one can act excellently.”

Aristotle

 Nicomachean Ethics

What you say and what you do...

“Find congruency between what you say

and what you do. As they say, as powerful

as words are, actions can sometimes speak

louder still.”

Malti Bhojwani

Child with no name

"Do not say, “It is morning,” and dismiss it

with a name of yesterday. See it for the first

time as a new-born child that has no name."

look to the chain of command. Disasters are mostly

"Perfection of wisdom results in the perfection of

action and its effects. Wisdom will bring about

the best results with the most benefits for

oneself and others".

Yoghic wisdom

See it through!

When you’re up against a trouble,

Meet it squarely, face to face;

Lift your chin and set your shoulders,

Plant your feet and take a brace.

When it’s vain to try to dodge it,

Do the best that you can do;

You may fail, but you may conquer,

See it through!

Black may be the clouds about you

And your future may seem grim,

But don’t let your nerve desert you;

Keep yourself in fighting trim.

If the worst is bound to happen,

Spite of all that you can do,

Running from it will not save you,

See it through!

Even hope may seem but futile,

When with troubles you’re beset,

But remember you are facing

Just what other men have met.

You may fail, but fall still fighting;

Don’t give up, whate’er you do;

Eyes front, head high to the finish.

See it through!
