Mantras for Success


                                                                           

Who does not want to achieve success?  How will know how to exactly go about in a structured way to the goals one wants to achieve? The mantras to success gives the qualities one need to have to achieve the success desired
4D + 8P = smiles


The 4Ds:  Dedication, Determination, Dynamism, Decisiveness

Dedication:  No one has ever succeeded without this quality. The dedication shown by Indian scientists like M.S.Swaminathan has resulted in the green revolution in India and the country has achieved self sufficiency in food production.

Determination: When Dr.Kurien of Amul was determined to make milk powder out of buffalo milk, the whole world laughed at him .This has never been achieved earlier in any country. But Kurien’s determination worked and he produced commercially the product and the production continues today. The very same companies in milk production got a surprise of their life.

Dynamism:  Dynamism gives life to one’s goal and the determination to achieve the same. Dynamism is not physical dynamism, but mental dynamism of thoughts. Thoughts should keep on coming to the mind, so that new ways of achieving success can be found. When thoughts dry up, actions come to a halt. A Dynamic leader like Steve Jobs brought Apple to where it is now.

Decisiveness: Procrastination is not a way of leaders. Decisions need to be taken so that things can proceed with pace. Procrastination only delays the decisions and is a stumbling block to success
.
The 8 Ps:  Passion, People skills, product, positive thinking, patience, paying back to society, perseverance, prayer

Passion: Artists who are passionate about their goals have produced wonder art works. The Hindi film, Sholay is a resounding success and seen even now, since the film was produced with passion by the artists. Efforts to recreate ‘sholay ‘did not result in the same success 

People skills: Result in others aligning to your goals and contributing to the efforts.  People skills draw others to the ideals and there are even voluntary efforts to the goals of the achiever: Sardar Vallabbai Patel’s people skills resultant in the present day United India.

The Product: Product produced by an individual /company should be a hall mark so that customer s keeps buying the same again and again. We still do not have a substitute for the humble stapler that we use every day

Positive thinking: Positive attitude sets the mind in the positive direction and makes the person optimistic and hence enhances the leadership traits of a person. On the other hand, negative thinking demoralizes people around. : When Rattan Tata was acquiring land rover, and Jaguar, many were discouraging him. In spite of that his positive thinking leads the group to acquire all these and move forward

Patience: Patience is required for some processes to get complete when there is a specific incubation time, which cannot be altered.  Something similar to the time required for cooking a dish.   Being impatient at this juncture will only spoil the dish.  Patience when needed is a virtue.

Paying back to society:  Enshrined in the structure and culure of the Tata Group of India, the Group is respected in the society and welcomed all over the world. This has enabled the group to expand globally. This mantra was given by the founder of the group, Jamshedji Tata.

Perseverance:  it is said that 90 % failure is the result of 10 % success. Failures are common and are the stepping stone to success. So efforts in spite of failures can only lead to success. Wright Bros, failed many times before they succeeded in a flying machine.

Prayer: Prayer brings mental peace. A successful person goes through stress and the mind needs peace to get prepared for further efforts.


4 D +8 P = the winning combination. And brings the smile on everyone’s face
Smile is the outcome of: Sustainable mission, innovation, love, empathy and success

Sustainable mission bring smiles to people, as they can see the effects in the long run.  The innovation of a new idea is cherished over generations. The computer, the telephone, the internet, face book, all these products to day, bring smiles to the make the society happy and smile. Had electricity, jet engines and aero plane has not been invented, imagine the world of today. These inventors have even risked their lives to invent and innovate. Love and empathy unfortunately is diminishing in today’s word and there is a need to increase the empathy of everyone in the society, to promote peace and understanding. The love for others makes one to do things for others and hence bring smiles to the entire society. All the good happenings in the world are traced to love for the near and dear, for the country and for humanity. Gandhiji's love for society not only for India but for the world has made him to be an icon the world is celebrating. It was Swami Vivekananda’s word of love, addressing the gathering as ‘brother and sisters’ in the world religion conference in Chicago, made the world stand and watch his word.

Welcome

Dr. Sachin S. Vernekar As the Director of IMED, Pune. I am thankful to Hon. Chancellor, Dr. Patangrao Kadam and Hon. Vice Chancellor, Dr. Shivajirao Kadam and Dr. Vishwajeet Kadam, Secretary to have given me this opportunity.

After a successful period of eleven years as Director at BVIMR, New Delhi which is ranked in top fifty in India and second in North India for MBA and given top position for BBA BCA in Delhi and NCR. I look forward with a new zeal and optimism to lead IMED to greater heights of success. The enthusiasm and vigor that I have observed among the faculty members and the students of IMED is truly commendable. With their support and positive attitude, I am confident that IMED will soon become one of the best Management Institutes in the country.

It is indeed a matter of pride to be a part of IMED, one of the oldest Institutes in the Western part of India which has been recently re-accredited with “A” grade by NAAC.
Dr. Sachin S.Vernekar
MBA , LLB (GEN), Ph.D, FIMA, FICA
Director IMED
A great responsibility lies in the hands of educational institutes as they are instrumental in carving the young adults into responsible citizens of the country and thus play a vital role in building the future of a nation. I promise that IMED will work towards developing smart managers and entrepreneurs thus contributing its bit to the development of our society and nation. All activities carried out by IMED will focus primarily on grooming the students and enhancing their academic and inter personal skill sets and finally making them a wise human being.

To add new feathers of success to the cap of IMED, I also propose to focus on certain other key aspects of academic and administrative activities such as placement, teaching learning and evaluation process. Faculty members are the life line of any educational institution, their involvement in academic and research activities is of paramount importance for the success of the institute. Research is the most significant part of the academic career of any faculty. Through research they can contribute to the development of society as well as industry. I propose to inculcate the research culture in IMED. Henceforth, all the faculty members will receive incentives for publishing research papers. Also every research project done by faculty members will be funded by the University. We plan to organize the first International Conference on “Talent Management” in Jan, 2013 as instructed by the Hon. Vice Chancellor, Dr. Shivajiraoji Kadam.

I congratulate the editorial team for their wonderful job in bringing out the ninth issue of IMED Newsletter with new design highlighting activities carried out in last six months.

I appeal to all the staff and students of IMED to work in a team as “None of us is as strong as all of us”. As the Director of IMED, I welcome all the students to approach me with their queries and concerns. Students’ success and their wellbeing will always remain the most important priority of IMED.

Dr. Sachin S.Vernekar.
