Action

This post is dedicated to Wilfred. Coincidentally, on the day I decided to write about an sms he sent me on the 31st July 2007, he sent me another of the same positive nature, today. Amazing is the power of fate. Rushed this out to due Wilfred my respect for him.

Waking up on the 31st July 2007, I was pleasantly greeted with an SMS from Wilfred. I have not deleted it. Thank you Wilfred for the SMS :) It is important to me.

"If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them." - Henry Thoreau

These wise words by Henry Thoreau hold the essence as in:

1. "Begin with the end in mind" by Stephen R. Covey, as well as
2. "Dare to dream", and most importantly
3. Action


These wise words are coined by, followed and practised with fervour by the elites at the top of the hierarchy, wherever the hierarchy may be rooted. Trickling from the top downwards, the quotes are often repeated verbally by the masses. However, they are seldom grasped nor practised with their originality. When results do not match the promises in these quotes, they are dismissed as cliche.


Knowledge is rampant. As per all other hierarchies, great knowledge is few and at the tip of the triangle. Further, in another hierarchy, effective users of knowledge also remain at the top. It is with the unity between great knowledge and action that dreams come true.

I share the quote that Wilfred shared with me because it speaks about action and is great knowledge that I believe in. Your action on this great knowledge about action, my dear readers, will unlock the secret in these open secrets of these successful men, and you will succeed too :)
