Many of us give little attention to ‘’ minutes ‘’ we have in a day.
A minute is a vital instrument for success, the way you spend your time will eventually determine what you have by the end the year. Minutes are more like pennies, the more pennies you put together the more dollars you accumulate.
In a day we have 24hrs and 1440 minutes, but only one single minute can change your life forever. Okay let’s get an example. If you have unprotected sex with an HIV/AIDS infected person with in one minute you will be a victim too. So this minute will have defined all the other hours you’re going to spend on earth.
According to my experience, every achievement I have acquired in the past 25 years is based on respecting a minute.
So how can a minute become very important towards your success? The answer is very simple, ‘’decision’’. To make a decision takes a minute, to act on that decision takes a minute too , hence making one minute very important towards success.
Ask you’re self, why some people earn 50 lacs per year while others earn 5 lacs per year. It’s because these people spend their minutes differently. And what’s amazing the one who earns 5 lacs a year works a lot more than the one who earns 50 lacs a year.
In my profession all these small things play a very vital role. My latest project is an online classifieds and yellow pages. Now we all know the importance of these two things for any business. Placing an advertisement in any of the two takes not more than 5 minutes. Am meeting atleast 5% of the advertisers myself so that i will know what people expect more from such services.
Lemme give you an example of how few people waste others time. We fixed an appointment with one of the doctors who showed interest in placing the advertisement in our yellow pages. This particular doctor gave me the appointment for 17:30 hrs PRECISE…. but he came to his own clinic at 1800 hrs… now… i know doctors are pretty busy people. To finish a five minutes discussion he took over 150 minutes (not because we were discussing but he was busy in handling his patients, mind you they were not serious cases, they could have waited). By now I had wasted my precious 180 minutes. We had to schedule the meeting for the next day as he didn’t had the photographs for the advertisement. DAMN.. Why the hell then u wasted my time?
Respecting his profession I excused him for that… see am so generous 
As per appointment I reached his clinic at 0930 hrs sharp but he didnt showed up till 10 am. Finally after giving him a call and being adviced to sit in his clinic for few more minutes i waited for an hour but he didn’t turn up… NOW… I called him once again and he said that he was so busy but he took out time to leave from his another clinic to meet me but for another case he had to return back, in the meanwhile he lost business from one patient. Instead of accepting his own fault he blamed me for his business loss. I would have shown him the loss that I made in 180+90=270 minutes, if he was sensible or responsible enough.
I meet atlest 5 new people everyday but most of them work to earn for themselves, but I invest the same amount of time on my services which give earning potential to thousands of our subscribers. So, who’s time is more costly, Mine Or Theirs?
This topic is not actually about my or your time. It’s about OUR time. The way we manage our time will make the whole difference.

Being in internet based business simply means owning multiple websites. Being a web developer means buying even more domains and hosting accounts. Being in web development business for over 10 years means endless amount of domains, hosting accounts, ISP, and others.
After reviewing all the factors that a ISP (internet service provider) must have I decided that the Slowest ISP Award Goes to Net4India. The company claims to provide domain names and hosting accounts at cheapest rate, which is a total lie (Try comparing the prices with your favourite service provider, if it is not Net4).
Secondly in the cyber age you have to wait days to book a domain or creating a hosting account (I have 3 major experiences before and one just now).
I have a partners account with Net4 and I usually have to keep some balance with them in the cyber wallet, this time they have not credited my account even after 3 days of paying them and lost a client due to their slower then turtle speed.
I have N number of reasons to honour them with this award… So once again I declare ” Slowest ISP Award Goes to….”

Today, Every political party, every NGO, every educational institution, and every social body is shouting “SAVE THE PLANET”. But… do we have the capacity even to save ourself?
Was reading the book “Winner stands alone” by my favorite author Mr. Paulo Coelho, in one of the chapters he raised the same topic with similar approach and gave a gravity to my theory that “We are not capable of saving even ourselves, but the planet has the power and abilities to save itself and destroy us at the same time”.
In his blog the author says:
“For me its quite cynical because, at the end of the day, if we dont take care of the planet it will destroy us. But we put ourselves in a position that we are saving something and this may be good for our ego but it is ultimately unrealistic. If we dont care of the planet, we will be destroyed not the planet.“
I agree with him up to certain point but after that i think we can save ourself.
A basic science says “to every effect there is a cause”. We are talking about a lot more serious EFFECT. Effect that is going to kill us all, not just we humans but also a lot more species.
Here the cause is not something that started yesterday, but it was a phenomenon that started thousands of years back by cutting trees and making space for we humans to share the land. The loss that has been done in thousands of years cant be undone in a year, a decade or even a century. We should have thought about this at least a few hundred years back so that we have a little bit more time to live on.
The end is already begin. Heavy snowfall in the regions where snowfall was never there, tsunami, frequent earthquakes, floods, and many more ways of mass destruction that only the planet can cause. We are having a nuclear race to destroy others but have we developed any armor or weapon to defend ourselves?
This is a open discussion and I wish to invite all humans to take part in it.

Osama destroyed twin towers in US and as a revenge Obama is still destroying Afghanistan. Does he really want to hit Osama or the reason is something else? History says that America never does anything for just one reason.
Destroyed Cuba to eradicate some mafias and gained control over tobacco, destroyed Iraq to get cheap oil, destroyed Vietnam, destroyed Bosnia and Herzegovina, and now Afghanistan.
Afghanistan
A narco-superpower, Afghanistan exports more than 90 per cent of the world’s opium, the raw material for the $65bn (€46bn, £40bn) global heroin industry. Drug money fuels the Taliban insurgency and the government corruption that saps Nato’s ability to fight it. Concern over its impact on the west’s war effort has overshadowed the suffering of a generation of addicts spawned by cheap highs, poverty and upheaval. (According to Financial Times)
Whether Osama lives or dies opium will be grown. Who will take it?
International records indicate that American mafia mainly deals in it along with arms and ammunition. Indirectly Obama is helping the mafia and directly killing thousands of afghans.
American attacks have already killed over 100 times that were killed in WTC. Osama has a limited territory and man power but Obama thinks of himself as the king of the world.
So who is the biggest terrorist? Its really an insult to the Nobel Peace Prize to be in the hands of the devils advocate who is a mass murderer.
Comments are welcome

Am not able to update this blog regularly as my internet provider Tata Indicom is busy making money by passing wrong informations through their junkhead call center executives. These people are interested more in making money by wrong ways instead of providing services that they promise.
If I dont get proper reply n service in next ten days then am going to take them to the court. Searching for some better service provider in the meantime
