Decisions...and...updates from Aug-2010

Today on the very first day of Diwali...I have made up my mind...

I had to pick one of the two...first was well being of my family...and second was well being of the self...and I have selected the well being of my family...I have taken certain decisions...
(Aug-2010: Yes, I am following these)

First...In near future I will plan to shift to Sahakarnagar which will make my family complete...
(Aug-2010: Well! I tried this during Nov-Dec - 2007 but it did not help so scrapped this from the list)

Second...I am not going out of town on a permenant basis...like i had thought of running away to bangalore...for the sake of career growth...before the growth in career...I have to concentrate on well being of my family...
(Aug-2010: Yes, I am following this. But now things have changed. I mean my younger brother is no more in college. I can rely on him when I am away.)

Third...I shall plan to reconcentrate on stocks...that I had given up to liquidate the cash and concentrate on something else...if I can convert 1.8 to 3.2 in 14 months...I can do that again...
(Aug-2010: Yes, started long back)

Forth...Building a home comes back on the priority list...
(Aug-2010: this is still on the list)
Fifth...orkut only when really free...have to utilise the time more efficiently...so that maximum can remain for my people...
(Aug-2010: Yes, I have not seen orkut since...I dont kno - how many months but it has been long time.)
Sixth...4 wheeler can wait...2 wheeler is a priority...that will definately save the travel cost...
(Aug-2010: Yes)

Seventh...Put family first...then the career...and then the self...
(Aug-2010: Yes)
Eighth...maintain fitness...you can do good when you are fit both physically and mentally...change in environment is enough for mental fitness...next is physical fitness...
(Aug-2010: Yes, tried some fitness routines during last years. But the best is when I visit Germany, I loose some weight naturally)

Nineth...Keep the long term goal in the vision...and move towards it...this time...calculate risks and the move...
(Aug-2010: Yes, Need-Junction - www.need-junction.blogspot.com/ - is on track. Now, we are partners to almost 30 brands. We help them to find business and help our visitor to fnd the best product. So, its win-win)

Tenth...no haphazard expenditure...life is going to be big...and keep the best for the rest...and for the satisfaction of the complete family...
(Aug-2010: Yes)
Eleventh...develop the skill to convert worries into fun...be like that shekhar...who was living his life 1 year back...leave worries on to the almighty...if certain things have to happen...they will happen...just...keep the faith...
(Aug-2010: Yes, celebrating every minor sucess and trying to forget the biggest mishaps :) )
So this becomes my check list, which will always remain on this page and recall what I have to do...I shall satisfy all needs of my family and will try to make it complete in all respects...

Win-Win

Winning might not be everything…but failures…definitely have something to recommend it…But who says…that someone can fail…basically its always a win – win situation…in fact…your desire to win grows once you fail…you start concentrating on improving yourself and the only thing that happens is your improvement…This is the way that makes you a true winner…Take an example…Aussies are the favs in cricket…but 20-20 is won by India…Aussies accepted the defeat…and this failure did not bring them down…they have recently registered a huge victory over India by 9 wickets…Now that’s about cricket…In real life, there will be instances when you will come across situations, where you have to accept set-backs…under such circumstances, one should accept it for the time-being…work on your mistakes…improve yourself…and get back with new improved cards…so this is winning all about…learning from failures…improving yourself…and serve the purpose…after all…even after failing…you have that “junoon” to win…

After all…failures capacity is exactly why venture capitalists often look for managers to run startups whose resumes include experience with a flop…One such example is Virgin management…which has managers…who had once failed and were overlooked by other companies because of failures in career…but these are much better than repetitive winners…

All it requires is to reframe the thinking style…most of the people seek positive outcomes and set about to prove that an experiment works…but designers, inventors and scientists (I call them the logic lovers), struggling to be more creative, take the opposite track…they focus on potential flaws that brought the failure…here what is missing is…the understanding that…failures provide more learning than winning…even they realize this with time…and emerge out to be winners…the only important factor over here is to provide them that sufficient time…


Now come to the other side of the coin…winners...no comments...they are only recommended...if they really deserved that...and didnot win due to miskakes of others...

