politics at college
Speech written for an aspiring politician invited for a motivational speech for college passouts.
I am honoured to be with you on this august occasion.
You stand at the cusp of time when patterns will give away to uncertainty, don’t worry throw open
the window and see the world as it unfolds. There will be no syllabus to limit you, in-fact a
lot of people get paid for thinking (some call them ideators). The Barometer that you got used to as
yardstick to measure your performance in class will change. Performance will be measured by
effectiveness and not efficiency. It will be measured by your ability to out-think your competition,
yes it will be true “survival of the fittest”.
You cannot connect the dots going forward you can only do it looking backwards....... So trust your
instincts......out of chaos emerges order. When you decide to do something, the world conspires to
make it happen; yes the roads may be uncharted but then if you follow the beaten part you will
reach where others have reached before...... so don’t fear to take the plunge...... dream because if you
can’t then how will your dreams come true.
Steve jobs used to walk 7 miles to the Hare Krishna Temple to get a free meal, and he preferred to
stay hungry (pun intended) till the last day of his life. Bill Gates was negotiating with a giant like IBM for PC when he didn’t even have the blueprint of the PC he would like to sell them. When our own Infosys was going through difficult times the founders wanted to sell Infosys for a Million Dollars......NRN put his feet down saying that if that has to happen then he would buy it. Seeing NRN’s confidence in the company nobody ever talked of walking out any more, and we have Infosys where it stands today.
Don’t try to be sure of everything that you do or intent to do. This is real life not your college; all or
most of creativity and innovation comes out of restlessness to find something. So, stay hungry.
Don’t do what you like rather like what you do. Yes you may end up with a hard landing sometimes,
but don’t lose faith. Please remember your work is going to be a large part of your life, and so if you
don’t enjoy doing whatever you are doing the journey will be painful, boring and tiresome.
I wish you all the best in this new journey. Look good, stay bright and keeping asking yourself every
day, have I learnt something new. The insatiable desire to learn will lead you to explore new horizons and go where no Mangalorian has ever gone before.
Bon Voyage

He then offers some flowers in the first temple.He goes with the balance to second pond and takes a dip. Again the number of flowers increases by 100 times. He offers the same number of flowers at second temple and leaves with the balance flowers to the third pond. There after the dip the number of flowers increase by 100 times. He offers same number of flowers at temple 3 and nothing remains with him afterwards. So how many flowers did he have in the beginning.
