World - Theories & Their Followers

VIDEO LINK : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQZEjjHPn6Y

Believing a sworn enemy is tough to anyone. However, if at all someone decides to take that risk, then what sort of precautions he has to take? Again, because we are using the word ‘precaution’, does it mean that the belief is not 100%? And in what scenario does one has to believe in his sworn enemy?

Enemy and belief cannot go together in a sentence. If they are there, then it looks like that this sentence is part of an oxymoron speech. But, what type of people does that? People who believe in pacifism; they do not believe in the ratiocination of the world of which they are part of. They show overweening confidence in rapprochement with enemies. Actually, as per them, there is no such thing called enmity in this world. There is no US and THEM but WE.

Enmity is a sordid stuff. Solemn people, who believe in pacifism, avoid enmity in all circumstances. However, the twist is that the same pacifism believers fight with their wife or girl friend to enjoy swashbuckling adventures in their personal lives. In this case, they don’t believe in pacifism stuff!

Any self proclaimed core follower of a theory has to implement his believed theory in all areas of his life, which is not the case in this world. In summary, any theory is suitable to be followed only in certain areas of life; not all. Does this mean no theory is perfect?

How to Manage Your Temper?

Temper is a great emotion. Normally, the tendency is to treat that as a bad emotion.  People who got more temper show exasperate behavior. Their attitude is ineffable. Once the temper rises in them, they become insouciant to others and lose their ratiocination. What makes a person get angry depends on so many reasons; for example: personal, family, financial, etc.

Life is a set of mottled expressions. If a nexus forms between all the events that happen in our lives, then they will be in a pacific [peaceful] state without any hiccups. Grumpy people have very little tolerance. Half of their life, they focus on petty things which destroy peace both in their case and their surroundings.

A few people maintain a cool expression though they are serious inside. These people know how to maintain themselves when their tempers flare up.  They simply do not put display their bad temper to their subordinates or dependents. Life is a 2-way road. It does not take much time to boomerang what you dished out a few hours ago.

In summary, it is always better to control your temper and channelize its energy to accomplish what you have been dreaming for.

How to Cut Down Obesity?

Obesity! The new disease on the block; so many people are affected by this already. Living life becomes tough with this. Even day-to-day activities become difficult to do. Excess weight leads to bone problems. The skin becomes loose and gives a flabby look. In the case of a few people, even standing becomes difficult. Sitting always in a same place ruptures skin and this leads to additional problems. After a certain point, even doing small exercises becomes difficult. On the whole, living life itself becomes a big hurdle.

There are so many fixes out there across the world, which promise to cut down obesity within a span of a few hours to days. There are renowned doctors and surgeons, who have been prescribing fixes for obesity left, right, and center. Nevertheless, so far, no one prescribed a permanent fix for obesity. People who have undergone the knife are seeing instant results. However, these results are for short period and these are based on severe diet restrictions. If the diet restrictions have not been followed, regaining back to old form won’t take much time.

People do what not to cut down obesity. The most frequently instantly used weapon is to starve them for a certain period. Cut down on carbohydrate diet and take only protein diet. Hit gym and rigorously train one’s self under the guidance of a trainer to come into shape. Ladies, particularly, try to do all the preceding points every day until they see themselves in shape. If nothing is working, people undergo operations, where a certain part of the stomach is punched off to limit the food intake permanently. This way, people become lean within a short span of time. However, the other side of the issue is side effects.

In summary, nowadays, being in shape has lot of importance. Obesity throws body out off the guard. Even, after doing rigorous exercise and taking proper diet, if obesity does not go down, then it is better to consult a doctor immediately. It is always better to nip something in the bud.  If parents identify that their children to obesity, then they have to precautionary measures immediately.

Happy health!

Pursuing Pet Projects in Workplaces

The concept of allowing to work on one’s pet projects in office time is an innovative concept. There are companies (around the world), who have been toying with this idea and already started reaping so many benefits. What is it that motivates people to innovate? When they innovate? Only if we say that something is yours, only then people start to put their entire focus on that task and produce fabulous results? Or is it that quality time that they spend with themselves or with like-minded people while working on their pet project that helps them to produce incredible results?

