Personality Trait: Theory of Relativity

Water is otherwise called H2O.Same is its chemical composition everywhere but the colour of water found in different oceans vary accordingly. Why this? This question gave an impetus to Einstein’s theory of relativity. In a layman’s parlance the colour of water is not same always; it is relatively related with each other. Irrespective of all castes, classes the human beings have a unique race called the human race. But the personality of individual is not same everywhere. It varies. We come across many people in our day-to-day lives with numerous personalities .If I may like the person-x, that does not signify that you also like him. Humans are very subjective. In an interview everybody from the panel of judges may not like the same interviewee. Some may like and some may not like him. Again comes the theory of relativity. The person I like,you may not like and the person you like,I may not like. The great dramatist Shakespeare says that there is nothing good or bad  but thinking makes it so. American poet Sylvia Plath composes like as follows,"I like people too much or not at all, I have got to go down deep , to fall into people to really know them.

So the personality comes from 3 factors most essentially

(1)Heredity-Some characteristics are a keep-sake to us by genetic engineering. We are divinely-gifted to some personifications within us.

(2)Environment-Our family provides us some forms of primary socialization. We got some characteristics from the cultural up-bringing.

(3)Situation-Situations are dynamic or in other words change is the only constant. Man reacts differently to various situations. A person’s behavior at a particular situation may not be similar to his behavior at another period of time. Everything is situational. To judge a human’s personality w.r.t  a particular  situation is a vague phenomenon.

So every human is relatively-related to each other.Nobody is good or bad.Thinking makes it so. Anne Frank,the thirteen year old girl,who died of the holocaust ,says something which may supersedes everything.She says despite everything,people are good at heart.Everybody has inside of him a piece good news.I simply cannot build my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion,misery and death.She may be right in saying so.She would have been the best selling writer of the world if not died in the Hitler's concentration camp.Still she says so.Really human personality is a very complex issue.

London-Once the World Capital of MNCs' Framework:America Eclipsed

A fundamental discovery of Economics-money has changed the world scenario.When it is a question of money,everybody is of same religion.In this age of money,profit is the primary motive.The capitalists' expenditure of their national production was not saturated.Too much of the savings was bad for the economy.So they invest goods and services outside their country of origin.They find these demands in the unsaturated markets in the under-developed countries.This Economic Imperialism (globalization) has canvased the blueprint of MNCs. MNCs are the trans-national corporations,cosmo-corps or multinational enterprise that produces goods & services outside their country of origin.Everybody wishes to work in MNCs in the age of money.All understands the language of money. The three reasons for the MNCs in the under developed countries to grow are as follows. Labour is cheap in the under developed parts of the world.English speaking population is more.The number of graduates each year is up to the mark.
Let's focus on the ground-breaking history of  Europe,which experienced a series of remarkable changes by the end of the Middle Ages with the disintegration of feudalism.(1)Renaissance (2)Voyages and discovery.In the race among the European countries with a economic motive and geographical curiosity to know the unknown world,the English eclipsed the rest.This imperial thrust was the reason for the Britain's growing transatlantic commerce and it's spectacular colonial gains.The City of London is the ancient core of the present-day London.The streets of the city of London reflects its trading origins.Going back to the Roman times,it was evaded & established by the Romans and named as Londinium with a trace of trade.It is a financial centre with a reciprocation between the local & the national government,an international port because of its advantageous location,i.e,it is at the furthest point inland and the Thames is a tidal river which is an ease for the accessibility of the sea-going ships.Once it was the whole earth emporium as it was importing the colonial goods from Asia & Africa etc & re-exporting them in the European countries and restricting by high price for exporting the products to the colonies. Furthermore it is a vast retail and entertainment hub.It went from being a producing unit to an unit based on services.It initiated the age of rationing and ended it as an economy based on consumerism.Now the city has expanded to the present day's London.Now it has become the US style neo-liberal economies in Europe which began with a number of privatization,deregulation etc under Margaret Thatcher and the Big Bang in the city of London in 1986.Grand neo-liberal projects like Canary Wharf is described as a masters-of -the universe syndrome,as it has conspired to change the face of the London.Its hubristic buildings has towered above the poorest and most deprived parts of London.Inequality increases as the London of most ordinary Londoner is very different from the new rich.This form of westernization is spreading all through the globe.Command over the English language,concept of the'New Women' ,towering the skyscrapers in form of MNCs,where no intimation no humanity ,& no continuum between the past and the present and working there for long hours,understanding the taste of money,high-profile life style is the western ethics spreading like virus everywhere.But now-a-days the US economy has superseded the English in terms of the largest economy in the world arena.Yes the US has eclipsed the UK in terms of nominal GDP growth.But the platform was the city of London where everything had once initialized.

