WCFC go help prevent stampedes - lend a hand |

Govind has tried hard to summarise the phenomenon of net activism followed by a sense of fulfilment without a result being achieved. Unfortunately he still does not scrape hard enough to see below the veneer. His good intentions and aspirations are unquestionable. His methods need serious reorientation. Govind you must take the bull by the horns man!
On the other hand Kanchana has been bolder and named one of the major offenders. She has identified excessive discussions as one of the weaknesses. Very good Kanchana. you have definitely demonstrated that there is a world beyond a 17 inch tube in which we actually live! Kanchana ko many salaams!
I have said many times on this board and elsewhere off RYZE too that there has to be a point at which the monster of psuedo democracy must be stopped in its tracks. The fizz goes before you pour because you can't make up your mind which glass to fill first!
1. Instead acknowledge one leader or a small - repeat small - set of people who will do the thinking. In the company where you work don't you have committees? In the house don't you have a 'father figure' to chair decisions? At some point of time you must dump the never ending stream of suggestions Govind. Remember that you have a mandate to lead and you must not follow them whom you should lead. If every joker thinks he is born to rule then let him step forward and do so instead of fillibustering or suggesting from behind.
2. Choose as starters very easy and inexpensive drives. Choose subjects which do not require high intelligence, learning, legal support. Choose subjects which do not end up confronting the government bureaucracy and the police.
3. Choose as starters subjects which are universal in their appeal. They should not be subject to ethnic preference or tastes. They should not be such as to divide on political or ideological lines. They should not project any one religious faith or its followers as either beneficiaries or samaritans.
With all this in mind I had told WCFC to lay off CAS and such subjects.
With all this in mind I had suggested starting with universally appealing activities like Tree Plantation.
Even now stop fooling yourself that the Taj Mahal was built starting from the top downwards! And that the first stone to be laid for the Kutub Minar was the one on the top!
FINALLY - you cannot substitute elbow grease with a mouse click and expect gutters to get cleaned out!
suggestion: get off the lame horse and walk holding hands with Kanchana - you will get somewhere someday!
