He emphasized on planning and making appointments one week in advance and said that is the mantra to remain ahead of others. He sought to draw a line while explaining the difference between making money as criminal and earning money as honesty signifying thereby that money earned through fair means did, in fact, bring happiness.
Khera exuded that a healthy body is a necessary prerequisite and in that endeavours, everyone should focus on physical strength and that should never be ignored. He mentioned that in this fast moving world, technology and most importantly ideas were getting obsolete almost on a daily basis. “This can either be seen as a problem or an opportunity that can be exploited. Even in this era of rapid transitions, people skills, persuasion skills and skills of prioritisation hold their ground as immovable constants and the one who masters them is destined to great achievements in life,” he added.
He also spoke about the new leadership position that India has attained under Prime Ministership of Narendra Modi. Citing the example of Ukraine, he reminded that the citizens holding Tri-Colour were given a safe passage there and this was the reason that even Pakistani based there were seen holding the Tri-Colour to get safe passage.
Speaking on the occasion, Prof Umesh Rai, JU Vice-Chancellor, hoped that the student and the University fraternity will benefit from the life lessons enumerated from thought provoking lecture of Shiv Khera. The Vice-Chancellor also quoted examples of leadership and value systems by drawing comparative in the present day era with the epic Mahabharata.