A conservatory is a green-house and it is attached to a house,on only one side in the colder regions of the world as if a purpose to conserve the heat.Through a conservatory,we can see the physical entities,that are placed  outside of it.Even we can feel the intensity of the weather from  the sun-room. A subsequent reflection will make a resolution that ,London is just like a conservatory.The London's mob is full of spaces where different nationalities and races from the nook and corner of the world is seen.London is not,and never has been a city of native Londoners.For nearly all of its history it has been fed by migration.The English civilization or so-called westernization is metaphysically present everywhere in the world in the same way as the visibility from the micro glass-house to the cosmos.

Global Coffee-houses:Have a cup of it!

Modernist writer Katherine Mansfield depicts the importance of a cup of tea in her famous short story,'A Cup Of Tea',where a poor girl craves to have it but never gets it till the story ends.Beverages are essential in our day-to-day life.
Beverage is a French terminology.It is rarely used in British English.It defines the consumable drink other than water.People love to spend time in the casual drinking places.Tea,coffee,beer,liquor,milk,juice are the beverages people often prefer to have in their spare time apart from breakfast,lunch and dinner.Coffee shops serve prepared coffee and other hot beverages.These are called coffee-houses. These are one kind of cafe. Cafe may refer to coffee house,tea room,bar etc.Coffee houses have the common characteristics like bar and restaurant.These are not similar to the cafeteria which are within the institutions. Espresso bars are a type of coffee house.It serves a creamy foamed coffee,called as espresso.

To invite someone to your home for a cup of tea is a symbol of homely affection.To invite someone to have a cup of coffee other than home is also a gesture of love,symbolized by style.It becomes the iconic fashion when the Starbucks and the Costa Coffee are the target locations for you.

Fast Food:First World Country(U.S.A)

Once the Welsh poet William Henry Davis composed a brilliant poem Leisure.The opening lines were as  follows, "What is this life,if full of care,
                We have no time to stand and stare."
Sing it silently or do a rhetoric,it is very true.As the civilization progresses, the developed countries become the torch bearers to the rest of the world in terms of economical progress.In this materialistic world people became very busy in their life.This is the platform of the establishment of the fast food restaurants in the first world countries,especially in the USA.Like the torch that passes from runner to runner,the idea of fast food restaurant is spreading to the nook and corner of the world.

1.McDonald's:

The fast food restaurants are also known as quick service restaurant.Without waiting one can take the food to keep abreast his hectic day.People come to dine here for celebrations also.A subsequent reflection will bring a deep understanding that USA is the global capitalist in the era of economic imperialism.Furthermore the edifice of such fast food industry has been penetrated from the daily schedules of work dynamics of mass.Everywhere it is expanding.

Management Guru-Chanakya

Had the scenario been different as below, the world would have definitely known Niccolo Machiavelli as the Italian Chanakya .But  Chanakya,a professor of Takshashila University is known as the Indian Machiavelli. His works were 1800 yrs earlier than the Italian diplomat Niccolo Machiavelli’s. As his works were lost by the end of the Gupta dynasty and discovered in the year 1915, so he was not known to this world before.

Thanks to Chanakya’s outstanding strategy for, it was he, who was credited for the establishment of the Maurya  Empire which was the first empire among  archeologically recorded history. His initial attempts with Chandragupta Maurya to defeat the Nanda dynasty failed.He heard a mother scolding her child to prefer the cooler edges as he burnt his hand by eating porridge from the middle of it, as  mothers are the best managers and true socialization of a baby comes from her, he knew his strategic error and attacked the periphery of the Nanda dynasty  instead of focusing on Magadha. He was succeeded. Nobody will think like him. That’s why when a genius’ mind ceases to work, his cognition initiates.

Who will dare to stop the greatest conqueror of the world, Alexander-the great’s army to conquer the Maurya Empire? He did so by infiltrating the Greek army by spreading the rumours about greatness of the Indian army. He is the greatest diplomat, manipulative thinker .

It is believed that he has authored the Arthashatra and Neetishatra.The Arthashatra  discusses about monetary policies, fiscal policies, international relations, welfare economics ,war strategies and outlines the duty of a ruler. The Neetishatra  is about how to lead an ideal way of life.His contribution to the field of Economics and political science is tremendous.

Chanakya,the then chief advisor of Chandragupta Maurya was giving small doses of poison to the king to make him immune to it,as a strategy against the enemies .Unknowingly the king gave some food to the queen when she was nine months pregnant. The queen could not resist and died.Chanakya saved  the heir to the throne,Bindusara by cutting the queen’s belly.His management skills are really brilliant.He is the real Management-guru,the world has seen before.

His quotations are soul-touching.His wisdom is divinely-gifted. His way of thinking  is applicable to the contemporary field of management, business,commerce,economics,politics,diplomacy.A question arises frequently to our mind that unscrupulous methods are not legally accepted,so why we will follow Chanakya.His own saying that ,  “ A person should not be too honest. Straight trees are cut first and honest people are screwed first” is it’s answer.

It is very true. Another example is the Lord Krishna in the great Indian epic Mahabharat.Here the god himself plays lots of tricks with diplomacies to deceive the enemies. But we should focuses on one thing which is above all,i.e,”All ambitions are lawful, except those which climb upward on the miseries or credulities of mankind”.
