Govind is in Bengaluru for an official trip.
He got introduced to the team & the discussion started.
During lunch, he could see that, Mohan was eating using his left hand & his right hand seemed fine. After lunch, he met Mohan.
Govind: Mohan. By any chance, are you a lefty ?
Mohan: Yes. I'm.
Govind: Being a lefty is so rare that only 10% of people are lefties. I'm glad. You must be specialized in any of the arts or crafts. Also, the odd one during your childhood.
Mohan: You got it. Yes. We're a family of lefty portrait artists. My parents shaped my childhood well.
Govind: That's nice. I recently got to know the lefty stationery. Everything is right hand dominated.
Mohan: Yeah. That's there.
After the visit, he told this to Sid.
Siddharth: (sarcastically) Govind. Have you not met any lefty since your childhood ? You're exaggerating. Being a lefty is normal & some of the famous celebrities are lefties.
Govind: (smiling) You're right. I've met lefties over years but it didn't matter to me much until I met someone who gave a handshake to me in her left hand. It's the red car theory Sid.
Siddharth: Oh. I see. Then, the red car theory caught you red-handed.

When a group of people go through certain events or exams, it's better that either all of them or none go through. If all go through except one, the others might feel empathetic for the one but for the one it'll be literally pathetic. Overthinking, self-doubt reaches its peak. The impact is that they struggle to do their routine things which were once a piece of cake for them. The phrase, "Main hi reh gaya bhayya !!!" has so much depth and emotions...

Invariably, you'll be expected to multitask at office. While it may seem difficult at the beginning but once learnt, it's damn good. What goes unnoticed is that, you expect things to be multitasked rather than doing them one at a time even if multitasking isn't required for that aspect...

We often worry if one of our favourite shoes get torned. It's a natural feeling. Another point to look at it is that we'll be stepping into another pair of shoes meaning that we'll be introduced to a new perspective...

It's another snippet from Gopika's birthday...
The team had planned for a cake cutting that evening...
And the cake was Gopika's favourite flavour i.e. Blackcurrant...
Govind took out his phone and opened camera to capture some memories of Gopika's birthday... Noticing this, Gopika suddenly gave her phone to Govind... Govind could understand her intention...
Gopika: Sir... Can you take pics in my phone ?? The camera quality is good...
Govind: (nodding his head) Sure Gopika... I'll capture... Your phone is locked... What's the pin ??
Gopika: (thought for a moment) Oh... Forgot that... It's my birth date.
Govind: Okay... Fine then...
It was an eight digit pin... Govind entered the pin and phone was unlocked quickly...
Siddharth was noticing all these...
After the cake cutting...
Siddharth: Bro... How did you know her phone pin ??
Govind: Sid... She said, it's her birth date. So, I was able to enter.
Siddharth: Oh... It's a 4 digit pin is it ??
Govind: (stammers a bit) Yeah...
Siddharth: Then it's easy... Enter today's date and the phone unlocks...
Only Govind knew that it's the same pin that he uses to unlock his phone...

Behind every student who has achieved many things in life, there's a good teacher. What goes unnoticed is that the same teacher inspires few of his/her students to take up teaching as their profession. So, behind every teacher's achievements as well, there's always a teacher...

Dad is one who not only teaches you things but tells you how to learn new things too. It's called teaching the perspective. We'll not be able to understand him and his perspective when we're in our teens. Once we grow up, we'll realize that our basic manners, vocabulary, dress sense, how we treat others were and are a mere reflection of him...

We have many teachers who would've taught us in school. After years rolled by, there are only few teachers whom we could recall from their teaching POV. The interesting thing here is that, we don't happen to remember all aspects that they've taught. Rather the perspective that they've given us to see and understand things by standing in our shoes and seeing through our lens, still stands tall in our mind. That's where some teachers standout from the crowd...

If we don't have control of the situation, we can improvise but if we are the one who controls the situation, it's us who has to remain ideal and self-driven and ensure that we don't opt for the contingency plan...

They say, "one who is patient, knows & controls his anger well...". Effectively, patience is just being patient with the situation. Handling things in a patient manner. Patience is not absence of anger. It's embracing things patiently...
