Extracts from biography of kalpana chawla

Recently I have been through the biography of Kalpana Chawla, the real star from India. The following are the inspiring statements in her own words :

  • I think inspiration and tied with it is motivation, for me, definitely, it comes every day from all people in all walks of life. It's easy for me to be motivated and inspired by seeing somebody who just goes all out to do something.
  • The path from dreams to reality does exist. May you have the vision to find it, the courage to get onto it and the perseverance to follow it.
  • Religion is something which gives you peace of mind. And to me flying brings tremendous peace and satisfaction - so flying is my religion.
  • Do some thing because you really want to do it. If you're doing it just for the goal, and don't enjoy the path, then I think you're cheating yourself.
  • You just need to put in time and effort, but don't be too oriented towards the goal. You must enjoy the journey, because whether or not you get there, you really must have fun on the way.
  • There are people who accept you because it's a novelty and people who discourage you because it's just a novelty. If they can change you - you too, can change them.
All these were truly inspiring and motivating so I just made a note of them here....

Determination Beyond the skies......


Recently I read a book about Kalpana Chawla....She has the strongest determination among the individuals i know. She is one such great person that every body has to admire rite from her tender age. Kalpana Chawla's love of flying led to her career as a NASA astronaut. She started her higher education in India, earning a B.S. in aeronautical engineering from Punjab Engineering College in 1982. Moving to the U.S., she turned to aerospace engineering and received her M.S. from the University of Texas and her Ph.D. from the University of Colorado. Chawla joined NASA in 1995 and was assigned as mission specialist on the space shuttle STS-87 in 1997, becoming the first Indian-American woman to go into space. She was a crew member on the Shuttle Columbia when it broke up upon reentry to the Earth's atmosphere in February 2003. No one can imagine how she hurled over the obstacles, turned down the rejections from her father [though he was very easily convinced by others, he was a good man...]. Those are aspects that give high inspiration. I offer my tribute to this brave Indian girl. HATS OFF TO HER.