Thus…its always a WIN-WIN situation…after all, failure is never permanent…it is just a state……if one can understand this…he can definitely prepare to win…

Really satisfied…

Yesterday, on 11th Sep, I saw him…it was not that I was watching him for the first time…but this time…he was looking different…for the first time…I was watching him…in a blazer…soot boot n all…

Basically…krunal…my brother…received his pair of uniform yesterday…from his college…navy blue trouser…with…a white shirt…a navy blue bow…and a blazer over it…hotel management college cha formal uniform…and let me tell you all…one thing…the get-up really suits him…he reminded me of those IAF officers…whom I had seen during my mysore days…he has also received…the chef’s dress…with a round long cap…for the whole night…we were teasing him for that…and he kept on blushing…

There were days…when I was about to own my dream vehicle…and I had to give up the thought…for his college fees…I had to make up my mind saying…let it be…waise bhi second hand safari hai…but again…what I experienced yesterday…and will experience for next three years…daily…satisfied me…truly saying…even driving the jumbo would not have given me that sort of pleasure…

The next thing that…am gonna do…is to rush him to Jimmy’s studio…watch out my orkut profile for his signature…I bet…you all will also feel…what am experiencing…

So you all…keep on monitoring my orkut profile…till then…CYA…

Astro Speaks…

What should I do if I am born to be like this…accept it or not…but I am like this…now that’s not what I say…astro speaks…any other observations are welcome…put them in comment…

You were born under the Sun in Aquarius considered the most extravagant of all Zodiac signs. Your character is ruled by two opposing planets: Saturn, the symbol of order, rationality and concentration, and Uranus, unpredictable like February winds.
Consequently, you are a person of extremes, at one moment appearing sober and career-minded, at the other turning into a regular guy who likes to dream of a better world in a circle of like-minded companions. You have a versatile nature, allergic to routine and conventions, and unmatched in absorbing everything new and unusual.

Even if fortune doesn't provide opportunity for a peaceful fulfillment, it won't stop you. Your concealed energy will find the way out, but in this case it may take a wicked shape and turn your eccentricity into riot, your hunger for novelty into reckless adventurism. With your very personal interpretation of things, you are somewhat difficult to follow, which only increases your disposition to eccentricity, being in fact your peculiar means of psychological defense against penetration of your inner world. You are a pleasant companion provided your associates don't try to alter you in accordance with their liking.

Never snobbish, you still love it when others duly recognize and appreciate your numerous talents and share your high opinion of yourself. Nevertheless, you do not tolerate flattery, considering it a cheap imitation that interferes with your right of being unique. You like to take on complex tasks, where others failed. Only such a challenge is worth your time and effort. You have a keen interest in the latest achievements of science and technology and eagerly share your knowledge with others. You are mobile and restless, especially when swayed by a new idea, and absolutely unpredictable, which, depending on circumstances, could be a blessing or a nightmare for the people around you: the first, because you are never boring, the latter, because most fellow humans feel much less comfortable than you when their life takes totally unexpected turns. You are as a person full of responsibility in meeting obligations undertaken.

You are perfectly fit for a consultant or intermediary job, have a talent for giving appropriate advice, carrying on negotiations and finding a relieving compromise in any situation. Your ability to find understanding with total strangers helped you more than once both in professional and everyday life. You feel at ease both in face-to-face contacts and in front of a large audience. You prefer to have your own world view without taking advice from anyone. You like to talk, share your thoughts and have interested listeners around but you don't like to listen by yourself. You are strongly attracted by anything new, may it be work, ideas or people.

You constantly need new food for your mind. Usually you are inquisitive and garrulous. You have great communication skills and often deal with information at work. You have strong organization skills. You are pragmatic, circumspect, disciplined and know how to accumulate and place funds. You always save up for a rainy day. In private life you stay modest and follow strict moral values. In situations that are require you to demonstrate your personal qualities; you can surprise others with unusual and spontaneous behavior.

