Dr. M.A. Saleem delivers talk on ‘Everyday Discipline and Good Lifestyle for New-Age Manager’ at MYRA

Mysuru :

City Police Commissioner Dr. M. A. Saleem was invited as a guest speaker to deliver a lecture on “Everyday Discipline and a Good Lifestyle for the New-Age Manager” as part of the Insight Lecture Series at the MYRA School of Business, Yelwal, here on Jan. 8.

With his brilliant academic record and a career in the Police Force that has spanned many important positions throughout the State of Karnataka, Dr. Saleem was unique by talking about the basics of life and lifestyles.

He delivered a very simple, enthralling, extempore and well-articulated talk to the students, conveying the important message that it is very essential for all of us to first identify what it is that will make us happy in life. The ultimate aim of every person should be to make the world a better place to live in and to leave a positive footprint in life for the generations that follow, he said.

Mentioning that this has been the constant endeavour by the generations before us and that is the reason why today we are in a more comfortable world with technology, knowledge and facilities that we never had ever thought about before, he said it is now our duty to contribute consciously and sincerely.

Regular morning exercise and work-outs, reviewing our focus for the day; keeping track of our unproductive habits; starting the day with a healthy breakfast to speed up our mind and body; connecting and maintaining good relationships in personal and business life with like-minded and focused people — are all the secrets of success in both our business and personal lives, Dr. Saleem added.

He also underlined the message that happiness is not proportional to wealth. The individual yardstick for happiness is obviously different for different people — as happiness is just a state of the mind rather than of any material wealth that we accumulate.

But by adhering to a code of conduct that entails essential values such as a strong personality, strong character, credibility in thought, word and action, self-confidence, honesty and perseverance, we can make a positive difference to our people and society at large was the key message of his talk.

He concluded his talk by reiterating his request to follow traffic rules & regulations addiding that it is not worth taking dreams to the grave but to live a worthwhile life with strong ideals and values.

The event was followed by a group photo session and a tree planting activity by the Police Commissioner in the campus.

Bharath Sreenivas, Deputy Director, Placements, MYRA School of Business, introduced the session and the speaker.

S.V. Raman proposed a vote of thanks. The event was attended by special invitees, faculty, staff and students of the MYRA.
