  1. A great note for all, to read it will take just 37 seconds and change your thinking. A Old one once again 4 u

    Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.

    One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon

    to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the

    room's only window.

    The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.

    The men talked for hours on end.

    They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs,

    their involvement in the military service, where they had been on

    vacation.

    Every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up,

    he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things

    he could see outside the window.

    The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods

    where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity

    and color of the world outside.

    The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.

    Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model

    boats.

    Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a

    fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.

    As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the

    man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine

    the picturesque scene.

    One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing

    by.

    Although the other man couldn't hear the band - he could see it. In

    his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with

    descriptive words. Days and weeks passed.

    One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths

    only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had

    died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the

    hospital attendants to take the body away.

    As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be

    moved next to the window.

    The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was

    comfortable, she left him alone.

    Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his

    first look at the real world outside.

    He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed.

    It faced a blank wall. The man asked the nurse what could have

    compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful

    things outside this window.

    The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the

    wall.

    She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

    Epilogue:

    "There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations"

    "Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled"

    "If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can't buy"

    "Today is a gift, that's why it is called the present."

  2. A must read.........inspirational to the core..take time in between the

    meetings to read this.....may be long , but worth reading.

    Intresting facts from Diary of Sudha w/o Narayana Murthy(Chairman Infosys Ltd.)

    **************************************************

    Initially, I would do my work with no interaction with the men. Then I

    learnt

    their language as half the battle is won when you can speak the adversary's

    language.They began letting me step into their space. My stint at the shop

    floor has been a boon because today I have a greater cross reference of

    mechanical industry than Murty. I worked in Jamshedpur and in Bihar too.

    WHEN NARAYAN MURTY PROPOSED TO ME HE SAID, SUDHA I WILL NEVER BE RICH IN MY

    LIFE. I CAN NEVER GIVE YOU THE RICHES THAT MONEY CAN BUY. WILL YOU MARRY

    ME? ..

    It was in Pune that I met Narayan Murty through my friend Prasanna who is

    now

    the Wipro chief, who was also training in Telco. Most of the books that

    Prasanna lent me had Murty's name on them Which meant that I had a

    preconceived image of the man. Contrary to expectation, Murty was shy,

    bespectacled and an introvert.When he invited us for dinner. I was a bit

    taken

    aback as I thought the young man was making a very fast move. I refused

    since

    I was the only girl in the group. But Murty was relentless and we all

    decided

    to meet for dinner the next day at 7.30 p.m at Green Fields hotel on the

    Main

    Road, Pune.

    The next day I went there at 7 o clock since I had to go to the tailor near

    the hotel. And what do I see? Mr Murty waiting in front of the hotel and it

    was

    only seven. Till today, Murty maintains that I had mentioned

    (consciously!) that I would be going to the tailor at 7 so that I could

    meet

    him. And I maintain that I did not say any such thing

    consciously or unconsciously because I did not think of Murty as anything

    other than a friend at that stage. We have agreed to disagree on this

    matter.

    Soon, we became friends. Our conversations were filled with Murty's

    experiences abroad and the books that he has read. My friends insisted that

    Murty was trying to impress me because he was interested in me. I kept

    denying

    it

    till one fine day, after dinner Murty said, I want to tell you something. I

    knew this was it. It was coming. He said, I am 5'4"

    tall. I come from a lower middle class family. I can never become rich in

    my

    life and I can never give you any riches. You are beautiful, bright,

    intelligent and you can get anyone you want. But will you marry me? I

    asked

    Murty to give me some time for an answer. My father didn't want me to

    marry a

    wannabe politician, (a communist at that) who didn't have a steady job and

    wanted to

    buildan Orphanage...

