An Englishman asks you what you know. An American asks you what’s in your wallet. An Indian asks you what’s your family history. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate More Quotes by Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate More Quotes From Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Often I come across the public displays of charitable acts and donations on social media, which reminds me of the teaching from Holy Book: “Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.“ In my view, it's an act of hypocracy to blow one's trumpet on FB or Twitter or like social media about one's charitable act, with ulterior motives of self-promotion and gaining praise from others. In my view, the true philanthropist, who is selfless at heart, does not let her/his left hand know what the right hand is doing - so that the noble act of giving remains absolutely secret. I really respect such selfless philanthropists. Long live the spirit of Charity that flows from a pure heart with Honesty and Integrity. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate The Best way to better yourself is to be in the company of the Best who are better than you. You mustn't feel intimidated by the people who are better than you. Instead, you should welcome them in your life and be their student, as soon as practical. Life is very short, but it's also a learning process involving continuous improvement. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Vatertag ist die besondere Zeit zu ehren und zu feiern Vaterfigur in Ihrem Leben und in Dankbarkeit zu schätzen, was Sie vom Vater empfangen haben. Mut, Disziplin und Stärke sind die Geschenke vom Vater. Aus meiner Sicht muss jeder Vater in ihr / sein Leben, und ich bin sicher, dass jeder von Gottes Gnade findet man. wie Friedrich Nietzsche sagte einmal: "., wenn man nicht einen guten Vater hatte, muss man eine zu erstellen" genießen Sie den Vatertag! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate What I am going to say may appear narcissistic, but it's true. If you want to see a miracle, all you have to do is just look in the mirror, and you will see the greatest miracle in this world: The Human Body, the amazingly wondrous creation of Supreme Power, in my view. The process of creation of human body begins with the union of sperm and ovum in the womb of a woman. It's just a beginning of the greatest miracle, because almost immediately begins the creation of thousands of millions of body cells, which in fact build the most complicated tissues, complex organs, and exceptionally intricate systems of the human body. Interestingly there are about one octillion cells in adult human body, which can be written as 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. And now comes the astounding fact: all these one thousand trillion trillion cells are created by only fifty consecutive replications of just one cell. Wow! That's what I consider miracle, created by none other than Supreme Power! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate You mustn't get dismayed or disturbed by envious people around you, but rather be happy that you're envied. It's better to be envied than to be ignored. In my view, you must be doing well if you're envied, because nobody ever envies a loser. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Ausgezeichneten Unterricht auf situative Führung in einem Hollywood-Film "Twelve O'Clock High" von 1949 angeboten, mit Gregory Peck. Inm diesem Film, ein tough-minded allgemein (Gregory Peck) übernimmt eine Bombereinheit mit niedriger Moral, und wandelt diese Einheit in eine Star-Team mit herausragenden Leistung.

