I can’t post it then because I felt that for a person who for the last 4 months is continuously following this story and has day – night heard discussions on the same, it will be insane to just make an answer on a question which is too open ended. So HERE I GO – &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Anna Hazare – A phenomenon, Gentle men, Genuine, Straight forward &amp;amp; the best epitome of &amp;nbsp;Non&amp;nbsp; - Violence &amp;amp; People’s anger towards Financial Corruption. For he is a person of sheer respect &amp;amp; dignity, I salute him for his queer decisiveness, love for the nation &amp;amp; simplicity. After what I heard when I was in school regarding a quote, “SIMPLE LIVING, HIGH THINKING”, I have worked out two people MANMOHAN SINGH &amp;amp; ANNA HAZARE. Ironically they both stand against each other in this battle.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;For a person like me who has political &amp;amp; corporate linkages it is easy to understand to what level the anti – corruption movement is the need of the hour. Financial corruption in India has gone to such an extent that from buying a Pencil (where the shop keeper saves the Sales Tax by not giving the Bill) to Selling a Land (where for an amount of 1 Crore, Registry is done for 50 Lacs only for to evade Income &amp;amp; Wealth Tax) we all are CORRUPT. For do we have enough literacy about the aforesaid facts is still deeply questionable &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The biggest sources of corruption are not just REAL ESTATE or ELECTION FUNDINGS as presumed. If u see clearly from where does this unaccounted money starts is not from politicians but it is from us. We have made a case where there is no accounting or Bill being paid to us for when we are in Barber Shop, Vegetable vendor, Stationary market or even in some juice bar. Now here is from where it all starts. Govt as usual takes Income tax or Sales tax from these people. These people show there income much much below what they are having in reality. So that particular person has some unaccounted income. Now she/he can’t spend this money publicly for eyebrows will be raised on the same. So as per recent trend they take some real estate property in some other state on some other’s name and make it a Tax evading heaven. For Singapore &amp;amp; Switzerland are for Bigwigs, Real estate is for small &amp;amp; medium ones. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Now the question is why Real estate is a crusader of Black money? Have we ever realised that why the price of lands increase on a monthly basis without having any logic other than that Demand has increased? Have we ever thought the reason for why we are ready to buy a 6 Marla Plot for some 80 Lakh in Gurgaon and why the company is selling it at that exorbitant price? Have we ever given a thought that why HUDA/PUDA Draw schemes have a single person getting 7 – 8 Plots &amp;amp; some not even having it for last 20 years? Has there ever been an outcry why there is not a single Real Estate regulatory body in this country rather than having Gandhi names 7 schemes on Housing? No No No&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;apple-style-span&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;It is so because we ourselves are the real bunglers. We ourselves are buying &amp;amp; Investing Loads &amp;amp; Loads of money on buying real estate properties. We believe that it is a great source of income &amp;amp; rather than investing on share market lets invest there. Lets change the quote people ’CORRPUTION BEGINS AT HOME’ .&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;We vote for a MLA or MP who assures that Your son/ Daughter will be given a Sarkari Job, another biggest source of corruption. For becoming a sub inspector you need to pay Rs 10 – 15 Lakh and for some IAS/IIMs the fees is in Crores!!. Now if u are going to pay this hefty amt of money for a monthly salary of Rs 20,000 you need to become corrupt. So you start illegal activities, start bribing, you are not available for general public which in turn to get its work done have to again bribe you. This makes the whole public domain corrupt. Why nobody ever thinks that these Govt jobs should be made accountable and they should be under severe scrutiny? I guarantee if a strict amendment is done in this regard, it will solve scores of problems.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;We talk of Lokpal. Good I appreciate that but why Arvind Kejriwal doesn’t talks about CAG, CVC, ED, CBI, IT etc which are already there to do the same work which he wants Lokpal to do? Why he doesn’t introspects that what has lead to the failure of these institutions by and large? Blaming Govt is not a solution Mr Kejriwal. Today have you analysed that only due to a strong Supreme Court, a fearless CAG and a superfast CBI has made a strong case for you to start a Janlokpal movement. The simple observation is&amp;nbsp; - ‘As the King, so the State’. Giving sweeping powers to Lokpal doesn’t makes a case for a strong anti – corrupt institution. I just request you not to push bill fast for slow &amp;amp; steady wins the race. Lets discuss it comprehensively and make it super successful, we all are with you &amp;amp; Anna jee.