Today is Thalaivar Birthday. Happy Birthday Thalaivaa...Rajni is my childhood hero, SuperStar... Being a Rajnifan, my mother criticized me a stupid guy and my wife says an educated stupid. However to me, SuperStar Rajni is always a feeling, emotion. It needs to be emotionally experienced. It cant be explained in words. Rajni is like Love, God. It needs to be felt, emotionally connected and can't be understood in words. Every Rajni fans feel this emotion when R...A...J...N...I... appears in the screen. Lessons learnt as a Rajni Fan:- - I have been watching Rajni movies from 8 years onwards. Thalaivar is always faith. He always wins in the end in every movie. This gives tremendous faith and confidence from childhood. At times, this faith, brutal faith is required in life. This brutal faith(குறுட்டு நம்பிக்கை) helped me in many occasions to take leap faith in my decision making.. - Due to this blind faith, I came to Chennai as a jobless guy similar to Rajni movies after completing my Engineering,. One should always go towards opportunities, Opportunity wont come in our door steps. In movies, Rajni becomes Rich in one song. However, it took me 8 years to stand on my own legs. Uphill journey was full of pain and suffering. Eventually I was able to stand on my own feet after 8 years of hard work. By taking that first step is the key. - I adore Rajni because of his humility. As Valluvan says, அடக்கம் அமரருள் உய்க்கும். He never considered himself as Rajnikanth. He always think himself as SivajiRao. That is why, He is able to career the burden of Superstar Title on his shoulders for 40 years. He always raises his hands upwards(towards God) and it is very good way to stay detached from your success or failures. Detached Attachment from your position and title help to move forward in life. - Rajni songs are always a motivational booster for me whenever I feel demotivated in life. These are my favorite lines. ஆண் : உன் கையை நம்பி உயர்ந்திட பாரு உனக்கென எழுது ஒரு வரலாறு ஆண் : உனக்குள்ளே சக்தி இருக்கு அதை உசுப்பிட வழி பாரு சுப வேளை நாளை மாலை சூடிடு ஆண் : அட எவனுக்கு என்ன குணம் எவனுக்கு என்ன பலம் கண்டதில்லை ஒருவருமே ஒரு விதைக்குள்ள அடைபட்ட ஆலமரம் கண் விழிக்கும் அதுவரை பொறு மனமே.. Life lesson song - 2 ஆண் : ஒருவன் ஒருவன் முதலாளி உலகில் மற்றவன் தொழிலாளி விதியை நினைப்பவன் ஏமாளி அதை வென்று முடிப்பவன் அறிவாளி Life lesson song - 3 ஆண் : ஓ ஓ ஓ ஓ கிக்கு ஏறுதே ஓ ஓ ஓ ஓ வெட்கம் போனதே உள்ளுக்குள்ளே ஞானம் ஊருதே உண்மை எல்லாம் சொல்ல தோணுதே Lessons we should not learn from Rajni. - Do not learn smoking habit from Rajni

But in fact that’s the worst thing about the new car… it will stay around to disappoint you – Dan Gibert “A new car sticks around to disappoint you. But a trip to Europe is over. It evaporates. It has the good sense to go away, and you are left with nothing but a wonderful memory.” – Dan Gilbert. Most material possessions we buy stick around, allowing us to get used to them, or, in other words, experience hedonic adaptation. On the other hand investing more in experiences can more effectively increase our happiness, because experiences are, by nature, fleeting. Stop investing in material things. Most material possessions we buy stick around, allowing us to get used to them, or, in other words, experience hedonic adaptation. If we don’t buy material things in the first place, we won’t experience the hedonic adaptation and we will be able to invest more in other things - like experiences - that will more effectively increase our happiness. Experiences can make us happier than stuff.