    When I went to Hubli I told my parents about Murty and his proposal. My

    mother

    was positive since Murty was also from karnataka, seemed intelligent and

    comes

    from a good family. But my father asked: What's his job, his salary, his

    qualifications etc? Murty was working as a research assistant and was

    earning

    less than me. He was willing to go dutch with me on our outings. My parents

    agreed to meet Murty in Pune on a particular day at 10 am sharp. Murty did

    not

    turn up. How can I trust a man to take care of my daughter if he cannot

    keep an

    appointment, asked my father. At 12 noon Murty turned up in a bright red

    shirt!

    He had gone on work to Bombay, was stuck in a traffic jam on the ghats, so

    he

    hired a taxi (though it was very expensive for him) to meet his would-be

    father-in-law. My father was unimpressed. My father asked him what he

    wanted to

    become in life. Murty

    said he wanted to become a politician in the communist party and wanted to

    open an orphanage. My father gave his verdict. No. I don't want my daughter

    to

    marry somebody who wants to become a communist and then open an orphanage

    when

    he himself

    didn't have money to support his family. Ironically, today, I have opened

    many

    orphanages something which Murty wanted to do 25

    years ago.

    By this time I realized I had developed a liking towards Murty which could

    only be termed as love. I wanted to marry Murty because he is an honest

    man. He

    proposed to me highlighting the negatives in his life. I promised my father

    that I will not marry Murty without his blessings though at the same time,

    I

    cannot marry anybody else. My father said he would agree if Murty promised

    to

    take up a steady job. But Murty refused saying he will not do things in

    life

    because somebody wanted him to. So, I

    was caught between the two most important people in my life.

    The stalemate continued for three years during which our courtship took us

    to

    every restaurant and cinema hall in Pune. In those days, Murty was always

    broke.Moreover, he didn't earn much to manage. Ironically today, he manages

    Infosys Technologies Ltd one of the world's most reputed companies. He

    always

    owed me money. We used to go for dinner and he would say, I don't have

    money

    with me, you pay my share, I will return it to you later. For three years I

    maintained a book on Murty's debt to me. No, he never returned the money

    and I

    finally tore it up after my wedding.The amount was a little over Rs 4000.

    During this interim period Murty quit his job as research assistant and

    started his own software business. Now, I had to pay his salary too!

    Towards

    the late 70s computers were entering India in a big way. During the fag

    end of

    1977 Murty decided to take up a job as General Manager at Patni Computers

    in

    Bombay. But before he joined the company he wanted to marry me since he

    was to

    go on training to the US after joining. My father gave in as he was happy

    Murty had a decent job,now. WE WERE MARRIED IN MURTY'S HOUSE IN BANGALORE

    ON

    FEBRUARY 10, 1978 WITH ONLY OUR TWO FAMILIES PRESENT. I GOT MY FIRST SILK

    SARI. THE WEDDING EXPENSES CAME TO ONLY RS 800 (US $ 17) WITH

    MURTY AND I POOLING IN RS 400 EACH.

    I went to the US with Murty after marriage. Murty encouraged me to see

    America

    on my own because I loved travelling. I toured America for three months on

    backpack and had interesting experiences which will remain fresh in my mind

    forever. Like the time when I was taken into custody by the New York police

    because they thought I was an Italian trafficking drugs in Harlem. Or the

    time

    when I spent the night at the bottom of the Grand Canyon with an old

    couple.

    Murty panicked because he couldn't get a response from my hotel room even

    at

    midnight. He thought I was either killed or kidnapped.

    IN 1981 MURTY WANTED TO START INFOSYS. HE HAD A VISION AND ZERO CAPITAL...

    initially I was very apprehensive about Murty getting into business. We did

    not

    have any business background. Moreover we were living a comfortable life in

    Bombay with a regular pay check and I didn't want to rock the boat. But

    Murty

    was passionate about creating good quality software. I decided to support

    him.

    Typical of Murty, he just had a dream and no money. So I gave him Rs 10,000

    which I had saved for a rainy day,without his knowledge and told him, This

    is

    all I have. Take it. I give you three years sabbatical leave. I will take

    care

    of the financial needs of our house. You go and chase your dreams without

    any

    worry.But you have only three years!.