Whatever is the reason, pet projects have special status in one’s own life. While working on official projects, people brainstorm a lot to prove themselves competent to their superiors and peers. They focus their entire energy on one point. They exhaust themselves. Then, they go home. Normally, in this scenario, the next step what anyone expects is to take rest. However, in the case of a person who works on a pet project in parallel, the moment he glances it, his every nerves tightens with excitement. All that exhaustiveness goes out of the window and he regains back his active energy state. Although he has to work a lot on his pet projects, he never feels that he needs lot of energy to accomplish that many tasks. And he is eager to do them without complaining about anything.

Companies and pet projects can go hand in hand. They can mutually support each other in terms of commercial aspects; that means, once a pet project becomes a success and is in line with company’s business, either it can buy it or support the person/group (who successfully completed the project), financially, by buying a stake in their project.

In summary, pet projects really excite people. If they get a chance to work up on them in their workplace, the excitement grows by leaps and bounds. And there is a chance that all like-minded hitherto introvert people also join the project and contribute their level best to make it a success.

Best of luck!

Stretching Hours at Workplace – Right or Wrong?

Most of the people hate this work hour stretching business. However, a few people love to do this. The reasons for doing so may vary. But they do it with penchant. Nevertheless, people stretch their hours at work place in various interesting ways. If a few people don’t prefer to go after their working hours due to some family problems, others continue doing work as if there is no tomorrow after working hours to gain their superior’s attention and peer’s sympathy. Rest, simply don’t know what to do once they reach home [most of the bachelors/spinsters who are working in remote places with no night life access falls in this category] also prefer to spend their after working hours in the workplace.

However, we need to know whether stretching hours at work place is good for our career. The answer is a strict NO. The question is why you have to stretch your hours in the first place? Whatever may be your reason, it does not give a good opinion about you to your superiors.

However, if you are planning to stay late, the best thing is that you should let your superior know beforehand why you are going to do it on a particular day. Most of the times, it is better if you complete your assigned tasks on the specified time and push off at the right time from the office premises. Unnecessary stretching just to grab attention creates unwanted problems; sometimes, extra work would be passed on to you by your peers who take it for granted that you stay there at least 4 hours after your working hours. And other times, your peers may think like this; since you are not efficient for getting things done in specified time, you stretch your hours, unreasonably.

In summary, getting things done in specified number of hours when it comes to office work is good for your body, mind, soul, and career. Unnecessary stretching of hours for attention grabbing business or just to get a hike by inciting sympathy in the heart of your superior may backfire most of the times.

Good luck!

How to Control Rudeness in Society?

Rudeness or incivility is not entertained in civilized societies. Being rude to anyone is considered as bad manners. However, we have people staying with us who act rude to get their things done day-in and -out. Is rudeness a weapon or an uncontrollable attitude which people develop since their childhood?  If this is a behavioral problem, what plans do teachers have to nip this disgusting behavior in the bud? How parents deal with this behavior of their kids and try to avoid it in the initial stage itself?

A person is given respect in this society based on his dress, manners, and culture. If the guy is not up to the mark in not even in a single parameter, his social status goes down. And for so many people in this society, social status is important. Kings in olden days used to have people who are paid to praise the king whenever he wants. And what they praise? The answer is that king’s previous valorous deeds, mind-blowing donations, his way of bringing down his enemies, etc. Nevertheless, if the same person who has been praising the king utters even one negative statement about the same king due to slip of tongue or whatever, he was used to be given severe punishment for his rudeness; most of the cases, it is severing of head.

We maintain double standards when it comes to rudeness. Nowadays, in reel world, we see heroes oozing rudeness in all their activities. He utters uncivilized rude dialogs every now and then and the world claps as if he revealed some hidden truth that has the potential to save this world from falling into utter chaos. The same statement, if a person in the real world makes, then utter chaos happens not only around that person but also regarding the statement he made. This hypocrisy has to stop. Actually, by entertaining this hypocrisy, we are not sending a right message to the future generations.

