Lies, Illusions, Delusions and The Truth by Manoj SharmaPeople reveal their true identity most accurately, in the lies they tell behind closed doors to themselves, more so than the lies they attempt to cover up in the publics eye.There is a state of mind present in the early stages of unconsciousness of all in all human beings; a state of mind in which we conveniently lie to ourselves to, strangely, hide the truth from ourselves. Some call this a defense mechanism, a convenient pretense and/or an artful fake. Whatever the name we accord to it, the truth is it the individual ego's attempt towards self-preservation.The individual's ego, hiding in the shadows, having convinced the host that it does not exist, does this by creating an illusion than it deems more conducive to its aims.

Redefining The 48 Laws Of Power by Manoj SharmaI write this with respect for the work that Robert Green and Joost Elfers have been doing and safe in the knowledge that they are big and open enough to entertain another point of view.Law 1Robert Green and Joost Elfers say, "Never outshine your master"Manoj Sharma says, "Strive to outshine your master"You should strive to build a win-win relationship with your Master based on mutual respect, trust and and above all contribution to each other such that you have their permission and support to go beyond where they have gone and show total respect towards each other as professionals at the same time. A true master ultimately seeks for nothing more than to have a disciple build upon their work and take it to the next level. Any master who does not strive for this end is not really a master but a power hungry, praise seeking, ego-maniac.Law 2 Robert Green and Joost Elfers say, "Never put too much trust in friends, learn how to use enemies."

The Difference Between Human Resources, Human Capital And Human Investment by Manoj SharmaHuman resources is a general term used to represent the people element within organizations. In years past while organizations robotically said that their people were their greatest assets, this was mostly just lip service. Today with the human resource function within most professionally run organizations taking on a broader role beyond menial administration, the question of human capital and even human investment has become a topic of huge interest.Naturally, this interest stems from the realization that human being are an expense that cost financial capital to acquire, maintain and retain. That the right human being in the right place within an organization can prove to be huge competitive advantages in the face of various challenges. And ultimately that if as an organization is investing in human resources, an organization needs to show clear return on investment in an increasingly pay-per-per

Key Elements Of A Great Marketing Plan For A Successful Business by Manoj Sharma - Part INo matter what business you are in or plan to get into, it is always great (especially towards the end of the year) to create a new marketing plan as part of an on-going effort. I know to many doing a marketing plan for an established business may sound strange but there is tremendous value in zero-basing your business and creating it a fresh year on year. For starters, it will put aside all that has happened and allow you to look at things afresh, not to mention it will also keep you on your toes. Finally it will force you to engage in creative destruction - reevaluating all that is no longer relevant and of value (even if it may have been of great value in the past. This also applies to employees and business partners) and consciously recreate the future that best serves all parties concerned.a) Executive SummaryA marketing plan is best fronted by an Executive Summary that sums up the key element

Being a Professional Coach by Manoj SharmaBeing a professional coach is a calling. A calling to be greater than you are, a calling to contribute to other's lives and a calling to continue to self-adjust without abasement. You do not become a professional coach by accident, by printing a name card that says so, and you certainly do not become a professional coach without major sacrifice - be it sacrifices of your time, your money or your energy in its various forms.Being a professional coach is a systematic evolution, that happens second by second, hour by hour, day by day, week by week and year by year. It is a gradual process, which can be catalyzed, that when looked at from a distance seems to others like a sudden revolution.It starts with becoming ruthlessly good at what you do, and requires a dogged willingness to be great. It calls for mentors, masters and masterful coaches to take you under their wing, show you the ropes and save you years of frustration in trail and error. It t

Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan and director Farah Khan Friday said “sorry” to Manoj Kumar for what he perceived as his humiliation in a scene in the recently-released “Om Shanti Om”. But the legendary actor is unmoved, trade sources said. Manoj Kumar has not accepted the apology yet. “The two (Shah Rukh and Farah) will be required to do a lot more to convince him to forgive and forget,” the trade sources told IANS Friday night.