    Murty and his six colleagues started Infosys in 1981, with enormous

    interest

    and hard work. In 1982 I left Telco and moved to Pune with Murty. We bought

    a

    small house on loan which also became the Infosys office. I was

    clerk-cum-cook-cum-programmer. I also took up a job as Senior Systems

    Analyst

    with Walchand group of Industries to support the house. In 1983 Infosys got

    their first client, MICO, in Bangalore.Murty moved to Bangalore and stayed

    with

    his mother while I went to Hubli to deliver my second child, Rohan.Ten days

    after my son was born,Murty left for the US on project work. I saw him only

    after a year as I was unable to join Murty in the US because my son had

    infantile eczema,an allergy to vaccinations. So for more than a ear I did

    not

    step outside our home for fear of my son contracting an infection. It was

    only

    after Rohan got all his vaccinations that I came to rented a small house in

    Jayanagar and rented another house as Infosys headquarters. My father

    presented

    Murty a scooter to commute.

    I once again became a cook, programmer, clerk, secretary, office assistant

    Nandan Nilekani (MD of Infosys) and his wife Rohini stayed with us. While

    Rohini baby sat my son, I wrote programmes for Infosys. There was no car,

    no

    phone, just two kids and a bunch of us working hard, juggling our lives

    and

    having fun while Infosys was taking shape.It was not only me but the wives

    of

    other partners too who gave their unstinted support. We all knew that our

    men

    were trying to build something good. It was like a big joint family,

    taking

    care and looking out for one another. I still remember Sudha palakrishna

    looking after my daughter Akshata with all care and love while Kumari

    Shibulal

    cooked for all of us. Murty made it very clear that it would either be me

    or

    him working at Infosys. Never the two of us together... I was involved

    with

    Infosys initially. Nandan Nilekani suggested I should be on the Board but

    Murty said he did not want a husband and wife team at Infosys. I was

    shocked

    since I had the relevant experience and technical qualifications. He said,

    Sudha if you want to work with Infosys, I will withdraw, happily. I was

    pained

    to know that I will not be involved in the company my husband was building

    and

    that I would have to give up a job that I am qualified to do and love

    doing.

    It took me a couple of days to grasp the reason behind Murty's request.

    I realised that to make Infosys a success one had to give one's 100

    percent.

    One had to be focussed on it alone with no other distractions. If the two

    of us

    had to give 100 percent to Infosys then what would happen to

    our home and our children? One of us had to take care of our home while the

    other took care of Infosys. I opted to be a homemaker, after all Infosys

    was

    Murty's dream. It was a big sacrifice but it was one that had to be made.

    Even

    today, Murty says, Sudha, I stepped on your career to make mine.You are

    responsible for my success. I might have given up my career for my

    husband's

    sake. But that does not make me a doormat... Many think that I have been

    made

    the sacrificial lamb at Narayan Murty's altar of success. A few women

    journalists have even accused me of setting a wrong example by giving up my

    dreams to make my husbands a reality. Isn't freedom about living your life

    the

    way you want it? What is right for one person might be wrong for another.

    It is

    up to the individual to make a choice that is effective in her life. I feel

    that when a woman gives up her right to choose for herself is when she

    crosses

    over from being an individual to adoormat. Murty's dreams ncompassed not

    only

    himself but a generation of people. It was about founding something

    worthy,

    exemplary and honorable. It was about creation and distribution of wealth.

    His

    dreams were grander than my career plans, in all aspects. So, when I had

    to

    choose between Murty's career and mine, I opted for what I thought was a

    right

    choice. We had a home and two little children. Measles, mumps, fractures,

    PTAmeetings, wants and needs of growing children do not care much for

    grandiose dreams. They just needed to be attended to. Somebody had to take

    care

    of it all. Somebody had to stay back to create a home base that would be

    fertile for healthy growth, happiness, and more dreams to dream.I became

    that

    somebody willingly.