Partners play a major part in your life. It's their respect and high esteem that makes you feel validated.

It's very important for you to see yourself fulfilled in public life. You often find unusual ways of earning money. Up-to-date science and technology, inventors and laborsaving activities, as well as professions related to exploration of air and outer space can be the source of your well-being.

You are prepared to take risks for getting more money but usually try to calculate risks and their consequences. To build your system of live values, you need a partner. Your earnings may be connected to legal activities or your ability to conduct negotiations. You spend money on your marriage partners. You apparently prefer a somewhat eccentric style of communication with the people surrounding you in everyday life. Besides, you may have a talent for obtaining information using unconventional methods. You take authentic interest in other people's affairs and get a lot of valuable information from interaction with them.

You are relaxed and unconstrained in public. Probably, your relocations have to do with your marriage partner. You see your family as a community united by common ideas and common interests. You believe that a family should be organized on the basis of absolute mutual trust and friendship. It is important for you to know that you are building your house and making it a home, rather, for your spouse than yourself. You would prefer to spend your spare time following spontaneous ideas.

You are quite resourceful in everything related to leisure and hobbies. You are always ready to hit the road if you have a promise that you are going to come across something new and unusual. Eccentric creativity can be the basis of your partnership therefore you treat family life as gambling. Marriage for love is the only kind of marriage, you think, is acceptable. The subject of your activity can be connected with the search for internal links that unite different processes and actors of public relations. Your interest in global processes can result in your participation in various public organizations and social projects.

You know how to manage long-term planning and project development. As a rule, people of your psychological type choose occupations related to the implementation of the latest scientific ideas. You prefer a free informal working atmosphere to a rigid and strict one. Work acquires special meaning for you when you do it together with partners. Your spouse may have influenced your career choice.

It is quite probable that your job has to do with settling legal issues, composing agreements and contracts or court defense. You apparently like your relations with partners to be built on mutual freedom and openness. You are ready to give freedom to your partner expecting the same in exchange. In relationships with the opposite sex you like unusual extravagant actions. Partnerships are important for you both at work and in private life. Unfolding your potential in this area is one of your most important goals.

Thousand lives...for a dagger...

Once a warrior met a dagger…all that the warrior saw in the dagger…was her strength, beauty and the spirit that she imparted to the one whom she blessed…In all the campaigns, the warrior and the dagger were together…warrior was blessed by the thousand lives…and the dagger was the best in her skills…

The story went sweet...it was like the dagger defended the warrior...and shined with the glorious colors...Warrior also defended the dagger from the nasty blows of the enemies...Every thunder that hit the dagger...was felt by the warrior...he tried to improve the situation and looked out for new solutions...New ideas to take over the campaign flowed from them...No wonder how difficult the campaigns were...all fell to their feet...

Everything was good but not for the long time…warrior had never tried to exercise his ownership over the dagger…he had thought…that…he was only a warrior…his weapon will only see the campaigns…but he dreamt to keep it in the court…a day came…he had to take over another campaign…he had to leave the dagger alone…and during this period…the days went sour…

Dagger…she imparted strength to him…now she was someone else’s…she had to forget the campaigns that she had taken over along with the warrior…when he came back from the campaign…he went to see the dagger…but the dagger had changed her shine…unable to consume this…he fell off his feet…all that he thought…was…the same dagger will again work for him…but this did not happen…

All that the dagger did…was to show the sharpness of her edges…there was the first stroke…the warrior of campaigns…who had seen many battles…had consumed many wound…was wounded again…the nasty blow came from someone’s hand…but it was his dagger that injured him…he can see nothing but the dagger…this had taken his life…

He came back with the second life…again to die…at the hands of the dagger…came again for the third time…died again…and the fourth time…fifth…sixth…seventh…and this continued…

All that came to the warrior’s mind were…the days when the warrior and the dagger were together…no-one owned anyone…but they had happily taken over a lot many of campaigns...with a smile…he kept on hoping…it is this dagger which will again impart him the strength…he had forgotten that he had already lost his thousand lives…now left with nothing...and even then…he was there…in front of the dagger…once again to die…

Warrior had taken his decision…with a single hope with him...he had no fear of the death…now it was all up to the dagger’s mind…

Even & Odd...and...Real...

