In this overly competitive world of ours, filled with a plethora of challenges and opportunities, lies the need to fill the vacuum of mediocrity (not settling for less). There is no other more rewarding procedure, than for an individual to certainly be at the top of the game. I am delighted to have transited to a crucial point in this newsletter where I can share the nuggets that are seldom pronounced or often not highlighted, but turn out to be some of the major factors that separate the chaff from the wheat. One of such is understanding the efficacy of DISTINCTIVE-NESS!

To start with, from studying the lives of distinguished personalities and through my experience over the years, I deciphered that distinctiveness is an unusual quality that is needed for almost anything and everything we do. No one achieves anything extraordinary without trying to be distinct. The act of doing things in a common way cannot produce an uncommon result. A unique result is gotten by doing things in an uncommon manner. A lot of people get same results for doing things the same way it has always been done, without introducing new ideas and brilliant concepts.
