My Indian Air Force Journey| Documentaries | Storytelling | Military Leadership | Inspiration | Professor M.S. Rao
“If someone
asks me a question, ‘What is it you see when you look out the window that is
visible but not yet seen by others’ I will answer, ‘I see a world filled with
people with a huge potential lying untapped. If I can identify their strengths
and inspire them to unlock their potential, I feel that I have made a
difference in the world.’” —Professor M.S. Rao
Dear veterans of the Army, Navy, and
Air Force,

Force. Jai Hind.

The Power of Self-Education!
"Formal
education will make you a living; Self-education will make you a fortune"
―Jim Rohn
Some of the
achievers including Bill Gates, Elon Musk, and Mark Zuckerburg are college
dropouts. They achieved amazing success through informal and self-education.
Although formal education is important, the importance of informal education
cannot be underestimated.
When I was
18 years old I dropped out of college and joined the Indian Air Force to
support my parents financially. I continued my journey of education in the
military and acquired six qualifications―DME, BSc, MA, MBA, PGDCLL, and PGDBM. I
am a self-learner and self-taught. I am an autodidact. I used to go far distant
places to acquire knowledge in my initial days. It was very painful to go distant
places by bicycle to acquire knowledge. After the advent of the internet,
things have become easier for me. Now there are plenty of opportunities for
many people to learn online for free. If you are passionate you can learn and
update yourself regularly. Life is all about learning, unlearning, and
relearning. When my colleagues were enjoying their weekends and holidays in the
Indian Air Force I worked hard to acquire education. My life is full of
struggles, sufferings, and sacrifices.
Conclusion
Elon Musk
encourages self-learning rather than formal learning. Technology has made
education accessible to all. There are many opportunities for learners and
especially self-learners. To conclude, leverage technology to become a lifelong
learner.
"You're
only educated when you've understood how ignorant you are" ―Socrates

If Today Were The Last Day Of My Life
“If you live
each day as it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right” ―Steve
Jobs
Our lifespan
is fixed. Nobody knows when will be the last day and when will be the last
moment of our life. If today were the last day of your life, what would you do?
What would you do differently?
You would unlock
your potential when you realize that today were the last day of your life. You
respect the time and the people around you. You would value them. You would do
what is important to you. You would express your gratitude. You would love the
people around you. You would love your neighbors. You would not settle for
less. You would do your best. You would add value to others and make a
difference in their lives. You would live each moment of your day.
If today
were the last day of my life, I would do as follows. I spend my time with my
wife for her love and support. I thank students for their love and support. I
thank God for blessing me with a life full of challenges. I led many lives in
one life. I was born in a village and grew up in a toxic environment. I was a
soldier in the Indian Air Force. I was an entrepreneur. I was an educator and
professor. I am an author and speaker. Therefore, I thank God for granting me
many lives in one life.
I phone my
best friends for their support. I thank my toxic parents and siblings for the
lessons they taught me. I thank my rogue relatives for their betrayal. I post
an interesting article on my blog, upload an inspiring video, thank my friends,
fans, and followers and say goodbye to them. Life is great.
Takeaway: Treat each
moment as the last moment in your life. Treat every day as the last day to
unlock your hidden potential and make a difference in the lives of others.
“Live every
day as the last day of your life.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

To Aspire Is Human; To Be Blessed Is Divine
“You must
work your ass off to achieve success in your life. If success comes instantly,
it goes away instantly. Achieve success in such a way that you sustain and grow
steadily to add value to others. The world needs that special gift you only
have.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
I have a
friend who is in the film industry. He is handsome with an amazing screen
presence. He is struggling in the industry for the last 15 years to establish
himself. Adding fuel to the fire, coronavirus has thrown his career out of
gear. He is in a deep financial mess. He is caught between his aspirations and
challenges. I advised him to face challenges head-on and explore other
opportunities in the film industry with the changing times and technologies. I
advised him about OTT platforms, web series, and crowdfunding.
When you
look at most achievers, their main aim is not wealth but to earn name and fame.
Whether they are entrepreneurs, leaders, generals, or politicians, they want to
stand out from others for their contributions and achievements. So let us
understand and appreciate the importance of ambition. Ambition must help people
serve others and add value. It must make a difference in the lives of others.
Ambition is
a state of mind and a way of life. It is a disciplined approach and an eager
desire for achievement. It is the reflection of the unconscious human. It is
the hallmark of the human spirit. It took ordinary individuals to extraordinary
heights. People worked hard to prove themselves. They stretched beyond their
limits to leave their marks and get noticed.
Many people
go to their graveyard with their potential lying untapped. Don't go in that
way. Treat challenges as opportunities, not threats. Unlock your potential to
add value to others and make it big in your life. Leave your legacy to your
next generations.
Challenges
are an important part of our life. They lead to growth. They force to think in
multiple ways to come out of the challenges. They unlock hidden potential. So,
look at the door that is opened, not the door that is closed.
Takeaway: Ambition is
an integral part of your life. Take charge of your life, unlock your potential
to add value to others, and make a difference in the world.
“To aspire
is human; to be blessed is divine.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

Einstein's Unique Way Of Thinking Contributed To His Genius
“Be
passionate, persistent, and patient. There is nothing like an overnight
success. Work hard, wise, and smart to stand out from others. I failed many
times in my life. I fail every day. But I don't have any regrets because I
learn lessons and move on with valuable takeaways.” ―Professor M.S. Rao
Some people
are non-conformists and create history. They cannot be understood by average
individuals. Only time will tell their genius. For instance, Einstein was one
such scientist who continues to inspire many scientists and others globally. He
was unique because he had a rare imagination. He was unique because he had an
unconventional way of looking at the problems. He was unique because he was an
out-of-the-box thinker. He was unique because he was persistent by nature. He
was unique and that is why we remember and respect him even today.
As a
professor, I observed many students. I found some students to be dull and
docile. When I encouraged them, the best within them came out. Einstein was not
a good student academically. He was a school dropout. He failed in exams. He
was rebellious by nature. He was a non-conformist. He wrote several books. He
was also a philosopher. He was curious and persistent. He was neglected and
ridiculed in his initial life but later respected. He could break the
limitations of human imagination. He showed that human imagination is unlimited
while knowledge is limited.
Some people
mature late. They are late bloomers. They mature late but they grow like a
bamboo tree. So, don't write off students and children because they don't do
well academically initially.
The world is
growing due to non-conformists and unreasonable people. They don’t settle for
less. They keep trying and finding new things. They don’t entertain naysayers.
Takeaway: Einstein's
unique way of thinking contributed to his genius. Curiosity matters more than
so-called smartness. So, be curious and persistent to achieve amazing success. The
world has progressed due to unreasonable people and non-conformists. Be a
non-conformist in Einstein's way.
“Blind
respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth.” ―Albert Einstein

The Journey Of A Thousand Miles Begins With One Step
“The journey
of a thousand miles begins with one step.” ―Lao Tzu
It is one of
my favorite quotes. I believe in it and follow it. Your dreams can come true if
you take the first step. Therefore, come out of your comfort zone. Take the
first step to achieve greatness. When you take the first step, you gain
momentum. You get energized to move forward. So be prepared to take the first
step.
Takeaway: Think and
act. Get into action. Don't standstill.
Have faith in yourself. Take the first step. Keep moving forward to achieve
greatness.
