Sunday Night Fever!

April 24, 2006


Life is really tough on sunday night.
In any weekdays, atleast we have a hope that weekend is coming.

On Friday night, it is the BEST, because we have two individual days for ourselves and whatever we want we can do!

On Saturday night, it has its own speciality. We are in the middle of the weekend and we have one more day to go before the weekdays to start.

On Sunday night, it is all sad outside – anywhere we go. In movie theatres, in malls or in bars, it is all sad – not much enthu there. From next day, we need to work for 5 solid days.

Well, this is how it works!

Start a business of software in Madurai!

April 24, 2006


After elections, I am sure Madurai is expected to have a software park sometime in a year’s time.

Start thinking in terms of building a software company now in the secondary cities – like Madurai, Tirunelveli etc., and it is the right time.

1. Take up domestic projects in India only, that might give a good amount of revenue. Currently CRM and ERP products are really needed in India, and that has to be tapped perfectly.

2. Provide software products, projects and websits FREE for Non-governmental organizations.

3. Produce software products on demand and start exporting to various countries.

4. Production cost is very low in secondary cities like Madurai. Start producing them.

5. Sub-outsourcing is one of things we can take up. Take up part of their projects from the main cities in India like Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai.

6. Contacts is going to be very important here. Networking is very important.

7. If you are not good in networking, then hire someone who is good in that. Partnership is also another thing, we might need to opt for.

8. If Madurai is slowly getting the infrastructure for industries, let us tap that gradually for building our software companies.

9. If you own a software company already, network with other software companies to mutually benefit.

What does Bhagavad Gita teach?

April 24, 2006


What does the Bhagavadgita teach? You are free to act or not to act or choose how to act. Work is your jurisdiction. But after performance the result falls into the jurisdiction of laws of nature. The result does not belong to your jurisdiction.

Every action ends in a result: this is a scientific truth. Therefore if a contrary or unexpected result comes it should not disturb your mind because the result is not in your hands. You should not internalize the situation by considering yourself to be a failure because the result is an objective reality. Failure or success is a subjective perception. It is also affected by so many other factors like karma, which are simply beyond you. All you are expected to do, as an effective manager is work sincerely giving importance to minute details and with perfect concentration. This demands the practice of meditation which is yet another contribution of Indian philosophy. Concentration the mind eliminating any disturbing thought while you are in your workplace.

Bollywood actresses in trouble!

April 24, 2006

Madurai court ordered the arrests of two Bollywood actresses following complaints they had posed in “obscene” photographs which were published in a newspaper, officials said. The court issued the arrest warrants after actresses Shilpa Shetty and Reema Sen did not turn up in a court in southern Madurai city in response to earlier summons, the Press Trust of India (PTI) reported. A local lawyer had alleged that the regional Tamil language daily, the Tamil Murasu, had published “very sexy blow-ups” of the Bollywood sirens in its issues in December and January.

Lawyer T. Dhakshinamoorthy said in his court petition that the pictures violated the Indecent Representation of Women Act, and were misleading the youth.

Is it a mistake of actresses or the publications?

E factor leads E factor

April 24, 2006


Entrepreneurship is the best solution for removing poverty in India. If we have a 10% of this E factor, then we will become well to do. So the basic problem leads to literacy of the nation. If education is provided properly, then everybody tries to earn their own cup of rice, which leads to appoint right leaders and lead the country properly. Better education leads to E factor too.

India needs lots of entrepreneurs

April 24, 2006


India needs lot of entrepreneurs. This is what Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam also says. let us take a scenario- if more entrepreneurs(small/medium/large enterprises) are created, then that leads to new companies – see take for example Company X – since Company X will pay tax as a company and also all the employees are paying tax. All the employees are employed. Your family get savings, out of your salary. Since Company X is located in Madurai – you all must be having lunch and dinner in and around your area, which gets more business for the mess and restaurant. It actually goes on like a chain reaction, which improves more business, which is actually good for our indian economy – micro(individual/family) and macro(country) level.
