Be a PlayMaker !

Playmaker - a player in a team sport who leads attacks or manoeuvres in such a way that a teammate can score .


The Playmakers should have skill, agility, the ability to read opponents mind at the same time be aware of the positions of his own teammates , so that he can pass the ball to the right person who can score goals.


Thats what our corporate world needs , Be a PlayMaker !

Keep Running

Running is different experience altogether , regret having realised so late in life. During this 20 minute run , all my faculties ( mind , sight , ears , heart ) seem to working at their full potential .


While running -


I observe a lot

I listen to the music – carefully , realised the beauty of the song “Hero” by Mariah Carey while running

I don’t talk at all – best use of your speech

I sweat a lot – sure this is the only time i like my sweat soaked jersey

I inspire – when I run by a person walking slowly , i see a change in his speed

I get inspired – by the runners who overtake me

I realise the pain and the relaxation when i stop running


While Running , I ENJOY . Keep Running

Elevator Pitch

I am really excited about this concept ; Its about being able to express your idea in an elevator ride , minute or so . If you log in to twitter – it also speaks about “one line bio” and even the messages are limited to 140 character (single sms).

So your single “tweets” has to be of 140 character or lesser and still be carrying the message for your followers. I tried to be clear , effective and powerful in 140 characters .

Hi,am vikas , am working on a text based idea 4 ur weekend plan. Say u want to go to watch play just sms “ plays 10 march powai” and sen

That’s where my 140 characters end . That the challenge of brevity .

I think that’s what we all need to master while meeting seniors, making presentations, meeting clients, peers etc. If you are not able to express yourself / your idea in first couple of minutes or even lesser , you are wasting space .

Keep Looking .. Don't Settle

My first embedded video on this blog , it has to be "steve jobs" . Its very popular "Steve Jobs Stanford Commencement Speech 2005" . I could have posted the text version but nothing like hearing from the genius himself.

"Its impossible to connect the dots looking forward , you can only connect the dots looking backwards. Trust...., and believe that the dots would connect into your future because believeing that the dots would connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart"

Must watch & hear video.
