It's an issue that so many of us feel so vehemently about, but supposedly lack the courage to face it and so we end up doing the same thing to our children too. As a mother I am trying to keep this point in mind while as a lecturer I am trying to stike the balance between potential and accomplishment. I wish to forward this article to some of my business-management students. Will check back on this. Looking forward to more of such write-ups!!<BR/>REgards<BR/>Ms. BijuAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11293932759825709114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289342.post-1157312414044467812006-09-04T01:10:00.000+05:302006-09-04T01:10:00.000+05:30Thanks for dropping by at http://chutkimutki.blogs...Thanks for dropping by at http://chutkimutki.blogspot.com.Nice post, Pradeep.

This is to have succeeded! <br />This is what i can say about success. nice bloggin...Kiranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00142890320149060268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289342.post-1111000331144542342005-03-17T00:42:00.000+05:302005-03-17T00:42:00.000+05:30Neelima,Teaching is such a noble profession.

One came to my house with a book of laminated sheets and started reading every page to me! "Do you think your daughter must be able to speak English like the Englishmen? Do you want her not to lag behind in the competitive world?" etc. When I refused to buy his product, he invited me for a "seminar" for which I would have to fork out Rs 1,000.<BR/>All MLM chaps have a identical way of getting on your nerves. They somehow assume that money is everything.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299168587920941642noreply@blogger.com
