Reflection - An essence

Have you ever experienced a feeling of missing something but not sure of what it is? Well, until today, I don't think, this thought has ever crossed my mind.  But suddenly, approaching my last few days of MBA life, I have this feeling in me today. Ah, before you guys imagine something wild, I shall brief my point.

I was writing my final MBA report today and suddenly felt that, though the report appeared fine and focussed on the topic, but there was something missing in it. I read other reports, journals and books, but still couldn't figure out the solution to this puzzle.

Then, I realize! Many a times, we don't spend time on reviewing and analysing a work on its completion; may be reading, listening, cooking, writing, playing etc.. We merely follow our intuition or logic and structure to complete a work. Instead, we need to spend time on review and reflection. Throughout my MBA, there was a lot of importance given for reflection,  but I didn't realize then! Today, when I look back and analyse the missing part of the puzzle, I see, the role of reflection and criticism on original work.
Many of us would not like somebody else reviewing or critiquing our work. But sit back and think why! Answering this question of why, will solve many confusions.  We are afraid that somebody else will influence our work, criticize our work, dominate our work and what now!  However, what about the positive benefits of review? You will have diversified perspective and time to reflect and act on. These factors will facilitate you in your upcoming projects/work. By reflecting on one's own work, he/she will observe, act, question and correct his own work.

Therefore, give a thought for this idea of reflection as an essence in everyday's work and enjoy the benefit of change and reflection!

"Einstein's Lessons of Life"

I have always been wondering on Einstein's Lessons of  Life. One of his life lessons everytime keeps me haunting, which says "Time Flies When You Are Having Fun". Honestly, I didn't give this much a thought as I believed that time flies all the time, no matter what happens. But gradually started realising how true was Einstein!

Let us all take a moment and recollect your memories. What do you see? Which moments do you recollect? I bet, we will be able to refresh our memories with only Happy or Sad moments of your life. Here you go! Why do you think this happens? There may be many events in our lives, but our mind just records and treasures either our best or worst events, because those are the times when we either have fun or break down.

Sub-consciously, our mind records these events and saves it for our future memories. I go back when I was in India and working (2010). I had been passionate in pursuing my MBA for 3 years. Finally, I thought to myself, this was the time and decided to move on. Now, after completing my 2 semesters at Strathclyde, I just cannot believe that it has been 9 months since I started my course.  Now, I talk to myself analysing how did those 9 months flew? Here I find, Einstein's Life lesson of  'Time Flies When You Have Fun'. Eventhough, the entire 9 months was like a rock and space journey, I guess these are one of the best cherishable moments of my life!

As I always say, "Don't brood over your past and live the present", so does Einstein, Live your life the best way you can and cherish every moment of life! Hard and Easy times are part of life, but remember time flies when you have fun. So don't lose your time to spread happiness and joy everyday, because "Everyday is a new day"!

Pain of Isolation

Not everyone in life achieves and gets everything that they want. Life is all about maintaining a balance between happiness and isolation. Sometimes, when I am in solitude, I talk to myself and try to understand how difficult life is to live the way you want:( There is desparation and desire that craves to be satisfied all the time. Is this possible, I ask myself. The pain of isolation or loneliness is just unimaginable. How does it feel when you are away from your family? How does it feel when you see an abandoned baby on the road? What about the pain of losing someone you love? What about the fear of death? Are there any answers to these?

Well, to be honest, I dont think anyone in this world would have answers for these questions. But just think once to yourself on why these happens. It is sometimes the pain that doesn't have an answer. It is so deep that it would pour tears out and even melt the ocean. It is like being pierced with iron rods one by one all over the body. Just the pain remains. There is no rescue and fear prevails. The emotion just pricks your heart with thorns. The pain sometimes kills your emotion, sense of belonging, purpose of life and ultimately forces you to end your life.

Only cure, is to spread love and affection as long as we live. What would you lose by sharing love? What would you lose by giving happiness? I say, you will get back twice the amount of love and happiness that you share.
Start living your days as though today is the last day of your life. Now, see what difference you would make both to yourself and to people around you. World is small and life is short, so just follow your destinty and live your life the best way you can! Isolation becomes invisible.