You Absolutely Have To Identify Which One Of These Two Path You Are On by Manoj SharmaAre you on the path to something or nothing. Read on and identify it for yourself. Your harmony, peace and bliss is on the line.Everything in the known material universe originates through thought. From thought, through a series of processes, the world as you know it created and continues to create itself. Every thing you see, the world, every region, every country, every community, every organization, every landscape, every infrastructure and even every human being, is the way they are, because of thoughts that were there and thoughts that were not there. Everything and everybody is the result of thoughts that express themselves materially and non-thoughts that do not express themselves materially.An artist has a painting in mind before he paints and then creates a painting. An architect has a building in mind before she plans and then creates a building. A director has a movie in mind before he dire

What Does All Of Humanity Desire? by Manoj SharmaAll of humanity knowingly or unknowingly ultimately desires to re-discover, re-connect and re-merge with the source of the universe. This does not necessarily have to only happen in seclusion, it can well happen through the normal course of an active modern life.The above is true for all people, of all ages, all educational levels, all economic standings, all political affiliations, all societal variations, all geographical regions and all manner of sophistication. And this in itself should be spectacularly illuminating.Those in the know, know that something magnificent comes to light from within a human being as the human being pursues this most ultimate of human desires. A certain clarity of mind, stability of emotions, soundness of body and freeing of the spirit are just some of the obvious observations.While it is intuitively well known that there is something very powerful, purposeful, meaningful, timeless and true at play in the pu

Things To Remember In Relation To A Dialogue by Manoj SharmaRemember that....1) Your life is a living laboratory, for you to experiment and experience till you gain the liberation of enlightenment.2) Human relationships are a dialogue and that when the dialogue is over, the relationship is over.3) For there to be a true dialogue, human being needs to "check in" with themselves and other human beings too. We can loosely term these "check ins" as intra-personal communication and inter-personal communication that involve becoming present to intentions, contexts, contents, feelings and meanings.4) Once people re-discover the value of a dialogue, it is like a re-recognition of an art form they knew and a re-gaining of something they seem to have lost.5) Having a real dialogue, is having a real awakening that once had is impossible to put to sleep, as it is being in the midst of the most sublime of experiences.6) Just because you are having a conversation with another party it may not tantam

How To Create A Culture Of Service Excellence by Manoj SharmaService standards are becoming more and more crucial to the longevity and success of organizations. They are a key differentiator and a competitive advantage that is rarely fully realized. The problem lies in that most organization while lauding the importance of service only pay lip service to it. Service is mostly promoted in organizations in spits and spurts with ad hoc service initiatives and almost never (with the exception of top-notch service organizations) as a complete whole, across-the-board, fully-infused, year-after-year cultural initiative.For an organization, its people and its customers to fully benefit from the true value and meaning of service, organizations need to invest a considerable more by gaining a clearer idea as to how to create a culture of service excellence.The following guide should give you some food for thought. 1) Don't run a service initiative until leadership has completely bought into it a

Some More Thoughts On Service by Manoj SharmaService is an all-term solution, not just a knee-jerk, short, mid or long term solution.Serving because...what goes around, come around,it is easier to sell to an existing customer, it costs less to reach an existing customer,if they are buying from you, they are not buying from your competitor,repeat customers are slightly less price sensitive,repeat customers are more willing to purchase more,repeat customers are more willing to recommend others...... is not service, its strategy. Let us not confuse the two.Service is an orientation, it is where you are coming from, it is not just a before, during and after event with moments of truth.Be of service in life, not wait for service in life. Only then will you understand not just how to serve a customer, but to be of service as a customer.Service is not a part of your job (whatever your job may or may not be); service is your job.Which level of service are you at?Level 1 - not serving for whate

The Future by Manoj SharmaIt is crucial that you face reality and be optimistic about the future and execute your plans now with passion.

Why? Because that is the law of progress.Change will continue to alter the social, economic, political and geographical landscape.

