@Usha I am only saving my own articles but I am surprised to see that I am getting points even for that. And if someone feels I am in the race for #1 spot they are badly mistaken. Some members are watching and following me everywhere what I am watching. I never thought I will be given points for clicking at my own posts.
I think you get points for clicking on your articles as well because sometime back, I wanted to check on all my articles and ended up having so many points, probably the only time I managed to climb the leader board. As far as other members are concerned, why should others not get to the top ? what is wrong with that ? And anyway , now with no rules in place, it is a merry go round for all..

Practically, there is only one activity and that is of article writing. So my suggestion is that all may concentrate on writing and reading articles. The discussion in forum can just give hint on new articles. When you find any good topic for discussion in forum, just pick this and write an article instead of discussing further in forum. We cannot bring changes but can change ourselves.
Reading articles for gaining knowledge is a good thing but members are clicking anyway mainly to gain points. So, there is no point in blaming anyone here since all are doing it at some point or the other.If the admin had brought in some measures where points are given only when you post some feedback on the article it would have helped all..

Why to fear from Modi, if some one is speaking rubbish pubic will teach them lesson.
True. Public knows what's right and what's not. That's why, they cautioned Modi, when he he was losing opportunities at his disposal
Modi is not dictator. Running government is not easy job. BJP also know about about the statement of this leader. It is assured that at right time and at right platform BJP president will warned him.
Most of the BJP members have their base in either RSS or VHP and they lean towards Hinduism which is definitely not a bad thing at all in a country that is predominantly Hindu. The problem comes when they utter their desires of bringing in Hindu culture back into the society which has been divided and redivided over the years based on caste and religion and made so volatile that anything that is natural looks unnatural and inflammatory. However, it is too late and difficult to change things now , so one has to adapt and bring in changes slowly if at all..

Came across this quote from Albert Einstein - "Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value."
Charles Darwin - "It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."
I guess success is not about making money or gaining power or perfection but also about survivial !
These are really nice quotes and very meaningful as well. I always believe success comes after failure. If I want to be successful I must see failures in my life.
Of course success becomes much more meaningful when it comes after failure... We have so many such example around us , celebrities and Industrialists even common people who taste success after failure and years of hard work. At the same time success comes with its own complications ..
Yes agree. The most important complication is the hard work and mental stress. However once you get out of failures this mental stress becomes happiness.
True, it is also true that we have to pay a price for everything whether it is career, personal happiness or success. Nothing in life comes free. Recently I happened to read a biography of a multi millionaire based in UK , where he writes that having unlimited amount of money was a burden to him , so he gave most of it away, even his properties and other assets were given away, some to his children and some to other organisations, after which when he had just enough , he found inner peace, for a while. But being used to hard and dedicated work he could not stay away from his work , so he again became busy and ended up being as rich in a few more years ! Again the same restlessness..

Consistent and relentless efforts pave the way to Success. After this type of efforts, an individual learns that success is nothing but doing what's right the right way at the right time.However, knowing that Success is not final, failure is not fatal, will cause tons of Happiness even with smallest of the smallest Success.
