GUIDING PRINCIPLES
Nothing worthwhile is ever achieved
Without deep thought and hard work;
One must think for oneself and never
Accept at their face value slogans and
Catch phrases;
One must forever strive for excellence,
Or even perfection, in any task, however
Small, and never be satisfied with the
Second best.
No success or achievement in material
Terms is worthwhile unless it serves the
Needs or interests of the country and
Its people and is achieved by far
And honest means;
Good human relations not only
Bring great personal rewards but
Are essential to the success of
Any enterprise.
- J.R.D. Tata,
Bharat Ratna