10 Step Framework For Great Decision Making by Manoj SharmaEverybody knows the value of making great decisions, but most people do not have a clue as to how to make good decisions or even that there is a basic framework that can assist you to make great decisions.You need to make decisions everyday as do people everywhere, at home, at work and at play. Before you explore DifferWorld's 10 Step Framework For Great Decision Making that could assist you, your teams and your organization tremendously, it would be good to get a more encompassing perspective on decision making.Decision making is different from executing an order, carrying out a task or simply making something happen. Great decision making does not require all the fact to be in, or even for the facts to be absolutely accurate, but requires a certain sufficiency of information, combined with good expertise, experience, gut feel and other peoples' sentiments. No decision is not a bad decision, just as a fast decision is not a

Seize The Opportunity Here And Now by Manoj SharmaIn the mind of an "ignorant" child there are infinite possibilities, but in the mind of an "knowledgeable" adult there are few. Correspondingly, those who live their lives as being a possibility of something or another are only giving further power to their ego. Their ego, which is only too happy to convince them as to their own grandeur, legacy and "contribution".Following the path of possibility will only serve to move you further towards the systematic failure to appreciate the underlying principle of the universe, made up of multi-verses, existing as an opportunity waiting to be seized.An opportunity, here and now, for consciousnesses to emerge, re-merge and sub-merge with consciousness itself and ultimately realize its true nature. As usual, please feel free to send me your thoughts and comments to Info@DifferWorld.com And if you'd like to explore how you, your teams and your organization can benefit from the above and other Dif

Are You In The Know? by Manoj SharmaBorn you were, as everyone else is, almost completely ignorant. Ignorant about yourself, ignorant about your world and certainly about yourself in it. Sure, you had some basic survival mechanisms in place such as crying for food, not putting yourself in danger and resonating to the friendliness of a smile. Outside of the above and their likes, you were even born ignorant of mother and father and definitely ignorant of language, mathematics, science, society, ethics, arts and the other fundamentals that signify a "civilized" human being. You had precious little knowledge of anything (And in the bigger scheme of things, are you willing to be truthful enough to recognize that you still don't?) - and therefore were born largely ignorant. As knowledge crept into your presence, correspondingly ignorance started to eliminate itself and ideally this process of gaining wisdom should continue until the day you die.Presently you are who you are and face the se

10 Things I Believe In by Manoj Sharma1) Humanity above organized religion, as the here and now greatest power we have, with a creator - a certain Oneness, that pervades every thing and no thing and expresses itself actively and passively as pure consciousness.2) The fallibility of our egos.3) The nature of our world and surrendering to the process of creation, sustenance and destruction.4) The importance of recognizing and owning our individual motivators of fears & desires, gravitations of pains & pleasures, limiting & empowering strategies and selfish & selfless orientations.5) The need for all human beings to clearly know their core values and innermost passions, to create a compelling vision for their lives, live with a sense of mission, while becoming clear about their desired rewards and ultimately living as a congruent identity.6) The universal principle-based, immediately-actionable, core-knowledge relationship between involution, evolution, devolution and revo

Are You Living As A Congruent Identity? by Manoj SharmaIn the volatility and interconnectedness of the world we live in, all it takes is one bad apple to start the rot, one unknown assassin to send a city into chaos and one bad sheep to ruin everyone's good name.We need to clearly appreciate that one conscious way of being can be a contributing factor, one powerful thought can set a direction for life, one well chosen word can shift the entire meaning, one conscientious action can define your entire life and one significant result can make a world of difference.In the same way, when it comes to human beings, one act of pretense can cause you to live a lie, one element of self-deception can cause you to live an incongruent life and in effect this can completely compromise your potential for magnificence.For a human being to live a truly wealthy life of fulfillment, performance and profitability, the human being first has to identify and root out incongruent and idiosyncratic limiting s

Calling on my ever increasing wealth of experience here is a short check list that you can go through to get a sense of where your personal relationship is headed. Also remember, never have I had a Relationship Coaching Client whose major problems did not start with "small & insignificant" inconveniences that they chose to ignore.Relationships get destroyed because at the very least someone is...Being selfish and ego-centric.Not investing in regular quality dialogues.Not being enough of a contribution to the relationship.Taking the relationships too seriously and not being light hearted enough.Not appreciating the value of mutually beneficial common standards and upholding them.Being

