THREE MONTHS - STUPID IN ME EXPLORED

It has been three months since i have posted my last blog and its now i thought of rembarking it after a gap of three months,and ofcourse the reason for not blogging is nothing much productive was happening around the corners of my life.If at all i could say something productive , i would say i have understood how a ideal brain can drain out all your energy,dynamism,passion, pulls you down at most of times and above all how could it give you a sense of insecurity.

Since the time i left the college, i have done a list of stupidities..

1.I joined for a course at IMS for CAT training, i attended only some five classes that too never focussed on it,waste of 8000 bucks.For me clearing the competitive exams was the most hasty thing in this world so though i tried a lot,i could not win my mind in sitting to prepare for CAT, but there was always a burning desire to join MBA.( i do understand it is nt fair,but to be true it was my state)

2. I came to Chennai took a room along with my friends, went out searching for Jobs,there wasnt a shortage of reccomendations but people couldnt help me out, only thing why they cant was because they could nt offer me a non technical profile which i was i need off. I could nt stay in chennai for a long time, i did nt like it too..so i said a good bye to chennai and left.

My take on Chennai - a worst place to live @ economy class.

3. Went home and was sitting idle but after some time,my astrology chart predictions said me to stay in a seperate room away from my home , I did it too...but nothing happened too fabulous instead things were so worse.

4. Then came the fantasy of having my own small venture as like a Play School or CBSE school, same way i explored every possibility and atlast people said you cant earn much out of all these and its pretty tough to brand such institutions at this point of time without any post expericence,again my dreams shattered.

5.Then came the so called fantasy of higher education abroad,i did every possible search to find the best course that could offer me with business profile and atlast found out Mbus in SAP @Victoria university,Australia .At that point of time, i heard people saying Job opportunities are much less so i dropped my plan abruptly.

All through these five steps, if i can say i had some air to breath ,then i would say that was the back up option i had -Cognizant job and my joining of MBA @ Amrita as a dream.

"COMPETENCY - PASSION - MONEY - LUCK - ALL THATS THE NEED OF HOUR "

Take Stock of the Situation

For a typical fresh Engineering graduate like me waiting for his/her company call letters or placements,at the time of what we call an economic downturn or in stock market vocab -a market correction,or to put it even more simpler a BLEAK juncture,whose most amazing part is that it showcases you with tons of eye catchy,wangling ,multitude,diverse,"not so passionate for you" opportunities for you in this flat world.This most confusing,job hunger hitherto may covet you to pursue those wangling mission of serendipity for virtual glory,which you are in no need of at the end of game but what you are in search of is an accolade in your own dimension .So to be precise about the dimension,With all those outside fantasies wandering in our minds,our heart finds it so tough to find out what we are really passionate about,not only about what we are passionate ,but also for what we are ready to toil our self to make our footprints a fashion in our area of passion.But i fear the evil may pull us from the race lane and take us entirely away from our destination.So its the moment to take stock of the situation and invigorate ourselves to travel in our zealous path.

Catch 22 - On a voyage towards Destiny

It had been hardly two months from then when i left the bounds of Kongu and its time to introspect the life outside the institution.On those days when i was at Kongu i really enjoyed myself not with all those academic credentials but with all those fruitfulness that i got out accomplishing the responsibilities that was assigned to me as a placement coordinator or as a program coordinator.I was enjoying all those tiresome work - planning and executing the plan with utmost perfection to the best of my ability and have been an initiator for most of the agendas on my own personal interest.Whenever i accomplish a task, i used to energize myself with a thought that i am adding value to me ,so that I could shine in my career that's due in the future.Now the future being here, the days outside Kongu is not so fabulous to offer me with Responsibilities of a kind which im passionate about.So the story of me is here
"I am a starved traveler on a life lane towards business arena,four years back when i started my journey towards the destiny with out knowing my strong intentions my mom boarded me into an alienated ship called "Engineering" since the World said its the Savior of the Earth, i had no way to escape from the ship, so i managed to find some food for mind and also packed up pile of human network along with me on my way to the shore and the Captain (Almighty)made it a bon voyage too,i thought the captain of the ship would drop me at a shore that would be awesome but he failed.Instead he dropped me in middle of a deep ocean and asked me to use any of the various available life boats to reach my destiny.I chose the Cognizant life boat to reach the Management horizon but the life boats chief said "I am sure i cant board you now but for sure will board you by March 2010 but till then you keep on sinking/swimming in the ocean,more than this i cant help you" so now i am helpless , i know only a bit of swimming and above all i am tired of monotonous sinking and swimming at the same place without any food to my mind .Captain haven't said me where to find some bliss,fun,frolic,satisfaction,success,and most importantly some food for my mind.At least the captain could have thought me a better swimming.Anyway hope the captain would get me some shelter for my soul ,food for my mind amidst the middle of ocean till the time comes for my life Cognizant to take me towards the business horizon.I am thinking of a stint at an Island named Amrita for a course of two years to sharpen my skills on the way to the Management horizon,Will the Cognizant lifeboat drop me at the Amrita Island to acclimatize myself with the corporate nuances.Who Knows ? Only the Captain (Almighty) knows...Captain could you get me a clue for this...Not possible fine...I don t need it now..First of all get me a shelter to my soul where it can cherish the accomplishments of responsibilities as of now...That would be your greatest help for me...HELP !!! HELP!!! Do you hear me Captain.."

