Meaning of 'EXCELLENCE' to have success in our 'LIFE'


A German once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God. Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised, he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two statues of the same idol?" "No," said the sculptor without looking up, "We need only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage." The gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage. "Where is the damage?" he asked. "There is a scratch on the nose of the idol." said the sculptor, still busy with his work. "Where are you going to install the idol?"

The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar twenty feet high. "If the idol is that far, who is going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?" the gentleman asked. The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said, "I will know it."
The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether someone else appreciates it or not.

"Excellence" is a drive from inside, not outside. Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction and efficiency

Three C's for Success- Convince,Confuse,Corrupt.: convince,confuse,corrupt.

Three C's for Success- Convince,Confuse,Corrupt.: convince,confuse,corrupt.: "“If you can’t convince them, confuse them“. I know everyone had heard this one liner quiet often from your manager/CEO's/Director......n s..."

convince,confuse,corrupt.

If you can’t convince them, confuse them“.


I know everyone had heard this one liner quiet often from your manager/CEO's/Director......n so on as the mantra for success.


But I should admit that this 'MANTRA' has become old.There is a new mantra of success:


"If you can’t convince them, confuse them;
 If you can’t confuse them, corrupt them".


Hahaha I Know it sounds funny ,But right now in this world this fits perfectly.


If we turn the pages of our Indian history this mantra was actually implemented by British.
During the fight for freedom Indians(we) were so adamant that we didn't listened to the British and went on a rage.
(British tried to 'convince').
When they couldn't convince,British 'Confused ' us saying they will grant freedom and ruled us for 200 years.
Finally when they couldn't confuse,they made us 'corrupt' by giving freedom finally.


See now the same mantra is been used by people all across India for finding success.
There is 3C circle in law practice itself and every lawyer uses it.


And nowadays even common man has learned to use this mantra.


For ex:
Technically it’s illegal to buy alcohol in Pondicherry and bring it in to Chennai or any other city. There are a dozen or so check points. But as the guys cheerfully pointed out, give the police a little bribe and they didn’t see anything. 


Now really isn't it great.


People feel that "If there was no Gandhi ,then we would have being in a 'Third world' ".
But the truth is is "If there was no British,we would have been surely a 'Third world' ".


We should pity on ourself b'coz we are getting used to this mantra so much that people are forgetting the convince & confuse part and are happy with the Corrupt part which is been reflected in every part of our life on way or the other.
