Rules of Life

Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.

Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2: The world doesn't care about your
self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it’s not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters.. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

Sachins Emotional Speech

"Friends please settle down, I'll get more emotional!
It's hard to believe my wonderful journey is coming
to an end.
I've a list of names to thank. The first is my father,
who passed away in 1999. Without his guidance I
wouldn't be standing in front of you. he said 'chase
your dreams, don't give up, the path will be difficult.'
I miss him today. My mom, I don't know how she
managed a naughty child like me. She just prayed and
prayed from the day I started playing the game. For
four years I stayed with my uncle and aunt when in
school, they treated me like their own son. My eldest
brother Nitin doesn't like to talk ,much but he said,
whatever you do, I know you will give 100%. My first
cricket bat was presented to me by my sister Savita.
She still continues to fast while I bat. Ajit my
brother - We have lived this dream together, he
sacrificed his career for me, he took me to Achrekar
sir first. Even last night he called me to discuss my
dismissal. Even when I'm not playing we will still be
discussing technique. If that hadn't happened, I
would have been a lesser cricketer.
"The most beautiful thing happened to me when I met
Anjali in 1990. I know that being a doctor there was
a big career in front of her. But she decides that I
should continue playing and she took care of the
children. Thanks for bearing with me for all the
nonsense I've said (Anjali wipes tears). Then the two
precious diamonds of my life Sara and Arjun. I've
missed out on several birthdays, holidays. I know for
14-16 years I've not spent enough time with you. But
I promise you I will spend the next 16.
"My inlaws - I've discussed several things with them.
The most important thing they did was allow me to
marry Anjali. In the last 24 years my friends have
made terrific contributions. They have been with me
while I was stressed. They have been with me even at
3am when I was injured. Thanks for being there for
me.
"My career started when I was 11. I was extremely
delighted to see Achrekar sir in the stands. I used to
ride on his scooter and play two matches a day. Sir
took me along to make sure I played. On a lighter
note, Sir never said 'well played' because he didn't
want me to be complacent. You can push your luck
now, Sir, since I'm not playing cricker anymore.
"I started my career here in Mumbai. I remember
landing from NZ at 4am and playing a Ranji game the
next day. The BCCI was fantastic from my debut.
Thanks to the selectors. You were right with me
making sure my treatment was taken care of.
"Thanks to all the senior cricketers who have played
with me. We see on the screen Rahul, VVS, Sourav,
Anil who is not here. All the coaches. I know when MS
presented the 200th Test cap, I had a message to the
team - I said we are all so proud to be representing
the nation. I hope to continue to serve the nation
with dignity. I have full faith that you will serve the
country in the right spirit.
I will be failing in my duty if I didn't thank the
doctors who have kept me fit. Given the injuries I
have suffered. They have treated me in odd hours.
My dear friend the late Mark Mascarenhas. I miss
him. My current management team WSG, for
continuing what Mark has done. Someone who has
worked closely with me for 14 years is my friend
Vinay Nayudu.
"The media has backed me a lot, since my school days.
Even today. Thank you. Thanks to the photographers
for capturing those moments.
"I know my speech has become long. I want to thank
people who have flown in from different parts of the
world. I want to thank my fans from the bottom of
my heart. "Sachin, Sachin" will reverberate in my
years till I stop breathing."

Rolls Royce

One day during his visit to London, King Jai Singh was walking in casual dress in Bond Street. He saw a Rolls Royce showroom and went inside to inquire about the Price and Features etc of their cars.
Considering him a just another Poor Indian citizen, showroom salesmen insulted him and almost showed him the way out of the showroom. After this insult, King Jai Singh came back to his Hotel room and asked his servants to call the showroom that King of Alwar city is interested in purchasing their few Cars.

After few hours King reached the Rolls Royce showroom again but with his full astonishing royal manner and in his royal costume. Until he reached the showroom there was already red carpet on the floor and all the salesmen were bent with respect. The King purchased all the six cars that they had at showroom at that time and paid full amount with delivery costs.

After reaching India, King ordered municipal department to use all those six Rolls Royce cars for cleaning and transporting city’s waste. World’s number one Rolls Royce cars were being used for transportation of City’s waste, the news spread all over the world rapidly and the reputation of Rolls Royce Company was in drains.

Whenever someone used to boast in Europe or America that he owned a Rolls Royce, people used to laugh saying, “which one? The same that is used in India for carrying the waste of the City?”

Due to such reputation damages, sales of Rolls Royce dropped rapidly and revenue of company owners started falling down. Then they sent a Telegram to the king in India for apologies and requested to stop transportation of waste in Rolls Royce cars. Not only this but they also offered Six new cars to king free of cost.

When King Jai Singh observed that Rolls Royce has learnt a lesson and they are sorry for their mistakes, king stopped using those cars for carrying wastes.
