one of my most satisfying day....... cont
Monday 11th August morning brought wonderful news for my rotary dist group. KB was elected as RIP for 2011-12. From the phone calls made by senior PDGs, I gathered and cud make out that this was wonderful news for our group and all were happy that they were able to interact with KB just almost a ten days ago during RCTGC installation. In fact everyone was thankful and appreciated that because of my invitation they got such opportunity. I also talked to KB and he remembered me from installation (as induction master) and was happy that I had called. In fact he also inquired about my Microcredit book which I was supposed to send him.
Also the hangover and stuttering of 1st august still remains. Still getting congratulatory calls and emails. Also continuing of my previous post about points which made me extremely happy;
Ms D.Doshi a senior member of a very old club congratulating me for being district trainer and inquiring if I can come to train their club. That was really a highpoint!
Or that PDG JTV spoke for one hour next day and inviting me to dinner
Or that people flocking me after the function just to talk with me, give compliments and inquire if I can help them in public speaking
In fact today also their directors are totally relying on me for their projects and calling me to help them!!
In short still the success hangover has not gone away. So I am still happy.
And lastly I realize that since president Girdhar and I are clicking of; I have a chance to create a family-environment club which I had always dreamed of.

One of my satisfying and rewarding day
1st August Saturday was one of the most rewarding and satisfying day of my Rotary life. Even after couple of days I am still basking in the afterglow of the success of the event. On Saturday RCTGC had its first ever installation at a grand venue at TipTop plaza and what a evening it turned out to be. Till today I am receiving compliments for that evening.
The background is that- RCTGC was having its first ever installation. And my new found friend Girdhar wanted it to be an event to be remembered for long long time to come. And I thought why not? And it also gave me opportunity to authenticate not only my relations within 4way group but also my equations with the PDGs in group. I was always a team man and always offered everything I had to the team/group without asking for anything in return. It was another matter that appreciation from seniors was rare in coming. But the event was acid test of how much these PDGs and seniors valued me.
And eventually on that matter, I passed with flying colors. Whatever doubts I had, that my selfless work may not be recognized by my own, was put to rest on that day. On Saturday many PDGs honored me by not only gracing the occasion but also openly declaring the fact that the prime reason for their coming was my forceful request to them. Not only PDGs but seniors in group also came without fail. And the event certainly created a uproar in Thane Rotary. Realy, the event happened in a much better way then anyone of us could imagine
About the function, the time management was perfect, the presentations, the speeches the intros by JG and RK were flawless and the intros by member’s children was icing on cake. The minute details I had visualized and rehearsed turned out as per plan. in fact the combination of Girdhar and me made the function a successfull one.
As I look back on that I am trying to pinpoint as to which point made me more happier. After so many days I am still not able to decide on that.
Is it the fact that I got so many compliments from all quarters not only for the event organising but for my induction speech?
I always knew that my special induction speech (reading for 8-10 mins without referring to any piece of paper) would be a hit but never thought it would be so super duper blockbuster.
Is it the fact that 11 PDGs a PIRID and numerous district officials attended the function made my day?
All PDGs said that the induction speech was the best one they have heard in their life (and that was a huge compliment).
The PDGs also thought no one in our district can recite like that
and the ULTIMATE COMPLIMENT I recieved was from PRID KB "Satish u r one of the finest Rotarian I have ever met and you will make your district proud'
Other Quotes incl
PDG GV said that the event made him feel like he was attending district conference.
PDG SP felt very proud of myself–his president- and was vary happy that Pres Girdhar had appreciated my work.
PDG UK commented that RCTGC was lucky have me as their supporter and requested me to continue the association with them
PDG SR said this was the best installation of a new club in his life.
PDG BD said that even top Mumbai do not have 11 PDGs as guests.
The new Rotarians and their spouses and their children were enamored by my presence in all the formation period. They were genuinely sad that my visits would now be rare in their club. But I was happy that so many invited me to their house for dinner. That will be remembered by me for long time
