What's in the name?

-

Banhishikha Ghorai!!!
Yes, that's my name and Ghorai is my surname. I am from Bengal. My mother tongue is Bengali and I respect my language.
Banhi means "fire" and Shikha means "flame".
My father has to choose this name because he has always admired Rabindranath Tagore.
The history behind my name is a poem where Banhishikha, the word is used, written by Rabindranath Tagore.

 "Jago nari jago banhishikha
Jago swaha simonte roktotika"
- Rabindranath Tagore

Yes, it matches my personality. Fire represents passion, energy, and motivation. It has great power for forging will and determination. It is the divine fire that burns in every soul.
In the conscious or subconscious pattern, I have self-control. I can control my behavior. I have my own perspective of seeing things. I follow my instincts. As per what my name means, I am passionate about what I do. Even if I break sometimes, there is always a burning fire inside me which gives me the power to rise up again and again. 

 "In order to rise from its own ashes.
 A phoenix first must burn"
- Octavia E.Butler

There is no other behavior in me that doesn't match my name. My names mean a lot to me and it defines my personality. I am blessed with a noble name I love my name, even it is hard to pronounce. My name is my identity.  
Banhishikha is who I am.
I am the fire.

List of brands & products I have used which I will need at every stage: 1. Basic needs -     Physiological needs: This is the most basic needs for survival which includes air, water, food and sleep. For example,  I have been using products from Amul (Anand Milk Union Limited), Mother Dairy Fruit & Vegetable Pvt Ltd and The Kellogg Company. I have been eating butter and cheese from Amul because they are utterly delicious and healthy. Amul is the taste of India. Butter or cheese has two layer packaging which seems very hygienic and fresh. Muesli

Impact involves getting results, influence is about spreading the passion you have for your work, and you have to inspire team-mates and customers." - Robin S. Sharma What do we mean by leadership? A leader plays the most vital role and responsibility of the whole team. The leader should be fair and impartial while dealing with all the team members. Those who do not play a common goal, leader keep them out of the team or make some other use of them.  The leader should not hesitate to take the hardest decision.
