the field of management and the affective domain ..how insensitive!!!

We talk about professionals need to be logic oriented and not emotional.. and then we only crib that they don't bring any "passion" into their job..
tell me o wise businessman and academicians.. when did 'passion' cease to be an emotion ?

ek aane ka sach..

main sirf ek aana hoon.. aaj ka zamana rupye aur paison ka hai.. main isme ak aana hoon...
aise to zamane ko meri koi zaroorat nahi mehsoos hoti lekin jab logon ke paas kisi naye shahar mein thoda samay hota hai to museum mein jakar mujhe dekhna man kafi khushi hoti hai.. mujhe dekhte hue.. nawvadhu ka haath uska pati pakd leta hai aur dono mein romance ho jata hai..
mujhe dekhte hue gusse se alag thalag hue dampatti bhi ekdoosre ke paas akar apni ekta ko jagruk kar gussa pee jate hain ..
mujhe dekhte hue kitne Boyfreind apni girlfreind ko kissa sunate hue "patate" hain...
thik waise hi jaise kisi chote bachche ke ma baap use meri kahani suna kar rijhate hain..

par main ek display mein band item matra hoon.. shanti se ek sthir bhaav se sab kcuh mahsoos karta hoon . dekhte hoon samajhta hoon .. lekin kuch kahta nahi.. gir kar awaaz karta hoon ya takra kar.. lekin use koi na to sunta hai aur na samajhta hai...main chup chap apni jagah mein pada rahoon tabhi achcha hooon...

mere saamne jo aata hai woh meri banavat and dhalti umar ko dekh kar apna man banata hai .. ki main dekhne layak hoon ya uske samay ki barbaadi hoon.. aakhir main sirf ek aana hoon...

waise majboori mein bade kaam ki cheez hoon.. bechne par apni rupye mein keemat se zyada hi laata hoon kyun ki main antique hoon.. aur kafi achche dhatu se bana hoon isliye "thos" hooon ..agar kuch na ho to mujhe bech kar kahin bhi fit kr ke kafi kaam ban sakta hai.. suna hai kayi automatic locks mere kone se ghumne par khul jate hain.. main kaam pade to aise hi tale kholne wali chaabhi hoon.. lekin agar mueseum main qaid hoo to sirf ek item matra hoon.

waise socho to is duniya mein sabhi buddhe aur purane logon ka yahi haal hain. item matra hain.. sab kuch dekhte hain samajhte hain .. lekin kh kuch nahi sakte.. jab tak apni jaagh baithe hue hain tabhi tak achche hain.. uske siwa waqt ki barbaadi hain.. aur haan waqt pade to kafi kaam ki cheez hote hain khas kar jab chote bachchon ko palna ho.. unki dekh rekh karni ho aur unhe kuch sikhana ho..ie automatic locks ke liye main ek mast chabhi hooon.. kyun ki logon ki apni chabhiyan to aaj ki bhag daude mein kab kahan gir kar kho gayi kisi ko bhi pata nahi....

buddha samjho ya antique main sirf ek aana hoon..waise kaam aata hoon to main sirf "anna" hoon

Captain Cool and Public not so cool..!!!

I have been interested in that phrase called 'Captain Cool' coined for Mahendra Singh Dhoni. He is definitely an icon like no other, sharing space with Tendulkar yet so commanding in his presence that he stands taller. However the recent spate of criticism of Captain Cool has led me to think of why are we as Fans and public not so cool.

The captain was 'cool' when his attitude to risk taking paid off and won us matches , series and tournaments.. He is the one who brought stability to the captaincy of the team and to the team.. do we remember how we had the best individual players and managed to lose so many series and matches when we were poised for victory. He and Saurabh Ganguly are to be credited to make us believe that we can do it as a team. They stand out.. they took some risks and they excelled. Risks by nature will not work out all the time. Ganguly took risks and didnt work out. This series the risks of Dhoni did not seem to work.

Isnt it all part of the plan.. you keep taking risks.. and you keep learnign to take better risks.. and take risks better...but if the personality of the captain is about taking risks .. he will and he should continue to..cause that is what works for him. You stop him from taking risks and we lose one of the best players across the various fromats of the game from the infant T20 to the over aged Tests. A player who probably comes second in consistence to Rahul Dravid in the last half decade. A record of consistency better than even Tendulkars at number 7 down !

for me clearly the captain is cool.. he has give us the team of tomorrow... ajinkya rahane.. murali vijay...suresh raina.... virat kohli....Rohit Sharma....r ashwin ... Ravindra Jadeja...R P Singh..Sreesanth.. and more importantly he has made them play together as one unit.. which was difficult even when the greatest of individual players ramped up the Indian team together in a group of 11.

To me the captain has a more long term focus than most critics and analysts of the game can have.. he has made us think.. what beyond the world cups and the best coaches and the best individuals players... ask yourself .. Do you think Team India can be a world winning side without Tendulkar / Dravid and Srinath and who takes the credit for enabling that..

Take it from me.. The Captain is Cool.
