What is your (personal) moonshot?
The USA President JFK inspired the whole nation by his moonshot speech of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth and rest is history.
Neil Armstrong became the first man to land on the moon. An inspiring, incredible mission accomplished within the time frame.
Above speech became famous as moonshot speech.
But what is a moonshot?
Moonshot is a difficult task whose outcome is expected to be of great significance.
How will you define personal moonshot?
What inspires you to burn endless energy and efforts?
Will it make a meaningful impact larger than you, to make the world a little better than what you inherited?
Take time to think about following questions for yourself.
• Do you have a dream to follow?
• What is the one thing you had most like to change about the society, community or your world?
• What are you willing to struggle for?
• What is your quest?
Choose a long term goal which is big, inspiring, realistic and you are willing to work for it.
Do not worry if you do not have ready answers. You are not alone. These questions are meant to set you thinking to discover your game!
Keep looking for answers to finalize your moonshot.

Negotiation is an important life skill
We negotiate most of our waking hours. We negotiate with our team members, colleagues, bosses and vendors at work, with our kids, spouse and parents at home. We negotiate during buying or selling of an asset e.g. house, car and also conflict resolution and during salary negotiations. Negotiation is an important life skill and it contributes to our success.
If we do not negotiate well or don’t negotiate at all then there is a big chance that we are going to leave money on the table, which could have been ours. We often don’t negotiate because we feel it is inappropriate or feel uncomfortable and fear it.
“You don't get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.” Chester Karrass
