Hats Off to my Life savers

As the unpredictable evening unfolded on 30 th December 08 after a more advisory type of a training program to my juniors..i headed towards Imayam Dhaba along with Pradeep,Sasi,Sathya and Machan for a birthday treat ..other ten of them joined us later...treat was fantabulous that would nt have been if i had know bad seasons are nearby...after having our supper myself,Easvar,Pradeep was walking back to our room to pack my bags to Neyveli for my project discussions..But i came across a bad season when i was hit by a two wheeler without a head light..Next moment i turned back to see whether Easvar and Pradeep are flying along with me..but they were safe enough to catch me up from flying..People took me to hospital where i had my first aid.. my legs were trembling thinking of the incident..to deviate my thoughts just called up to my loved ones like tweety,kutti pisasu..and was talking...and got back to normal..then called up my brother ..he came along with ram anna and suresh to pick me up..and waiting to carry out further check ups..Incident helped me to understand how much even a unknown person values other person..right from man on the road who gave me water next moment ..who drove me towards the hospital..Easvar..Pradeep..each and every soul mates ,my family members who were around me did their best to keep me comfortable..Hats Off to Easvar and Pradeep my life savers..Thanks a billion for all!!!

Flying with Good times...

Last two days i had my sister around me my most loved girl in this world as of now...Really i m searching for a reason why i m saying i love her so much...Even I have been lying to my closed ones to just spend time with her around in home...Every now and then i would find opportunity to spend time with her and end up with a fight or maintaining silence...But we don t really mind doing the same again and again..I really like fighting with her especially slapping her...It would have been nice if she were my own sister or she would have born in my home i could had many chances of slapping her,taking her out in cold and gift her with cough,lying in her lap or shoulder for watching a film,getting her best of the three worlds in whatever she wants..Any way last two days we were just browsing and watching film at night just for the sake of talking but the time i spent with her was fabulous...it was something like when she is around its full of positive vibes....that s what i meant flying with good times...I always like to give her the best out of me so that she too feels like a angel when she is with me..But mostly i fail to give her what she wants...I have to master myself to assure her the best and keep flying with good times...I add this to my New Years To Do List..

Another feather on my cap....

This is all about a 9 day training program to my juniors for placement preparations....On completion of this program i feet proud and feel like i should appreciate myself for doing such a wonderful job..Apart from organizing and teaching them i too learnt a lot out of it..I have got my strengths and drawbacks to lime light so that i can improve myself on handling real time tough situations..What has to be improved ? Ya i have to be more people friendly,need to be more proactive...It was all about great management experience....Thanks to my team members who have been committed towards giving out such a fabulous program....Hats off!!!..

Summing up 2008 - After June....

Its around 3 in the morning when i thought of posting this blog....I have been posting nothing right from June and to reason why.... its because i am sluggish....

Well....In June Cognizant recruited me...It helped me to say "I m placed at Cognizant" but nothing more than that...its actually not my destiny...yet an added feather to my cap..ya Im Capable....

Over a period of time i have been losing my momentum towards the destiny..lack in confidence...but at no cost i have left my burning desire to reach my destiny an "MBA".
Yes..being the placement co ordinator of my department helps me to deal with tough times....
It also made me to realize that there are lot of things to learn through experience...my strengths and weakness are being analyzed by my own self ....yet to complete my search and react to it ...to be proactive towards the future.....

The three challenges i face as of now are Dealing with people and emotions, My health, Career Planning....

Ya I have to undergo a rejuvenation to get rid of my health problems one of the biggest challenge i am facing and i believe December is a month for it.....

Learning to deal with emotions ....Once its accomplished dealing with people will be its outcome..
All this will ultimately support Career Planning....Each is related to other by some means...

Lets see what am i going to do..Its a Suspense...Even for me...

Are the Core IT folks Under performing – My Cognizance

There was a comment from an IT giant that engineers specialized in Core areas like Computer Science and Information Technology are not up to the mark when compared with engineers from other majors employed in the software arena…Here are my thoughts.

According to me Software is only a technology that is employed to provide solutions. For an engineer to perform better he or she requires domain knowledge on which they are working .Computer Science professionals are considered to be adroit in the technology but not in the domains on which they work .I think this might be the reason for the under performance by IT folks.

To be frank I have to blame IT guys too, they always think that they are the best in providing IT solutions but they have to be aware of the keen interest shown by Engineers from other majors to surpass the Core IT People and prove themselves to be hard working and competitive in the software genre.

So I thought it’s time to buzz my CSE and IT folks about the need of change in attitude and focus on improving further.

Till now we were running in Rat race it’s time to get ready for lion race…

It’s need of the hour too…

Always be Dynamic

In case of being action oriented too there is something that we can say to be most efficient is being "Dynamic" acting to the situations then and there which needs lots of experience or presence of mind at that moment...Its no point of worrying about the future at present,only thing that would help is to be prepared to meet it on the go..If there is a fire accident in the fourth floor and we are in the sixth floor there is no point worrying .but its nice to be prepared for the fire on sixth floor....