Hearing of Even and Odd…the first thing that strikes our mind is numbers…All numbers divisible by two are even…and remaining are odd…the very next thing that comes to our mind is…All that is even cannot be odd…and vice versa…or…all that is odd cannot be even…such a narrow approach…lets come out of numbers…start thinking on broader terms….

Lets not take a giant leap…and move on to functions and their graphical representations…y = f(x) sort of…very near to numbers…Now what is an even entity?…Answer is - Everything that is symmetric about Y-axis...And what is an odd entity?…And the answer is - Everything that passes through the origin…So after broadening our approach…Can we say…”all that is even cannot be odd…and vice-versa…”…Come on…give it a thought…Think of a graphical representation that is symmetric across Y-axis…(hint : perpendicular to Y-axis)…and also passes through the origin…Yes…you have got it…its…X-axis…X-axis is symmetrical across Y-axis…Also it passes through the origin…

So finally we have got an entity which is both even and odd…and that too…the X-axis…have you ever thought of…what is the X-axis?…the mathematical definition says…IT IS THE SET OF ALL REAL NUMBERS…again a narrow approach…think on broader terms…it is a collection of everything that is real…So everything that is real have both qualities…evenness and oddness…And the greatest reality on this earth…is…LIFE…

Think of it…if we know something or someone…in real life…that we think is odd or even…that means we don’t know that someone in totality…this is life…it is real…it is like X-axis…it is both…even and odd…if you think that someone is odd…then your approach is very narrow…think on broader term…come out of numbers to functions…come to real life...in-fact you are on the safer side…you are yet to experience the sweet even…Think of it…

Mayb you will start finding some evens amongst many odds...finally its a real life...

Till then...CYA…

Man and Machine...

In the world of men...they tend to become machines...
The easiest and the best way of living is to be what you are...and the toughest thing to do...is to live the life as others want you to live...
Others often try to make you like someone unknown...and since you are doing the toughest thing in your life...you donot enjoy these moments...then why do you behave the way...others want you to...
Dont do this...be yourself...thats the most enjoyable way...
I will like to convey this to everyone verbally...but at times circumstances make me to write it in words...
BE THYSELF...and nothing else...

Speed...but why...

People say I keep on running arround always...but why...is it that I want to show off..."look I can do things faster" sort off...few ppl think in that way too...unfortunately they are on the wrong track...

So whats the philosophy...Consider a case...that u have given some job to do...let it be any job at home or at workplace...let it be walking, eating, writing, typing, anything...now if you also want to do something that you enjoy much more than this...they you will always think of completing the first one earlier...or is it that you want to keep on doing something that doesnot enchant you...and keep on doing the first activity...no...never...

Same is true with me...my speed of doing something increases...provided it satisfies two conditions...first...I know how to do it...second...I dont like doing it...take an example...one can easily notice that I walk speedily...but only when I am alone...why...because...first...I know how to walk...nothing new in it...and second...I dont like walking alone...When in company...I like to match the speed of my mate...again...if I am in company of someone and also in hurry...that means I want to get involved with that someone in some other activity...something other than what we are doing now...

Moreover...am a slow learner...nothing bad in knowing the shortcoming...why...because I enjoy the process of learning...let it be anything...learning a new recipe...learning a new concept...learning some new way of living...I will enjoy every bit of this learning process...and will take my own time...may be I will take months...

So whenever you see me doing something fast and quick...believe me...at that instant am doing something that has satisfied the two conditions...first...whatever am doing is not new to me...second...am not enjoying doing that...

And whenever you see me at slower pace...then dont be under the impression that am emotionally down...(at times am emotionally down but at those times the scenario is different)...first...am either discovering the method of doing that activity...or am really enjoying the activity am involved into...

So thats the way I am...this helps me to complete the activities which I dont like in minimum possible time...and enjoy the rest of the time doing what is really enjoyable...enjoy with family, friends, activities which are really interesting (may be at work or some other place)...finally one cant always get to do those things which he enjoys all the time...one has to balance likes and dislikes...