Roots of Success

At the end of day, fruitfulness for a person depends on the accomplishment of passionate tasks.If you are ready to accomplish and achieve the goals you set in your areas of interest,next moment the World is ready to offer you with some more responsibilities that is directly proportional to increase in you power of influence and once range of influence gets higher,the probability of accomplishing GOALS get higher and eventually the ultimate success according to the Indian Philosophy namely "Wealth" adorns you.

On catching the roots of Success and Happiness,its not the money we make out ,but its the pride and joy we derive from accomplishments of our passionate tasks that matter at the end of the day.

For a passionate worker even a penny earned is worth a platinum

"No eyes are sharp enough to catch the riches in a hut and debits in a palace"

Boys Vs Girls in my Life...

It was today when i thought of Boys Vs Girls in my life...Living in a predominantly male society i always note there exists an ego between girls and boys as who is superior than the other.According to me both are equal and is special in their own way of leading life, its up to us to accept them as they exist in nature.I treat them as equal,for me boys and girls are not so different,as i do with boys i share A to Z with girls .Might be i can say i feel like sharing much of my emotions and feeling with girls since they are good in expressing their care for us by nature.Even my boys community care for me more than the other but they don't express their care as girls do and this doesn't mean that girls are more caring than boys.They are just good at expressing,the same boys does manifold without expressing.Likewise boys are good at the art of being frank and speaking from the heart,but at times girls do hesitate to do that for me,they feel shy or think they would hurt me.But boys would be so frank or more even sarcastic.My guys are good at this .So according to me both the male community and female community of my friends list are unique being very special in very different multitude aspects.So its up to us to find a balance between the two different genre instead of being egoistic and speaking about the superiority and inferiority.And ofcourse, I am in pursuit of finding the perfect balance.For Plan of action,read the book "Men are from Mars,Women are from Venus" I am gonna do that,Join with me to find the wisdom.

Im 21 Today - And its all bcoz of these Stars of My Life

Its high time to mention those people whom i value the most for making my life so beautiful,learnable,and what not i deserve for
(Disclaimer : For Sure the chronology doesnt matter)
My Dad - He is the man whom i admired from the day one i was aware of myself,i admire him for his flair for helping the needy,his concern for family and for every single dexterity he posses.
Ofcourse he is the role model for me on how to reach the pinnacle starting from the roots.
Tamil Selvan - My very first friend right from my UKG till now,he is the closest friend.Very frank,Speaks reality haven't seen him acting or bluffing,u can trust him a lot bcoz i trust a very few for multiple aspects and he is one whom i bestow trust upon for every single aspect.
Priyadharshini - My cousin sister,though i got close to her only four to five years back,she is the first girl whom i opened up my mind to speak out so frank.She is the one whom taught me about those frequency of girls,inspiration for making so many girls so special on my list and above all i have no reason to accept her in spite of all those indifference we have.Like here so much!!!
Dr.A.M.Natrajan -Former Principal - KEC ,a source of inspiration who fostered in me the crave to work in management genre.I usually make note of his each and every move from so silly things to the big ones,his vision,his perspectives,way of handling things,every nuance he posses is really a guiding light.He is my mentor for my career.
Jothi Akka - Our home servant , She works with us right from when i was born,I am sure i would not have grown this much without her being in our place turning all my parents prosperity into food served with care ,to be frank she knows what i m in need of better then anybody else.Without her it would not have been possible to spend so much time when my mom and dad arre not at home for long times.Inspite of changing situations indifferences, she has been there for me.
Sindhu - My first friend who is a girl in the college,my class mate,she holds a place next to my sister,She knows every single thing about me ,i have shared everything with her A to Z,we trust each other a lot,I can easily understand what she is thinking,Understood her so much,She is Very possesive about and i too a little.Times spent with her is the best of my college life.
Sowmiya - Again its my class mate ,closest friend of mine -a character who got into my life pretty late compared to the time i expected her,though i got her late she have managed to compensate all those lost moments in a four months time,she is very caring ,flexible,very particular about satissfying my expectations and not hurting me,We have shared a lot with each other, One special thing is Im her very very close friend ..its a testimony for how intimate we are in our life .
Nithya - Its my class mate again, a good friend of mine,so inspiring,caring,very sarcastic with me,has been with me all along my downtimes kindiling the spirits of good times,a good advisor,accepts people as they are and i note she is very possesive about me.She tooks so much pain to keep me always at ease inspite of whatever i do to her ,she shoulders the pain on her and says you havent done anything .Greatness Personified.
Saravanan - My favourite buddy in our class,You want an epitome for the words "In simplicity lies the real happiness" you can take him.Very flexible,adoptive and maintains very positive relationship with every body.Speaks less but sensible.Had lotz of fun with him.Learnt a lot from him and i dont wanna miss him in the days to come.
Vasudevan - I got close with him only in the third year,in most of the cases we go along with same frequency right from the thoughts we posses about each aspect to the food stuff we eat at ,but dont know why KFC..tis same DNA makes us so special.A great chap to spend time with,you can greatly enjoy his sense of humor and again speaks a lot sensible fitting to reality of life.