    I can confidently say that if I had had a dream like Infosys, Murty would

    have

    given me his constant support.The roles would have been reversed.We are not

    bound by the archaic rules of marriage. I cook for him but I don't wait up

    to

    serve dinner like a traditional wife. So, he has no hassles about heating

    up

    the food and having his dinner.He does not intrude into my time especially

    when I am writing my novels. He does not interfere in my work at the

    Infosys

    Foundation and I don't interfere with the running of Infosys. I teach

    Computer

    Science to MBA and MCA students at Christ college for a few hours every

    week

    and I earn around Rs 50,000 a year. I value this financial independence

    greatly though there is no need for me to pursue a teaching career. Murty

    respects that. I travel all over the world without Murty because he hates

    travelling. We trust each other implicitly. We have another understanding

    too.

    While he earns the money, I spend it,mostly through the

    charity.Philanthropy

    is a profession and an art... The Infosys Foundation was born in 1997 with

    the

    sole objective of uplifting the less-privileged sections of society. IN THE

    PAST THREE YEARS WE HAVE BUILT HOSPITALS,ORPHANAGES, REHABILITATION

    CENTRES,

    SCHOOL BUILDINGS, SCIENCE CENTRES AND MORE THAN 3500 LIBRARIES. Our work

    is

    mainly in the rural areas amongst women and children. I am one of the

    trustees

    and our activities span six states including Karnataka, Tamil Nadu,

    Andhra,

    Orissa, Chandigarh and Maharashtra. I travel to around 800 villages

    constantly. Infosys Foundation has aminimal staff of three trustees and

    three

    office members. We all work very hard to achieve our goals and that is the

    reason why Infosys Foundation has a distinct identity. Every year we

    donate

    around Rs 5-6 crore (Rs 50 - 60 million). We run Infosys Foundation the

    way

    Murty runsInfosys in a professional and scientific way. Philanthropy is a

    profession and an art. It can be used or misused. We slowly want to

    increase

    the donations and we dream of a time when Infosys Foundation could donate

    large amounts of money. Every year we receive more than 10,000

    applications

    for donations. Everyday I receive more than 120 calls. Amongst these,

    there

    are those who genuinely need help and there are hood winkers too. I

    receive

    letters asking me to donate Rs five lakh to someone because five lakh is,

    like

    peanuts to Infosys. Some people write to us asking for free Infosys

    shares.

    Over the years I have learnt to differentiate the wheat from thechaff,

    though

    I still give a patient hearing to all the cases. Sometimes I feel I have

    lost

    the ability to trust people. I have become shrewder to avoid being conned.

    It

    saddens me to realise that even as a person is talking to me I try to

    analyse

    them: Has he come here for any donation? Why is he praising my work or

    enquiring about my health, does he want some money from me? Eight out of

    ten

    times I am right. They do want my money. But I feel bad for the other two

    whom

    I suspected. I think that is the price that I have to pay for the position

    that I am in now. The greatest difficulty in having money is teaching your

    children the value of it and trying to keep them on a straight line...

    Bringing up children in a moneyed atmosphere is a difficult task. EVEN

    TODAY I

    THINK TWICE IF I HAVE TO SPEND RS 10 ON AN AUTO WHEN I CAN WALK UP TO MY

    HOUSE. I cannot expect my children to do the same. They have seen money

    from

    the time they were born. But we can lead by example. When they see Murty

    wash

    his own plate after eating and clean the two toilets in the house everyday

    they realise that no work is demeaning irrespective of how rich you are. I

    DON'T HAVE A MAID AT HOME BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE NEED FOR ONE. When

    children

    see both parents working hard, living a simple life, most of the time they

    tend to follow. This doesn't mean we expect our children to live an

    austere

    life. My children buy what they want and go where they want but they have

    to

    follow certain rules. They will haveto show me a bill for whatever they

    buy.

    My daughter can buy five new outfits but she has to give away five old

    ones.

