VALUE OF INDIAN IDEAS AND NEW CHANGES:
Very long time ago India was one of the most “advanced” society in the world. With change of times and with changed definitions of advancements, India became a slave, “third world country” and with lot of poverty. Recently, India became independent of British slavery and now it is catching up with the new “advanced” world.
Now in the advanced word also, India is being recognized as developing country. The old saying that “nothing succeeds like success” has started working for India. Now even the very old ideas and values which were developed in India have started becoming important for the advanced world.
From all this I want to make following suggestions for you:
In this period of time, the education you are receiving in India makes you lot more capable of handling the technical problems of your subjects as compared to the students studying in “western countries”.
The very very old ideas of honesty, truthfulness, hardworking etc have still the same importance as they had, when they were developed.
With today’s technology, you have access to most of the information being used or developed in the world. You can learn not only about the individuals and societies in India, but you can learn about most of the world. Even though there is so much information available, you still have to use your own mind in deciding what is good for you.
During my frequent travels, I have noticed the very fast rate of progress in India. With this rate of progress, I have also noticed that gradually more persons are making more money. This progress is bringing India towards advanced countries of the world. My wishful thinking is that with these advancements, you should still give importance to honesty, truthfulness, hardworking and not being selfish.
Please remember that when you become a successful professional, your hard work played important role. At the same time, please remember that apart from your hard work, there are many other factors which played different roles in your success. When you see a person who is not as successful as you are, please do not blame him or her. There are so many factors which played parts in your success, which may not have played in the life of the other person. This concept will help you in staying a better and less selfish person.

YOUR OPINION ABOUT YOU:
YOUR OPINION ABOUT YOU:
Are you hard working? Are you honest? Are you successful? Are you going in the right direction? Did you act appropriately?
The best judge to all such questions is YOU. It is very important that you should keep evaluating yourself. What “others” think of you is of lesser importance, because they can not know you as well as you know yourself. You should use other’s opinion just to give you additional ideas to think about, but please neither let opinion of others let you down or pump you up.
Here, another point can be considered. Some times, when you are involved in your own thinking, you may miss out some important points about yourself and opinion from others can be helpful. In this regard, it is ok to develop some scale of importance you give to other’s opinion. If in your judgment the other person is your well wisher, the person knows you quite well, the person has adequate knowledge about the subject, and similar other factors can be used to develop the amount of importance you should give to the opinion of others.
After taking every thing into account, please understand that whatever you think of yourself is the most important in your life and not what others think of you.

SOME THING TO LOOK FORWARD TO:
ALWAYS HAVE SOME THING TO LOOK FORWARD TO:
When you have some thing to look forward to, you will think and act with added energy. Even if what you are looking forward to is completely imaginary, it still will keep giving you added energy.
If you do not have any thing major to look forward to, try this: Use your imagination and find out what you like to do, where you want to go, whom you want to meet, … Then start evaluating how you should proceed to do what ever you planned for. You should not think there is any thing unobtainable. In my opinion, it is ok to try to strive at unobtainable. This way your mind will start planning and your body will start working towards some thing you want to reach at.
Here it is important to note that what ever you are looking forward to, you should not become obsessed with it, because the results are not in your hands.