Kaven -Two different frequencies coming along so close is a miracle and its myself and Kaven ,we have never gone unanimous in any thought The two different frequencies,we never go along on most of the matter ,We have been so close all along these four years,we both expect a lot from each of us,the greatest asset i posses through him is their family network,he values me a lot for suggestions and trusts me to an extend,What makes him so special is he takes advantage of me a lot and in turn values me.

Ashok - My college mate,great companion during hostel days and of course now,a good advisor on relationships,adventure and reality of life.Certified for Trustworthiness.Trying out different things is his passion.Im always curious on looking out how different he tries hands on.You want me to name somebody as a Good Friend on multitude aspects i would name Ashok

Ram anna -My cousin brother indeed a very distant relative but stays close not only to my home but also to my heart.My source of inspiration to deal tough times in family issues,also shares lots of wisdom on very small noteworthy things.A great companion of me in family bounds.
Easvar - Famously known as Dhadha - Enga college nattama,Maturity personified,So humorous,Caring at times,of course my life saver-saved me from an accident,room mate right from first year,Once committed he never steps back,Lotz to say but in a word so Humane.
Pradeep -Infoscian,my room mate again from the first year,ofcourse my life saver along with easvar,Very caring at same time very sarcastic,Trustworthy,Advice u can get it here free of cost -0fcourse it would be valuable,Bit hard working,He would keep you at ease if you could understand him better.
Sasidharan -My final year room mate,he is one among very few whom im more possesive about,i enjoy his company a lot and always look forward his presence but i would fail miserably by missing those mostly.Anyway at times together he has always been a source of inspiration,had lots of fun ,both of us havent expressed our love on eachother mostly but anyhow behind althose untold words we are so intimate.
Panneer- In a single line, a tension free, very balanced -multitude personality,very flexible,a good companion round the clock but again i fail miserably in enjoying our times together at most of times.
Parnidharan-A person whom you can ask for anything from A to Z,he will atleast give you some stuff in turn,times with him r those which would be learnable in some aspect.He maintains a very well balanced relationships,good at managing things,smart at work and again an all rounder.

Tonz of thoughts in my mind..

All these days enjoying round the clock with full of those College day ,Farewell days,Ooty trekking,Moonar tours and those long lasting memories of my last days at the college.Just today i stuck up with the idea of blogging since i was pretty down.Though all these days the outsets of my mind was full of zeal with all those mind blowing friends,accolades for placement team,the opportunity to speak in the farewell,those cruises with my friends to ooty ,moonar and wat not..Now do i realise there is inner core of mind which was pricking me always for hurting my friends .. its says "you are deriving pleasure by hurting many" ...Am nt I making justification to my friendship....My heart is pricking me for not contributing to my final year project..This moment questions me whether do you deserve all these joy ,zeal,fun and frolic ...If i deserve all these it should have nurtured me to be at great heights and inturn full of greater spirits kindiling the soul in pursuit of excellence.why it pulls me down so much..making me like the only soul who doesnt deserve the real tint of happiness..Oh God ! My saviour answer me - Do I deserve a Ray of hope by filling myself with real happiness derived from not hurting others,justifying my responsibilities - If so do bless me with the Wisdom for that..Show some light upon on my life and let the light be glowing forever ,make me too shine in the days to come.I dont want you to make me shine but just give me the power , Let I make myself shine.

