Don't Quit- Poem

Since last few days I've been listening to various poems by the budding poets around the globe and enjoyed most of them. But then I came across this one which was so serene and motivating, that I really couldn't resist myself from sharing it with you guys. It somewhat goes like this:

When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit, 
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with it's twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems low
You may succeed with another blow
Often the gold is nearer than,
It seems to be a faint and faltering man.
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup
And he learnt too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
You can never tell how close you are
It maybe near when it seems afar.
So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit
It's when things go wrong, that you must not quit.

Hope you found this poem as fascinating as I did.
Thanks.

The 2X3X Mindset

Does the title seems to be a bit abstruse. Let me break it down for you. This is something which I learned a few moths ago and guess what? It is doing wonders in my life! This principle states that if you want to  double  your income and your impact in your organisation, then you must  triple  your investment in your self-development.  You can't be progressing in your career if you are not willing to work on yourself and strive to be a better version of yourself with each passing day. What you'll have 2 years from now, 5 years from now,10 years from now solely depends on what you become and what are the things which you are willing to sacrifice today.  Your income hardly exceeds your self worth and once you acknowledge this very fact, you'll start realising that there is a very urgent need to start learning new skills and be very competitive. There are innumerable things which are out there in the world which can aide you reach your des...

Why I like the books of Dan Brown

We have all at one point in our lives regarded ourselves as bibliophiles. We have all been in a place where we get so engrossed into our literary paperbacks that the reality seems to be a at a far distant from us. You might have already, that I am no exception. I consider myself as a voracious reader of books who reads various genres since I don't want to deprive myself of the magnum opus of the literary greats in their respective subjects. Off late, I have been reading a lot of thriller books and who else could be better that the 'master of thriller', Dan   Brown . Literally guys, I have fell in love with his books! He has cracked the 'bestseller' code.The protagonist, Robert Langdon, a Harvard symbiologist, who strives to decipher seemingly impossible codes and tasks to save the planet. He is no less than a superhero for me, who unlike other superheroes, uses his brainpower rather than muscle power to get things done. Enigmatic puzzles and a complet...

Being Relentless

Roger Federer, one of the most decorated sportsperson, holds the record of having the highest number of Grand Slams under his belt-18. Usain Bolt did something which no other person in the whole of mankind could do- he ran 100 meters in mere 9.58 seconds. I can go on writing about these great personalities for hours, but what I need you to understand is this: they were not overnight sensations, they did not become great accidentally, rather they strived for it, they breathed it, ate it and slept it. It is said that dreams are not those which you see when you are asleep, but they are those which doesn't let you sleep until you make them into a reality. Relentlessness is the trait which is common among all the greats. Famous footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo once said 'I have cars, I have money, I have everything. But you don't know how much sacrifice I had to do to get to the place where I am now. I had to be away from my family and had to go through inn...