    My son can go out with his friends for lunch or dinner but if he wants to

    go

    to a five star hotel, we discourage it.Or we accompany him. So far my

    children

    haven't given me any heartbreak. They are good children. My eldest

    daughter is

    studying abroad,whereas my son is studying in Bangalore. They don't use

    their

    father's name in vain. If asked, they only say that his name is Murty and

    that

    he works for Infosys. They don't want to be recognised and I appreciated

    because of their father or me but for themselves.

    I DON'T FEEL GUILTY ABOUT HAVING MONEY FOR WE HAVE WORKED HARD FOR IT. BUT

    I

    DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE FLAUNTING IT ...IT IS A CONSCIOUS DECISION

    ON OUR PART TO LIVE A SIMPLE, SO-CALLED MIDDLE CLASS LIFE. WE LIVE IN THE

    SAME

    TWO-BEDROOM, SPARSELY FURNISHED HOUSE BEFORE INFOSYS BECAME A SUCCESS. Our

    only extravagance is buying books and CDs. MY

    HOUSE HAS NO LOCKERS FOR I HAVE NO JEWELS. I WEAR A STONE EARRING WHICH I

    BOUGHT IN BOMBAY FOR RS 100 I don't even wear my mangalsutra until I attend

    some family functions or I am with my mother-in-law. I am not fond of

    jewellery or saris. Five years ago, I went to Kashi where tradition

    demands

    that you give up something and I gave up shopping. Since then I haven't

    bought

    myself a sari or gone shopping. It is my friends who gift me with saris.

    Murty

    bought me a sari a long time ago. It was not to my taste and I told him to

    refrain from buying saris for me in the future. I am no good at selecting

    men's clothes either. It is my daughter who does the shopping for us. I

    still

    have the same sofa at home which my daughter wants to change. However, we

    have

    indulged ourselves with each one having their own music system and

    computer.I

    don't carry a purse and neither does Murty most of the time. I do tell

    him to

    keep some small change with him but he doesn't. I borrow money from my

    secretary or my driver if I need cash. They know my habit so they always

    carry

    extra cash with them. But I settle the accounts every evening. MURTY AND I

    ARE

    VERY COMFORTABLE WITH OUR LIFESTYLE AND WE DON'T SEE THE NEED TO CHANGE IT

    NOW

    THAT WE HAVE MONEY. Murty and I are two opposites that complement each

    other... Murty is sensitive and romantic in his own way.

    He always gifts me books addressed to From Me to You. Or to the person I

    most

    admire etc. We both love books. We are both complete opposites. I am an

    extrovert and he is an introvert. I love watching movies and listening to

    classical music. Murty loves listening to English classical music. I go

    out

    for movies with my students and secretary every other week. I am still

    young

    at heart. I really enjoyed watching "Kaho Na Pyaar Hai" and I am a Hrithik

    Roshan fan. It has been more than 20 years since Murty and I went for a

    movie.

    My daughter once gave us a surprise by booking tickets for "Titanic".

    Since I

    had a prior engagement that day, Murty went for the movie with his

    secretary

    Pandu.

    I love travelling hereas Murty loves spending time at home. Friends come

    and

    go with the share prices... Even in my dreams, I did not expect Infosys to

    grow

    like the way it has. I don't think even Murty envisioned this phenomenal

    success, at least not in 1981. After Infosys went public in 1993, we became

    what people would call as rich, moneyed people. I was shocked to see what

    was

    happening to Infosys and to us. Suddenly you see and hear about so much

    money.

    Your name and photo is splashed in the papers. People talk about you. It

    was

    all new to me. SUDDENLY I HAVE PEOPLE WALKING

    UP TO ME SAYING, OH, WE WERE SUCH GOOD FRIENDS, WE HAD A MEAL 25 YEARS AGO.