In summary, everyone should realize that rudeness is bad and entertaining it pushes us back to Stone Age. We all should promise to ourselves to condemn rudeness in any form whenever we encounter it.

Good luck! 

How to Negotiate Slopes During Trekking?

People refer hill ‘slope’ as an analogy to indicate ‘difficulties’ and ‘easiness’ in a particular situation in their discussions. To convey that a particular task is difficult to do, they say it is an uphill task. If doing a particular task is so easy, then they say it is just like running down a slope. However, if you are a trekker, in either case (while going down and climbing up), you need to be very careful. The first thing is that you should need a good pair of sneakers, which have a good grip, and other supporting trekking equipment, which helps you to save yourself from falling down while negotiating slopes.

Running on steep slopes is quite dangerous as the possibility of falling down and breaking your knees is more. You need lot of control over your body while negotiating slopes. If you are going up the slope, you have to spend lot of energy. Athletes train themselves negotiating slopes. They religiously go for uphill slopes to increase their stamina. Downhill slopes require lot of control on your body; however, your body consumes less energy while going down the slope compared to going up.

Ankles play a great role in your body while dealing with slopes. Steeper the angle, more the grip you require. The chances of getting skid are more while negotiating steeper slopes. You need to wear sneakers, which have a good grip.

When you are trying to climb a hill, during trekking, always look out for something strong to hold and which gives you a grip. The best thing is to have a strong stick in your hand which has a sharp edge. So, before you make a step, first, try to pierce the stick (with the sharp edge side) in the ground with force. Once you get the hold, then move your body one step further. This way, you can minimize the chances of falling down the slope.

In summary, slopes test your energy and patience levels. If your body is fit and you have a technique, then you are ready to go. Otherwise, get ready to break your bones!

Good luck!

Is Serendipity there in Your Life?

Why some people experience serendipity in their lives while majority of the others cannot do that? Is serendipity experience limited to a selected few? Why so? On what basis does one can experience serendipity?

 Serendipity is the fortunate occurrence of events by chance. Are these people the chosen ones? In this world, people who have experienced serendipity, in most of the cases, they become either uber rich or knowledgeable. All panegyric speeches in this world, in general, talk about rich, bold, and rectitude behaviors. If a person does good deeds in this birth, serendipity comes his way in future births to make his life easy; this is the way most of the eastern countries think. Their religious philosophy also supports this saying.

If rectitude behavior is the key to experience serendipity, which in turn lot of pleasant surprises, then why in this world not many people are following that? Does this mean doing bad things give more pleasure than doing good? Or people cannot wait for such a long time to experience pleasant serendipity related surprises? Anyway, people have that pleasure seeking attitude and they do everything to experience them.

Happiness is the underlying reason why people pursue different tasks. From a mentally disabled person, who maunders to himself, to a noveau riche, who squanders his wealth with incivility, everyone pursues happiness. Happiness pursuing is there in spiritual angle also; take the case of a saint who scampers every day morning to take bath and worship his lord is nothing but a case of pursuing happiness. However, all these happiness pursuing events are part of serendipity in everyone’s life.

In summary, serendipity is there in all of our lives. However, the quality and quantity of that pleasantness is little for a few and medium or huge for some others. The reason for this variance lies in our good deeds done in our previous births; as per eastern philosophy. 

How to Spend Your Riches?

What is the point of being rich if you cannot spend a single penny either for yourself or needy people around you? If you think, you are saving money, then it can be taken as noting but a ridiculous statement. We are all here on this planet as visitors. However, when we started our journey on this planet, the Supreme Power, whom we believe that has sent us here, has given some of us good health, fame, money, etc, along with different talents and skills. Besides, everyone is given something intangible thing called LUCK. Although its percentage is very little in any one of our case, but it rules a significant part of our life.

Incredulously, when we leave this planet, we can’t and won’t take anything along with us. All those panegyric speeches, parsimonious behaviors, incivility attitude, etc, we leave here.  Saints, who roamed around this planet long time ago, told us in their maundering that we all have to focus on HIM; not on the goods that he has given us.

