“You are an AAA rated person with A in caps,” I was told. In the world of finance, where companies are given credit ratings, AAA is one of the best credit ratings one can have. Add a plus to enhance it even further. So, companies with AAA+ are even more valuable and worth investing.
I grinned at being rated so high. But the smile lasted only for a short while as I was told the full form of it. This is what I did: Assumed, Advised and Amplified everyone’s problems. My bubble of happiness immediately burst and I hung my face. Was I such a bad person to communicate with?

कर्तव्य की भावना से कार्य में उत्कृष्ठता (excellence)
क ई तरह की व्यवस्थाएँ हैं, जो हमें सचेत करती हैं कि हमें क्या करना है। माता-पिता, समाज, कानून आदि के प्रति हमारे कुछ उत्तरदायित्व होते हैं, कर्तव्य व व्यवहार के कुछ नियम होते हैं जिनका हमें पूर्ण रूप से पालन करना होता है, परन्तु बहुत से लोग अपने कर्तव्यों के प्रति लापरवाह होते हैं, उन्हें अपने कर्तव्य पालन करना पसंद नहीं है ।
