They said don’t try to fly. They said it again and again.…….
When I am alone, I get over confident. And when I get over confident – u guessed it right – I mess up badly. And that’s what happening with me from quite some time now. When I left my partnership in Vista – it was purely my decision. When asked about my next plans, I said some thing like – “there are thousands of opportunities around. I just need to grab some. I also have plans to start an eCommerce company. I ll b developing an Automated Sales Management System and will target foreign clients and exporters.” Sounds impressive? Well, it took only few seconds to say this damn statement and extremely long 6 months to develop that in realty (beta version yet). And no good signs on marketing yet...I have encountered three type of people while reaching this first stage...Those who do not care what I achieve or loose...Those who have helped or motivated me to reach this first stage...and those who offered me help and made me dependent on them and finally, DISAPPEARED.....
They said don’t try to fly. They said it again and again…They laugh at me now….
I am a very spiritual person… Mind you, spiritual but not religious… I am a strict follower of god but also an Alcohol lover… I don’t really care about Laws – I am not 25 but I drink which my government doesn’t allow and my parents don’t expect! Usually I don’t mind others doing the same….”Usually” because they seem grown up and mature.. I have seen guys of around 12 yrs old….no… wait…. I have seen children of around 12 yrs old drinking in public.. teasing girls as much as double of their age(atleast). And messing around all over… I have problem with this! But I cant stop them.. after all they are breaking law as much as I am, except I don’t do eve teasing.
Lets forget about law and talk about ethics now? Is it ethically right for the shop keeper to sell that alcohol to those kids? Big NOO! And is it ethically right for the same shopkeeper to sell that alcohol to me? I am speechless. Thoughtless…
This wine shop along with one more wine shop is located between a11-12 commercial buildings. My office is inside one of these 12 buildings giving me enough opportunities to observe the attachment of people (99.99%) towards these two shops even if they don’t drink. But some thing is so special about these shops that even out of 5000 people, may b more, working in this area don’t make complaints or oppose these shops to be located within the radius of 10 meters from a small temple… Not sure if its true but I heard that there cant be any wine shop within 100 meters of a temple or some thing…. Interestingly, the biggest donation in the temple comes from these two shops. J . obvious reasons….
May I have observed these shops earlier, I could have thought of doing a different business with recurring income.. Guess what? Recycling of beer and other alcohol bottles… it’s a big business here with at least 60 children (not even aged 12) engaged in this profession already… if u want to learn marketing or PR skills, I bet u – they can teach better than our college professors. How? Check out –
As soon as u made ur purchase and comes out of shop, few little guys or in worst case little girls will be offering you bottle openers. You get choice to choose the best opener because of competition and soon they will break the seal for you followed by a quick dry cleaning of your bottle (you may loose the grip of bottle if its too wet). The clothes they use to clean your bottle is 10000 times cleaner than their own clothes. Not just this, these kids will keep all beggars away from you until you are drinking – giving you peaceful drinking environment! Oh, r u feeling to smoke but forget to buy cigarettes or matchbox? Don’t panic, these kids provide full fledged service until u r enjoying ur drink. Are you with your girl friend and looking for some privacy? Just ask for help and they can take u to the hell of places(heaven for couples) where they will guard your privacy for few more extra bucks..Or if u r too shy to ask about this, they ll let u know about it… Sounds astounding? Well, all these services come in exchange of your empty bottle! Not a bad deal eh?
It is not that I liked how these kids are making money. But I m happy at least they r not begging with dirty and already used band aids all around or almost naked to earn their living. They have become business minded.. They are service oriented… I usually give few one rupee candies to few kids in exchange of no service but a smile… But I will never give them money – not even a rupee… or else, they ll stay beggars throughout their life…
They said don’t try to fly. They said it again and again…They laughed at me….They should see these kids and learn that there are actually thousands of opportunities around, just need to grab the right one…have patience and c the world changing. or if u don’t have patience, stop laughing at least because how much distance u may have covered, journey to road side never ends....!
