To not show what you are not is the wisest thing to do, when you are sitting across the table to a man who can easily make out that you are simply projecting an image of yours that does not belong to you. But when you do not know the person is someone who could actually catch you red-handed while you are trying to neatly knit a virtual image of yours, what should you do? They say it's important that you sometimes show what you are not and you would eventually become what you showed!
That's where the thin line comes into picture! "Sow What you will be and are not, not Show what you will be that you are not!" One needs to know this thin line.
Help the other person believe in your potential to become what is needed but you are not, and assure that you would be with enough proofs of times when it has happened, that you have not had certain qualities and have developed just in time when required.
The reason I share this is - Big business losses and trust losses occur when this thin line is ignored. A totally detailed version of this is for sure available in the book - "Thin Lines" :)
Sujit Lalwani
PS: Believe in making things happen with what you have, and developing all that you dont have!

Love is deep!!!! - deep below the beds of anger, frustration & the like at times...
There are times in life when pain simply needs to be gulped down the throat. You may not have been wrong, not have erred, but still the world seems to accuse you of the crime you never did and pass you blames you never deserved. World, here I say, refers to the people who mean the world to you, for, You or I would not care what rest of the world has to say anyway. At such moments just tell yourself, the frustration of theirs was killed and converted into smooth flow of crystals from your eyes, cleansing their heart and mind.
The dislike towards you might be killing, bear it for a while, as they mean the world to you is what you claim, and this is very little extra mile to ensure their smile. The ability of yours to simply gulp down the words that slip of their tongues could only result in a cleansed heart of theirs, void of any negatives, after which all that remains is love and affection. The love that, if seen, you can jump with joy, else assumptions are a definite solace.
They mean not to kill you, they mean to protect their love for you, and the want to release all of it, makes them shoot you to death, as all love is but hidden underneath the sheet of anger, frustration and hatred towards you. Hence there are times in life you have to simply...
Silenced you are! by the astonishing levels of anger and hatred that you believe you never were the reason for, they look at you with the eyes that have confirmed that you are the criminal worthy of being accused, and beyond that moment every act of yours is something they abhor.
Remember they still are the people who mean the world to you, and we all know that such people are very few. For, all that they have done for you, this fit of anger towards you definitely comes to you as really new. But as time goes by, as the things sink in deep, some alterations remain and some feelings go awry, few return their normal place while a new sunshine the nature throws to you yet again.
The ultimate truth lies here. The world comes back to the same position every 24 hours. The loved ones come back to you within the periodic cycle set. For, that's love! rest is all but an illusion.
What's even beyond is - 'all is temporary'. "Live till you live. Love till you live." ~Sujit Lalwani
Live & Let live is right. But LOVE & Let LOVE prevail!!! Don't kill it for a million tears~!
This prose might be vague! It gets clearer as life moves on. Read it at a later stage yet again. Explore the depth of it more than the last time, each time you read.

Sujit Lalwani in the FINALs of YOUR BIG YEAR Competition. INDIAN One YOUNG WORLD Ambassador to GO GLOBAL! VOTE!!!
(The greatest support you all can be is to be pass this note as many as you can! Thanks a TON for the support. Do post it on your facebook wall as well)
I am glad to share this with you, that I am giving my best to follow the footsteps of people who have brought Glory, fame & name humanity all over the globe. I am on the path to add feathers to the cap of Humanity & my Nation.
I have my way of doing it and have already done some sizable work from my side, as I now turn 25 in about a couple of months. MY biography is available for download at www.iuindia.com/ourspeakers.php.
Currently I am participating in a GLOBAL COMPETITION called YOUR BIG YEAR. A competition which has gained overnight recognition from the BEST & ELITE of the WORLD. The winners of this would be awarded a prize of travel to 22 countries covering 5 continents. The COMPANY Smaller Earth (www.smallerearth.com) engages in this. The winner is given an experience of leadership through experience, which shall set his momentum for the rest of the life.
Last Year's winner was MICHAEL TEOH from MALAYSIA. You can google him out, to see what he has gone on to become today. As the turn comes this year, It's a matter of pride & prestige to know that an INDIAN Sujit Lalwani (You can google me out as well) Ranks amongst the only chosen 111 Stage 2 finalists. Now 51 of them are competing for TOP position which would be through a procedure of voting.
The winner in this would attend the GLOBAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP CONGRESS in LIVERPOOL. (http://gec.unleashingideas.org/) Which is expected to be attended by top brass of the world.
One chance for us to shine on the GLOBE. The voting procedure is simple & given in simple steps on www.iuindia.com.
