भारतीय रेल

Monday, April 22, 2013

भारतीय रेल----एक माध्यम जिसे आम आदमी अपनी ज़िन्दगी का अहम हिस्सा मानता है|भारतीय रेल हमारे दैनिक जीवन का एक अभिन्न अंग है,परन्तु जैसी आज कल की रेल व्यवस्था है उसे देखकर नहीं लगता की आम आदमी का विश्वास इस सबसे महत्वपूर्ण साधन में अधिक रहा है|मैं खुद रेलगाड़ी में ही सफ़र करता हूँ और अधिकतर Sleeper Class में,परन्तु वो दर्जा  जिसमे अधिकतम भारतीय सफ़र करते हैं,वो ही रेलवे विभाग के द्वारा सबसे ज्यादा अनदेखा किया हुआ है|रेलवे की pantry can ही नहीं अपितु हर जंक्शन/स्टेशन पर खड़े रहने वाले vendors भी कोई भी सामन उसके अधिकतम खुदरा मूल्य(MRP)पर नहीं देते हैं,पूछने पर कहते हैं की हम क्या कमाएंगे जबकि हमारी सरकार टेलीविज़न पर खूब प्रचार प्रसार करती है की MRP से ज्यादा में सामान बेचना गैर-कानूनी है|फिर रेलवे क्यूँ इसके दायरे में आती?कोई जवाब नहीं है.....शायद किसी के पास नहीं|एक आम माध्यमवर्गीय परिवार से सम्बन्ध रखने वाला आम आदमी इस बहस में पढ़कर अपना बहुमूल्य समय बर्बाद नहीं करना चाहता,उच्च मध्यमवर्गीय लोग - रुपयों के लिए किसी छोटे  आदमी के मुंह नहीं लगना चाहते और रेलवे मिनिस्टर गुणगान करते हैं अपने आदर्श रेलवे बजट के जो ना जाने कैसे आदर्श है|इसका उपाय यही हो सकता है की आम आदमी जाग जाए|हर चोर vendor की फोटो खींचकर मीडिया में दें,ऐसे चोरों से सामन खरीदना बंद करें,असहयोग आन्दोलन करें,अपने वोट का सही इस्तेमाल करें,इत्यादि-इत्यादि.....परन्तु क्या सच में ऐसा करने का दम है किसी आम आदमी में,मैंने कोशिश की थी,परन्तु मुझे और मेरी कोशिशों को किसी का सहयोग नहीं मिला और मैं अकेले ही चल पड़ा भ्रष्टाचार से लड़ने,परन्तु शायद जीत पाऊं.... अन्ना हजारे भी लड़ना चाहते थे भ्रष्टाचार से,परन्तु आश्वासन ही आश्वासन लेकर रह गए...फिर मैं अकेला क्या कर लूँगा....क्या कोई है जो साथ चलेगा या फिर यूँ ही बस कलम कागज़ लिए अपने विचारों को उतारता ही रह जाऊँगा....पता नहीं....

51 Ways Ordinary People Reached World-Class(By Robin Sharma)

Friday, April 12, 2013

  1. Know what you want. Clarity is power. And vague goals promote vague results.
  2. Remember that every problem has a solution. Maybe you just can’t see it. Yet.
  3. In this Age of Dramatic Distraction, the performer who focuses the best wins the most.
  4. Before someone will help you, you need to help them.
  5. Become the most passionate person you know. It’ll be contagious.
  6. Know more about your craft/the work you do than anyone who has ever done the work you do…in the history of the world.
  7. Join The 5 am Club. Your most valuable hours are 5am-8am. They have the least interruptions.
  8. Devote yourself to learning something new about your field of mastery every day. Success belongs to the relentless learners. Because as you know more, you can achieve more.
  9. Remember that when you transform your fitness, you’ll transform your business.
  10. Don’t check your mobile when you’re meeting with another person. It’s rude. And rude people don’t reach world-class.
  11. Every time you do what scares you, you take back the power that you gave to the thing that scared you. And so you become more powerful.
  12. A problem is only a problem if you make the choice to see it as a problem.
  13. Stop being a victim. Your business and personal life was made by you. No one else is responsible. To make it better, make better choices. And new decisions.
  14. You can lead without a title. Don’t wait to get a position to stand for excellence, peak quality and overdelivery on every expectation.

  17. Eat less food and you’ll get more done.
  18. As you become more successful, stay really really hungry. Nothing fails like success. Because when you’re successful, it’s easy to stop outlearning+outOverDelivering+outthinking and outexecuting everyone around you. (Success is Beautiful. And dangerous).
  19. If you’re not overprepared, you’re underprepared.
  20. The only level of great manners to play at is “Exceedingly Polite”. In our world, this alone will make you a standout. And differentiate you in your marketplace.
  21. Remember that the moment you think you’re a Master, you lose your Mastery. And the minute you think you know everything, you know nothing.
  22. To double your results, double your level of execution.
  23. Invest in your personal and pro development. All superstars do.
  24. Get this year’s best Targets of Opportunity down onto a 1 Page Plan. Then review it every morning while the rest of the world sleeps.
  25. You don’t get lucky. You create lucky.
  26. When you push through a difficult project, you don’t get to the other side. You reach The Next Level.
  27. Smile. And remember to inform your face.
  28. Spend time in solitude every day. Your best ideas live there.
  29. Debrief on how you lived out your day every night in a journal. This will not only record your personal history, it will make you uber-clear on what you’re doing right and what needs to be improved.
  30. If your not being criticized a lot, you’re not doing very much. Ridicule is the price of ambition.
  31. Develop a monomaniacal focus on just a few things. The secret to productivity is simplicity.

you didn't throw up."