Are You Too Suffering From These Deadly Silent Killer Of Fulfillment? by Manoj SharmaEven the most respected professionals, the captains of industries, leaders in their fields, the top producers in organizations and others who are the barometers of conventional success have dips in their performance. Known or unknown to them, by allowing these dips to continue unresolved, they in effect compromise their own, their team's, their organization's and even their family's (and in some cases their community's and nation's) overall fulfillment (and profitability) levels.Not addressed professionally and immediately, these periods of unavoidable and natural lows can go on perpetually, leading to an unnatural and avoidable range of mental, emotional, physical, spiritual and financial entanglements. The longer these symptoms are ignored or a compromised without any real resolution, the harder they become to address, as they take on a life of their own, careen offtrack and snowball out of con

What Is Responsibility? by Manoj SharmaOver the years responsibility has crept more and more into our everyday lexicon and has become part of our presently evolving zeitgeist. We hear the word being used, we use the word, we have a general understanding of the word, but really what is responsibility at a deeper, more sophisticated and meaningful level?The Random House Unabridged Dictionary defines responsibility as:the state or fact of being responsible. an instance of being responsible: The responsibility for this mess is yours! a particular burden of obligation upon one who is responsible: the responsibilities of authority.a person or thing for which one is responsible: A child is a responsibility to its parents.reliability or dependability, esp. in meeting debts or payments. —Idiomon one's own responsibility, on one's own initiative or authority: He changed the order on his own responsibility.While the American Heritage Dictionary defines responsibility as:The state, quali

Living An Unreal Life by Manoj SharmaMost of the suffering a human being experiences across a lifetime is mental and emotional and human beings have been conditioned over generations to keep this "more often than you can imagine" suffering hidden from others and generally take it, in their thinking moments, to be the normal malaise of society.The truth of the matter is that the part that is hidden is largely a counter-to-magnificence pretense, while the belief in it being the normal malaise of society, is absolutely erroneous and simply an ill, due to ignorance of what could have been and what can still be for generations to come. To contemplate and become even remotely and briefly aware of the extent of human suffering permeating and being caused across all strata of society from time immemorial, is to become aware of the urgent need to discern; discern between what is real and not real and to start to live an unreal life.Consider for starters that what is real to you (through whate

The Successful Professional of The Future by Manoj SharmaInteracting with numerous global organizations, listening first hand to their rising international challenges, bouncing ideas with their top executives and with my present future focus towards individual, team and organizational profitability, performance and fulfillment - here is an outline as to what The Successful Professional Of The Future needs to be, to seek and to create. Read it and see for yourself how you stack up to it.EducationThe Successful Professional Of The Future requires a continuous quarter on quarter, ever increasing and highly valuable professional education and the maturity to go along with it. This is necessary to connect the dots and formulate a clear picture of the real picture behind the noisy conversations in the mass media. Thereafter The Successful Professional Of The Future needs to use this new insight towards formulating plans and actioning them towards delivering great results. To do this, The Su

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 28 - ONENESS - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...One minute thought, word, action and/or result involves and integrates the entire universe. It connects everything and allows for nothing to occur in isolation.Everything connects to a oneness; a one certain something from which there is no exception and exclusion.Oneness does not need, want and desire anything as it is all things and non-things.Oneness is everything, everywhere, eternally.The original conditions, the choices, causes and consequences that follow and lead to present conditions are but oneness at play.Oneness does not require perfect as it is perfection.Deep contemplation takes you to oneness and thinking takes you away from oneness once you are there.Oneness takes all forms of creation, continuity and destruction. Recognizing this truth removes the illusion of birth, growth and death once and for all.Oneness, Allness, Noneness are the same one thing.To experience onenes

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 27 - HUMANITY - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...All of humanity springs forth from one consciousness and because of that all of humanity is one, from a standpoint of higher knowledge, all the differences we perceive with lower knowledge are absolutely superficial and illusionary.As collective consciousness increases across humanity we give ourselves a chance to discover our greatness, but in the absence of this consciousness we give our individual egos room to reinforce our littleness.Everything humanity has comes from nature and to nature it returns. This is inclusive of humanity itself, which like everything else follows the principle of creation, sustenance and destruction. Our presence on this planet is not guaranteed and is certainly not a right.Every human being is born to fully realize the highest within. The highest within that connects not just all of humanity but the entire universe.Eventually you as a human being will ei

