Soldier of Fortune

Soldier of Fortune
在Time Digest, September, 2007中有一篇"Soldier of Fortune"介紹K.P. Singh這一位印度最富有的房地產開發商。他奮鬥的歷程及前瞻性的眼光令人印象深刻。

1. New Delhi的Jantar Mantar天文臺給予他的啟發：
  "Why is it that we can't be forward looking in our development and start to do
  something ahead of the time?"
2. 他和Rajiv Gandhi的巧遇為他的一生及印度的發展帶來極大的影響：
  "Their two-hour conversation was "the birth of the entire urban-development
   policy of India today.
  "Meeting Gandhi was lucky in one way. But it wasn't only luck. It gave me an   
  opportunity to fight.

3. K.P. Singh說他的公司"likes to think big"。
在文章最後的訪談，K.P. Singh提到印度建國頭60年的哲學為"to think small, make small buildings and never to think that we could make bigger things, better things."但是他以一生的經歷提出反問：
"I ask you, why can't we be excellent?"  

K.P. Singh憑藉insight, guts和luck創造他的房地產王國，正是相信自己，"think big"與追求卓越的最佳寫照。
