I started compiling some of the recent updates made by me on LinkedIn, and here is the collection. Enjoy!

Q. What does a crisis achieve? Ans. Three things. 1 - it tells you who your enemies are (by thoughts and in action), 2. it identifies the fence-sitters, and 3. it clearly brings out the loyalists in your life. An entrepreneur or professional who has only tasted success but faced no crisis has led a half-life, oblivious of the truth behind all the fawning and friendly faces.

Don't treat special privileges that your near-ones or company grant you, as your birth-right. Treat them as a great temporary boon from God. They may disappear any moment. Don't regret then. Be thankful while it lasted.

POWER TIP FOR FRESHERS : Anyone who is really good at MS-Excel is blessed with a booster attached to his/her career. A worthy investment.

If you work entirely in 'white', you soon get beaten blue and black by those who prefer working in 'black'. Ambiguous morality in money matters is considered disjoint from overall morality, in India. Everyone knows it, and everyone is happy pretending.

If you wish to have the combined thrill of a bungee jump, river rafting, mountain hiking, parajumping and a jungle trek, just become an entrepreneur in India. Daily delivery of all these guaranteed.

One bad apple is all you need to significantly slow down or retard the positive forward movement of any team. Positive members are like Protons. Negative like electrons. Weed them out as fast as possible. People very rarely can change their attitude - no matter what they may 'say' or 'promise'. Counsellings are usually a total waste with morons. Sad :)

POWER TIP FOR FRESHERS : Flexibility, tolerance and good listening ability are the 3 magic bullets a fresher can use to propel his/her career at top pace. Flexibilty - to do whatever work the situation demands (even if at variance with your profile or education), Tolerance - towards the time it takes for a raise or promotion to happen, and Good Listening Ability - to ensure you keep absorbing. My old students often tell me - "Sandeep sir, this was one power tip that helped immensely in the first job!"
Will keep posting more from time to time!

First question what crises achieve, I have faced it, and I must say it has helped me to clearly identify loyalists(Which are just too few). And it comes as a shock to experience it for the very first time.
MS-Excel, superb tip in fact I was glad to learn at PROTON and advance version learning by self now, as it the need to stay in corporate.
Tip for HR professionals: Amazing! Fake resumes, this is one of the biggest challenge an HR faces today.In IT, 1 out of 5 resumes is fake (source economic times). I have been sailing in this boat day in and out.

Thank you Sir for sharing power tips.
Hello Sir
The first update - a powerful thought - not directly related but reminds of Ayn Rand's philosophy on Objectivism, especially the lines she said during her talk show with Tom Snyder - "The purpose of life is life itself." "The pursuit of man's happiness is the highest moral purpose of his life." "When you die, you're gone. This is it - just one life - you were not there before your birth & you'll not be there after your death to see what happens."
Also, it's connected to Indian Spiritualism when it says of disconnection from material permanence & participation in life whole-heartedly.
It’s interesting to see the relevance of such wonderful thoughts that warms up people to act – the thoughts that carry a legacy of similar or different beliefs from various schools of thought & retain permanent value in transient nature of life, long after men die.
