Tour of Switzerland - Land of forest, lakes and mountains

Off to SWITZERLAND,

To get absorbed in the aroma of the forest and farm land !

Visited the mighty Rhine falls,

To drench in the water of the Europe’s largest falls.

Climbed atop the mountains,

To bury into the snow heaps of the Titlis. Mountain.

Toured Lucerne, Zurich and neighbouring city,

Explored the nation’s authenticity !

Country known for the works of the Great Scientist Albert Einstein,

How could we miss to visit the house of this renowned Physicist!

Three days trip to the spectacular country,

The country of four languages – German, French, Italian, Romansh,

The country of breath-taking sights,

The country of innumerable trees,

lakes, villages and mountainous peaks,

The country of delicious flavored chocolates;

Left me astounded and realize,

Three days just not enough, to explore and get soaked,

In the stunning natural beauty it evoked !!

Fun Watching !

The Wal-Mart Way - Book Review

THE WAL-MART WAY - DON SODERQUIST I had the opportunity to read the book"THE WAL-MART WAY" when I was doing my post graduate Program in Management. This is one of the popular books among management students as the author talks about few innovative methods and techniques adopted by Wal-Mart, American Multinational Retail Corporation, to reduce the operation costs of the company, thereby providing the customers the products with low prices.

About the Author The author of this book Don Soderquist was the Chief Operations Officer (COO) and Senior Vice Chairman of Wal-Mart. He has work...

Italy tour - Rome, Florence, Venice - Experience and few tips

I recently went on a tour to Italy with my parents. We planned three main cities to visit – Rome, Florence and Venice. Enormous amount of time was spent in Google search to collect details on the tourist attractions and accommodation and the proximity of the tourist sites from the location of stay. The more the information in Google, the more the confusion in making decisions. After scratching our head for quite few days and after eliminating many possible options, we finally made a clear plan that was workable for us. But in this post, I am not going to talk about tourist attractions, as there is already so much material available on virtual platform to guide you. All thanks to the technology. The purpose of this post is to share few of my observations and experience from this trip that might be helpful to the readers.

Parenting in TENNIS - My experiences and learnings

PATIENCE -The key Mantra It was 2016. I was prepping up for a tennis match – Not to play, but to watch. Yes, I must mentally prepare myself to watch the match, as it was my son playing. It was a national level tennis tournament for U-14 years category. I sat on a wooden bench close to the court. The boys were warming up inside the court. Few others were gathered to watch the same match. My eyes were fixed on the court, anxiously waiting for the match to commence. The referee entered the court and positioned himself at the net at the centre of the court and tossed a coin. The coin fell flat on the ground. It was a head. The referee had a word with the winner of the toss to decide on who gets to s erve first. My son’s opponent chose to serve. All was set. The players moved apart, sipped few drops of water from their bottles and ran to their positions on the respective sides of the court, and the MATCH BEGAN. I got up from my bench and started to wander as the m...
