No Respect to Unknown. !!!

hi. everyone.

I have been away from this blogging business all this while. Finally i have decided i should explore this . Interestingly , I found we people (at large.There can be exceptions) follow a pattern which is worth noting. And I have choosen blog as a medium to showcase my claim. Consider these scenarios:

1.The other day we(at home. in Family) were having some discussion about Mr Dhirubhai Ambani(Some contextual discussion) . My Uncle made a statement saying "Its out of pure luck which made what Mr Ambani is. "

2.One of my best friend working for a top most fund house says "No analysis works in market. Its only sentiment". While I argued sentiment can be tracked through analysis(I am not claiming my proposition to be right).

3.After all the success which Slum dog Millionare has achieved, some of the most admired movie stars(they once told getting oscar is their dream) shrug it away saying "Slumdog is no wonder.Its just that its made to meet oscar standards"

While there can be innumerable examples like this. Please donot take any stands on the above given situations. Lets understand the way these arguments are build. One think clearly we can say is we are masters(including me) of two things:

1. Being Critical

2. Disparaging

We get a lot of fun in being critical about biggest things in the world. May be that is because we get a lot of recognition in doing that? the price we pay for this is our respect. Also we enjoy de crediting biggest efforts around us. This I feel may be because as soon as we hear of a huge success we get into a denial mode and start finding silly,small reasons for other's success (Because we think onlines of why couldn't we rather than how could he/she ) ignoring all efforts by the candidate. I was actually wondering why everybody does it so similarly?? The reason (There can still be many) I felt is because we don't respect things which are not known to us. Also we don't respect things which we have not experienced. Had my uncle been appreciating the unknown(to him) hardships which Mr Ambani went through prior to Success or Had those big movie stars been thinking of what it took to make slumdog such a huge success or Had i been appreciating the importance of market sentiment :-) to analysis It would have just been a much healthier discussion. So.. should we start looking or listening to things little differently?? may be yes .

  3. hey this is a good observation by you , i always believe that people should not do a "loose" talk sitting back home ,having a cup of coffee in one hand and a cigar in another,without having the factual information and the knowledge about what they are talking coz these discussions can lead to disrespect about any unknown!