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;‘Right to Recall’ is a good move but have we thinked a lot about it. If this thing is passed I think it will jeopardize the democracy. We have today peole from lower strata of society voting because they are being provided enough money &amp;amp; liquor at the time of elections. So if there is a right to recall it would be politically motivated and we will lose stability &amp;amp; growth. So why don’t have a ‘DUTY TO VOTE’ Instead. Make it compulsory for everybody to vote. Let country’s intellectuals, house wives, teachers, corporate, students VOTE. This will make a much much stronger democracy.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;As per electoral reforms are concerned lets go the US way and make it public funding. Going away with multi party system is such an impractical, unconstitutional, unpolitical solution which I think ceases to exist even in Nightmares. The biggest irony which about nobody thinks is that in our Constitution there is not even a single clause dictating the roles &amp;amp; responsibilities of MLA, MP? This is obnoxious that even after 62 years we are not being able to make a clause on the same and our main focus is on increasing their salaries &amp;amp; allocation under MLADS, MPADS ETC. Making public a stakeholder will definitely make a case for responsible MP, MLA. Let’s make the term of these offices for 3 years and have a citizen charter for the same. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Let’s do away with reservations Congress? With due respect to the founders of Constitution, our aim has never been solved. Our main motto has been to bring them foreword socially and reservation is not a solution at all. Why rather than tagging them SC, ST, OBC we provide them education free of cost or at minimal cost? We provide them Good Housing and food? I am quite sure that if we just fulfill the psychological needs of the people, there will be no dearth of jobs for them. Rather than improving our quality of education we are making them all corrupt by creating social injustice. Rather than giving subsidy to the farmers on Diesel, Electricity, and Loans etc why don’t open agricultural R&amp;amp;D centers? Why don’t let them export or import with easy guidelines? Reforms will start from the Ground not the sky!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;We are improving. The GST, UID, DMRC are some of the notable and remarkable signs that we want to become Brightest stars of the galaxy. Why can’t India be like Delhi Metro which is Honest, Punctual, Comfortable, and Affordable &amp;amp; is notably UN corruptible? They had envisaged a model which is from head to toe clean as Anna Hazare. Let’s have responsible people at the helms that can make us hope for a brighter India. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Media has a greater role to play. I was happy that Intellectual channels like CNN IBN, Time Now have shown great maturity in dealing with the issue of Jan Lokpal movement. But I want people to be more aware. There is a world beyond this media too. Let’s media be a partner in growth and not the champion. The champion has to be we the people of India.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;There are people like Irome Sharmila who have all their life fought for causes which are greater than life. But we never think of them. We never raise our voices against BCCI or IHF which are the real Tormentors of the nation sports and we tend to burn our agony on the Players. Why can’t we have transparency in UPSC, CBSE? Is it difficult for these institutions to give us the answer sheets back? Not at all but we had made it a habit for ourselves. This puts me in Dock to ask Are we Indians Genetically corrupt?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;The answer is NO. Acc to the studies of Respected Institutions like Transparency International, we are less corrupt than China, Australia &amp;amp; Japan. The only thing is that we have a vast potential. That is why we want us to be less corrupt so that we can strengthen our nation. We are still nascent but I believe that Youth has the power to change. Let’s support Anna by giving up financial corruption, let’s support him by protesting against atrocities, andlet’s support the great man by showing credibility &amp;amp; responsibility towards the country. The day is not far away when we all will be Proud to say ‘We are Indian’.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: lime; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Jai Hind. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;Apple-style-span&quot; style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;The answer is a big &lt;strong&gt;NO.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
