IT’S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW- IT’S WHO YOU KNOW.

These days, Networking has become the necessity of life. To be successful in life, networking is very important. Networking is also the key to a good social life. No matter what you are; a student, an employee, a manager, owner of an organization or the higher authorities of a nation all need one thing and i.e. strong social networking.

Social networking is the social structure made up of individuals called as ‘nodes’ which are tied together by a one or more specific kind of interdependency, such as common interest, friendship, kinship, financial exchange, knowledge, prestige, etc.
To be stable in the market, in terms of career or establishment of business and for competing with others, for everything we all need a strong social networking.

In today’s era, it doesn’t matter ‘what you know’, the thing that matters here is ‘who you know’. The knowledge you are having is important but not that much, the thing that is really important here is the level of networking and sources you are having. The more contacts and recommendations you are having, the more successful you will be. These networking’s boost one’s career to the extreme.

In life, networks is our safety net- the people we contact for getting a job, or for getting a contract in our favour, for supporting a nation, by other nation, at the time of wars or other crises are invaluable.

In Business, networking is the vehicle to spread "word of mouth". Networking is the primary source of referrals. In the business world, referrals are warm leads, almost ready to buy, as opposed to what you can get from cold-calling or direct mail.
These days, a strong social networking is really needed as knowing the right person increases your chances of getting ahead. No doubt, that knowledge is necessary but it’s also true that a person with strong social networking succeeds more than the person who is having only knowledge. Competition is increasing day by day, and only knowledge or intelligence will not make you to survive in the market for a longer period, you need strong contacts and sources of referrals, people who can recommend you, to be in the market for a longer period.

As a car cannot run only with its engine, it requires wheels to move, similarly, people cannot move ahead only with their knowledge and intelligence, they need strong networking as their wheels to move ahead and to win the race of life.

IS NATION WITH ZERO CORRUPTION POSSIBLE??

Corruption lies everywhere in the world. Just the form and the degree vary. It relatively changes as the time progresses.

Corruption begins when desire overtakes deserving. It is always there from ancient times and will always be there at all places.

Corruption is the illegal use of authority, official power for private gain. It includes bribery, fraud, use of public resources, stealing of official and public resources, partiality/favouritism.

Most of the people are unaware of what effect their actions will have on others. They need money and power, as they think that money is everything.

Corruption is not confined to any particular section of the society, but it is presented in all the parts of the society. Not only rich people but poor people also involves in this type of activities, either willingly due to greed or due to so called compulsion.

Now the question arises here is that- “Is it possible to make a nation with zero corruption”??

Well, there are many answers for this question but the thing is- are we really implementing to those solutions which helps to eradicate corruption?? Answer would be probably no, because we all are corrupted. We have many anti- corruption bureaus, governments and private organizations, to remove corruption from the nation. But the thing is still the corruption rate in India is very high, the reason for this is just because the person involves in this kind of anti-corruption bureaus are themselves corrupted, Higher authorities of our nation are corrupted, every section of the society is corrupted, we all are corrupted.

Taking bribe is not only corruption but giving bribe and supporting corruption and corrupted people in any manner comes under corruption.

At the present condition, the nation with zero corruption is like a dream but it can be a reality if we think so, if we want so and if we work accordingly.
We can only eradicate corruption from our nation, by first making our self corruption free.

If you wish to make your nation corruption free then first implement it in yourself.
Because “if not you then who, if not now then when”, this is the time when you can take a pledge- ‘neither to take bribe, nor to give bribe’.
Gandhi ji once said, ‘be the change, you want to see in the world’, If you want to see your nation corruption free then first make yourself corruption free. Don’t support any means of corruption. Only then, this dream of today will be a reality of tomorrow.

Stop corruption... and save India!!!
