjay shook his head again.
"When Krishna rides your chariot!"
The Old man smiled brighter and Sanjay gasped at that gem of insight.
"Krishna is your inner voice ,your soul, your guiding light and if you let your life in his hands you have nothing to worry."
Sanjay was stupefied but came around quickly with another question. "Then why are Dronacharya and Bhishma fighting for the Kauravas, if they are vices?"
The Old man nodded, sadder for the question.
"It just means that as you grow up your perception of your elders change. The elders who you thought were perfect in your growing up years are not all that perfect. They have faults. And one day you will have to decide if they are for your good or your bad. Then you may also realize that you may have to fight them for the good. It is the hardest part of growing up and that is why the Geeta is important."
Sanjay slumped down on the ground, not because he was tired but because he could understand and was struck by the enormity of it all.
"What about Karna?" he whispered.
"Ah!" said the Old man. "You have saved the best for last. Karna is the brother to your senses, he is desire, he is a part of you but stands with the vices. He feels wronged and makes excuses for being the vices as your desire does all the time.
Does your desire not give you excuses to embrace vices?"
Sanjay nodded silently. He looked at the ground, consumed with a million thoughts, trying to put everything together and then when he looked up the Old man was gone.
He seemed to have disappeared in the column of dust.........

14 uses of Microwave oven no body told you.
If you have been using your microwave only for heating food, you probably don't know the multitude of uses it can be put into.
So before buying a new gadget for your kitchen, make sure you are making the optimum use of your microwave which alone can do the work of a number of expensive kitchen appliances.
- The freshness of cereals and crackers can be restored by heating them in full power for 30 seconds.
- Stale bread can be made soft and fresh again in the microwave by wrapping the bread slices with a damp kitchen towel and heating them in full power for 10-15 seconds.
- You can quickly boil the potatoes by putting them in a poly bag, sprinkling some water over them and then running them in the microwave on full power for 5-6 minutes.
- Chop off the top and bottom of onions, microwave them for 30 seconds and then peel them without shedding a single tear! And no, it does not impact their taste.
- It becomes very easy to peel garlic if you microwave it for a few seconds as the skin comes off very easily.
- You can toast nuts and almonds faster in the microwave, rather than doing the conventional way which is time consuming. Spread the nuts on a microwaveable plate, set the heat on high, and let it sit for 1 minute, stir and microwave again. Repeat this process for 4-5 minutes or till done.
- If honey or jam has crystallized, just remove the lid, place the jar in the microwave, and heat for two minutes.
- You can make clarified butter or ghee in microwave in an effortless and fuss free manner. Beat the cream in a blender. Pour it in a microwave safe glass bowl (don't use plastic even if it is microwave safe) and heat on high for 10 to 15 minutes or till the ghee separates. But be very careful as making ghee involves very high temperatures and there is always a danger of spilling over, burning and scalding.
- Place the herbs on a paper towel and microwave on high for 2-3 minutes. Your dried herbs are ready. You can also use your microwave to dry soggy foods.
- If you feel your cereals or spices are getting spoilt, just microwave them for 1-2 minutes and all lurking bugs will say goodbye.
- Microwave lemon for 20 seconds and you will be able to extract more juice.
- You can melt chocolate/jiggery/butter /cheese easily by heating them for 2 minutes.
- To get foamy milk for hot beverages, pour fresh milk about halfway in a jar. Close its lid and shake the milk until it becomes frothy. Remove the lid, place the jar in the microwave, and heat it high for 30 seconds. Pour it over your ht drink!
- It becomes easier to peel fruits like tomatoes, apricots and prunes if you microwave them for 1-2 minutes.

Life is beautiful
After some time son says "Dad. Because of the string the kite is not able to go any further higher."
Hearing this, the father smiles and breaks the string.
The kite goes higher and then shortly after that it comes and falls on the ground.
The child is very dejected and sad.
The father sits next to him and calmly explains:
"Son, in life we reach a certain level and then we feel that there are certain things that are not letting us grow any further like Home, Family, Culture etc.
We feel we want to be free from those strings which we believe are stopping us from going higher."
"But, remember son.
"That our home , family and culture are the things that will help us stay stable at the high heights
. If we try to break away from those strings our condition will be similar to the kite."we ll fall down soon..
Moral:
"Never go away from home culture, family, and relationships as they help keep us stable while you are flying high."
Life is Beautiful ๐ Stay connected.