We shall discuss about two of the biggest failures in the history of Indian retail – Subhiksha and Vishal Retail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img alt=&quot;subhiksha&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://cdn.trak.in/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/subhiksha.jpg&quot; style=&quot;border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; title=&quot;subhiksha&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;Subhiksha  was started by R. Subramaniam, an IIM A and IIT Chennai alumnus with  its first store at Chennai. Ram Chandra Aggarwal set up his Vishal  Garments Store in 1994 – three years before Biyani’s Pantaloon and seven  years before setting up Vishal Retail. Both of them are discount stores  at prices which are much lower than other retail outlets.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;Though, Subhiksha has closed down  and Vishal is still in the market, there are some points of similarity  in their fall from glory which I would like to mention here –&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Un-mindful expansion spree across different parts of the country&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;Subhiksha  didn’t realize that with this only a few stores would be profitable and  generate positive cash flows. It moved across different sectors such as  medicine, grocery, IT, mobile etc very fast.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;Vishal expanded  without having the proper capital. They got the orders from the  suppliers but when the stores didn’t work out, the entire supply chain  got choked.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IPO problem&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;Subhiksha was  thinking of going for an IPO in 2007 but shelved it in view of  “uncertain market conditions”. But I believe that they got greedy as  they expected a market correction.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;Vishal on the other hand raised  Rs 110 crore from an IPO in June 2007 which wasn’t enough to meet it  scorching growth pattern. It had 50 stores by then and was looking to  expand to 130 stores in a year. But it went for short term debt which  resulted in a big blow to their entire supply chain when the stores  didn’t happen as intended.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Both of them didn’t consolidate&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: lime;&quot;&gt;Subhiksha  and Vishal instead of stabilizing and consolidating themselves first in  different places and then moving to newer locations, tried to be the  first in every town.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Poor inventory management&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;Subhiksha  had a bad history of credit defaults and this led to supply breakages.  This led to situations where sometimes the store had very high inventory  and at others, the stocks were out. This led to great dissatisfaction.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;Vishal’s  distribution center led model failed as it couldn’t build an IT  network. Buying at warehouses was mostly not aligned to what the  customers needed and resulted in dead inventory.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Private Labels&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;Vishal tried to develop private labels in almost every category but had limited scale to support them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;Subhiksha  closed down in 2009 amid allegations of defaults, non – wages payments  and bankruptcy. The people behind it are still struggling to come up  with valid explanations.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;Vishal has brought down the rentals of  the properties, decreased its expenses and closed down two dozen stores  and warehouses and plans to close more. They still need an infusion of  about Rs 50 crore. Would the lenders give them?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;color: yellow;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

When the stakes are as high as million of dollars how can he be not ignited if his fav is not included to the fault of these Pakistani extremists.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ffcc00;&quot;&gt;As i always say i am an interested Political Economic student. One outlandish thing came to my mind - IS THERE ANY SOLUTION FOR KASHMIR ISSUE? well i think thumbs down to the person who says it. India says kashmir is theirs, Pakistan says Kashmir is theirs , Kashmeres in turn are divided and even some demand autonomy too!!! Foreign secy talks are on the anvil. I will be really poignant if this happens.Hats off to Chidambram for his exemplary dedication.He has really worked hard. Sena and MNS just believe in regional chauvinism. They just can be called Internal Terrorists. Pakistani people are not bad till they dont support terror. I criticize them only for selecting wrong people at the helm of the affairs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#006600;&quot;&gt;USA has a infuriating role to play. It is supporting Pak knowing that it is using aid against India.Obama has truly failed to deliver and it can be said that great speeches never make great admininstrators. f he wants he can stop terror to a large extent as he has did in afghanistan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#993399;&quot;&gt;There is a case of clear Vested interests in case of Sena politics. People should be made literate about the same and should be told to follow the nature of love and harmony rather rhan holding protests or candle walks. They are going to do nothing great as they have not yielded anything apart from media hype.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#cc0000;&quot;&gt;As my mentor Mukesh Ambani says &quot;India is not a land of billion problems but of billion oppurtunities&quot; .It is the youngistaans time to be more knowledgable about these scenarios and show maturity.We have two options - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009900;&quot;&gt;1 To follow the legacy of Gandhi, Nehru and make India a big one.