Cheer Up...Please...

kahich suchat nahiye...doka aagdi pack zalaye...fakt ekach gosht lakshyat yeteye...jagaycha aahe...ani kitihi radu aala...tari hasaycha aahe...

Thats the spirit...and thats the real me...will always keep on looking for that company...but in all the phases will keep on smiling...And this is what you should do in your bad times...

Here is something for you all...

I may not be able always to spare time for you...my friends and relatives...but I will always be there with you...in your good and bad times...within you...

I may not be able to wipe off your tears...but I will always pray for your happiness...

I may not be able to walk with you...but my mind will always revolve around you...

I may not be able to ask you for something...but my soul will always ask for your smile...

I may not be able to attend your presense...but will always try to be present whenever you will ask for...

I may not be able to overcome the barrier...but always welcome you whenever you overcome...

Thats life...and it will continue...with dreamzzzz...

I dont know how to start...I am not feeling well today...and thats why am
at home...enjoying some free time with my people at home...and thats
the time when I also think of my people who are not in front of me at
home...I have always thought of big things...big dreams...achieving the
targets that people consider impossible...Even impossible says I M
Possible...thats what I think...but in the process...many times I fail
to think about the small moments...In these small moments lives the
whole world...which makes everyone happy...even I want to enjoy these
small moments...extract happiness from them...but thats beyond my
ability...(its better to know the shortcoming)...so I always try to
pair up with those who are the masters of these small but precious
moments...who know how to live these small moments...

At the same time...I know I dream big...Getting into the group where I
am working now...was one of those big dreams...its a reality now...when
I had dreamt abt getting in there...I didnt even knew what does it
do...I just knew that it is some place with a massive gate...which I
cannot cross at that moment...and it has a good playground in front of
the school...where we used to go to play cricket...I was just 12...but
I always wanted to get in from that gate...As I grew up...I discovered
more about the place...the group...the ways of getting in
there...followed those paths...worked on them...and now I am into it...

One such big dream...is getting retired at 45 as an employee...and then
become the employer of the self...and the biggest ever dream is to
enjoy every moment of the life...may be the former wont turn into
reality...but the latter means a lot...Dont live for the money...dont
live for the work...but live for the people around you...and am not the
only one of the kind...responses to the blog..."I want good work...neee
I wanna money"...is a measure of the fact that there are many more to
think like me...Fun should be the first criterion...and when its not
fun then move on...bcoz fun comes when u take over all ur worries...it
wont come from running away from your worries...these worries are
direct consequences of expectations...so expectations are the biggest
hurdle in having fun...and so in achieving dreams...

So dont expect but dream...seems contradictory...no...not at all...when
you expect...you want others to do something...when you dream...you
want yourself to do something...I-factors and THEY-factors...so you
play your part...and if you want to have fun then dont expect anything
from others...let them follow thier own heart...so if you dream to keep
your people happy...then do good for them...but dont expect any good in
return...only then you will have fun...achieve your dreams...am jotting
this down...bcoz i have experienced this...

I had expected a lot from those whom I called mine...Even getting
called mine...was an expectation...that did nothing but brought worries
both for me and them...Vinash kalin viprit buddhi...was what happenned
next...no fun only worries...so when there is no fun then move on...but
if you move on then what about the dream...those can be turned into
reality only when there is fun...and please dont expect anything in
return for what you do...that will only kill...Those who care for
you...will do good to you even if you dont expect...and those who dont
care for you...will never do what you expect...Let them decide if they
care...If I care for them then I ll keep on doing good for them...even
on moving they will be mine...but this time I wont expect anything in
return...But I will keep on chasing my dream...My dream of making them
happy will come true...and in return this fact will make me
happy...Enough of theory for now...now its the time for the
practicals...thats it!!

This was the 13th blog in the series...still 87 left for the
century...Keep celebrating the BOND year 007'...

