MONDAY MUSE (19 January 2009)
 
LAWN
 
The best of institutional edifices are enhanced by the relief of lush green 
lawns. A visitor to one such exciting creation was so impressed by the 
meticulously maintained lawns that he insisted on meeting the gardener who 
looked after the lawns.
 
When asked by the visitor of the secret behind the lawn, the wise gardener 
replied, 'The first part is difficult… levelling the land as per design, 
choosing and adding the right top soil, arranging the drainage and other things 
that are available in books. The second part is simple and easy… we need to 
just regularly mow the lawn, weed it and water it. Keep doing that and you get 
a lawn that continues to be like this.' 
 
What is true for the lawn is true for every endeavour for excellence. So often, 
we give our best while creating something. We manage the difficult part but 
falter at the easy part. Well begun, it is said, is half done. But if we do not 
keep the consistency, our best start can be undone. 
 
Consistency is the hall mark of the real achievers. For they keep working to 
maintain a positive attitude and approach to the things they start. They 
buttress their vision with a mind-set of mission and the ability to be both, 
dogged and diligent. Steadfastness holds the key to greater successes. 
Persistence is a value that ensures that we can BE BETTER at optimising a good 
start. 
 
No lawn can remain beautiful without a gardener’s sense of mission… 
To BE BETTER we must back initiative with dedicated determination!