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 26 - EMOTIONS - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...Do you best to keep a check on your emotions before, when and after they take you over and unravel them at the soonest.To unravel your emotions requires an unbiased examination into your choices, causes and consequences.Your emotions are closer to your reality that your body, mind and spirit and therefore the easiest to discern.As your emotions are in the moment, so you are in the moment.Emotions should not be confused as a product of the heart, as what people refer to as heart and soul are much closer to what is actually spirit.Your emotions and other people's emotions are contagious and collectively create a sphere of emotions that you will do well to be mindful of and recreate if necessary as your emotions create both your paradise and prison.Remember that you have commonality of spirit, duality of mind, singularity of body and multiplicity of emotions that range from empowering,

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 25 - DISCIPLINE - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...While the gate is open and an invitation extended to all to enter, it is only the disciplined who succeed in existing at the end.Long term discipline is always required to find what you seek.Finding your way to the path is tough enough, but having the discipline to stay the course is tougher still.Self-discipline before discipline from others.Being informed as to the principles is very different from the discipline of living the principles.Discipline is the prerequisite for great achievement. The presence of discipline is a success maker, its absence is a success breaker.To fully devote yourself to a discipline over a prolonged period of time is a sure path to success, power and mastery.Total discipline has to be inclusive of both doing certain things and not doing certain things.Discipline has the greatest meaning in the face of doing what is tough, hard and difficult for you. Disc

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 24 - PERCEPTION - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...Perception has been called reality, but what happens when you regard your external reality to be true but, only as a perception unique to you?Your perception while a reality is not the same as the reality. To appreciate the reality, requires a removal of your perception.You have a choice as to how you choose to perceive and a decision to make on what you want to have show up in your next reality.Your perception is your point of view, another's perception may or may not be a differing point of view. While it is easier for you to see your point of view, it is much tougher to see another's point of view and virtually impossible without a high level of consciousness to observe view point - a point of view without the bias of perception.The further into yesterday and tomorrow you can peer the more sense everything happening today will make and the more your perception will fade into tr

What Is Financial Freedom? by Manoj SharmaFinancial freedom while being an extraordinarily popular general aspiration is a very individualistic and subjective pursuit. Individualistic as it stems from the desire for financial freedom from the ego-based "me, myself and I", and subjective because financial freedom means a vast variety of things to different people, at different stages of their growth, at different levels of society.If one simply looks at the phrase "financial freedom" one would be pardoned for assuming that it refers to freedom from finances. In contemporary, everyday life, true freedom from finances can only be possible by living a strictly secluded and isolated monastic life (and even then it can be quite a challenge). It is rather safe to assume that this is not the desire of the general populous when they express their desire for financial freedom.So what is financial freedom to people in general and what is true financial freedom?Before, we get to that, like it or

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 23 - MIND - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...The human mind is very subtle, incredibly fluid, vastly expansive, absolutely unbounded and yet it basically works in a finite number of ways, across an infinite spectrum.You are not your mind, your body, your emotions or your spirit. You are a whole made up of all those parts. It's all you.You are not where you body, or your emotions, your finances, or spirit is at. You are where your mind is at.Through your body, your senses assimilate your world, thereafter your mind reacts or creates, while your spirit observes and your emotions sway. Fear and desire trap the mind and keep it as a slave to the body.Ignorance darkens the mind, while knowledge illuminates the mind. Continuous illumination of the mind leads to enlightenment of the mind.The impurity of your mind, may or may not infect another human being, but it certainly infects you. It is the same with purity of your mind.The mind attr

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 22 - BODY - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...Truth requires first a body consciousness and then an elevation beyond that.As hard as it is to swallow and harder still to put into practice, all pursuit of the material is the product of ignorance. While spirit and mind can exist without body, emotions and finances have no meaning without the body. This makes most sense in appreciation of the knowledge that the body is transient.Common spirit - associative mind - a body - ranging emotions - impermanent finances. This is the sum that makes the whole. Your body is the nucleus around which your spirit, mind, emotions and finances revolve.Your body is an instrument necessary for you to experience life and liberty. So appreciation of it should at all times exceed denial of it.First body consciousness, then body neutrality, not the other way around.Body neutrality dissolves ego, diffuses psychological pain and pleasure and takes away fear and

