You CAN be a good manager, though you are not completely comfortable with numbers.

Why India does not need its poor??
Poor people are the victim of vicious cycle of poverty where causes and effects are so entangled with each other that it has become almost impossible to break it. Effects of poverty are such that they never occur alone; they are interrelated in a way that the task is difficult to deal with them. To name just a few hereditary plagues: no school or education, child labors to help their parents, lack of basic hygiene and transmission of diseases. Unemployment and very low incomes create an environment where kids can't simply go to school resulting in increase in poverty and subsequently adding them to the vicious cycle of poverty.

Happiness is for real. So is Money.
What motivates us to do well in our life and keep us going from one milestone to another? Why do school toppers want to recreate the same success stories in JEE and CAT? If happiness is indeed an illusions and all that one needs to do is to settle in to their respective comfort zones, then why do we consider Warren Buffet and Steve Jobs as our role models? Research shows that progressing toward and achieving important goals increase people’s satisfaction with their lives and themselves. Yes, we all want a great corporate career, we all want that esteemed institutional tag and we all want happiness. And happiness can be found late night in a hyper active cubicle, working on a tight deadline. Bagging the best corporate job out there in the market and the highest pay package and then working up through the corporate is one of the most conspicuous and rewarding means to happiness.

So the other day I was sitting in my room, trying to ignore my group’s entreaties to come help them out with our class presentation, and whiling away time by researching random stuff on the Internet. During my excursions, I came across a rather funny video about the FIFA World Cup which was at that moment in full swing. And even though it was about 14 minutes long, it held my attention throughout because it was so hilarious. But once that outburst of mirth had subsided, I found myself deep in thought. Because though the video had been thoroughly entertaining and the content side-splitting, it actually spoke about a couple of very serious issues - the riots happening in Brazil over the hosting of the World Cup and the rampant corruption present in football’s governing body, FIFA. For those of you who haven’t already guessed, I am talking the FIFA and the World Cup episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (see the video here).
