It is not the flashy cars which one drives
It is not the five star restaurants where one dines
It is not the expensive mobiles
It is not the designer wear
.........................which make up one's personality

A personality is defined by what your thoughts are when you are alone. That is where you see your own self, defines the real character of a person.

The inspiring story behind Jack Ma, Chairman of Alibaba.com



Jack Ma created history yesterday when Alibaba turned out to be the biggest IPO ever in US by raising over $ 20 billion and giving it a valuation of over $ 160 billion

Jack Ma: Before I founded Alibaba, I invited 24 friends to my house to discuss the business opportunity. After discussing for a full two hours, they were still confused — I have to say that I may not have put myself across in a clear manner manner then. The verdict: 23 out of the 24 people in the room told me to drop the idea, for a multitude of reasons, such as: ‘you do not know anything about the internet, and more prominently, you do not have the start-up capital for this’ etc etc.

There was only one friend (who was working in a bank then) who told me, “If you want to do it, just try it. If things don’t work out the way you expected it to, you can always revert back to what you were doing before.” I pondered upon this for one night, and by the next morning, I decided I would do it anyway, even if all of the 24 people opposed the idea.

When I first started Alibaba, I was immediately met with strong opposition from family and friends. Looking back, I realised that the biggest driving force for me then was not my confidence in the Internet and the potential it held, but more of this: “No matter what one does, regardless of failure or success, the experience is a form of success in itself.” You have got to keep trying, and if it doesn’t work, you always can revert back to what you were doing before.

As with this quote by T.E. Lawrence – “All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream in the dark recesses of the night awake in the day to find all was vanity. But the dreamers of day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, and make it possible.”

Jack Ma: People lose out in life because of these 4 reasons:

1) Being myopic to opportunity
2) Looking down on opportunities
3) Lacking understanding
4) Failing to act quickly enough

You are poor because you have no ambition.

Ambition is living a life of great ideals; a magnificent goal in life that must be realized.

In this world, there are things that are deemed unfathomable, but there is nothing in this world that cannot be done.

The depth of one’s ambition determines the potential of one’ future.

It is a blatant lie when any trader says , I do not trade for Money.

Let us face the truth.Money is the means for achieving everything.

Read some interesting stuff on Forbes website.

"It is better to sit and cry in a BMW , than on a bicycle."

"How many millionaires do you know who have become wealthy by investing in savings accounts? I rest my case. –Robert G. Allen"

"It’s not how much money you make, but how much money you keep, how hard it works for you, and how many generations you keep it for. –Robert Kiyosaki"


Finally a Quote that sums everything.

Since you alone are responsible for your thoughts, only you can change them. You will want to change them when you realize that each thought creates according to its own nature. Remember that the law works at all times and that you are always demonstrating according to the kind of thoughts you habitually entertain. Therefore, start now to think only those thoughts that will bring you health and happiness.
