The amount of respect you get is not proportional to what you deserve. Most of the times, you get less than your Net Worth (NW). That is, your Actual Influence (AI) is less than your NW. Some rare but clever people get much more than their NW. This shortfall or gap is known as the Influence Gap (IG).
IG = NW - AI
Another, vital thing
is Social Efficiency (SI), expressed by the following
expression-
AI
Social Efficiency (SI) =
------------ X 100
NW
SI is never 100% for the
majority, but if your average social efficiency is less than 80%,
the society you live in has not accepted or validated you. If the same
continues for long, you will soon lose your present status and
someone else will replace you.
Having 85% and
above is a good score. If you are very efficient or your efficiency
increases day-by-day, you are more free and exercise enough influence to
your advantage. The Social Meter supports you.
You might have
seen good-for-nothing people exercising a good deal of influence.
You might have also seen persons having the calibre of a genius or a great person, but their share of influence is almost null!
Life is highly
Unpredictable. There is no just distribution of tangibles or
intangibles. We are living in a No Guarantee Era. Every second
person, whether he is a celebrity or a pauper, preaches to work hard
and harder. However, no one cares to make a point that you might not
succeed despite all your hard work! Moreover, nobody bothers to discuss the time-period required
to hit the target.
Finally, one thinks that one has to be a superman
in order to be accepted and draw maximum influence. However, it badly
hurts when you find that even worthless persons are more talked about than
you. This leads to a state of Pathetic Dilemma. Again, no book
talks about why one did not get one's quota of influence or say
respect (in order to be more precise and formal).
Thereafter, such
people start analysing their past and reach the state when
they blame all their so-called lacks. For example:
* I'm short [were you a
dwarf?]
* I'm too tall [were you
a giant?]
* because I was not
having a car... [was he having a Limousine?]
* I was different [no
two fingers are the same.]
* I was really stupid
then... [were they a genius by then?]
* He was much smarter
than me... [were you the most stupid person in existence?]
* Actually, I'm not
smart and intelligent...Oh! That was by chance that I stood first in the
race/exams... [You studied. You wrote the exam. You did not cheat. and
now you blame yourself for good results as well! really surprising Pathetic!]
* My teeth were
not white [and her father was the National Dentist!]
* She liked rich people,
I belonged to a middle class family [if she was a princess, why was
enrolled at such a college where 'filthy' (because you think you are so)
students like you studied?]
* My speech was not good
[was he an incarnation of Dale Carnegie?]
* My attitude was wrong
[Whatever you do is always wrong. Whatever he does is always right.
There is only one thing right here so far that something is wrong with your own consciousness!]
* Unlike us, they were
really cool... [Yes, you were wrong because you always felt so. People
like you breed inferiority complex.]
* I was surrounded with
so many problems [and he was the direct descendant of the gods in the heaven!]
Some Basic Facts:
* First, You always
consider yourself a 'big' fool and then try 'hard' to prove it wrong. The
more you try, the weaker you become. Even if you reach some favourable
results, the influence attained fades soon.
Lesson:
Do what you want. Stop
striving for perfection. Do what you like. Find the purpose and the means
will follow. This earth is not composed of supermen. You
may find drunkards and idlers of today being the leaders of tomorrow. Now,
this sparks off the debate: The More Educated (perfection/hardwork)
versus The more Liked (The Social Code). That is why actors or players
easily become politicians without even knowing the 's' of Social Service. On
the other hand, masters of political science and sociology remain 'Psephologists'
busy framing exit polls on paid news!
'Just think. what is missing? Something is wrong or misplaced. There is something that we don't know. what is that?'
[Think. However, don't
think about the small 'w' and the formatting used here.]
Achievements: Not in years, but in seconds.
These few seconds define our life.
People win medals in
years, not everyday. A great task is accomplished once, but remains in
the memory of people for years.
A fighter undergoes training for years; however, if he does not win the final match, he remains a loser.