Ein wahrer Führer schafft und pflegt viele Next-Generation-Führer; Die Lektion, die ich gelernt und immer erfolgreich als engagierter Führer gefolgt. Dank 'Twelve O'Clock High' für eine solche wunderbare Lektionen in Führung. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Human life is often likened to a Rose Garden. It makes perfect sense to me. As we walk through the garden, we are always refreshed and rejuvenated by the breeze that carries amazingly capturing exquisite fragrance of beautiful flowers all around. Life seems so wonderful at that very moment. And on some occasions, a sight of dried plants, with dry petals lying around, plucked dead flowers and heaps of dead leaves all around sadden us a lot. A cold brutal breeze makes us shiver with the shocking dark reality check. Life can be so amazing and beautiful, and yet can be so cold and cruel sometimes....just like a Rose Garden. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate In the journey of life, you'll always meet some people who will try to bring you down, tell bad things about you behind your back, humiliate or insult you in public, and make you feel small. Do not let them win, at any cost. Illegitimi non carborundum. Think of those mean and rude people as the sand paper that may scratch you, but at the end you'll come out smooth, polished and shining. And guess what? Those mean and rude people will just get worn out, dirtier, filthier and uglier than they were before criticizing you. You're the wonderful Winner who takes it all, and they're the lousy Losers standing small. You will be the one to laugh last and the longest. Cheer up, my friend. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Interestingly, it's the imperfection that makes things beautiful, even though this viewpoint may seem labyrinthine. Absolute perfection is often unattainable in reality, and yet so many imperfect things can be breathtakingly beautiful. So it must be that either the Perfection is overrated, or that our Imperfections must be making us so unique - and hence most beautiful. I like what Marilyn Monroe said decades ago: "Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius, and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring." So, go ahead and celebrate your differentiating differentness - including the imperfections that make you so beautiful. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Many people misconstrue confidence with arrogance and vice versa, although the two are truly distinct and quite different IMHO. Confident person knows that no one is above him/her, and treats everyone with equality. Arrogant person believes that everyone is below her/him, and doesn't treat others with equality, respect and dignity. And that's what differentiates Confidence from Arrogance! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Never give up when you strongly believe in something, or deeply love someone, regardless of how adverse it gets and how low you feel at times. Never give up Hope, because the lowest ebb is often the sure sign of tide turning favorably. So, hold on to your Dreams, Beliefs, Values, Love and especially Hope - always! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Accipiendo ignorantiam tuam pertineat primum gradum ad scientiam. Ad cognoscendam viam ducere in tenebris lux tua illuminatione. Limitibus ob rem considera et voluntate tibi, ut bene pugnans. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate According to Shakespeare, Love is blind. But it may not be the whole truth. It's possible that Love may turn a blind eye, knowingly and intentionally, to the follies and flaws that are otherwise also so harmless. In my view, only Love enables you to see the truth, and it's only Love that empowers you to find your way in the dark. So with all respect to Shakespeare, I must say that Love is not blind, most definitely and positively! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Change is always inevitable, because nothing stays still forever. You can't stop the Change, but you can surely do your best to manage it most effectively. When you can't stop the rising waves, you must strive to be the best at surfing. You'll then enjoy riding the waves, instead of being drowned by them. The same strategy applies to riding the waves of challenges, especially when the tides get high in the ocean of life. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Destiny doesn't stay in the stars, but she lives within our characters IMO. Our characters are governed by our actions, while our actions are driven by our thoughts. So ultimately it's our thoughts that truly control our Destiny. Who we're today, and who we'll become tomorrow is thus purely directed by our thought process. Hence, thinking positively becomes the key to awesome "Now" and amazing "Tomorrow". Destiny is never a matter of chance, but a matter of choice that we make every moment. So, think positively - always! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate The More the Merrier! Learn more than the world expects you to. Treat people with more respect than they themselves hope to. Risk more than you think you possibly can. Dream more than even your wildest dreams. Expand your skills beyond your normal limitations. Magnify your Life with More and More - because "The More the Merrier" is not a Cliché, but a Solution to Self-improvement, and a Mantra to Meliorism in real world IMHO. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Today is a new day. It's about to dawn and unfold the yet unknown. Yesterday is history today, and Tomorrow will remain only an illusion. So look forward to Today that has the tremendous power. It is presented to you by the Supreme Power - the reason we call it "Present". Cheers! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Truth is the purest and most beautiful thing in the world. It's the way it gets manipulated makes the truth seem adulterated and not so beautiful. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Alla goda ting i livet kommer till dig, som våra Svenska vänner säger, om du: frukta mindre, hoppas mer; gnälla mindre, andas mer; prata mindre, säg mer; hata mindre, älska mer. Och alla goda ting är ditt! Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate Always be true to yourself, committed to your dreams, in sync with your passions, and sincere with your values. Never dilute any of those with the expectations from others that you don't agree with. The moment you make compromises, you'll lose your identity, your character, and most importantly, your purpose in life....you may continue to exist but only physically, from that moment onwards.
