• A comment on Conversation: Did you have a teacher that inspired you, opened doors in front of you and put a fingerprint on your life the way it is now?

  Nov 27 2011: My sports teacher in high...played a vital role in making me wat I m .........
  
  in sports as I used to get nervous soon.....I always used to take part in running in school days bt always failed to get first position..most of the time I was second or third in the competion.
  One day my sports teacher came to me and asked why dont come first and I said " Perhaps the person who came first runs faster than me". But he shouted at me and said " No, that person is not faster than bt ur nervousness makes u slow."
  Next day during the practice he asked us to come individually on the track and complete 100 m as fast as possible ..Meanwhile he noted our time of completion with stopwatch bt he didn't disclose our timings to us. After some times rest he called me and said " wolud u like to know who has taken the least time to complete 100m ".I replied " oh yes sir." at which he smiled and said " thats u.. and u r faster than others bt when u r in competition u get nervous and bcoz of this nervousness u fail to come first "
  I understood what my Sir wanetd to explain...in the next race i just focussed on the race without getting nervous abt the results ...and this time DARA SINGH came first.
  So then I realise that its 'our mind ,our thought,our will ' that are to be controlled and to be moulded in right direction to achieve something

  A comment on Conversation: What's in a name?

  Aug 19 2011: Hi Silvia,
  u have put forward an interesting question "what's in name".
  I have simple story behind my name.My father gave me this name in the honor of Great Indian wrestler "Dara Singh".
  My last name "Singh" means 'Lion'...ActuallyI'm a Sikh by religion and male Sikhs write Singh after their name as prescribed in the Sikh religion.
  My first name ' Dara' is a name with more than one origin. This link will give many meanings of 'Dara' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dara
  
  I'm always inspired by my name and the name "Dara Singh" always gives me guts to be powerfull man like great wrestler Dara Singh and move forward to undertake any task with full strength.