Its pretty tough to be Action Oriented..But we can..

I involve myself a lot in dreaming and meticulous planning to do a course of work but when it comes to reality i think i need to be more effective to bring most out of it ...its all about being action oriented...Its all good to inspired by a thing and dreaming to achieve the same but we should dare to uphold the spirit to live upto the dream and come out with flying colors...My dream is to become business analyst in Software arena and i think i have to foster myself with the skills to be competent enough in my career and you may also have a one like this and you also have to nurture yourself .....
Final Word ---> Be Action Oriented

Repack your bags....

Last week when i was in the reebok showroom to just get me a new trousers i happened to see a quote that was quoted by famous basketball player which goes like this
"You might have all the talents in the world but if you dont have the heart better dont get into the basketball court"
I think this quote is applicable to every thing in one's life ... so i have a word for my friends who are awaiting for their lucrative IT pay packages and ofcourse their job offers... they should rethink ontheir destiny and repack their bags to travel towards the destiny where their soul and heart would love to be...

State of IT in India

India is the second fastest growing economy in the world and IT plays a major role in contributing to the economy. Though the IT field accounts for 5.5 % of the Gross Domestic product rate of India, the present drive of this field doesn’t seem to be fair since we depend mostly on American markets where the dollar value weakens day by day its no more stable. They pay us in dollars and we are no more going to get paid as per the deal due to the fluctuations in the dollar rates. We are now concentrating on European markets to generate revenues. I m afraid we could not sustain for a long depending on other markets .It would be better to concentrate on Indian markets where there is a lot of room for improvement .Indian IT giants need act as solution providers rather than being service provides. They should concentrate more on research part where this could lead to develop solutions so that we could bring out products like Microsoft Windows, Mac OS. This could revolutionize the way of computing. We have very less number of IT professionals pursuing research work compared to our counterpart china. I feel that Indian IT companies should arm themselves with skills to face the challenges offered by various sectors in India who are now dependent on foreign companies for developing the solutions they need. Foreign countries act smarter by using our IT work force for their growth by paying our people very less. Why don’t our IT geeks work for the growth of our nation by making themselves capable of being solution providers for the sectors in our nation that are thriving for growth..If this could be made possible then i think both the nation and IT would prosper to greater heights in the coming days

Life teaches me at the traffic signal

A few days back i was waiting at the traffic signal ,way back to the college ...i found a cute little girl sittting at the back of her mother in a 2 wheeler...still the red light is on and at the time they were waiting for the green signal the little girl was reciting 4th multiplication table and testing herself whether she could remember or not...for 2 consecutive times she could not get her thing right each time she made a mistake in the middle she started again from the beginning without giving up...while she was starting the third time her mother said dont strain much..relax and observe things...U will get it right after some time...
In this context i learned two things the courage of the girl to not give up and the mother's words which says relax and have fun at the mid of tough times..... This is how the life brings some ray of hope and fun into your soul...

Celebrate People

Today i felt as if i was reaping my rewards for celebrating people..when i had a phone call from my brother asking for info on buying new mobile...on the other hand friend called me over to his home to unpack his new laptop..and many more which made me realise how people value me . I strongly believe that people around me value me a lot since im valuing them a lot..I do small things to keep them happy and i too derive some happiness out of it....Always some small things which u do in favor or caring of others brings them tons of pleasure happiness and joy ...You might be the one of the richest person but if you dont know to value people then you are out.....You should pack up your bags to get out of this global arena.
" You get what you celebrate "
I Celebrate people ...I want u also to...

The Alchemist....

Just a few days back i finished reading the book " The Alchemist" by Paulo Cohleo,a brazilian author..

This book is a fable about a sepheard who travels miles and miles before he discovers his destiny..

It has in itself imbibed

" if somebody has a strong desire to acheive their destiny then the whole universe conspires with them"

It also talks about Beginners Luck,Theory of favorability and lot more that would definitely invoke a strong desire in ourself to self discover and get focused on our destiny...

The Ending of the book was so simple but strong and powerful...

The Alchemist - A fabulous Fable

Do read the book if you get a chance... dont ever miss a chance to get wildly enthusiastic...

Shyaminks - The first post

I think this entry of the blog would talk some fundamentals about me

Recently i read the below quote in a book and found that it would be apt to adopt it into my life and even you too can..

" Its boring to be today as same as you were yesterday"

If somebody asks what is success for you i would say " Its nothing but Growth"

Whatever may be the amount/percentage of growth ,it may be even 0.1% from the previous but any positive rise is Growth and it's how i define success......

I Celebrate people and strongly believe that Small things bring great joy...

This is want Iam today...I m sure that i would add a lot to the above in the coming days which would induce a positive difference in me and this blog would reflect the same..

Everybody have their own destines and each one follows a different path..experiences a lot..learns a lot...Enjoys a lot

I too have my own destiny and im cruising towards the destination..I learn a lot from the experience along the journey..cherish lots of moments....Shyaminks would bring into light the path im following towards my destiny..
