MINDING THE MINDS
"Lesser minds discuss people, Average minds discuss events, Great minds discuss ideas."
Don't remember the author.
This quotation always comes to my mind when I am with a group talking or disucssing something. I had been to Pune last week and this again came to my mind. While talking with my friends, I found that we spoke about people, events and ideas, all of them, without any exception or inhibition. This is something I have always seen. There is never any set topic or parameters when we are talking. Which makes me belive that all of us have the lesser, the average and the great minds, in the same small bheja that we carry on our shoulders. Its the ocassion, enviornment and to some extent the company which determines what we discuss at any given point of time.
And obviously, at the first place, this all applies only if you consider the above quotation to be true.

Rightly said. No doubt most of us talk about all the three things but I somehow agree with the author of the quotation. When we talk about ideas, we force our minds to the thinking mode. And this generates an opportunity for more ideas.
Anyways...see this website http://www.atharvinsurance.com. After couple of failed attempts, I was able to give it the presentable shape.
a very general comment not on ur blog ..
yaar yeh display image mein toe bilkul school passout lag rahe hoo :D..
had no chance to go through paddhai link..Is it the forum u wanted to create
@Vishwas Bhaiya: The website looks good.. but could not link ur relevance to it... :(
@Rachana: chal kahin to shareef lag raha hoon... :) n Paddhai link is not the forum but ya something related to it...
"Lesser minds discuss people, Average minds discuss events, Great minds discuss ideas" ....purra statement hi gallat lagg raha hai...
Lesser minds discuss people - i dont find Barkha Dutt a lesser mind??
Avg minds - after a cricket match...our snr players gather to discuss the event..r they avg minds??
gr8 minds - i dont know why i find "MTV Roadies" as a big big crap, n also saw how they got the ideas to implement it...yukkk...gr8 ideas hmmmm...
sorry stony abt Roadies :-D
@Sam: I differ here... Barkha Dutt and cricket players r doing a job and cannot be categorized under the statement... Roadies is itself an idea (a gr8 one at that) and there r no people discussing about ideas in roadies... and ya I like roadies...
in fact I find 'Aaj Tak' a gr8 idea as well though I do not like it... it differs from the rest of the news channels and has a following of its own for that reason...
what i tried to say is...there is nothing like lesser,avg,gr8 minds...
i just dont find this stmnt correct...detailed explanation can be given after u serve me with 4-5 pegs of OM...deal done!
thank u ;)
@Sam: in fact that is what I tried to say in my post... so no deal... i dont want to be chaatified...