    THEY CLAIM TO HAVE BEEN PRESENT AT OUR WEDDING (WHICH IS AN UTTER LIE

    BECAUSE

    ONLY MY FAMILY WAS PRESENT AT MY WEDDING). I DON'T EVEN KNOW ALL THESE

    PEOPLE

    WHO CLAIM TO KNOW MURTY AND ME SO WELL. But that doesn't mean I don't have

    true friends. I do have genuine friends, a handful, who have been with me

    for

    a very long time. My equation with these people has not changed and vice

    versa. I am also very close to Narayan Murty's family, especially my

    sister-in-law KamalaMurty, a school teacher, who is more of a dear friend

    to

    me. I have discovered that these are the few relationships and friendships

    that don't fluctuate

    depending on the price of Infosys shares. Have I lost my identity as a

    woman,

    in Murty's shadow?... No. I might be Mrs Narayan Murty. I might be Akshata

    and

    Rohan's mother. I might be the trustee of Infosys Foundation. But I am

    still

    Sudha. I play different roles like all women. That doesn't mean we don't

    have

    our own identity. Women have that extra quality of adaptability and learn

    to

    fit into different shoes. But we are our own selves still. And we have to

    extract our reedom by making the right choices in our lives dictated by us

    and

    not by the world.

  3. Identity

    Have you ever noticed how the way you feel about yourself sometimes depends on whether or not you get confirmation of your value from others? When you enter into challenging situations with a positive self identity you will discover that you are living your life with a greater sense of enjoyment and fulfillment.

    I have learned a lot about nurturing a positive identity of love and appreciation from the man who taught me to train dogs. Dogs and humans both have a "self identity" that determines perception of the world, behavior, and one's sense of self worth. Let me explain how my teacher nurtured a positive self identity in the dogs he trained.

    Frank had a very fascinating way of helping the guard dogs he trained, to feel respected, protected and loved, regardless of the situation/context they were in. Here is how he accomplished this. First of course, he started out by treating his dogs with love and respect, and by showing them an infinite amount of patience as they were learning. This of course is crucial.

    Then, the next thing he did was a true stroke of genius. He would cut a small piece of carpet for each dog he trained. He would place the carpet in the dog's sleeping area, for him to lay on each night. He would also take this carpet during the day and set it down in various locations, and sit the dog on the carpet, as he praised the dog for being good. Whenever he moved to a new location, he would have the dog stand up, and he would pick up the carpet and carry it to the new location, set it down, sit the dog down, and again, praise the dog for being a "good boy." Soon the piece of carpet took on the distinct odor of the dog, and Frank said that this led the dog to feel "at home" when sitting on the carpet.

    Next, Frank would teach the dog to pick up the piece of carpet himself, and carry it to wherever they were going. The dog would then set the piece of carpet down when they stopped, and sit on top of it, with Frank all of the time praising him for being a good dog. Now Frank said, "The dog begins to feel that he truly belongs in every place that he travels to, and no matter where he goes, he receives my love and appreciation. Soon the dog takes on this love and appreciation as the primary core of his identity."

    And I ask you now, if this strategy works so brilliantly with dogs, would the same basic strategy not work just as well with human beings? Ask youself, "What is the small piece of carpet you carry around with you wherever you go?" "Would your life not be very different if you changed your piece of carpet to one of self love and appreciation?"

    Dont Let other tell u what u want from Life Decide it URself Man. Be a man of Action.

  4. Dream Big

    If there were ever a time to dare,

    to make a difference,

    to embark on something worth doing,

    it is now.

    Not for any grand cause, necessarily-

    but for something that tugs at your heart,

    something that's your aspiration,

    something that's your dream.

    You owe it to yourself

    to make your days here count.

    Have fun.

    Dig Deep.

    Stretch.

    Dream big.

    Know, though, that things worth doing

    seldom come easy.

    There will be good days.

    There will be times when you want to turn around,

    pack it up,

    and call it quits.

    those times tell you

    that you are pushing yourself,

    that you are not afraid to learn by trying.

    Persist.

    Because with an idea,

    determination,

    and the right tools,

    you can do great things.

    Let your instincts,

    your intellect,

    and your heart

    guide you.

