Week 2 Day 1 13th March 2012

Week 2 Day 1 13th March 2012

First of all i shouldn't be writing the blog for this day, well for the fact that i missed the class, as i had to attend a birthday party of a dear friend of mine, nevertheless i met few of my batch mates and they said they had a fun time during the lecture period as they had to make paper rockets and throw them and my face was like.....


But then again, to every action there is a significance to it, when a person threw a rocket, he or she threw to a specific point or target. Every person in life will have a chance either to hit their targets or actually coming close to achieve them (even if they don't achieve it, its a lesson learned so that they will do better the next time). Therefore the morale of the Paper Rocket scenario is how a person can improve his/her skills.

My opinion is, if a person cannot achieve their goals or targets well they were not ready at that time, however they know what their mistakes were and thus the next time they have a shot at it surely they will achieve it!!

The below video is about a young German who was passionate about his home F1 Hero Micheal Schumacher and since then he kept chasing the same dream becoming an F1 racer 2007 he debuted in BMW sauber as the youngest ever F1 driver replacing for just a single race another driver, he scored points in his first race and started driving for Toro Rosso and in 2008 with an uncompetitive car he took his first victory and scored more points than any other rookie. In 2009 he got promoted to Red Bull Racing and became Runner up for the FIA F1 2009 championship, even though being beaten by the 2009 champion Jenson Button, he entered the 2010 championship with confidence, the car although was the fastest car had reliability issues which made him loose races in which he could have won with his eyes closed, but he never gave up and fought till the last race where he clinched the 2010 F1 championship (5 Drivers being runners up). He didn't stop there he knew even though he won the championship he had mistakes, and so in 2011 he won his 2nd consecutive championship, with 15 pole positions, 11 victories and finishing 17 times on the podium in the season's 19 Races.



This story shows how targets can be achieved, as there is a saying in this world, NO PAIN, NO GAIN!!