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009900;&quot;&gt;2 Read this blog and say GOOD WORK and then close it to scrap friends at Orkut.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009900;&quot;&gt;Choice is yours.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009900;&quot;&gt;POLITICAL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009900;&quot;&gt;TREHAN&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shivamtrehan.blogspot.com/feeds/4570745562315837050/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/7472342909190213109/4570745562315837050' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7472342909190213109/posts/default/4570745562315837050'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7472342909190213109/posts/default/4570745562315837050'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shivamtrehan.blogspot.com/2010/02/political-vagueness.html' title='Political Vagueness'/><author><name>Shivam Trehan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00978400686312786331</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472342909190213109.post-1812274606940447522</id><published>2010-01-24T09:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-05T05:01:17.014-08:00</updated><title type='text'>MANAGEMENT GURU SHIVAM IMS WALE</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;IMS IS REALLY.........Well what is this?????????????

Ah well i have tried to understood some and really want to share with. There is usually a term coined OVERCONFIDENCE which is the same in lieu of person thinking that I had done best and what more............................This is childish because these people think in 6th class we have studied that GOOD less than better less than best..... so what next&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff9900;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                   They are absolutely correct till class 6th only but not after that b&#39;coz that is a nascent stage and u can&#39;t get it at that age. But people doing this repeatedly seems foolishness.All of this happened when i was thinking that why i personally and many people in the world are never satisfied, we always have great expectations from ourselves and others and we are lost in our world of never to be finished DREAMS. I was suffering from &lt;strong&gt;PMSOP......a very dangerous disease.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;color:#ff9900;&quot;&gt;                                          &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had felt a little demotivated and unhealthy from some time(&lt;strong&gt;symptoms of  this disease)&lt;/strong&gt; while oftenly thinking of the same but i am happy that i have found an answer. i am now feeling that fire of confidence  which i have lost for sometime. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff9900;&quot;&gt;                                                   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;     But like always a caution You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality. so have ur dreams after thinking ur potential and watching and taking all contigencies together. To me now OVERCONFIDENCE is something i like and  dont want to do and feel that yeah this is simple and i can do it. Now i want to try something which i think are simple but are MOST HORRIBLE things to do&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;color:#00cccc;&quot;&gt;Well i have discovered a vaccination for my &lt;strong&gt;PMSOP&lt;/strong&gt; and u should try it also.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Do, or do not. There is no &#39;try &lt;/u&gt;  &lt;/strong&gt;now i will try no no no no no no follow this vaccination and keep it with me evertime  and hope i see the miracles after all it has taken me much time to solve my PMSOP (&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;PEOPLE MADE SHIVAM OVERCONFIDENT PROBLEM&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;color:#00cccc;&quot;&gt;WELL REGARDS ALSO...........&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;color:#00cccc;&quot;&gt;STAY HEALTHY AND AWAY FROM THIS DISEASE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:georgia;color:#00cccc;&quot;&gt;Shivu&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shivamtrehan.blogspot.com/feeds/5367031756088154741/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/7472342909190213109/5367031756088154741' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7472342909190213109/posts/default/5367031756088154741'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7472342909190213109/posts/default/5367031756088154741'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shivamtrehan.blogspot.com/2009/07/if-man-does-his-best-what-else-is-there.html' title='&quot;If a man does his best, what else is there?&quot;'/><author><name>Shivam Trehan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00978400686312786331</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472342909190213109.post-3911998953448123826</id><published>2009-03-24T00:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-24T00:31:34.897-07:00</updated><title type='text'>FASCINATIONS ARE GOOD.....SOMETIMES</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;Well fantastic...what yes this is my first blog of 2009 and why it comes late.