    Trust.

    Believe in the incredible power of the human mind.

    Of doing something that makes a difference.

    Of working hard.

    Of laughing and hoping.

    Of lazy afternoons.

    Of lasting friends.

    Of all the things that will cross your path this year.

    The start of something new

    brings the hope of something great.

    Anything is possible.

    There is only one you.

    And you will pass this way only once.

    Do it right.

  6. Some lessons to learn from ordinary people like us but have suceeded to be successful with determination.

    Success Stories

    In 1962, four nervous young musicians played their

    first record audition for the executives of the Decca recording Company. The executives were not impressed. While turning down this group of musicians, one executive said, "We don't like their

    sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out."

    The group was called The Beatles.

    ======================================================

    In 1944, Emmeline Snively, director of the Blue Book Modeling Agency told modeling hopeful Norma Jean Baker, "You'd better learn secretarial work or else get married.

    She went on and became Marilyn Monroe.

    ======================================================

    In 1954, Jimmy Denny, manager of the Grand Ole

    Opry,Fired a singer after one performance. He told him, "You ain't goin'nowhere....son. You ought to go back to drivin' a truck."

    He went on to become Elvis Presley.

    ======================================================

    When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it did not ring off the hook with calls from potential backers. After making a demonstration call, President Rutherford Hayes said, "That's an amazing invention, but who would ever want to see one of them?"

    ======================================================

    When Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, he tried over 2000 experiments before he got it to work. A young reporter asked him how it felt to fail so many times. He said, "I never failed once. I invented the light bulb. It just happened to be a 2000-step process."

    ======================================================

    In the 1940s, another young inventor named Chester Carlson took his idea to 20 Corporations, including some of the biggest in the country. They all turned him down. In 1947 after seven long years of rejections! He finally got a tiny company in

    Rochester, New York, the Haloid company, to

    purchase the rights to his invention -- an electrostatic paper-copying process.

    Haloid became Xerox Corporation.

    ======================================================

    A little girl - the 20th of 22 children, was born prematurely and her survival was doubtful. When she was 4 years old, she contracted double pneumonia and scarlet fever, which left her with a paralyzed left leg. At age 9, she removed the metal leg brace she had been dependent on and began to walk without it. By 13 she had developed a rhythmic walk, which doctors said was a miracle.

    That same year she decided to become a runner. She entered a race and came in last. For the next few years every race she entered, she came in last. Everyone told her to quit, but she kept on running.

    One day she actually won a race. And then another. From then on she won every race she entered.

    Eventually this little girl - Wilma Rudolph, went on to win three Olympic gold medals.

    =======================================================

    A school teacher scolded a boy for not paying attention to his mathematics and for not being able to solve simple problems. She told him that you would not become anybody in life.

    The boy went on to become Albert Einstein.

    A candidate for a news broadcasters post was rejected by officials since his Voice was not fit for a news broadcaster.

    He was also told that with his obnoxiously long name, he would never be famous.

    He is Amitabh Bachchan.

    =======================================================

    A small boy - the fifth amongst seven siblings of a

    poor father, was selling newspapers in a small village to earn his living. He was not exceptionally smart at school but was fascinated by religion and rockets.

    The first rocket he built crashed. A missile that he built crashed multiple times and he was made a butt of ridicule. He is the person to have scripted the Space Odyssey of India single-handedly

    He is Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam.

    ======================================================

  7. At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated: "If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving twenty-five dollar cars that got 1000 miles to the gallon."

    In response to Bill's comments, General Motors issued a press release stating (by Mr Welch himself):

    If GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we would all be driving cars with the following characteristics:

    1. For no reason whatsoever your car would crash twice a day.

    2. Every time they repainted the lines on the road you would have tobuy a new car.

    3. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason, andyou would just accept this, restart and drive on.

    4. Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn, would cause your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which case you would have to reinstall the engine.

    5. Only one person at a time could use the car, unless you bought "Car95" or "CarNT." But then you would have to buy more seats.

