Importance of Quality Over Quantity
“The
good leaders do the best thing in the prevailing situation whereas the great
leaders do the right thing in any situation irrespective of the effects and
outcomes.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
Recently
one of my friends from the USA removed unwanted connections from her social
media platforms. She informed me that she emphasized quality over quantity. I
appreciated her decision.
Have
a few friends but great friends. I preferred books to friends in my childhood. After
I joined the Indian Air Force when I was 18 years old, I have a couple of
friends who are reliable and dependable. I enjoyed their company. I am still in
contact with them.
How
well you live matters, not how long you live matters. Leaders like Alexander
the Great and Adi Shankaracharya lived for a short period. Abraham Lincoln once
remarked, “In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count, It’s the
life in your years.”
Emphasize
excellence, not perfection. Activity is not an achievement. Execute your tasks with
excellence. Avoid multitasking. Undertake one task, execute it effectively, and
then move on to your next task.
Takeaway:
Emphasize quality over quantity. Quality of life matters, not the quantity of
life.

Life Is Too Short
“Life
is meant for learning, enjoying, and growing, not for litigating.” ―Professor
M.S. Rao
The
average lifespan of a human being is 70 years. Unfortunately, we waste our
precious time on unwanted things. Research shows that people waste 30 percent
of their time thinking about their unpleasant past that cannot be changed. They
think about the future that cannot be predicted. They must learn to live in the
present.
I am 57 years old. I think about how fast life has passed. I have no regrets because I utilized my time productively and wisely on learning, leadership, and sharing my knowledge freely with the world.
Don't
spend your time complaining and criticizing others. Don’t blame the people
around. Use your precious time and energies to add value to others. Serve
others with your kind heart. Make others feel important. Appreciate good
things. Make people around you happy. Some people bring happiness wherever they
go whereas some people bring happiness whenever they go. Let people appreciate
your presence. Let them feel your absence. Life is great indeed!
Decide
to be happy. Enjoy the little things. Enjoy traveling because traveling teaches
you to be tolerant and empathize with others. Traveling is the best teacher.
Takeaway:
You won’t get back to your past. Live happily every day productively.
Life
is too short. Make it sweet.

Are Entrepreneurs Crazy?
“Overnight
success is an exception, not a rule. Successful people planted seeds, watered
the seeds, and saw the seeds growing into plants and trees. Therefore, make the
right choices every day. Stay on your game. Keep going for your dreams.”
―Professor M.S. Rao
Entrepreneurs
have an urge to succeed. They have the drive and ambition. They strongly
believe in their dreams. They don't listen to naysayers. They are often treated
as crazy. The entrepreneurs including Elon Musk and Jack Ma succeeded against
all odds. They succeeded because they are crazy. Critics often think that they
are stupid. Critics are the ordinary people while the entrepreneurs are the
extraordinary people. Entrepreneurs treat crazy as a compliment, not as a criticism.
They pursue their ideas when there seemed to be no light at the end of the
tunnel. They convert their vision into a reality. They hustle every day. People
often don’t see their hard work. They see only their success.
Entrepreneurs
don’t look for excuses. They explore ideas for resolving issues. Therefore, be
well-rounded and be well-grounded to become a successful entrepreneur. Don’t
lose faith. Remember, entrepreneurship is for the brave-hearted, not for the
fainthearted.

Experiment Your Ideas like Elon Musk to Excel as an Entrepreneur
“Failures
and rejections are an integral part of life. I failed many times. I fail every
day. Yet, I explore new things because I enjoy the process of exploring and
experimenting. I was rejected many times. For instance, Harvard University has
rejected my application for a postdoctoral course in the year 2016. Therefore,
learn lessons from your failures. Never give up.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
I
have seen a few entrepreneurs challenging the established giants with an idea
and technology. They are leveraging technology to achieve success and make a
difference in the lives of others.
Entrepreneurs
must explore ideas and test them. They must learn lessons from failures and
move on with valuable takeaways. When you look at Elon Musk, his entrepreneurial
journey is not straight. His entrepreneurial graph is less of peaks and more of
valleys. His first three launches failed, but he learned lessons and moved on. Currently,
he is the richest person in the world.
Anything
can change at any time. You must have an idea, take risks, experiment, and
explore. Above all, be persistent.
Takeaway:
Be a risk-taker. Don't fear failures. Be persistent.
“Persistence
is very important. You should not give up unless you are forced to give up.”
—Elon Musk
