Welcome to my official blog!

Everyday is an opportunity to follow your dreams, your passion and your goal in life. I started my dreams very early and never gave up on my passion for science and engineering.

My humble beginnings made way for my perseverance and dedication to the field of research and development in aeronautics and engineering.

More than 40 years in this field and I'm not ready to give up yet. Because giving up on my passion would mean giving up on everything I've striven for. Truly, knowledge is power.

I started this blog to share my experiences. my learning and my life story with the world.

"Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try."

The Early life of Dr. V. K .Saraswat - Fighting stage fear

My position demands quite a lot of public speaking and addressing events and conventions, and other such public events. Almost often, I get invited to speak at the dais, facing the audience and the cameras to give my opinion or something, to speak of a decision made or to announce plans made by the body I’m currently associated with. I must say, that I’ve come to see it as a privilege today more than I did years ago, where I would tremble at the very thought of having to speak in front of an audience. It’s but natural, I think, for when we’re children to be afraid of public speaking. Some call it stage fear, some say “you’re a shy child” when we refuse to perform in front of relatives who come home while sometimes, you’re just a taciturn of sorts. Stage fright may be a small issue while growing up, but later often manifests itself in many ways - you may not be an active participant in college activities, you may not be very confident in job interviews and you may not be ...

Ideas beyond the horizon

“Daring ideas are like chessmen, they may be beaten, but they may start a winning game” Have you ever thought of trying something new, something different? Did you ever watch something happen and think you could make it happen better? Has your mind stumbled upon something that was too good to let pass, without a second thought? Ideas happen; they happen to all of us. Some of us choose to act upon those ideas, some of us ponder, some of us let them go. In this interwoven chain, there’s reason enough for us to believe that ideas are the first step of enterprises. The largest, most successful enterprises in the world are all built up on one premise - the effective incorporation of an idea. I decided to write this post for all the budding entrepreneurs of our country. We as a nation are filled with hope, growth potential and an unwavering belief in our abilities. What makes a man successful? We’re not going to count sheer luck as one of the factors here. M...

Fighting stage fear - Practice and preparation are the Key

In the first part of this series I spoke about the importance of tackling stage fear. As children, some amount of anxiety to perform in front of an audience (even as an adult ) is absolutely normal. Everyone gets a little nervous when you’re up to face a group of ideas in front of a group of people, there are a whole lot of fears that include presenting your ideas and opinion in a concise way, putting yourself out there to be criticized and trying to sell your opinion to people. While some amount of stage fear is natural, people showing excessive taciturn behaviour may develop other drawbacks and handicaps later in life. I had mentioned a little incident from my childhood in the previous post on stage fear. It was my first ever participation in a debate. It was a competition hosted by my school in Gwalior and I was to speak on Science and Religion. I was this shy kid, who had been home-schooled for the most part and here I was in front of an audience, waiting for my t...
