2. Great careers require great foundations. Great career
start from schooling. Does it mean send your child to a
great school? What do you mean by great school? Which
school will be a great school? Is it a school that charges
great fees? Is it a school that gives heavy advertisement?

3. The best school is the HOME itself. Keep your child in
home – as much as you can. The best teacher is the
MOTHER. What is to be taught? The foundation of the
child is the basic belief system. How do we build the
basic belief system? Belief systems require you to have
trust and confidence. No teacher can substitute mother.
No teacher can be as trusting as mother.
Great careers are built on the foundations of great belief
systems. Belief systems are based on trusts, confidence,

4. attitude to life and the ultimate goals of life.
Building great foundations - 6 Suggestions that can
work ..
1. Start with trust – trust the child – accept the child,
love the child, respect the child and look at the child
with admiration
2.Start with positive attitude – enable the child to see
positive in everything around
3.Start with exploration – enable child to explore the
nature, to see the nature, to live with nature – bare
foot,
4.Start with confidence – start small activities – play
with sand, play with water, play with plants, play
with trees, play with nature – and build confidence
in the mind of the child – the child should be able to
experience first hand creativity

5. 5.Create an apetite for learning – don’t teach anything
– let the child develop an apetite for learning – don’t
offer any knowledge to the child – let the child seek
it and then offer it.
6.Build imaginative faculty – tell interesting and
inspirational stories, show pictures, slowly build
imaginative faculty of the child – enable the child to
cultivate his imaginative skills at its own pace. Let
the child nurture wild ideas.

6. GREAT CAREERS – GREAT UNDERSTANDING OF THE
TIMES TO COME
Careers are also dependent on understanding to
changing times, changing technology, changing social
trends, changing fashions etc. you have to find what is
going to happen in the years to come. You have to
predict the times of tomorrow. Careers should be flexible
enough to move in the directions of changing times.
A simple law of demand says – society will chase
something which is in short supply. You have a simple

7. relation between demand and supply. 100 units are in
demand, 100 units are in supply – this is ideal condition.
This is not possible. There is always an imbalance. This
imbalance creates an opportunity or a loss. It is a simple
law. Ten years back, we required large IT professionals
due to arrival of IT related industries in India. IT
professionals were commanding huge price. Today the
situation is different. We have larger number of IT
professionals than demand. The premium is diluting.
People are blaming the government for un-employment
– but they should understand this simple ratio of
demand and supply (law of demand and supply).