And last but not the least...it was 7/7/7 yesterday...and there was a
grand function at Lisbon...and the 7th announcement at the function for
declaring new 7 wonders of this world...on the 7th day of the 7th month
of the the 7th year...also the 7th day of the week (Saturday)...was our
own TAJ MAHAL...one more dream came true...TAJ tops...

Friends And Foes

Hey all,

Was thinking of friends and foes…was embedded in deep thought and was unable to conclude anything…and for one more time my guru came to my rescue…he asked me to read Shanti Parva

In Shanti Parva…there is a moment when the king fears of falling in distress…he asks the following to his fellows…and keep on expecting for a solution…This is what he asked…

“When a king falls into distress, a large number of foes, provoked by his past acts, range themselves against him and seek to vanquish him. How may a king, weak and alone, succeed in holding up his head when he is challenged on all sides by many powerful kings leagued together? How does a king at such times make friends and foes? How should he behave at such a time towards both friends and foes? When those that have indications of friends really become his foes, what should the king then do if he is to obtain happiness? With whom should he make war and with whom should he make peace? Even if he were strong, how should he behave in the midst of foes? O scorcher of foes, this I regard to be the highest of all questions connected with the discharge of kingly duties.”

On listening this, few men were looking at others for the answer but none was to reply…Under these circumstances, one of the fellows firmly stood up and started his comment….
He started with the famous story of Palita, Lomasa, Harita and Chandraka…(story not included in this blog)...to conclude the following…

A foe becomes a friend and a friend also becomes a foe. The course of human actions, through the combination of circumstances, becomes very uncertain. As regards, therefore, what should be done and what should not, it is necessary that paying heed to the requirements of time and place, one should either trust one’s foes or make war. One should, even exerting one’s self to one’s best, make friends with men of intelligence and knowledge that desire one’s welfare. One should make peace with even one’s foes, when one’s life cannot otherwise be saved. That foolish man, who never makes peace with foes, never succeeds in winning any gain or acquiring any of those fruits for which others endeavour. He again who makes peace with foes and quarrels with even friends after a full consideration of circumstances, succeeds in obtaining great fruits.

There is no condition that deserves permanently the name either of friendship or hostility. Both friends and foes arise from considerations of interest and gain. Friendship becomes changed into enmity in the course of time. A foe also becomes a friend. Self-interest is very powerful. He who reposes blind trust on friends and always behaves with mistrust towards foes without paying any regard to considerations of policy, finds his life to be unsafe. He who, disregarding all considerations of policy, sets his heart upon an affectionate union with either friends or foes, comes to be regarded as a person whose understanding has been unhinged. One should not repose trust upon a person undeserving of trust, nor should one trust too much a person deserving of trust. The danger that arises from blind reposing of confidence is such that it cuts the very roots (of the person that reposes such confidence). The father, the mother, the son, the maternal uncle, the sister’s son, other relatives and kinsmen, are all guided by considerations of interest and profit. Father and mother may be seen to discard the dear son if fallen.

One becomes dear from an adequate cause. One becomes a foe from an adequate cause. This whole world of creatures is moved by the desire of gain (in some form or other). One never becomes dear to another (without cause). The friendship between two uterine brothers, the love between husband and wife, depends upon interest. If, as is sometimes seen, uterine brothers or husband and wife having quarreled reunite together from a natural affection, such a thing is not to be seen in persons unconnected with one another

And believe me, this was that what really soothed me…gave answer to my querries…now am on the quest to know who are those to be really trusted and who is that who will see his / her self-interest in my interest…again may be a friend…or even a foe…depends on the circumstances…is it?

So that’s all for now…this is 12th blog…still 88 remaing for the century…

Till then…CYA…

Learn what and from whom…secret of life…

Even am learning…and these are few things that am trying to learn from my guru…cant let you know his / her name…have taken an oath to that cause…these are his / her words…am just a medium…

What one should try to learn is…one thing from a lion; one from a crane; three from a donkey; four from a cock; four from a dog; five from a crow…

If one can practice these virtues then one shall become invincible in all his undertakings...and that’s the secret of becoming unconquerable…am trying to practice…you may also think of…ur wish…

From a lion…one…Whatever a man intends doing should be done by him with a whole-hearted and strenuous effort…let it be love, trust, work or enmity…unless you don’t give your hundred percent to it…your role remains unjustified…

From a crane…one…Restrain senses and accomplish the purpose with due knowledge of place, time and ability…wait for the right time for the right activity…till then concentrate on making yourself able for that moment…

Should the transformation begin??????

