3. Values I believe that good values are the best possessions that a person can have. One’s values are a true reflection of one’s personality. One’s values make one stand apart, values make one fall down. 3 Rajat Pashine 7/28/2009

4. My beliefs Always put your 100% so that you don’t repent later on. Don’t be afraid to follow your dreams, don’t care what people say. If you think you are right, don’t be afraid of anything. Don’t commit for what you cannot deliver. Everyone is unique, as are their ideas: don’t neglect anybody. 4 Rajat Pashine 7/28/2009

5. My beliefs Everybody has the capacity to make a difference to the world around them. Never think that you know better than everybody else. Work consistently. Consistency is the key to success. Last minute solutions are bound to fail. Talk sense. Never stop learning. 5 Rajat Pashine 7/28/2009
