INSPIRING STATEMENTS
OPPORTUNITY NEVER KNOCKS ANYMORE. IT IS HERE. IF YOU DONT GRAB IT SOMEONE ELSE WILL.

ANYONE CAN MAKE THE IMPOSSIBLE INTO I M POSSIBLE.

LIFE IS MAKING CHOICES AND TAKING RESPONSIBILTY.

SUCCESS DEPENDS ON YOU [U] FAILURE ALSO DEPENDSON YOU [U]

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DIRECT THE WIND BUT WE CAN ADJUST OUR SAILS.

REMEMBER. MOST WINNERS ARE EX LOSERS. AND HAVE FAILED MORE TIME THAN THE LOSERS. WINNERS WIN OVER TEMPORARY LOSERS WHO BECOME FUTURE WINNERS.

YOU HAVE TWO THINGS IN COMMON WITH ALL SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE. A 24 HOUR DAY AND PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITIES. IT IS HOW YOU USE IT THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE.

OUR BUSINESS IN LIFE IS NOT TO GET AHEAD OF OTHERS BUT TO GET AHEAD OF OTHERS.

IF YOU NOT FIRED WITH ENTHUSIASM YOU WILL BE FIRED WITH ENTHUSIASM.

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS WITHOUT ENTHUSIASM NOTHING WORTHWHILE WAS ACHIEVED IN LIFE.

KNOWLEDGE ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH IT IS YOUR ATTITUDE AND SKILLS ALSO THAT WILL MAKE A GREAT DIFFERENCE IN CAMPUS PLACEMENT.

THE DECISIVE FACTOR IN LIFE IS NOT WHAT HAPPENS TO US BUT THE ATTITUDE WE TAKE TOWARDS WHAT HAPPENS.

REMINDER THE ELIGIBILITY FOR CAMPUS PLACEMENT IN A REPUTED INSTITUTION WILL BE 75% AGGREGATE WITH NO STANDING ARREARS UPTO 5TH SEMESTER.

SUCCESS IS NEVER PERMANENT AND FAILURE IS NEVER FINAL.

ATTITUDE FOR SUCCESS

PRACTISE MAKES A PERSON PERFECT NO PRACTISE LEADS TO OVER CONFIDENCE. ACCEPT FAILURE BUT DONT EXPECT FAILURE. DONT GET DEPRESSED IF YOU ARE REJECTED. BE POSITIVE. TRY. LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES. THEN TRY AGAIN. YOU WILL SUCCEED. REMEMBER: TODAYS MISTAKES ARE LESSONS FOR TOMORROWS SUCCESS. TECHNIQUES MAKE WINNING LESS CHALLENGING AND MORE REWARDING.

11

MOTIVATION & APPRECIATION CAN BRING OUT THE BEST IN PEOPLE. IT INCREASES THE CONFIDENCE LEVELS. PLAY GAMES IN LIFE BUT DONT MAKE YOUR LIFE A GAME. REMEMBER YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE TO THE TEAM. SIZE DOESNT MATTER BUT PREPRATION DOES. REMEMBER. PREPARATION CAN SHAKE THE CONFIDENCE OF OTHERS. FALLING IS NOT FAILURE BUT FAILING TO GET UP IS FAILURE. SEEK THE ADVICE, OPINION AND EXPERTISE OF OTHERS. REMEMBER TO THANK YOUR TEAM AFTER EVERY SUCCESS. LET THEM KNOW HOW GRATEFUL YOU ARE. LEARN TO APOLOGISE TO YOUR TEAM AFTER EVERY FAILURE. LET THEM KNOW YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE. TEAM WORK WORKS BECAUSE..

OPPORTUNITIES DONT COME VERY OFTEN. LEARN TO USE THEM. STAY FOCUSSED & CONCENTRATE 100% ON YOUR GOAL. FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS BUT DONT FORGET TO FOLLOW THE RULES & REGULATIONS. NEVER REDUCE YOUR GOALS BUT INCREASE YOUR ABILITIES AND SKILLS TO REACH YOUR GOALS. THE SECRET OF SUCCESS IS NOT LIMITING YOUR SELF-IDENTITY TO PRESENT REALITIES, BUT EXPANDING IT TO INCLUDE YOUR HIGHEST POTENTIALS. WE ARE LIKE A PENCIL. BEST PART OF US IS INSIDE. WE MAKE MARKS AS WE TOUCH OTHERS LIVES. WE MAKE MISTAKES AND ERASE THEM AND WE BECOME BETTER AS WE ARE SHARPENED. THE SECRET OF SUCCESS IS BLAMING NO ONE WHEN THINGS GO WRONG, BUT DOING WHATEVER YOU CAN TO IMPROVE MATTERS.

12

LIFE IS LIKE A PIANO. THE WHITE AND BLACK KEYS REPRESENT HAPPINESS AND SADNESS. BUT AS YOU GO THROUGH LIFES JOURNEY YOU WILL REALISE THAT THERE CAN BE NO MUSIC WITHOUT USING BOTH THE KEYS. ALWAYS HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE IN LIFE: THERE IS SOMETHING POSITIVE IN EVERY PERSON & EVERY SITUATION. EVEN A DEAD CLOCK IS RIGHT TWICE A DAY. POSITIVE ATTITUDE : NEGATIVE ATTITUDE: SEEING AN OPPORTUNITY IN EVERY PROBLEM. SEEING A PROBLEM IN EVERY OPPORTUNITY.

WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU ROCKS. DONT SIT BACK AND BLAME LIFE. MAKE A CHOICE WHETHER TO BUILD A WALL OR A BRIDGE. ALL THE WATER IN THE SEA CANNOT MAKE A SHIP SINK. BUT IF THE WATER GETS INSIDE THE SHIP, IT SOON SINKS WITHOUT A TRACE. SO IT IS WITH INSULTS. INSULTS CANNOT DROWN YOU UNLESS YOU ALLOW IT TO GET INSIDE YOU. GOD CREATES GREAT ARTWORKS AND ONE OF HIS MASTERPIECES IS YOU. THE GREATEST LOVE IN THE WORLD IS THE LOVE YOU HAVE FOR YOURSELF. BEAUTY WILL ONLY BE ADMIRED BUT CHARACTER WILL ALWAYS BE ADMIRED AND RESPECTED. WHEN STARTING OUT, DO NOT BE CONCERNED WITH SALARY.. GAINING EXPERIENCE AND FINDING WHAT YOU ENJOY IS MOST IMPORTANT. EMPLOYERS DONT WANT EXCUSES. THEY WANT RESULTS. CHOOSE A JOB YOU LOVE AND YOU WILL NEVER FEEL YOU HAVE WORKED A DAY IN YOUR LIFE. PERFORM YOUR JOB BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE CAN. THATS YOUR BEST JOB SECURITY.