First of let me thank to all of you for responding to my first blog during the year 007'…For the first time since I have started there were around 10 comments….THANKS….

Now moving on to this moments topic…

I know a person….He is in his early twenties….People say his is a vague behavior…….this person don’t know how to live life…even the proper way of walking remains a mystery for him…Whenever he walks…he does it at around 75-85 footsteps every minute…moreover he keeps on counting them…so as to better the count the next day…………

This person admits that he likes to be in company of others………but he himself keep on moving away from people near him………maybe afraid of his footstep counts…those wont count up to 85 when he is company of others…ooh really gr8…common some1 make this person behave properly……..

Always likes to compete…likes to challenge the master of the game….and so far most of the times he has welcomed injuries…few of which he can never forget…and even now he remains crazy…some1 tell him not to sustain this behavior…else he would have to sacrifice a lot…….

Sacrifice…..NO…..that’s definitely not a proper word for what he will have to face…basically he will lose a lot….the moments which he enjoys……
Few facts those took place few days back…
in his rush he missed many things.…activities….fun….all of which he admires...he likes…

He missed…….
...the first stoke of the rising sun that turns the sky saffron
...the morning song of those beautiful birds that enchants
...the refreshing sensation that comes from the morning dew.
...the GM wishes which his ears await
...the company at the lunch that the unconscious mind expect
...the cup of hot coffee that fills in the spirit
...the cute smile which his eyes look for
...those complains which knocked his ears but he overheard

And then what had he achieved from this???………….he achieved that speed of 85 footsteps per minute and that was all………

So now he is on the quest of……

”What sort of life does he want?”…
”Should the transformation begin?”…
”Is it too early for the beginning?”…
”And if not now then when?”…
”Will that be too late?”…

So let him think…and u all over here enjoy reading and do provide comments….few more blogs would follow…till then CYA…….

Hello.....I want good work.......Neee.......I wanna money.........

Two ppl are on some kind of discussion.....and are very deeply embedded in that.....

One says.....Are yaar, I want some good and healthy work to do, if i dont get that I'll plan to get that by hook or by crook.....but at the end I want some good work to do that I like and that the world will recognise me from......

Other says.....Neee man, its just opposite here.......what I wanna is money.....ll do anything....hops never mind but money is all that I want....

So now thats clear that these ppl are deeply discussing their career goals.....One is behind "GOOD WORK"....something that he can add to his resume in bold letters.........and other is behind MONEY.......all that this person wants is healthy bank balance........

Good to see that both have pre-defined GOALS for their career.......and both are ready to achieve those "BY HOOK OR BY CROOK"..........can simply do anything..........great.......now this is what brings success to them..........they both are the masters of extreme level of determination.........

But,unfortunately this is not the case of all the individuals........few LOOSE this BASIC DETERMINATION........these fools say........they work but neither for money nor for good work........but these work for maintaining good relationships with the people near them........U ll always find these fools sticking to one place even if they themselves agree that they could have a better career (Work N Money) at some other place........And the height of their foolishness is that they believe that if they treat ppl well then ppl will treat them well too.......Are yaar, all career aspirants know how to step over someone (in fact anyone) and move ahead to acheive their pre-defined goals.......Good work, Money N all that.....The level of foolishness that they have attained by maintaining good relationships with ppl (not stepping over someone - in fact - no-one) cannot be attained by everyone........an thats y everyone but these fools will progress...........

So, will these fools achieve anything.............???????.........I DOUBT..........
Nyways........the above was the first blog during the new year 007 (The year of BONDS) and will follow with few others.........Till then........CYA.........
