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."

The essential points of these astute observations of Dr Maxwell Maltz are, at least from my perspective:

- to stay calm, serene, and always in command of yourself;

- to stay true to your self image of being engineered as a goal-seeking and success mechanism, just as Dr Maltz put it; [also, not forgetting the words of wisdom from Zig Ziglar:

"You were designed for accomplishment, engineered for success, and endowed with the seeds of greatness."

- to pause and reflect, contemplate and introspect about what has happened;

- to reset, re-adjust, re-start and re-focus on the next move;

- to draw inspiration from the Chinese phrase for "crisis": 危机 (pronounced as "wéijī") ~ interestingly, the first part stands for danger; the other part for opportunity.

So in a crisis, just be aware of the danger – but recognize - and seize - the opportunity!

- to draw lessons from Henry Ford's elegant words of wisdom:

"Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently."