Now i think that it is last day because &lt;strong&gt;EXAMS&lt;/strong&gt; have come finally and it is time to study(HaHaHaHa).....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#cc6600;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;INDIAN&lt;/strong&gt; team has been winning all above the crickerting things that are happening. some people may ask or even dare to think that&lt;strong&gt; INDIA&lt;/strong&gt; has finally become a &lt;strong&gt;KING CRICKET&lt;/strong&gt; B&#39;coz it is balle balle all over the way Dhoni has lead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#cc0000;&quot;&gt;But some Query time now............???????&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#cc0000;&quot;&gt;Some times back there was a news that both &lt;u&gt;Dhoni and Yuvraj&lt;/u&gt; had a crush on&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ffff66;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ffcc00;&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;Deepika Padukone&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;(Bechare Ranbeer ke mare&lt;/em&gt;) so obviously there has been a suspense. Times back when Dhoni became the Captain of the Indian Cricket team, Yuvraj in an International Magazine openly said that &quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;&lt;u&gt;He surely dreamt of Captaincy and it was misfortune of him that he was not rewarded for so&lt;/u&gt;&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then comes the &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;BOOM BOOM IPL. a REALLY EXCITING FORM THAT REALLY CHANGED THE AY CRICKET WAS SEEN&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span style=&quot;color:#33cc00;&quot;&gt;well it had been a good but &lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#33ff33;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ffcccc;&quot;&gt;srisanth-bhaji slap controversy&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;fumed it allllllll.(they also took part in a reality Dance show which also sparked indiffrences between the two).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#993300;&quot;&gt;A few days back Dhoni himself took hotshots at Selectors for Dropping &lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;Munaf for Irfan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;.well at least &lt;em&gt;selectors&lt;/em&gt; this time...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#999900;&quot;&gt;After Ganguly some think Dhoni will churn it all b&#39;coz of his cricketing record till date.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#33ff33;&quot;&gt;But i think a lot more is to come up yet&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#6666cc;&quot;&gt;Best of luck &lt;u&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DEAR&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/u&gt; dhoni&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shivamtrehan.blogspot.com/feeds/3057544185085726104/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/7472342909190213109/3057544185085726104' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7472342909190213109/posts/default/3057544185085726104'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7472342909190213109/posts/default/3057544185085726104'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shivamtrehan.blogspot.com/2008/11/indian-cricket-myteries.html' title='Indian Cricket myteries.....'/><author><name>Shivam Trehan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00978400686312786331</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7472342909190213109.post-7670861439747520554</id><published>2008-11-25T21:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-25T22:23:50.703-08:00</updated><title type='text'>PINNACLE 2009 Is CoMiNg</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnCYhr2C_dTS-Vt_tDeVDDYZPkM-BiYL8WFxxLmYIwz4T2f7XzRueTnrLSBh2fV-TtAMAPBF25IhMWzRfeB2nDXWBF9Buj5r9gUhGv0G87yXBE7gife8gfUGXJhle_Qm_eKpiUXOp_IdhM/s1600-h/pinnacle%20large%5B1%5D[1].jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272848007823690850&quot; style=&quot;FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 396px&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnCYhr2C_dTS-Vt_tDeVDDYZPkM-BiYL8WFxxLmYIwz4T2f7XzRueTnrLSBh2fV-TtAMAPBF25IhMWzRfeB2nDXWBF9Buj5r9gUhGv0G87yXBE7gife8gfUGXJhle_Qm_eKpiUXOp_IdhM/s400/pinnacle%2520large%255B1%255D%5B1%5D.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#009900;&quot;&gt;Well surprising haan...... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ffcc33;&quot;&gt;Well to me also it is the same.
