4 Idiots

What 3 idiots symbolises is 3 individuals who don't understand the real reason why they are doing what they are doing in there lives. They finally awaken to making their avocation as their vocation. Hence, the 4 idiots of real life are Mark Zuckerberg, Shaimak Davar, M.F.Hussain and Anish kapoor.

Zuckerberg is someone who made his college project into a world renowned phenomenon. A phenomenon which has 500 million ardent followers. A medium which in now connecting the millions of people to each other and the brands to their followers. Facebook has become a cult of its own. It represents what sheer innovation and technical know-how could lead to. A company which has been valued by dealbook to be worth more than the media giants like Warner Bros., and internet majors like yahoo!. The company looks promising enough for the future as well, because Goldman Sachs finds it worthy enough to invest 50 billion dollars. All this because the idiot had the guts to believe that he could make his avocation into a sustainable and profitable enterprise.

Shaimak Davar would have sounded silly when he went to learn contemporary dancing as a profession. As one of India's first contemporary jazz dancers he faced lot challenges, often being questioned about his masculinity. But he answered all his critics by winning the National Award for Choreography in 1999 and since then has become one of India's leading Choreographer.

M.F.Hussain and Anish Kapoor both represent art in its different form. One being a renowned painter and the other a sculpture. Both are masters of their arts but it takes a lot to make mordern art and sculpturing your daily job. These guys did just that and that is what makes them the best in their fields. But it isn't a job to them its something which they love doing.

Idiots as they all were, they are at the top of their fields and have now become inspirations for hundreds of other people to follow.
"Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life."

He who knows how to be Poor knows Everything

In today's materialistic world, being poor is the worst thing that can happen to you. Being educated, being moralistic and being principled amount to almost nothing if you are poor. There are no opportunities to come out of that quagmire. Someone who has been through this and has somehow overcome the mountain of difficulties, would possess incredible amounts of determination, will and belief in his ability. Such talent is rare but often results in producing the greats. Being poor teaches you time management, how to make the most of your time to survive. It teaches you adaptability, how to adjust to the extremes of living conditions. It pushes you to extend your boundries and grow farther. It makes you emotionally and mentally strong. Someone who has been facing defeat after defeat but still gets up everytime to face adds so many facets to his personality. You learn only from your mistakes. If you have never faced defeat, it would be hard to survive. To relate to my own l

Belief in Virtue is more important than Virtue itself

Just pause for a second from your daily life. The life that you are so desperately trying to organise, to make worthy, to make grand. The future plans that you are putting together, the aspiration and the fantasies; put them aside and think about this- "We spend a lot of time trying to organize the world, we build clocks and calendars and we try to predict the weather but what part of our life is truly under our control. What if we choose to exist purely in our reality of our own making, does that render us insane. If that does, isn't that better than a life of despair?" Rationality and irrationality is purely subjective. Also what's better is only a matter of how deeply you apply your thoughts to it. If being happy and content is all that you want in life, then isn't living an insane life in a world of your own, the perfect thing for you. The problem with us is that we don't know what we actually want, and when we do, we hate to accept them and instead

India has the largest pool of talented manpower but very few innovations and patented products.

Ancient India was the hub of learning and innovation. India had scholars like Aryabhatta, Charak, Chanakya, and many others. But, with time, that zeal for innovation has faded away due to the constant lack of encouragement from the whole system. Ancient India gave zero to the world, invented chess, developed ayurveda but today not many discoveries take place in India. This lack of innovation is the result of the systemic failure of our society. From school to college to workplace, we are taught and tamed into following the set rules. We are taught to be followers and any attempt to think freely is viewed as dissent. Our society has closed itself to any criticism or corrective evolution. This was quite evident when we saw the introduction of Genetically Modified seeds in India. Every technology has its pros and cons, and we need to encourage the spirit of research and innovation to increase the pros and limit the cons but an outright opposition to anything new will be a hindrance
