 man once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God.  
 
Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised, he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two statues of the same idol?" 
 
"No," said the sculptor without looking up, "We need   only one, but the first one got damaged at the
 last stage." 
 
The gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage. "Where is the damage?" he asked.
 
"There is a scratch on the nose of the idol." said the sculptor, still busy with his work. 
 
"Where are you going to install the idol?"
 The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar twenty feet high. 
 
"If the idol is that far, who is going to
 know that there is a scratch on the nose?" the gentleman asked.
The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said, "I will know it."   
The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether someone else appreciates it or not. 
"Excellence" is a drive from inside, not outside. 
Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction and excellence

Harnessing the Demographic Dividends Through Investments in Youth

African Presidents convened in Addis Ababa from 28th January to discuss the continents economic progress. The African Union (AU) has chosen 2017 to be the year of the African youth and dedicated the theme for the summit “Harnessing the Demographic Dividends through Investments in Youth” to young people. Demographic dividend according to the United Nations Population Fund is the economic growth potential that can result from a change in a population’s age structure.
