Some Other Beneficiaries of the WC

     The previous 2 months saw one of the biggest sporting events unfold in the history of Indian Cricket. THE ICC CRICKET WORLD CUP 2011. Yes!!! We did it !!!! India won the World Cup after a period 28 years. And thus started the showers of prizes and awards. The ICC and various state governments announcing enormous cash prizes and other awards to various players. The players hugely (and make no mistake, they deserved it) benefited from this gesture. It was not only the players but it was the whole nation who was benefited from the WC. The audience was treated to some fantastic cricket.
But the list of beneficiaries does not stop here. Oh no it doesn't !
      Yesterday i visited a place (public place) and it was for nearly the fifth time i wondered "Hey, these folks didn't have a TV set, right?" And I was right all the 5 times. The TV set was specially installed in the month of February esp for one thing and one thing only: The World Cup. You have TV sets being installed everywhere, hotels, gyms, shops, everywhere.
     This made me wonder and I decided to run a search on our beloved search engine Google and the results were surprising. The sales of TV sets in India shot up by as much as 50% during the World Cup period.
     Now that made me think, if there is a new TV there has to be a new cable/DTH connection. So I went back to our beloved search engine and ran a search about the number of DTH subscribers during the WC period and no surprise this time, The number of DTH subscribers also shot up by 30% .
     So it was not only the players and the audience (not to mention ESPN STAR) that benefited due to this sporting extravaganza, but the list of  beneficiaries goes way beyond including the TV and DTH companies.

Dig Deep

     Depth.... It has a deep meaning. Depth is very important in ones life. Depth can be associated with many things in our life. And it is this depth that decides your personality.
     Depth of  knowledge for instance. I know people always say that knowledge, no matter how small or about any topic, never goes waste. But having an in-depth knowledge about anything adds a new dimension to your knowledge. Depth of knowledge gives you confidence
      Then there is the Depth in Feelings. Superficial feelings for someone/something are never genuine and never last. Feelings that come from within, from the depth of ones heart are that ones that make a difference. Depth of Feelings makes you human and makes your life worth living.
     Then comes the depth which i believe is one of the most important: Depth of Thoughts. The ability to think beyond. This depth is clearly reflected in everything a person does, from his conversation to his behavior and that is why I believe is the most important of all. It is this depth of thoughts or thinking that separates the wise from the rest. Also, unlike the previous two depths, this one is very difficult (almost impossible) to develop/learn.
     DEPTH, its just a 5 letter word but has a deep meaning to it......