    6. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, reliable, five times as fast, and twice as easy to drive, but would only run on five per cent of the roads.

    7. The oil, water temperature and alternator warning lights would be replaced by a single "general car default" warning light.

    8. New seats would force everyone to have the same size butt.

    9. The airbag system would say "Are you sure?" before going off.

    10. Occasionally for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door handle, turned the key, and grab hold of the radio antenna.

    11. GM would require all car buyers to also purchase a deluxe set of Rand McNally road maps (now a GM subsidiary), even though they neither need them nor want them. Attempting to delete this option would immediately cause the car's performance to diminish by 50% or more. Moreover, GM would become a target for investigation by the Justice Department.

    12. Every time GM introduced a new model car buyers would have to learn how to drive all over again because none of the controls would operate in the same manner as the old car.

    13. You'd press the "start" button to shut off the engine.

  8. Nokia Secrets

    This Codes Are For Nokia Phones Only

    - Show IMEI Code

    If you want to know what's the IMEI code of your phone, press:

    *#06#

    - Sim Lock Information

    To check if the Sim-Clock can be stopped type:

    *#746025625#

    - Software Version

    This code shows you software version, date of manufacture and hardware model number of your phone.

    * # 0000 #

    - Show Service Menu

    To get additional information from your phone you can use the so called "warranty codes", try typing:

    *#92702689#

    You'll get the following

    serial number

    manufactured date

    date of purchase (if entered)

    date of the last repair transfer user data (It may wok and it may not)

    - Service Provider Lock

    The Service provider (SP) lock is used to lock the cell phone to the SP's SIM card. Once the cell phone is locked to a specific operator, if one inserts a SI M card from a different operator the phone will refuse to accept it! The cell phone will however accept another SIM card from the same operator. All Nokia phones (2110 and newer) have four different SIM locks which can be used to lock the phone for upto 4 different providers. But most phones with restriction only have one lock activated. ( lock 1)

    The main code used in Nokia phones is:

    #pw+(master code)+Y# This code is able to check, activate or remove Sim card restriction (SP-lock).

    Use the * key to get the p, + and w characters.

    'Y' has to be 1,2,3 or 4 - depending of what lock you what to deal with

    #pw+1234567890+1# for Provider-Lock status

    #pw+1234567890+2# for Network-Lock status

    #pw+1234567890+3# for Provider(???)-Lock status

    #pw+1234567890+4# for SimCard-Lock status (master code) is a 10 digit code, based on the phones IMEI number. (I can NOT give you the master c ode - SO DON'T ASK US FOR IT !!!!!!!)

    e.g. To remove restriction on lock 1 type following code: #pw+(master code)+1

    If you just want to check your phone use 10 random numbers Eg. 1234567890 as the (master code) eg. To check if phone if restricted on lock 1 type the following code: #pw+1234567890+1#

    To get "p" - Press "*" three times

    To get "w" - Press "*" four times

    To get "+" - Press "*" two times

    Enhanced Full Rate Codec (EFR):

    On: Enter *3370# and EFR will be activated after a reboot of the phone

    ( consumes more power )

    Off: Enter #3370# and EFR will be switched off after a reboot of the phone.

    Half Rate Codec:

    This function is NOT available on 8810

    Enhanced Full Rate will give you much better sound quality when you enable it. The new Enhanced Full Rate CODEC adopted by GSM uses the ASELP (AlgebraicCode Excitati on Linear Prediction) compression technology.This technology allows for much great voice quality in the same number of bits as the older Full Rate CODEC. The older technology was called LPC-RPE (Linear Prediction Coding with Regular Pulse Excitation). Both operate at 13 kilobits. (but you take up more space on thenetwork, so they can charge you more) - Talk-time is reduced with about 5% Half Rate will give you bad soundquality, which gives the serviceprovider the to have more calls on the network, and you might get a lower charge from them. - Will give you 30% longer talk-time