Power of Blogging:)

Now I realise why people start blogging more when they do their MBA:):)

The pressure their studies does to them is just unimaginable. Atleast to me, I feel it is a great deal of studies after my 3.5 years of work. I feel, I am getting back to my school days may be my XII grade where I had to really slog for my marks. Though some may argue that the course is not that competitive, I personally feel that it needs a lot of energy and hard work. I feel my appetite is literally triple than what it was before. Why am I hungry and hog like a pig? Staring at my PC, I was just thinking why this stress and what can I do to avoid this? Then I realised why one of my friend was writing more blogs. I realised what my blog could do to me. I understood why people start writing blogs during their MBA. The Ugly truth is that "Blog" not only relaxes me but also motivates me and energizes me back. It gives me the whole energy and a more holistic view of thinking. It improves my thought process and concentration. "Blogging" is just an amazing tool.


I kept thinking and starting at the Marketing book for hours together. After ceratin point of time, I felt I wasn't any productive at all. Now, I looked at my blog that wasn't updated for aroung 2 months. I kept thinking why? Why did I do injustice to my blog? Then, I thought to myself that I would definitely keep writing atleast once a week and keep me rejuvenated and fresh! This is the power of "Blogging". So, bloggers, keep blogging and cherish your present moments! Now, heading back to target Marketing:)

Nature -- Truly God's gift!


Hey All... I am back yet again with another episode.. Well this time it would be nature at its best!! What else do you need when you feel lonely or aloof?? Anybody else on a second thought?? Well for me it's a definite NO NO.. The one which gives you the best feeling or soothes you and comforts you is "Nature". This is truly GOD'S GIFT!!

I have had thoughts on writing about Nature sometime back. But didn't find the perfect blend to write about it until I enjoyed Norway!! It was amazing, splendid, marvellous and what not adjective do I use?? Not just to say but you need to feel the same. I felt it!! Nature for its Huge Mountains, Trees, Rivers and Waterfalls is just a blessing to watch! Trust me, Norway is just outstanding for this! Though I missed the "Midnight Sun" view at Norway, there was nothing to regret when i saw the Fjords (Feeyords -- mountains cut through glaciers) just awe to look.. They were huge and gigantic reminding me of the King Kong movie!!! Sometimes I even imagined the Gorillas of King Kong frightening me amidst the Fjords there!!!

I had spent 3 days in Norway and all the three days were different! Those days just made me feel that Nature and I are friends and companions! It mad me so comfortable to relax and ooze out my tensions only to enjoy and replenish myself along with the cool winds and breeze!!! The sunny days and windy nights change anybody's mood to just feel pleasant and go with the wind!! Everyone must experience this feeling atleast once in their lifetime! I would still say this is not done for me... still more and more pending in the stock!! Got to wait for more exploration!!


So, be there and enjoy the Nature around you to the fullest without any stoppages!!! No bother what happens and who is with you, but this man's best friend Nature is always there for you!

Sunk In Despair :( :(

Hey guys!!

I now realise that there are not always good moments.. Life does have ups and downs --good and bad.. Live angel and Devils.. Thats the one I am facing today at this minute.. Thought or probably had a small instinct that in my life things are going to be perfect with all great things and all success but dont understand how this feeling of depression sank in..

Well thts because of this crazy and unbearable society and its rules.. Its so nasty at times getting on nerves with all silly comparisons and sophiscated caste system I guess the root cause of this issue is caste system and ancestors rules...Can't say it is wrong but it isn't right also.. .. Because nobody gives importance to feelings and passion.. They say when something is minus and when there is a probability then there the equation equals to zero :(:( What sort of equation comparison is going on here? Its life man!! Dude everybody has to come out of this thought and start a new life!!

I hope things change soon and people start realising there is something more than just this casts and society with its rules ruling over people and their moral problems!! Shall definitely try to work something from my end!! Pls u guys too contribute as much as u can!!! Whatever means it may be but we must fight against this odd society and try to achieve our goals!! I know i am sounding a little philosophical and a little doomed today and will fight against this odd and raise again!!
