A Brilliant article by my good friend Donald Latumahina  in Indonesia . Here is the original link .Hope you enjoy  http://www.lifeoptimizer.org/2016/06/30/a-key-to-getting-ahead-in-life/ Do you want to get ahead in life? If so, then there is  one key you should have:  a knowledge advantage . I learned about this from Mark Cuban through his book How to Win at the Sport of Business . Mark Cuban is the billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks and one of the ‘sharks’ on the hit TV series  Shark Tank . In the book, he wrote about how he started his business. One thing he emphasized is the importance of having a knowledge advantage. Before starting his business, Cuban had a job selling computer software. There was a problem though: he didn’t know  anything  about computer software (it was in the early ‘80s). So what did he do? He spent hours  a day reading software manuals. As it turned out, not many people read those manuals, so he...

One of the most challenging experiences in life , this possibly can be achieved through a three pronged strategy :  1.Reading of the scriptures and listening to the Guru to gain Knowledge ,maybe what is Shravana 2.Reflecting on the same and making an attempt to see God in everything , also known as Manana 3.The last stage is meditating on the Higher Self which requires a lot of preparation and practise .This is known as Dhyana.  However one needs to do one's duties well and rise above petty material desires to become a Karmayogi and then a Gyanyogi finally .  There is no shortcut .  All thanks to our Guru Swami Parthsarathi and our mentor Shri(Dr)Subhashis Chakraborty 

The compilation was done by Matt Karmazov & the email was forwarded to me by Donald @LifeOptimizer ... I found them very relevant & inspiring especially point No 4 . I am sure you would find it useful  Here are just a few: #1 – Provide more service than that for which you are paid : Instead of saying, “Of course I would do more work if they paid me more!”, instead ask, “What could I start doing that would lead to an increase in pay?”. You put the work in first, and then you reap the benefits. #2 – You create everything that happens to you : Shifting responsibility will never get you ahead. Even when something isn’t your fault, accept that these are your new conditions, and work diligently towards a solution. Wasting energy pointing fingers isn’t helping anybody. #3 – Work on your core genius : There are things that you hate to do, that other people would pay to do. Just like there are things that you’re not good at, which other people are excellent at. So what s...

http://energyinformative.org/best-solar-panel-monocrystalline-polycrystalline-thin-film/ Advantages Monocrystalline solar panels have the highest efficiency rates since they are made out of the highest-grade silicon . The efficiency rates of monocrystalline solar panels are typically 15-20%. SunPower produces the highest efficiency solar panels on the U.S. market today. Their E20 series provide panel conversion efficiencies of up to 20.1%. [3] Update (April, 2013):  SunPower has now released the X-series at a record-breaking efficiency of 21.5%.  [7] Monocrystalline silicon solar panels are space-efficient.  Since these solar panels yield the highest power outputs, they also require the least amount of space compared to any other types. Monocrystalline solar panels produce up to four times the amount of electricity as thin-film solar panels. Monocrystalline solar panels live the longest.  Most solar panel manufacturers put a 25-year warranty on their monocrys...

India's solar energy is on a growth path . Whether you plan to enter the sector or set up your own rooftop unit , it would be good to have an understanding of the top solar players . Among them Tata Solar , Vikram Solar & Emmvee Group stand out . Tata Solar has a turnover of approximately Rs 510 crores . For more details look on below , a good compilation by Richa Chakravarti of elctronics2b http://electronicsb2b.efytimes.com/top-15-solar-players-india/

There are essentially 3 types of Solar Cell Companies .The tier 1 comprising top 2% do core R&d and are integrated end-to-end.The experience is more than 10 years. The second line about 8% do not indulge in R&d but use partial robotics etc for manufacturing. They have experience of 2-5 years .The rest 90% are assemblers and use human production lines for manual soldering.The projects however have a good capital output ratio .  Here's a good link to review the top Solar Companies  http://www.forbes.com/sites/uciliawang/2014/12/03/guess-who-are-the-top-10-solar-panel-makers-in-the-world/#2e34708f2812 Solar equipment makers are gearing up to expand production again after many of them had to idle production lines or close factories. So who are the top 10 solar panel makers these days? IHS   released its ranking today that put Trina Solar as the top shipper of solar panels in 2014, followed by Yingli Green  Energy . Both companies are based in Ch...

http://www.exportincite.com/news/2015/05/horeca-critical-mass/ Let’s be honest. Volume is the major driver in the food service industry. We all want it and for good reason. By Cameron Gordon, Asia Market Director, Incite Volume gives us critical mass. Economies of scale that allow for reduced costs and leaner margins. The net result is increased competitiveness, more frequent orders, and happy customers. But, unless you’re in the commodity trade, most export sales will not start out as FCL (full container load) and you’ll probably be using a distribution partner to supply end customers. Building volume takes a concerted effort. Even if you have managed to secure a partnership with one of the leading distributors in your export market, it can be a painfully slow process. The reasons for this can include: - The distributor is overloaded with brands. - The distributor’s sales force do not understand your products USP, or there are other products in the catalog they ...
