Talk to the no. 1 business blogger of the 21st century (who just happens to be Seth Godin), and he'll tell you, you want to be "otaku". Otaku is Japanese for 'a person with an obsession'. In today's workplace especially, you really can't get far without a healthy obsession or two. Otaku are specialists in what they do, and masters of their trade. They focus on one thing, and earn themselves the reputation of being exceptional at what they do. The...more

A car is meant to make our lives more comfortable. And that role it performs eminently. Therefore worldwide a great car is considered to be a prime personal possession. However do we need to reciprocate and give some time to our car as well so that we can make it perform better? Well there is not much we can do for our car. If we bought a good car the car manufacturer will have ensured that it performs well for a long time. And whatever little maintenance it does require the car garage takes care of it.So does that mean we have no opportunity to do our car a favor? In fact once in a while we do have a chance to give our car some attention. For example when the tail lights need to be replaced. There was a time when tail lights were simple products that had not much to choose about. And if they needed to be replaced one just got another tail light similar to the older one and made a replacement.However things have changed dramatically now. Car tail lights are complex high tech products with a lot of styling input. Just by themselves they can now significantly improve the looks of your car. Bright new tail lights will also enhance the safety of your car at night and at times when the...more

Modern life is packed with comfort and conveniences. Travel, food, health care, entertainment, education and all other aspects of our lives have benefited a lot from the progress made by man kind. What took us a lot of time, effort and cost can now be done quickly, easily and at a reasonably low cost. However along with the technological progress has also come a rational and scientific approach to things. We carefully weigh the potential benefits before we commit to a particular undertaking.Surely this rational level headed approach benefits us as well? Well it does. But there is a price. We tend not to dream as much as societies in the past did. And even if we do dream we do not chase the dream. We consider most dreams to be unrealistic and maybe even frivolous. That makes for a relatively dull boring life. There is great excitement in living ones dream.Now it is usually not easy to buy the house of ones dream. It may not be easy to buy the car of ones dream as well. But it is relatively easy to do up ones car as a dream car. And here body kits play an important role. They can make an ordinary car look very special and without a great amount of expense the car will look like a...more
