Dear Sir,
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful work. Appreciate Shyamlal's vision and capability to look for an answer at the darkest hour.
True to your words, it’s the process we need to trust on. The testing times toss us out of our zone and we no longer remain in touch with ourselves. That becomes our darkest hour. Saving a small amount of gut to pull us out of it, remains the key. The upbeat feeling and possibility thinking, tags along that special amount of gut!

Dear profRaj
Thanks for the article submitted.
I feel deeply hurt at the casual manner in which names are used to grab attention.
I have just one point to make - is it justified (or necessary) to use the name of a renowned management guru in the heading ??
Except a passing reference, I could not find any worthwhile connection in the story. Also, I have serious doubts, whether the writer has seriously gone through the works of Prof. C.K. Prahalad, as it is difficult to remain untouched or unmoved by the passion and the 'milk of human kindness' that oozes out of Prahalad's management thoughts. He was a proponent of what can be called "humane" management.
I think such ploys/devices to attract attention are uncalled for. Moreover, they also tend to un-necessarily besmirch the reputation of great thinkers, who are no longer with us. Trainers need to be more sensitive and better at soft skills, and the higher one rises, more is one's responsibility towards the society and its members at large.
Prof. C.K. Prahalad passed away on April 16, 2010; but he shall always be remembered as one of the best Management Gurus of all time and one of the nicest of human beings.
"A hallmark of Prahalad's career was his belief that business must serve the cause of humanity as it produces profit. This theme was established early on in his work on strategic intent, arguing that imagination, not resources, was a key driver of corporate performance. He continued to build on his work exploring the human impact of business as he developed new strategic frameworks. His most ambitious work, The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid, outlined a model for large firms to engage with the world's poor, significantly changing the assumptions of governments, corporations and NGOs about how to address the issue of global poverty."