Truisms of Culture by Manoj SharmaFor an individual, a team, an organization, a community, a nation and the world as a whole to shift its paradigms and live in a vastly different and preferably more conducive holistic manner require a permanent shift in culture. Naturally, culture rarely, and almost never shifts permanently overnight, with the exception being in the face of a major cataclysmic event. But a shift in culture can be, none-the-less, progressively engineered over time.To do so, we must first, at the very least, appreciate what culture is and how it shifts. If you've attended any of my initiatives over the years, especially a "Culture of Service Excellence" you may be aware that I define culture as the collective and predominant thoughts of a group of individuals put into words, established through actions and observable through results. So, it was very interesting for me to come across the following from Richard Dawkin's "The Selfish Gene". Although the book was much mali

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 21 - EDUCATION - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...To education another best, requires compassion, great insight, direct experience, a high degree of expertise, the willingness to share an abundance of knowledge and the continuous re-educate oneself. And the willingness to have this ultimately translates itself into wisdom towards creating true wealth.Thoughts and words are a powerful means of education, but far more powerful means of education are actions and results.If an individual is not willing to put aside his/her ego, listen openly and even risk contemplating ideas that are contrary to his/her own, there is no foundation created for new learning to be gained.Education is not a one time event, it is a continuous never ending process of deepening insights.There are 3 basic types of education. Formal education - the education you gain through school that allows you to be a functioning member of society. Informal education - the e

What Caused The Great Depression And What Can We Learn From It Today by Manoj SharmaThe Great Depression is the term given to a period in recent history, starting on Tuesday, the 29th of October 1929 - a day now known as Black Tuesday. The event was sparked by the almost total collapse of the American Stock Market and the repercussions of this were felt around the world for the next 10 years.There have been many downturns in the economy over the last 100 years but The Great Depression stands out as a landmark event in world history as it resulted in...unparalleled loss of financial wealth,widespread unemployment,mounting debt,abject poverty,extreme homelessness,social unrest,political turmoil,industrial collapse,shrinking exports,grinding down of international trade andall the social, economic and political ills associated with the above. So what caused this apocalyptic scenario to unfold?The first thing of note is that The Great Depression occurred in the United States on the back of

What Is A Stock Exchange? by Manoj SharmaA Stock Exchange is an organization run by a company or institution that is in active business by itself. The Stock Exchange collectively forms and runs the system upon which companies publicly list on, traders trade on, and brokers assist to facilitate the trade of stocks, bonds and other securities. Today the term Stock Exchange is used interchangeably with the words, Stock Market and Bourse.The origins of stock markets can arguably be traced back to 11th century Cairo, where Jewish and Muslim merchants established their own associations along with methods of payments and credits. This idea permeated Western civilization in 12th century Italy and France and took off across Europe thereafter. There are multiple claims on who is the oldest stock exchange with claims going back to the 9th century but, according to Research Machines, and simply for our reference, the oldest stock exchanges in the world are believed to be "Antwerp (1460), Hamburg (

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 20 - WORLD - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...Being fully engaged, while simultaneously, being completely disengaged from your world is possibly the toughest of human challenges you might ever face.This world is both an illusion and reality, in which we tend to, live in delusion and unreality.Once a human being starts to accept this world as a friend and also rejects it as an impostor, the human being can start to come into his/her own.This world, your world, while not the be-all and end-all, needs to be lived in, as if it is.It is impossible to check into this world and check out of it without personal consequence, so mindfulness is required.It is pointless to attach yourself to the delights of this world and pointless to reject them. Strive for acceptance instead.Creation, sustenance and destruction are the three facets of change and the foundation on which everything in our world exists.The world while driven by consciousness, de

