GREATNESS OF SMALLNESS:

 From Sampath’s Desk:

 

GREATNESS OF SMALLNESS:


  • Even a journey of thousand miles starts with a single step.
  • Often, the smallest things provide the root and route to the greatest ones.
  • Even a simple idea may be a 'work-in-progress' provided it is backed and followed up by resoluteness, tenacity, and perseverance to achieve.
  • Small opportunities are often the beginning of great enterprises.
  • Even the greatest glories had the simplest beginnings.
  • Even great personalities had only a humble beginning. They are not born great either. They use and meticulously overcome their troubles, trials, and tribulations to clinch success and emerge great.
  • While a technician builds a job, the entrepreneur builds an enterprise.
  • The richness of smallness universally attracts and fascinates people.
  • Strong conviction-backed pursuits precede milestone achievements.
  • Every King or Queen was once a cry baby and every great building was just a blueprint once.
  • Sacrifice is greater than love. Character is greater than beauty. Humanity is greater than wealth, but nothing is greater than a good relationship/friendship.
  • There are four ‘D’s in life – Desire, Determination, Dedication and Discipline. You need all the four to become great. But it all starts with the 5th ‘D’ viz. Dream.
  • The key to a successful life is to have more beginnings than endings.
  • A journey from inspiration to perfection inevitably leads you to the path of success.
  • An invisible big tree is encrypt in a small seed.
  • An egg is bird involved and a bird is egg evolved.
  • Even a spark can cause a forest fire.
  • Let us celebrate and cherish even the smallest and lightest moments of life to remain happy. 

Proverb:

 

சமர்த்தனுக்கு ஏதும் பெரிதல்ல.

Nothing is too great for a clever man.