Serendipity is something initiated by Supreme Power in the lives of a few, who has done good deeds in their previous births. During this good period, if we do bad things to others, then again the same Supreme Power punishes us by filling our lives with poorness and dumbness. All of us, most of the times, scamper our way to God, every day morning, and request HIM ‘N’ number of wishes. We promise that we don’t do bad things but never try to implement that rectitude behavior in real-time.

We all need to realize that the day we start doing bad things in life and get benefits from them, we are travelling on a scarp with NO RETURN ticket. By the time people realize this, they might have traveled several miles on that scarp and now, it is not possible for them to return to pious life.

The lifestyle followed by noveau riche is one example to support the above statement. As long as they lay their hands on wealth, they spend it on different not useful activities. Once the coffers are empty, only then they remember who they are and what they can do on this planet.

In summary, as long as you are in possession of money and skill, try to be useful to those needy others around you by adding value to whatever they do.

Good luck!

Writer’s Contribution to this Planet

A writer’s pen name [nom de plume] is a reflection of his character and mindset. While a few writers opt for opposite sex names, some go with things names that brought them luck, and rest go with peculiar phrases  for easy popularity and recognition.

A writer always has to outwit his reader. Predictability in his writings sounds anathema to a writer’s popularity. Having a particular bent of mind and using a few regular words to describe all varieties of situations, do not take a writer to places in today’s world. Using trendy words, infusing fire in your reader’s thoughts, bringing inspiration to your reader’s soul, etc, are expected from a writer nowadays.

Bringing completeness to inchoate ideas is an art which every writer has to learn. An accomplished writer brings his best even while describing a fogey, mawkish, and languid person and projects him as a hero, which his reader wants to willingly identify himself with. That sort of talent cannot come to a person who does not sense what is happening around him and what his readers are hungry for. If you prefer to sit in a corner and write, then you are not writing for your audience but for yourself. It is like sitting in a landlocked place and dreaming about the sunset on a sea shore.

A maudlin attitude writer cannot shine in the market. Financially, most of the writers are not up to the mark because they are incredibly underpaid. Every now and then, we hear about a writer who got fame and money after he died long time ago. While he was living and writing all that stuff, he was facing lot of problems and suffering. May be that suffering has pushed him to write that excellent stuff, which took time for people to realize and start valuing his writings at premium level only after his death. However, there are other writers who initially got fame and money, reached their zenith at a very young age, but crashed down within no time for various reasons. Vices, how small they are, lead to one’s own nemesis.

Irrespective of any language, all the writers across the world share one common thing: capturing their incredible imagination in words. This world survives and advances based on its ability to pass on the existing knowledge to its next generation. And writer’s contribution for this knowledge transfer, since human’s day one on this planet, is very critical.

Mind it!

How to Strengthen Relations?

Relationships should be vibrant and full of energy. A languid relation brings disaster for all the parties involved in it. Especially, relations laced with love should be like live wire. Beware of mawkish relations; they bring tragedy. One should not forge any relation with maudlin mentality people as that sort of relation ends up with sacrificing one’s self.

Just like how a gardener ploughs away weeds every now and then, one has to identify and pluck away all the inchoate relations from one’s own life, frequently. Please remember; if you add so many restrictions to a relation, it suffocates and dies. On the other side, too much freedom loosens and lightens a relation; making the stakeholders of that relation feel that they are there as individuals but not as a group.  

Followers of nihilism cannot understand the value of a relation. A relation, based on its quality and category (ex: father, mother, friend, relative, etc) has lot much to offer. There are so many instances in this world where people who nurtured their relations have achieved an accelerated growth and outsmarted their enemies within a short period of time. People who understand the potential of a relation, tries to grow it by feeding it with lot of love and affection. Once the relation matures, then it starts giving the respective stakeholders all those benefits based on its potential.

In summary, all relations start from fledgling stage. It depends up on the partners of that relation to strengthen and make it grow.

How an Introvert Love Dies?

