Resolution to change!


Resolution to change!
<<Extract from December 2012 Netsoft's News Letter

If we look at our life in the past there shall be various instances that shall highlight the way things have changed both internal and external to us. The change would have happened with the intention to improve or by the external force. We need to take time to realize that ’Change is the only constant thing’. To have a constructive change, it is imperative to know our life’s inspirational purpose, that purpose which shall benefit you & enriches lives of others. This kind of high purpose goal in our life shall makes us to start the day with full of energy and look for the next day with full of enthusiasm. As human beings we are genetically programmed to resist change and be in our comfort zone, gravitational forces are so strong that it prevent us from moving to higher levels of living. The rocket uses more fuel during the first few minutes after lift-off than it does over the days that follow when it will cover more than half a million miles. 

‘Wisdom is knowing what to do next, skill is knowing how to do it and virtue is doing it’ observed David Starr Jordan. Smallest of actions towards that high purpose goal is the right way to begin and commitment at the initial stage is important towards making that difficult change to a habit. 

The resolution shall come to reality with the right steps like ‘Commit, Monitor, Practice and more important is to begin NOW!’

Persistence… Built to Last!

Persistence… Built to Last!
<<Extract from November 2012 Netsoft's News Letter

A short story – Fern & Bamboo.
Plant a fern and the bamboo seeds and do your best to take a very good care of them by giving light, water... The fern shall grow quickly from the earth. Its brilliant green will cover the floor. Yet nothing shall come from the bamboo seed. But do not quit on the bamboo! During the second year the fern shall grow more vibrant and plentiful. And again, nothing shall come from the bamboo seed. But do not quit on the bamboo!  In the third year, there shall be still nothing from the bamboo seed. But do not quit on the bamboo! During the fourth year, again, there shall be nothing from the bamboo seed. But do not quit on the bamboo! Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout shall emerge from the earth. Compared to the fern it shall be small and insignificant...  But just after 6 months the bamboo shall rise to over 100 feet tall. Bamboo would have spent the five years growing roots. Those roots shall make it strong and give it what it needed to survive.
“God’s creation shall not give any of its creations a challenge that it can’t handle."



All our struggling shall help us to grow our roots. "The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern ... Yet, they both make the forest beautiful." Being persistent & clear with our goal shall help us to rise higher & do our best to build the character, the career, the life & the company that we are associated.

Greatness is not a function of circumstance. Greatness, it turns out, is largely a matter of conscious choice, and discipline.  - Jim Collins
