Inspiring reading!
"Self policing, self reflection, self correction, self talk, being a self teacher and always being a student to learn and move on...this is what spirituality means to me. I consider myself attitudinal spiritual"- by Kiran Bedi.
Such a wiser words by the Director general of the Indian Police service is Heart touching. Every one of us has a mindset that Police force is the Callous and cruel. Similar set of mind set ,I too have. Being an Indian and moreover a Women , she entirely changed our outlook.
Tihar jail is meant to be the toughest prisons in India and she had managed that before becoming Director general of the Indian Police Service. She changed the place into a center of learning and meditation. The above video proof that Kiran Bedi is truly a Indian women that not only punished the criminal but also made there life worth living.
After Looking at the video I have come across many instances that proof that Kiran bedi not only changed our outlook towards criminals but also give me a privilege to call my self as a 'girl'.
Kiran bedi was born in India in male oriented society in 50s. That was the time when boys are brought up to inherent the family property and girls to get married. There was no proper definition of women at that time. and at that time Kiran Bedi made a difference.
She says that Life is inclined. Its either comes down or goes up. and that inclination depend on our own self. She says that Life may have 100 of problems. And we have to think that 90 are own creations! She has a philosophy of 90/10. and she tells that we should take every moment seriously.
The time when kiran Bedi lived was ,when girl didn't get opportunity to do anything . And this philosophy is outcome of that fact that what she is getting from her parents at that time is incredible. and she made that Worth. So the next inspiration I gather from her is we should never cry that our life is full of pain. We should be positive and use very opportunity to the fullest and make worth out of it.
If you have some problem in your life. Take a initiative to find a solution of that. As nobody else will do that for you. And keep moving!
After the background here comes the main difference that she brings in Police. That difference which was different from male police . That was different because Kiran Bedi was different. and that Difference made a Difference.
Its Incredible!
Earlier it was a notion that police have a 'Power to detect and punish' . But it was not for Kiran Bedi. According to her it was ' Power To prevent'.
This video shows that how she brings a difference in there life and help them to change as civilised citizen of Indian Society. So that when they will come out they can live there life in better way.
She hate crime .Not the criminals.
she started educating the prisoners of Tihar Jail. It was the first ever prison in whole world that serve as a centre of education. It was her Who started it. And it was started in Delhi, India.
She change prison to ashram through education. and that was inspiring. She can left a job being a Indian women But she didn't. she comes forward and made a difference.
Another landmark that she had created is Meditation. Yes! Don't be shocked to read this. She had changed a prison to centre of education and meditation ground.
Simply inspiring!
Great going Kiran Bedi.

Margaret Heffernan
Next in the list is the women who inspires me to Disagree. Yes! she is telling us its not bad to disagree. We often see people avoid argument with there colleagues, love ones, family to avoid the conflicts. And believe me ,I too believe the same before watching this video too.
So lets have a look that whats she is actually want to say.
Margaret Heffernan is an entrepreneur, CEO, writer and keynote speaker.
Her motto is "Let's not play the game, let's change it."
That is pretty inspiring to read to. Most people instinctively avoid conflict, but as Margaret Heffernan shows us, good disagreement is central to progress.
Here in this Video clip Margaret is also narrating one instance of Women Doctor on 1950s. She was from the same college that she had passed from too. She acknowledged the fact that she finds her unique not only because she was the youngest to be choosen as physician from the college, But because of the fact that she continues to work even after she got married. Its was a big thing in 50s.
That was incredible!
I found this video very interesting, another point that I focus on,
is that even when the information was freely available and showed that
x-ray during pregnancy contributed to cancer rates in children, doctor’s
did not use that information, until 25 years later.
Part of the
problem was that it takes time to transform perception, even if the data
shows that it is incorrect. We not only need to Dare to disagree, but
also dare to believe in an alternative view or belief based on data and
new information. We must ourselves be open to changing our own views or
consider other possibilities.
And that the time we progress!

Graham Hill
'less stuff and
less space = less CO2, more $ and more :) . Wow what a thought. We all think that if we have more objects we will be happy. But whats this? Graham hill is saying totally different.
Yes. this is the topic that stuck me to see whole video at Ted to let me understand what exactly Hill want to convey.
By reading 'less Stuff, More happiness' , I banned my head that how it can be possible that less stuff leads to more mental happiness?
But after watching whole speech of Hill, I was convinced by his idea.It really inspired me to do similar to that.
As he says ' Small is Sexy' . So I want to see this video and learn next inspiration for life. Graham Hill makes concise, intelligent points about why becoming a minimalist makes sense.
"We've got to cut the extraneous out of our lives,
and we've got to learn to stem the inflow. We need to think before
we buy. Ask ourselves, 'Is that really going to make me happier?
Truly?'" (Graham Hill)
That's a good thought indeed.
He demonstrated three main steps by which we can achieve that.
1. Edit Ruthlessly:
Here he says that we are compiled with many things which we are not using for years. It can be clothes, shoes or simply machines.
He says why to keep them with us?
They are just taking extra spaces. They are not giving any happiness to us.
I asked my mind about this statement that Graham makes. I was contented with the fact that he was right. I have , like you , many useless stuff that are not in use that can be 'edited'.
That's called less stuff, More happiness!
I know many of you must be thinking that how we can ripe off the stuff as it must have many memories attached to it. But here we have to be sensible .
Just " Edit Ruthlessly".
Less stuff, More happiness
Yes, I get it. Do you get the point?
Next point or step he stated was 'Think Small'
What??? I mean people says "think larger than life." and why he is saying " think small? let me explain. He raises the point that many think can be disappear by magic. Papers, books, Chairs etc.
It can be done with the help of web management.
To see what exactly the web management is, look at the video.
I was very convinced with second step too.
Lets look at the third step of less stuff , More happiness. He states ' Makes Multifunctionals'. By that he gives instances that one thing can be utilised in many work. It gives happiness. And you don't need more stuff to do that same work.
For instance one dining table turns bed. That was pretty cool.
I liked it.
In the end I am very convinced that Less stuff can lead to more happiness.
I hope too get the same frame of mind. That's too inspired me .

Matt Cutts
So here comes our 4th inspirational video. This videos is all about adding a new habit in your life and subtracting one bad. As we all know that we are not perfect. we all have follies for sure. and who all are saying they are perfect, You better check out again.
Or simply we are stuck with our daily routine that we didn't get a time to try anything new?
yes. So this video is all about trying new things. Matt Cutts says that 'Try Something New For 30 Days'.
Matt Cutts is an engineer at Goggle, where he fights link spam and helps webmasters understand how search works .
Is there something you've always meant to do, wanted to do, but
just ... haven't? Matt Cutts suggests: Try it for 30 days. This short,
lighthearted talk offers a neat way to think about setting and achieving
goals.
That was quite similer with many of us. We all are doing same daily routine work that we didn't get a time to try to do new things.
He starts following American philosopher- Morgan Spurlock. and hence this video is based on this American philosopher Strategy, And he start trying new things for next 30 days. He says that try find something that you want to add to your life and try that in next 30 days.
When I heard this idea , I start making points that what is that, that I always wanted to do . I easily get many things. I wanted to bake a cake, ride a cycle, so on.
He further explain this concept by saying that we can make a list having 'Added' and ' subtrating' .
This is a screenshot to give u an idea to how you can make the list. He further says that these small changes are sustainable and make a difference in his life.