You know, sometimes, people who are introverts, enter in to dynamic love relationships. Although, they are not sure about themselves, they put lot of belief in their partners to make their love successful (how funny!). Effort-wise, one cannot expect much from an introvert, physically. For example, giving flowers to his/her love every day, telling jokes to make him/her laugh, etc. However, in their hearts, love volcanoes explode every second they think about their partner.

Since there is a huge gap between what they think inside and their expression, most of the times, they get frustrated with themselves. As they build expectations based on their inner feelings about their love partner, which the target partner does not know and because of that reason cannot satisfy the introvert partner’s loving needs, love meter in this case does not cross even safety speed limits.

After spending some time, the other partner realizes that his/her love is not getting reciprocated as per their self expectations; slowly they plan to MOVE ON. The introvert realizes this but still unable to come to terms to save the relation as s/he has to come out of that introvert shell.

An introvert love dies that way!

One-side Love!

One-side love! What is it like? Why people go for it? Why they do it even after knowing that they have to face a disastrous end in that kind of relation? One side love is inchoate; not fully developed. Whoever opts for this love, indirectly, they are locking themselves from other opportunities; similar to a landlocked situation.  

But, who opts for this kind of suicidal relation (is this a relation!)? Answer:  people, who have maudlin mentality and mawkish attitude. Their languid nature with no fire in their heart for some risk appetite and tempting nature for emotional comfort makes them like a ‘ sitting duck’ to get outwitted by their cunning love partners, every time; finally, forcing the person to face the nemesis because of his/her own incompetent actions.

Times changed. The way you love is also changing. Don’t be a fogey! No one pities you even if you get ditched by your witty partner; that is the tendency nowadays! In love, emotional people are more prone to get cheated or taken ride by others, who have that nihilism mentality.

Just like how a writer needs a popular pen name (non de plume), a good pen and a cutting-edge idea to write a ground-breaking story, successful love partnership needs two good lovers who believe in each other. One-side love does not qualify as complete love. It is like a cold call from a call center person in the hope of getting some business, which most of the time ends up in rejection. After reading all the above stuff, if you still opt for one-side love, not even a single soul on this planet can save you from getting ditched.

Best of luck!

How Love Changes HIM?

When a person is in love, his perception regarding everything he sees in his daily life changes. His core inner personality becomes so flexible that mentally he becomes ready to change or mould himself in whatever way his partner wants. All those aggressive traits, which he has been feeding so long, he shoves them under his cool demeanor. He tries to WOW everyone that he comes across in his day-to-day life. He sees different amusing things in earlier monotonous stuff [even cows start dancing in his dreams and doves cry for revenge!], starts taking the same old grumpy things so lightly, and keeps his mood in happy mode at all times. He mows down all those bad habits of his to impress his partner and always look for opportunity to sow ‘happy future’ seeds in her mind about their life partnership.  Every now and then, he checks his partner moves, make a mental note, and tows himself to her wherever she goes.

These changes happen to the mindset of every person who is genuinely in love with someone with whom he decides to spend the rest of his life.

Business – Limitless Opportunities

To lead life the way you want, you have to do something for your living. Regular and consistent amount you need to generate every month. Some people prefer do job and the rest business. Doing job is somewhat cool but the scope of earning is limited.

When it comes doing business, the scope is huge, but needs investment. Profit earning depends upon the business that you chose. Ideas catalyze businesses. Entrepreneurs drive them. Financiers fuel them. And returns attract investors toward it. Huge capital injections bloat them like hydrogen balloons. Then the business spreads around the world, setting up branches wherever it likes & stops. Its online presence attracts so many eyeballs and its branches pull so many footsteps toward them. One cannot find the trace of poverty nearby its presence.  

Business come in many forms: small (home based), big, medium. However, irrespective of whatever category of business you do, the scope is limitless for the right person.

