Chrysalis and cheers

Give desired value at the right time

'It only takes an ounce of courage to remove a ton of tension and fear' - Dr. V. V. Rao

We go into every interaction with the intention to being interested in everyone and to walk away learning something new. In every person, there is some variety of butterflies preparing to fly for that we always need to wear our heart on our sleeves. Hitler was supreme commander, also made himself commander of the German army since the end of 1941. Later spent most of his time acting as commander of the eastern front, obviously neglecting his other roles. Churchill and Stalin replaced Generals with other Generals, but Hitler, considering he himself a military genius, decided to do a General's job by himself. He also dismissed some of his best Generals mostly because they argued with him. Only in July 1944, when losing in all fronts, he appointed the formerly dismissed General Guderian, one of Germany's greatest military talents as commander of the army, yet he ignored his commander’s good suggestion with obvious consequences.

"People don't plan to fail they just fail to plan" - most desired quality for any minute success also.

Learning is a lifelong process - we are all teachers as well as students, one to another. Consider Mahatma Gandhi, who refused to be seduced by power and fame. Rather, he always saw himself as a servant of his followers. He was a spokesman driven by love and compassion for his people, refusing to change his appearance or dress and preferred to identify himself with the people he loved.
