"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle."

Steve Jobs gave an interview in "60 minutes" in 2003 in which he shared that his business model was inspired by The Beatles: "My model for business is The Beatles: They were four guys that kept each other's negative tendencies in check; they balanced each other. And the total was greater than the sum of the parts. Great things in business are not done by one person, they are done by a team of people."

[nannilam_balasubramanian]

The waves belong to the Ganges, not the Ganges to the waves
A man cannot realize God unless he gets rid of all such egotistic ideas
as ‘I am such an important man’ or ‘I am so and so’.
Level the mound of ‘I’ to the ground by dissolving it with tears of devotion.

Shri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa

Simplifying a complex task is
more difficult than people can ever imagine!
That is why all great things are simple
