Have you boarded into your train?
Happened to see a television interview by Charles Correa, the contemporary architect from South India. Towards the end of the interview, the anchor asked Mr. Correa, his message to the young architects. Mr. Correa politely said the following,
Whenever you go to a Railway Station,
There is always a Train to leave the station.
Smartness lies in identifying the right train and
Greatness is in getting down in the next station, when it’s not yours.
A gist of all his wisdom. Really experience matters.
Have I boarded into my train or already in one ;~)??

Don’t go where the puck is, Go where it’s going to be
While reading a book, came across this nice quote by Wayne Gretzky, a retired Canadian professional ice hockey player.
“Don’t go where the puck is,
Go where it’s going to be” ~ Wayne Gretzky
A though provoking statement to ponder in depth. The masses alway go where the puck is and this differentiates the winners from the crowd. Proactive thinking always have an edge over the reactive thinking. Both are unique in their own dimensions. The grand successes of all the small experiments were attributed to this idea of betting on the future - a proactive move.
So get ready and be prepared to be proactive to succeed.

11 year old Network Administrator
Jon Penn, a 11 year old is the Network Administrator of an Arkansas school
The moment I read this information, was struck for a while and was thinking - what I was when 11 years old?. There were never such high responsibilties on my shoulders at 11. And it was twice as much this age, I became the Network Administrator of Corporate Network.