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 19 - GREED - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...Allow greed and fear to bond to you through your ego is the highest price you can pay in the pursuit of financial and non-financial wealth.All excess is the by product of some form of greed.There there is greed, there cannot be contribution.The wise seek slow acceleration of value, while the greedy seek fast acceleration of profit.The bad news is that greed will lead you down the path of misery; the good news is there is no shortage of company there.It is tough to find satisfaction, but easy to find greed on your pursuit.To not suffer from the greed for results, the mind needs to seize to be greedy first.A greed for possession never leads to a sufficiency of possession, just as a greed for money leads to a lack of appreciation of your true wealth.The insatiable appetite of greed leads from zero to infinity.No greed, equals, instant happiness.The greedy person cultivates an enemy whom he/

3 Basic Steps To Consider As A Value Investor by Manoj SharmaThere is surely no one way to spot, buy and profit from a value stock investment but the below should give you a basic and reasonably comprehensive guideline on what you need to pay attention to in your decision making process. The idea of course is to look at it as though you are buying into a business for the long term.1) Start by Checking Out The Prospective Company's...Historical Performance, Annual Growth Rate, Market Penetration Rates, Market Adoption, Business Strategies and so on through its Reports, Balance Sheets, Income and Cash Flows StatementsPresent Perceived / Known Brand Value, Competitive Advantages, Earnings Per Share & Overall ProfitabilityFuture Expected, Projected and Analyzed Growth Potential and see if they are favourable to you as you endeavour to gain a good grasp on its business.2) Weight Out The Prospective Company's...Short Term and Long Term DebtsAsset to Liability RatioReturn on EquityEarnings

Extracts from The World Wealth Report 2007 and Comments by Manoj SharmaThe following are extracts from The World Wealth Report 2007 by Capgemini and Merrill Lynch, a report I put a lot of credence in. The report is in italics with my thoughts and comments in bold thereafter.High Net Worth Individual Financial Wealth Expectation"High Net Worth Individual Financial Wealth is expected to reach US$51.6 trillion by 2011, growing at an annual rate of 6.8%."This is likely to meet its mark regardless of whichever way the global economy might progress.Asia Pacific"In Asia-Pacific, the overall High Net Worth Individual population grew by 8.6% in 2006, up from 7.3% in 2005. The region's wealth grew by 10.5% in the same period. The High Net Worth Individual population of Singapore, Indonesia and Taiwan all enjoyed double-digit growth in 2006; India and China also posted significant gains. Market capitalization grew in select geographies - in China, for example. However, Japan's growth, despite

Some Truisms of Wise Investments by Manoj SharmaA wise and profitable investment strategy requires a strong financial quotient and a stronger emotional quotient to adjust the investment strategy without it breaking down in the face of fear, greed and ego.The more erratic market conditions are the greater the opportunities that lie in it, as the more other people's financial and emotional quotients become stretched past their competency levels.Any wise investment should be looked at as a compounded ownership of that investment for the long term. And it is up to you to remain vigilant as to your investment.All investment markets shift from unrealistic to realistic to unrealistic and will continue to do so in a general upward climb, ceteris paribus. The wise investor keep abreast through gaining knowledge and understanding there is a time for everything.Wise investments are made profitable by buying from emotional pessimists and selling to emotional optimists.Even people with the highest

To Be A Wildly Successful Team by Manoj SharmaTo be a wildly successful team requires a whole lot, but one set of principles always hold true if a team is to create fabulous results. And that set of principles are...1) Everybody needs to dive in with both feet with no other considerations. Most people are never willing to do this and that is why most teams never (and in truth simply cannot) produce outstanding results. The moment even an iota of anybody is not fully there, be it in the name of security, survival or other issues and commitments there is a significant leakage of energy. This automatically takes away from the chance of excellence and leads to the stench of averageness to be found in teams, everyday and everywhere.2) You should not be overly concerned about the viability of the end-product at the start. It is rare for the end-product at the start to be so. Most people are too concern about the end product from the start, and are furthermore usually waiting for someone to h

