The eagle has the longest life-span of it’s' species. It can live up to 70 years But to reach this age, the eagle must make a hard decision.

In its' 40's Its' long and flexible talons can no longer grab prey Which serves as food. Its' long and sharp beak becomes bent. Its' old-aged and heavy wings, due to their thick feathers,
become stuck to its' chest and make it difficult to fly

Then, the eagle is left with only two options:
Die or go through a painful process of change which lasts 150 days.

If it exercises the 2nd Option, this is what it should undergo

The process requires that the eagle fly to a mountain top and sit on its' nest There the eagle knocks its' beak against a rock until it comes off. After plucking it out, the eagle will wait for a new beak to grow back and then it will pluck out its' talons When its' new talons grow back,
the eagle starts plucking its' old-aged feathers And after five months, the eagle takes its' famous flight of rebirth and lives for ... 30 more years

Why is change needed?

Many times in order to survive we ahve to start a change process. We sometimes need to get rid of Old memories, Habits and other past traditions. Only freed from past burdens, can wse take advantages of the PRESENT

Dr Natarajan - The Indusrial Queens Maker

This was pending for a long time from me - to write about one of the Best persons in the world - who encourages Woman to Take up the mantle of Owner of their own Enterprise. That why I have named him the Industrial Queens Maker. How many woman entrepreneurs he would have helped in making - must be running in 5 figures already. do you know of anybody other than Dr Natarajan , who has gained a doctorate on his research paper on "Women Entrepreneurship". His work was his life. The post of Jt director, Tamil Nadu Industries Department in`charge of Women Entrepreneurship was the most apt post for him. You go to him with just one dream - Wanting to go out on your Own - He will make it happen - that is the truth about him. He not only used to counsel people about what kind of industry will suit them, but will also advice about the various methods in running it efficiently and also actively help them to get started. He even used to guide them about how to approach the fi

Nathdwara, Rajasthan

 Rajastahn Tour Dairies Day 5 contd.. So doing a repeat post on this Little Krishna's abode which was the main reason why I signed up for the tour. The most powerful Little Child who makes people fall in love with this eternal bliss of God - Shrinath ji.   How fortunate are the people living in here who can have the different darshans of the Lord at different time of day.  Yes all the Arathis are different with beautiful attire and charming smile and different nivedhayam. Even to stand in front of him is more than enough for anyone.   History of Nathdwara Shrinathji says that during the reign of Aurangzeb, statue of Lord Krishna was moved from Vrindavan to enshrine it at a safe place. However, when the vehicle carrying the statue passed through the particular spot where the temple now is, its wheels were stuck in the mud. The priest accompanying the image interpreted it to be an indication from the Lord himself. People understood that the Lord did not want to move any further. Ther

IT SME FORUM

About 7 months back a group of Entrepreneurs from Chennai who had a common thread of running their software companies got togehter to form a cohesive group - The IT SME FORUM - as a Strategy to accelerate their individual growth through synergy. Each one of these entrepreneurs are successfully running their software companies fighting individual battles to keep the company up and running, maintain a steady growth rate, increase their customer base, etc. Running a company in India is not a easy task - it is literally getting pulled in thousands of direction and believe me - A business leader is supposed to concentrate only on Growth - Marketing - Sales. But I have found that typically in the Indian environ, we get pulled into operations and managing to spend some time for the most crucial aspect of the business. This gave rise to the idea - why not have a platform to share the best practices, to learn how to tackle problems, get a better voice and get a big bandwidth in terms of out rea