Tourist Places

Tourist places are ineffable. The history that they tell about a place is invaluable. Every tourist place carries remnants of our great tradition and culture. It is the responsibility of every citizen to protect their respective countries tourist places from getting destroyed. Tourists, both domestic and foreign splurge their hard earned money to visit these tourist places across geographies. These people are knowledge savvy and respect every country’s culture and their respective people. Their sojourn journeys really provide big business to the localites. On the other hand, they behave in a sensitive way and never make trenchant statements that hurt the natives. Their loquacious nature and lissome personality (not all of them!) carries the grace that they ooze through their resplendent lifestyle; day in and out. Historians around the globe are overwrought with everyday new findings across the world due to diggings and debate of new theories.

Cost-cutting has become a common thing for governments across the world nowadays due to consecutive recessions. NGOs across the world are requesting their respective governments not to go for retrench activities when it comes to saving historic monuments and places.

If financial matters dictate what to save and what not to save, then it is an indication that we are going backwards; not forward!! Hope, someone is listening!! 

Global Solidarity – Dancers, Gymnasts, & Cultural Activities

Dancers and gymnasts have one thing in common. Physical fitness and universal language! While dancers add emotional expressions to their physical movements, gymnasts focus more on acrobatics. Across the world, one can see more number of femme fatales in these two professions. And they wear leotard for their practice sessions. Both professions require incessant and rigorous practice sessions. Both have potential to entertain people across geographies irrespective of cultural, regional, and language differences.

Due to globalization impact, one can see a new growth wave rising across all the geographies and domains. The old monotonous life filled with uncountable restrictions and loath feelings is now passé. Although, there is still a minority of people who want that old way of life back again, however, majority of the people are thinking in cosmopolitan way. In other words, one can call them global citizens. These people are ingenuous in their speech and expressions when it comes to expressing solidarity with other global citizens residing across the globe.

Whenever people with old mindset express their impugn feelings through their locution about the events that are happening across the globe, global citizens with cosmopolitan outlook are rebuffing these sudden attacks in a sophisticated manner by organizing and participating in cultural exchange programs that strengthens solidarity and infuses new strength among the global citizens.

Underprivileged

Two-thirds of the planet earth is occupied by underprivileged people. Their total earning in a day is less than 1 dollar. Entire family is dependent on a single bread-winner. And there is no promise that the bread-winner gets work every day throughout the year. Most of them are uneducated. They neither have a bank account nor amount to save. They live on daily wages. They stay in huts or temporary accommodations. No medical facilities, no clean water to drink, no gas to cook their food; life is nothing but a misery. But, why we are allowing these underprivileged people to remain as underprivileged? What those elected governments across the geographies are doing?

The recent financial inclusion policy that the governments across the globe are religiously implementing to reach the unreached is already proving itself as a main differentiator when compared with the rest of the policies that have been designed for underprivileged so far. With the help of this policy, which facilitates as a last mile service for the banks to service the rural and urban markets, there is a chance that governments across the world can improve the lives of underprivileged like never before.

Besides, underprivileged people across the world have to understand the situation there are in and make efforts to increase awareness of their hidden potential to change their fortunes across their brethren. They should educate themselves, make use of government provided opportunities in a skillful way, capitalize on the opportunities that they come across in life, and improve the chance of their livelihood. 

Tangerine Girls

Who said girls are made of only ‘sugar and spice’? They are made of ‘tangerine’ stuff also. However, girls made with tangerine exhibit different personality altogether. Just like tangerine fruits like orange, lemon, etc, this type of girls’ have fair skin color and layered inner personality [Not possible to fathom the inner heart details in single meeting!].

People can identify that they are dealing with a tangerine girl only when the latter starts talking to them. The words, expressions, touchy statements, quirky phrases [now & then], mono syllables representing different moods [for saying YES/NO], single words to wrap-up the lengthy conversations, etc, are part of tangerine girl communication strategies.

Tangerine girls are all goal-oriented. Irrespective of whatever they do, they set goals; they strive, struggle, and endeavor to reach them, no matter, whatever they have to sacrifice for that! For them, life is all about setting and reaching goals. Limited excitement in life is OK; but people looking for 24/7 excitement in life are SWORN ENEMIES for tangerine batch. Getting depressed in life is acceptable and they have a policy that no one should disturb them when they are depressed. Continuous thinking and analysis are part of their lives; it can be a personal, local, domestic, or global topic.