Twin Factors to be at Best

I read from an article that whenever something goes wrong in the mission Abdul Kalam s boss would address the press and whenever they achieve something he will ask Kalam to address the press meet its symbolic significance of taking the responsibility of failure and giving the benefit,fame of success to the persons who worked in his team.This is what Robin Sharma says Leadership is all about responsibility.At some times even friendships would be better if you could take responsibility for your friends mistake or communication gap or anything that would collapse the integrity of your friendship.Acceptance is the key to take the responsiblity on your shoulders when something goes wrong. So ready to accept and be responsible for both good and bad whether the reason for it is you or your friends .That would really help you to be at the best flying with good times....GOD BLESS....

Care for those who crave ! Not for Dont care's !

The person who loves you the most is always second to person whom you love the most, so never ever let first one down for the second.You may be none to some one but you may be the world to somebody else.There are lots of people who crave for your affection and attention,there are lots of people left unnoticed by you who crave for being noticed by you,lots of people who took pains to satisfy you,many people crave for your presence to share their joy and sorrow.But mostly we don t satisfy them.So commit yourself towards helping the needy,providing emotional support to needy - in simple terms like replying messages with care,wishing them on important days,maintaining a good human network - The strategy is so simple there are many who crave,so don t always try ur power of care on people who don t care for you to the core.

You are the King

If you accept people as they are ,life as it comes and keep acting towards corrective measures to reach the destiny,without reacting to those then YOU ARE THE KING
If you could expand your degree of responsibility day after day,taking responsibility to an extend of being responsible for all the things that happens in and around then YOU ARE THE KING
If you could understand Happiness is Within you and not elsewhere,all extrinsic elements are just triggers or platforms to exhibit happiness within then YOU ARE THE KING
If you could not be shattered by expectations that are not met,the haunt of loneliness and negative thoughts,emotions YOU ARE THE KING
If you are occupied with thirst to reach your goal,stay focused full of positive attitude geared up with confidence to scale great heights growing day by day YOU ARE THE KING

Art of Living - Step forward to Greatness..

Just a step forward in the direction of nourishing the mind as a follow up of previous posts i was happened to attend a seven day art of living course. It gave insights into lotz of concepts that would be the key to succeed...I have read nearly about ten books on Self improvement but this single course was equal to those thousands of pages...Everything i learn t in those books were clearly summed up in simple terms... Thanks a billion to Mr.Srinivasan,my instructor..and to Ashok,Kicha whose testimonials about the course inspired me to attend the course...Really it was Worth attending...

Is Happiness - Intrinsic/ Extrinsic

Its all about whether happiness is within or it also has a great deal of contribution by others..Take for instance i feel happy when i spend time with Sindhu ,My sister and my loved ones...but if they dont respond to me properly or say they r busy with some other work arent in a positon to respond or somehow those people really don't want to.. What is the purpose of i am worrying... Is thats what meant by i could nt find happiness within me..Next the word "BORING" has become the most famous vocabulory in my communications these days...I dont have a clarity of what to do worthy that ends up in boring and inturn i wish people could engage me..Why could not i engage myself in mission of finding happiness within.... I really dont have a reason for being moody at times (mean most of the times) why could not i stay at my best all the time...Is something missing in me,if so whats it ? Answers r welcome !!!
Yet its left unexplored - "Is Happiness Intrinsic / Extrinsic ?"

Is Shyam a Man of Emotional Galore

There is nothing like "EMOTIONS" to help you climb up or pull you down to ground.. its a challenge for me on how to handle this....One side of the coin is like positive emotions that help you to climb up the ladder....the other side is negative emotions..Loneliness is the best place for negative emotions to breed ....if i sit idle the next moment i would not be idle since i am already occupied with the most popular negative emotions...Negative emotions in turn trigger negative thoughts and in turn negative action...is it an avalanche effect... What is the root cause ? -lack of control over our body - both mind and physical components....Right from my child hood I have never took pains to nourish mental and physical components - fundamentals of greatness in life...The need of the hour is to nourish them through simple exercises,healthy food,meditation...I have to strengthen the fundamentals to achieve great heights.

