Total distraction…

Scene at the airport in Bangalore....

One lady complains at the security check because her mobile phone some how was not found after passing through the security scan [the black box!] …judging from a word here and there and gestures [don’t understand what they are saying otherwise]..

The entire crew on 2 separate lines [about 10 of them] got involved ie the security scan completely stopped because everyone’s attention completely diverted to this one person and all other passengers have to wait.

It is very easy to create diversion – take attention away – in India. The very communal culture makes everything everybody’s business. This has made creating a professional business culture all too challenging.

Quotations:

God starts us out on a life course to fulfill a certain purpose and then, only when we are ready, He gives us course corrections. Like a good river pilot, He steers us away from troubled waters, and like a good coach, He never puts us in the game until we are ready. The journey is never boring.

REMEMBER THIS ABOUT YOU...

  Read this out loud to yourself, and mean it!!

  I am precious, valuable, lovable and capable.
  The world will not be the same without me.
  I make a difference in this world, in the community I live in.
  I can make another person smile.
  I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
  I sing for I am loved by a great God whose nature is to give  love, mercy and grace.

  [In Hindi]
  Mai amulya hoon.
  Yeh duniya mayray bina wahi nahin rahegi.
  Mayray hone say is duniya mein kuch badlav hai.
  Mujh se doosre ke chahre pay muskuraahat aati hai.
  Mujhe bhayankar se banaya gaya hai.
  Mujhe gaana hai ki ek mahaan; ishwhar mujhe pyaar karte.
  Hain aur mayray prati daya dikhaate hain.