One can say that tangerine batch exhibits good listening skills. They listen to what the other person tells them; hours and hours. But, they won’t utter a single word during the entire conversation. That’s what differentiates them from other sugar and spicy girls. They know a lot about the topic in hand but won’t exhibit their hard-earned knowledge to the opposite party just like that. They have the talent of asking questions like an innocent and gathering detail from the other person like a black hole.  

Tangerines like traditional stuff. Predictability is part of their ‘doing way of things’. They rarely believe in qualities like imagination, assumptions, guess work, etc. ‘Seeing in believing’ for tangerine people. Unless they see a demo, they don’t believe in other party’s words.

In summary, tangerines believe in following routine but interesting life with occasional excitement. They focus on conserving what they have [be it words, energy, money, etc] to a great extent in their life. They don’t live life as if every day is their last day.

In one line, they are like ‘saints’ who are under the influence of steroids. 

Beauty vs. Intelligence

Confidence brings assertiveness in people. But, what brings confidence? So many things like beauty, intelligence, money power, etc, which helps you to standout in society. Beauty with intelligence is a rare combination; very few people possess it. However, most of the times, intelligent people display confidence on their ‘not so beautiful/handsome’ faces based on the solid idea that they got on their mind. They up their ante against their peers, society, etc, make their idea standout stylistically among competitors, and finally, they win the race and get that prized sweet spot with their impressive strategic value-oriented designs against their resilient contenders.

Ideas rule this world. If there is a competition between beauty and intelligence, the latter beats the former by so many rounds when it comes to surviving in this competitive world filled with commanding and demanding people. Beauty with brains is what everyone wants to have but normally in real life, brains without beauty is what nature supports in most of the circumstances. If politicians in this world display assertive behavior than anyone else and still command respect from everyone, models (without beauty) who walk on ramps day in & out and command people’s attention like anything, and feature-laden intelligent cars with their commanding road presence roam around cities providing tasteful rides to citizens are part of our everyday lives, then we can safely believe that intelligence is in the most demanding position than beauty in this world.

Career - Talent - Creativity

Nowadays, people are treating their professional careers with utmost care.  There is a reason for this. The way organizations are focusing on their employee skill set has been changing. Irrespective of the experience that every employee is bringing to the table, managements are focusing on their respective employee’s craftsmanship to identify how talented they are. 

Talent can be built on exposure and experience. Maybe that is the reason why organizations are dividing the employees into small groups; as ‘focus groups’. These groups focus on a particular aspect of their respective craftsmanship and try to develop that through their common sense, innovativeness, and research. Organizations, which are having this kind of focus groups, send tell-tale indicator signals to the market that they are different from the rest of their tribe. 

Market needs creativity. It always keeps track of innovators, significant contributors, out-of-the-box thinkers, etc. It exposes counterfeits/open & shut cases and mercilessly throws career-wrecking balls at those people, who create such kind of products. A genuine society-useful invention never faces stumbling block to enter the market. Career-oriented people always chip in their best for the betterment of their career and the organizations that they work for. They go over again and again through different study materials, etc, to identify new patterns and trends in their respective fields to come up with path-breaking products.

Bangles & Indian Culture

Wearing spangled colorful bangles by females are part of Indian custom and tradition. Single or married, from village girls to city brides, most of the ladies wear them in India. Buying bangles is a great time pass for Indian ladies; they spend hours haggling about the price of the bangles. Besides, there are poets, who have written so many jingles referring to the jangling sounds of bangles from romantic angle.

Bangles are made with different materials like plastic, glass, etc, and they come in different types; toggled ones, dangling ones, etc. Nowadays, they became part of a fashion statement. One can see different international models wearing bangles that go with their modern dresses as part of their trendy fashion. Every Indian woman wears them at some stage of her life and as per Hindu customs, it is a ‘must wearable’ thing for women.

Besides, bangles are used by other businesses in an innovative way. Textile brands are selling readymade dresses sticked with mangled and bungled bangle pieces to add that glittering effect. Toy makers use colored glass bangles for making different toys. For example, to show snake fangles they use broken bangle pieces.