Make Expectations that are Inbound...

Today i went for the film "Abiyum Naanum" it portrays the relationship between dad and daughter..a very sentimental n emotional movie worth watching...had tears in my eyes ya at times i am emotional..I am working towards improvising on emotional quotient...Well Apart from my thoughts to have a daughter like princess and take the dad in that film as a role model to bring up my daughter....

Film thought me a crystal clear lesson " Expectations should be Inbound "...

Like when u expect some thing from external entity like your friend or a relative it might r might not be satisfied because they have their own expectations on themselves and u might r might not go along with their frequency..

But if you start expecting from yourself ...here in this case you are the major influencing factor so there is a high probability of satisfying your expectations...

So i say apart from Care and love you better expect less from your loved ones and start expecting more from yourself that will reap you rich benefits....

I too have lots of personal experience on this.....

Media acts Irresponsible - Barrier for Nations Growth

I have been watching CNN,Times-Now,all those news media for a quiet a long time..A single thing which i always find in common is the way they boost up things beyond reality... if its like there is a expected fall of 2 % in market... they say market is expected to crash...But they dont even add that it will bounce back soon which would happen in real sense.

Same has been noted in Mumbai terror attacks and Satyam scandal..Mumbai attack was not so big as 9/11 but they named it as India s 9/11....That have created so much agitation among people even though we had enough armed men to tackle the problem.

In Satyam scandal they are following the same..Apart from creating agitation among people..they make India an inappropriate place for foreign investments which obviously results in down turn of economy..but that should not be happening because India has rigors to face these challenges

Indian Economy has not become so much bad compared to other nations we are just devoid of increase in growth rate while other nations are in negative growth.. i mean they are degrading but we are stable..Its fairly enough to withstand the turbulent times instead of degrading..Yes we are on the right track withstanding tough times seeing problems as challenges and have been learning lessons out of it..

With all those recession stuffs if Infosys could produce 33% increase in profits and even TCS n Wipro performs better.... Then i think the IT sector must havent been ruined to core..there is lot of room for growth but media says IT wont boom back for years.Media always good at expecting the unexpected in a negative sense but never thinks of positivity in it..

So Media should nt be only source of information for decision making in case of individuals shaping their career ..People have to go beyond the TV screens and think with Pro activeness to cruise long leaps in tough times..

A Small thing brought Significant change in thoughts...

These days I was feeling bored because of holidays... not having much stuff to do...I am passionate about becoming an Human Resourse Manager (ofcourse a leader too) thats all i know.... But i have nt had any clear action plans as of what to do to acheive it...I have been struggling for quiet a long period of time....
Just today i started thinking of next step towards climbing great heights... I came out with lots of option like working for as a trainee HR consultancy firm ..doing a SAP- HR package..BIM Bangalore s PGDBM course..LIBAs Executive Diploma programs...and what not there are lots of opportunities around...
Now as i came out with multitude ideas next i have to analyse each and every option to select the best to build a bright career....
Nothing much the above were the outcome of these words "Stay simple and consistent,observe things and analyze u will refine your strengths and character" that were on recent gtalk status message of Ashok,a good friend of mine...

Thanks a billion Ashok for making me think out of lots of opportunities...

2009 has its own Challenges...

When majority of the people start this New year with great component of fun i was cornored to kick start this year with a bed rest..Though i m confident enough that this year would assure me with enough challenges,opportunities,lessons,fun,growth,prosperity and above all pink of health. I have my own dreams and goals to acheive for this year.Have to align myself towards acheiving them and even i need to maintain balance between various components of life.Its really a big deal and need lot of effort to empower myself and keep growing...Need of the hour is clarity of thoughts..Action plans..and being dynamic..have to work towards it to keep life going great...

Last / Lost Moments of the year 2008

The last day of the year was indeed a lost moment spending time in the hospital for getting treatment to  minor fracture in my left leg..hmmm..have to take rest for ten whole days in bed..its a bit tough for person like me who planned my new year eve in pondy and also have sacrifice my opportunities to enjoy,have fun and even too grow..its really irritating to keep myself idle..anyway i am commited towards doing that..with all those relations around in home..the day and of course the year ended with  good signs of cofindence and wishes for a happy nd a healthy new year 2009...Im sure that this new year too will bring many Opportunities and Challenges that needs some courage and commitment towards handling them.Thank u almighty for the lessons u gave me to learn in 2008 and of course for a fresh year 2009

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...
