"Why We Shout In Anger"
"Why We Shout In Anger"
A Hindu saint who was visiting
river Ganges to take bath found
a group of family members on
the banks, shouting in anger at
each other. He turned to his
disciples smiled'n asked.
'Why do people shout in anger
shout at each other?'
Disciples thought for a while,
one of them said,'Because we
lose our calm, we shout.'
'But, why should you shout when
the other person is just next to
you? You can as well tell him
what you have to say in a soft
manner.'asked the saint
Disciples gave some other
answers but none satisfied the
other disciples.
Finally the saint explained, .
'When two people are angry at
each other, their hearts distance
a lot. To cover that distance they
must shout to be able to hear
each other. The angrier they are,
the stronger they will have to
shout to hear each other to
cover that great distance.
What happens when two people
fall in love? They don't shout at
each other but talk softly,
Because their hearts are very
close. The distance between
them is either nonexistent or
very small...'
The saint continued,'When they
love each other even more, what
happens? They do not speak,
only whisper'n they get even
closer to each other in their
love. Finally they even need not
whisper, they only look at each
other'n that's all. That is how
close two people are when they
love each other.'
He looked at his disciples and
said.
'So when you argue do not let
your hearts get distant, Do not
say words that distance each
other more, Or else there will
come a day when the distance is
so great that you will not find
the path to return.'

10 Things You Can Learn From Steve Jobs
10 Things You Can Learn From Steve
Jobs
Steve Jobs was a technology and
business icon who founded Apple at
age 21. At that time, he would have
been called a whiz kid— but now
this age group of entrepreneurs are
called Millennials and are a new
demographic. We grew up in a
world where Apple was a fruit
second and an electronic first. With
18 billion apps already downloaded,
Steve Jobs didn't just pave the way
for our generation—he created our
entire way of life. Below are the 10
things his life and career example
can teach us.
Go where the puck is going to be:
Steve Jobs followed Wayne Gretzky's
advice: "A good hockey player plays
where the puck is. A great hockey
player plays where the puck is going
to be." Jobs went where he saw
technology was going, not where it
had been. Don't just focus on where
you have been or what currently
exists. Focus on what tomorrow will
look like.
A good thing takes time to build:
When Jobs first bought Pixar
Studios, it was a mess. Their first
full feature movie, Toy Story, took
years to develop and build. It took a
lot of money and patience. And,
Jobs had that. Many Gen Yers lack
patience. Job hopping today is an
all-too-common but highly
undesirable trait.
Differentiate yourself: His black
turtleneck shirts and unique
presentation style made Jobs stand
out. In a sea of tech entrepreneurs,
he found a way to make geeky cool.
Gen Y as a generation has been
good at standing out as a group,
but you have to stand out as an
individual as well. Be memorable.
Don't use time as an excuse: Jobs
was only 56 when he died, and like
the rest of us, he also had only 24
hours in a day. But, he
accomplished more in one short life
than most will in multiple lifetimes.
Give up the excuse that you are too
busy or there isn't enough time.
Maintain focus: This is a rare quality
in people across generations, but
Jobs was a master at it. He focused
his time and attention on the things
that mattered most to him and the
company.
Looks matter: You don't have to be
a good designer to appreciate good
design. Apple's products stood out
above others because they were
impeccably designed and
aesthetically appealing. Simply, they
looked good. But design extends to
all things. Don't turn in a report if
it doesn't look good. Take the extra
effort to format the email before
you send it to your boss. Design is
in the details. Don't ignore it.
Learn when to step up and when to
step down: When Apple realized it
needed Jobs back in charge in 1996,
he took the helm with intention.
And, when Michael Dell
recommended that Apple sell its
shares and apologize to
shareholders, Jobs ignored his
comments and kept building. But,
when he felt that he could no longer
do his job, he stepped aside. To be
truly successful, you have to know
when to step up as a leader, and
when to step aside—also as a true
leader.
Learn to cross-pollinate: Jobs often
said that if he hadn't taken a class
in calligraphy at Reed College, he
would have never come up with
different typefaces for the Mac.
Sticking to learning about your
industry is great, but the best ideas
come from widening your scope of
learning.
Understand the value of a team:
When asked about his business
model, Jobs once replied in an
interview, "My model for business is
The Beatles: They were four guys
that kept each others' negative
tendencies in check; they balanced
each other. And the total was
greater than the sum of the parts.
Great things in business are not
done by one person, they are done
by a team of people."
Don't listen to the critics: And the
higher you go, the more they
clamor. Steve Jobs had critics, but
he chose to ignore them. Jobs
personified the words uttered by
Theodore Roosevelt some 100 years
ago —"It is not the critic who
counts: not the man who points out
how the strong man stumbles or
where the doer of deeds could have
done better. The credit belongs to
the man who is actually in the
arena, whose face is marred by dust
and sweat and blood, who strives
valiantly, who errs and comes up
short again and again, because there
is no effort without error or
shortcoming, but who knows the
great enthusiasms, the great
devotions, who spends himself for a
worthy cause; who, at the best,
knows, in the end, the triumph of
high achievement, and who, at the
worst, if he fails, at least he fails
while daring greatly, so that his
place shall never be with those cold
and timid souls who knew neither
victory nor defeat."
