Have you ever seen an employee with a well organized calendar?

Successful people are organized. They value their time. For them Time is Money.

Successful people know their priorities.

Successful people know the difference between Important Work and Urgent Work.

Successful people know what they really want in their life.

Successful people know where they are going in life.

Successful people don’t pay attention to gossips.

What do people worry about most?

Their job?
Their Spouse?
Their kids and their future?
The bills to be paid?

Well, the answer differs from person to person. What decides the worry is the factor that they think most about and what they value most.

Some people treat them as worries. And some treat them as challenges.

How many white cars you have seen on the road today? Does it mean that there are no white cars just because you didn’t notice them?

So when you give your goals that kind of priority, you can’t see even the challenges that comes and goes.

SET A GOAL. GO AND GET IT.

IIM Ahmedabad Students

Ahmedabad: At a time when the country is being rocked by a number of scams, some students of Indian Institute of Management-Ahmedabad have decided to launch a helpline on corruption to curb the menace.

A group of six IIM-A students proposed the idea of starting the helpline to former President A P J Abdul Kalam and IIM-A professor Anil Gupta, which was appreciated by them.

“When the students mooted the idea of starting a corruption helpline, I thought that the idea was excellent in present context when the situation in the country is such that common people think that their work cannot be done without giving bribes,” Gupta said.

The country was recently rocked by 2G spectrum scam, Commonwealth Games scam and Adarsh society scam which have brought the issue of corruption in focus.

New Delhi: A U.S. based consultant found that Indian scientists were more likely to cheat when reporting scientific results than scientists from other countries.

The Journal of Medical Ethics published that out of 50 academic papers related to the life sciences, 17 were withdrew, over the past 10 years. 34 percent of the papers were rejected as there was some kind of fraud or fake information in the papers. The papers had copy findings of other scientists, some papers had faked or made up theories and some were fudged from many findings.

The Society for Scientific Values tracks such cases, which is run by volunteers.

Independent scientists such as Bob O’Hara confirmed the result. He found that Indian scientists’ papers were five times more likely to be retracted for fraud than those by scientists of other countries.

Dinesh Abrol, a senior scientist at the National Institute of Science, Technology and Development Studies in New Delhi said that it was not a new thing and that many of the senior scientists had been involved in such frauds. Earlier this year, leaders of the nation’s top science organizations, or academies, had to apologize when a high-level inter-academy report on genetically modified crops was found to contain lifted text.

Indian Scientists are lucky as there are no nationally framed rules for punishing research fraud. But Institutions stand responsible for their own scientists and their actions.
