FROM DILIP MUKERJEA

"Genius is in-born, may it never be still-born."

"Oysters, irritated by grains of sand, give birth to pearls. Brains, irritated by curiosity, give birth to ideas."

"Brainpower is the bridge to the future; it is what transports you from wishful thinking to willful doing."

"Unless you keep learning & growing, the status quo has no status."

GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE ABOUT THE FUTURE!


That's right!

In fact, this nice quote of technology futurist Daniel Burrus reminds me vividly of what author-filmmaker-futurist Joel Arthur Barker has said back in the nineties:


"It is the future where our greatest leverage is. We can't change the past, although, if we are smart, we learn from it.

Things happen in only one place - the present, and usually we react to those events.

The space of time in the present is too slim to allow for much more.

It is in the yet-to-be, the future, and only there, where we have the time to prepare for the present."
