Andre Agassi : OPEN (Review)

A big big big Tennis Fan and just got amazed to read the magnificent, one of the best Autobiography rated ever OPEN by legendary tennis player Andre Agassi. Also acclaimed as The Punisher for to make sure that every point needed sweat like hell.
8 times Grand Slam winner, only 4th player to win all the grand slams and Gold in Olympics.
Married to another women's legendary tennis superstar Steffi Graff (22 Grand Slams plus Olympic Gold).
The novel is very inspiring and emotional that how a middle-class boy who hated tennis all his life, superseded the many legendary players and established his own aura and image.
After reading it felt like I have lived a life with him, his journey from a 7-year old kid hitting machine ball in the backyard to end up world number 1, 60 career titles and what not.

The world has seen one of the best rivalries between Sampras And Agassi, his fight with Boris Becker and even the divorce from TV sensation Brooke Shields. This man has all in his life with the most reputed name in the world of Tennis era.

When I started watching tennis back in 2004 I used to ask my father who is this man who used to reach around 4th round and lost still everyone loved him but today I got all the answers.

All the moments were beautifully organized and described by the Agassi.
I will not even try to write the summary because a man's journey can't be explained in few restricted words.
But yes I got astonished after reading it and would recommend to every tennis fan.

The way he started and gradually won all the slams with regards to that he hated it.
His insane father who at the end requested him to quit. His peers his team and all ups and downs in his life.

Andre Agassi one of the most entertaining tennis players world ever seen.

Digital MSME Lending in India

1. Introduction With the fifth-highest GDP in the world and a thriving business environment, India has one of the fastest-growing economies in the world.  MSMEs, or the 55 to 60 million micro, small, and medium-sized businesses currently operating in India, are at the center of this landscape. The contribution of MSMEs to India's GDP is outstanding, but it is approximately 10 percentage points lower than in the US and 23 percentage points lower than in China. Millions of MSMEs need more paperwork to obtain a formal loan. Many need more adequate collateral or have financial information that needs to be more accurate or included.  A total of INR 45 L Cr ($600 billion) in MSME credit demand is anticipated for 2018. With interest rates at least twice as high as formal credit, informal credit will meet around 40% of that demand. 2.  The Evolving MSME Landscape MSMEs in India are formalizing (becoming businesses with government permits or registrations) and digitizing (adopting...

Richard Bach : Jonathan Livingston Seagull (Review)

A decent fable, written by Richard Bach, based on the life of a Gull who lived on the shore. The main aim of their life was to collect food for their survival. The story is a message to all those who follow their passion irrespective of what society thinks about them. There is a basic human tendency which complies with Newton's first law that a body remains in the original state unless external force applied. Whenever one tries to do anything new and innovative, people misjudge him and try to demotivate him. This message is beautifully described through the life of a similar Gull who wanted to lead a different life than his flock. The Gull only wanted to fly as every day was the last day of its life. After a lot of practice and hard work, it finally succeeded to attain a record speed. But owing to the tendency of their flock, they ousted the Gull. But as the saying goes, "God helps those who help themselves", the Gull never left its path and worked vigorously for ...
