What are some small things that matter a lot?

A little about me…Well I used be a software engineer, until one day I decided to quit my 9to5 job and start a business of my own. The decision was huge without the easy approval of my parents.
He pushed me towards my passion even though it would cost us living in separate cities. Amidst all these emotional and financial turmoil, I started my own small restaurant in my hometown.
Like most of the budding entrepreneur, my journey was full of failure, hardships and challenges.
During my initial days as the restaurant owner, my per day sale was as low as 106 Rupees. On one such day when I was feeling really low and mixed feeling of sadness,despair, doubt and regret crept in, I texted him
Him: what's your lowest sale?
Me: 106 Rupees. I guess the lowest sale record will be broken today. I was able to sell coffee of worth Rupees 90 only!!
*He immediately transfered 500 into my business bank account*
Me : 500??
Him: Your lowest sale record shouldn't be broken.
It wasn't the 500 rupees that mattered, it was his faith in me and gesture that said “I got your back” that put a smile on my face for the rest of the day .
It has been one year since this message, and yes 106 is the lowest sale till date. I have come a long way from 106 to upto 10k sale per day, but I still remember that day and his small effort to boost my spirit!!
That's the small thing which mattered a lot to me !

Why is Mukesh Ambani more successful than Anil Ambani?

Many years ago, I interviewed someone from a company called John Crane, which supplies equipment to the oil and gas sector. This guy was a top official and he had come down from the US for a meeting with Mukesh Ambani. So, I asked him about his experience of dealing with the   elder Ambani brother. This is what he said: “Mukesh bhai is a wonderful person. But when he is seating at the negotiation table, very few can match his business acumen and homework. In fact, after the deal was over and we shook hands, I had to check if my hand was still with me. He's that sharp!” The above description of Mukesh Ambani is definitely a key reason why he is more successful than Anil Ambani! Above: The focus was always different! The death of their father Dhirubhai in 2002 sparked a battle for control which ultimately lead to the split of the Reliance Group. Their mother brokered a demerger in 2005, which gave Mukesh control of oil and gas, petrochemicals, refining and manuf...

What are the best tricks to keep yourself motivated?

Jeff bezos was asked how he became so   passionate . Most expected a reply long and sour, but he kept it short and sweet: “ You don’t choose your passions . Your passions CHOOSE YOU.” THE MOTIVATION HACK I. YOUR DREAM is CALLING YOU . . . PICK UP! Before he starred in the role as rapper "Jay-Z," became a   billionaire   and married BeyoncĂ© ,   Shawn Carter   was just one of the guys in the hood. In Brooklyn, Carter was the gangly dude seen around town "walking down the street eating a $1 slice of pizza." Carter—a high school dropout—found himself in the unwanted position of street pharmacist. It was in the midst of petty drug-dealing, however, that Carter’s   dream came calling. In an interview with   Oprah , Carter recalled: I use to stand outside the bodega, and my mind would be overflowed with these poems . . . ya know. It got to a point where I’d have to rush inside the store to borrow a pen and brown paper bag t...
