About Me
- Ram
- As you all know I also have a keen interest in Social Enterpreneurship, just like some of you and I work with friends like you to not only keep that fire burning, but to also think of new ideas of doing things differently and more importantly productively. From what I know of my own opportunities of improvement, I would be 45 years old by when I would be able to start working on any of my dream projects.

My Answer:
At this moment of time, I think visibility factor, appreciation and importantly recognition play a very important role in making me do something extra ordinary.
If my CEO comes to me and says that I have done excellent work and is looking upto me to be the role model of the firm, thenI will be the extraordinary man of the year.
"extraordinary" is a big word often very confusing to me. What I think of "extraordinary" may be trivial to the other person. I like the saying " Do simple things in a great manner rather than doing great things in a simple way". As I still wonder what extraordinary means... I'll try to cultivate the habit of doing one task a day which pleases a stranger. After few days this will evolve to be a habit and may lead me to better thinking.
For me a positive mind is all it takes to do something significant.
Terming something as "Extraordinary" is very subjective. I would rather say I would give my 100% to any task that kindles the passion within me to execute the task. Response from others for having done it could vary from "hmm" to "wow". That should not matter to me as long as after having completed the work, I can look back on it and feel happy for what has been accomplished in my capacity.
mmm..it takes nothing to be extraordinary :-)..whatever be the meaning of the word.
as someone rightly said here, it is subjective - from the various minds. like, it is e'ordianry, for the girl, just to be a flowergirl in gb shah's Pygmalion or for a chambermaid in kafka's Castle to be a barmaid!! so it depends on our exposure, our dreams and our perseverance.
so may be it suffices to ask - shd i be a good worker, good human being or a good role-player (say a son or a citizen) than asking - shd i be the best worker, best human etc.,
in sum, i think if i m honest to my own feelings abt what i m doing, be it my job, my responsibilities, my roles as a hub and a dad etc., i m by default achieving a lot- indirectly helping the larger society. once i achieve this, may be i ll talk abt impacting the larger audience. so the gradualy increment of my utility to rest of the humanbeings defines my extraordinariness..the more i impact, the more extra am i!! great day!