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 18 - HAPPINESS - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...Happiness is difficult to pin down as it lies in the paradox of contentment. Happiness is short-lived without contentment and happiness is also short-lived with contentment.Happiness can be experienced in hitting the target, missing the target and on the path towards the target. If you are not happy on the path, you are certainly unlikely to be happy in missing the target and even more unlikely to remain happy after hitting the target. Happiness while there, would have escaped you.Unhappiness is destroyed by happiness, and happiness is best experienced through creating happiness for others.If in the interest of your happiness you create unhappiness for others, you happiness shall soon leave you. Observe this from your own experience.True happiness like everything else of real value is uncovered through knowledge and wisdom.Lasting freedom is the ultimate experience of happiness.To no

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 16 - THOUGHTS - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...As your thoughts, so arises your reality.Thinking things afresh is far rarer that you can imagine.When you allow doubts to cloud clear thoughts, the doubts create their own doubts.Past thinking is by its nature at conflict with future thinking and the preventer of new realities.There is no future, there is only a future being created now. So lets call it the future now. What you create now is your future now. This is true for individuals, teams, organizations, communities, nations and the world as a whole. You cannot be experiencing a problem and be creating a future now at the same time because there can only be one predominant thought.The further and more expansively you propel your thoughts the more problems you clear away on your path through creating a future now.Your thoughts are prone to wondering, you are not born with a still mind. A clear future now demands a clear, still an

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 15 - SUFFERING - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...Any resistance to people, ideas, circumstances and situations either creates or leads to your suffering.The root of your suffering can always be traced back to your thoughts & non-thoughts, your words & non-words, your actions and non-actions, your results and non-results.Any suffering you may face from having made the right choice is either a suffering of the ego (which is great for you, once you are aware of it, accept it, acknowledge your role in it and take action to achieve a different outcome) or a temporary physical discomfort (which too will pass). So you lose nothing from making the right choice regardless of how difficult it is and how tough the consequences may seem.Choosing to makes choices to prevent your suffering, with a lack of awareness or a deliberate blindsiding of the impact of your choice on the suffering of others is to promote your eventual suffering too.Su

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 14 - POSSESSIONS - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...You actually own nothing in the physical world. You came with nothing, you will leave with nothing. Everything is just passing through. Fully and truly appreciate this point.The greater your desire for possessions the greater your attraction of possessions. The greater your attraction of possessions the greater likelihood of your attachment to your possessions. The greater your attachment to your possessions, the greater your inability to detachment from your possessions. The greater your inability to detach from your possession. The greater your suffering. These tendencies takes a lifetime to appreciate, build up and destroy. Attachment and detachment from the start is the key and it is tougher than you might imagine. Therefore the need to start right now.Master your possessions by converting them into contributions or forever be a slave to your possessions.Your possessions are a

THE WISDOM OF THE AGES 13 - CONDUCT - by MANOJ SHARMAContemplate the following and make sense of it...If you devote yourself to live in the most beneficial way you know how, for the greatest good of humanity, for the longest time possible and educate others to do the same, you can only be moving in the right long term pleasurable general direction, regardless of short term painful fluctuations.A reputation for trust takes a lifetime to build an an instant to destroy. Likewise, we would all like a reputation for generosity and would preferably like to buy it cheap.It can be argued that fear-free, desire-free, ego-free conduct is the riskiest to develop. It can also be argued that it is quite possibly the most rewarding too.If every past attempt at improving your conduct has failed you, take on leadership, put yourself in public life and become recognizable. You will leave yourself no choice but to steadily improve your conduct or face the consequences of your choices and causes.The ave

3 BASIC THINGS PEOPLE DESIRE FROM THEIR LEADERS by MANOJ SHARMALeadership today is a broad area with multiple definitions and an infinite number of reinterpretations based on the lives of the great leaders of all time. At its absolute core leadership is the ability to influence and is determined by followership. This is self evident and uniform across the board.The question that really needs to be asked is, "What do people desire from their leaders today and how can you develop these traits to enhance your Primary Leadership (leadership with yourself), Secondary Leadership (leadership with others) and Tertiary Leadership (leadership with leaders) ability?"The 3 points below will give you some indication that will serve as a great starting point for you, your teams and your organization.VisionA human being without a vision is akin to a ship in the ocean without a Captain - deadwood floating directionlessly, endlessly.Vision is the ability to assimilate a plethora of information, separat