In summary, with their different color combinations, glittering effects, and tinkling sounds, bangles are part of Indian culture. 

Hey! Independent India! What is Our Destiny?

Hey! My Indian Forefathers…

If sacrifice is what India needed for its independence, we gave

If turmoil is what British wanted to create that time, we stopped

If understanding each other is what our people felt to do struggle, we did

If empathy is what other slave nations expected from us for their struggle, we supported

In other words, we did not leave any stone unturned to get our independence!

Hey! My Indian Brothers…

Knowing corruption is what ruining Indian growth, we are not stopping it

Knowing nepotism is what stopping India in its tracks, we are not condemning it

Knowing favoritism is making Indian development topsy-turvy, we are not even bothering

Knowing security for females has become a daily Indian issue, we are looking other side

In other words, we are not helping independent fellow citizens to stay happily!

Hey! My Indian Leaders…

Where is that world class leadership that you displayed during our independence struggle?

Where is that passionate hard talk that has shaken our enemies to the core?

Where is that iron-willed resolve to make India a superpower?

Where is that patriotic fervor to guide India to achieve the ‘peak of excellence’ in all the fields?

In other words, you forgot those independence sacrifices and left India like a boat without an oar!

Hey! Bharat Ma! Please help us to stay on track, secure our future, and find our destiny!

World Class from India

Who has the dare to disturb the universe? The answer is GOD. However, apart from God, ‘humans with brains’ also have the capability up to a certain extent to disturb the universe through their cutting-edge innovations. Earlier, we humans used to follow certain proven rules and strategies to lead our lives. Nowadays, it has become a habit to disrupt everything that we used to do; from technologies to processes, we want to change everything.

There was a time, where people employ pigeons to carry messages. After paper has been invented, postal system came into picture. It was there for a long time and no one has dreamt of any other system that is capable of replacing it. But then came, e-mail riding on top of Internet. Whole postal department look, feel, and process have been changed for the better; like never before. Communication picked up at rapid pace and people started consuming more information within a short span of time. Then came social networking sites like Facebook, Buzz, etc, and applications like What’s up, Hike, etc, which allows people to continuously keep in touch with each other. Instant fame is the hot topic nowadays and sharing even small achievements have become part of our lives.

Nowadays, we hear hitherto unknown phrases like ‘killer websites’, ‘attract eyeballs’, ‘game-changing environments’, etc. In this world, now things started changing at a rapid pace. The biggest innovation challenges are becoming the ground zeros for disruptive innovations. And, one of the ‘innovation ground zeros’ on this planet, whose profile rocks, is in India - a spiritual oriented country.

‘MADE IN INDIA’ is a significant brand at a global scale. Although, sporadic life threatening security issues are there, when it comes to India, it acts as a hub for manufacturing various products. The products of India are built with world class quality stuff and are shipped to different destinations across the globe under the following brand name: World Class from India. 

Loneliness & Marriage

When you grow old, who will look after you? This question bugs every middle-aged human mind on this planet. Your energy levels would be down and financially, you would be dependent on your meager savings, if any, by that time. If there is any protection network provided by government for aged people, you have to go there unless you have people to look after you.

None of these questions have a satisfactory response at your end. If you are single and you pass out anywhere, for example, on a road in intense summer, there won’t be anyone to take you to hospital at least!

When you were young, you backed so many people. Even when they had blown something up also, you did your best to protect them, Now, where are those people? Ask around! As age passes by, your energy levels are going to dwindle down; they won’t grow back.

When you were youth, you handled, managed, and played with so many people from opposite gender. You asked them out and enjoyed with them as long as you had wished and finally dumped them for some other. But now, no one is there in your life. The exuberant youth gone out of your fabulous body long ago and now, diseases have brought down your body.

At this stage, you need support and it is not there! When you pass away, you don’t even know how the society handles with your soulless body. All your mistakes that had done in your previous stages of your life are reeling in front of your eyes but you cannot change them.

In summary, time changes you. It takes you from cradle to grave. You cannot stop it. You cannot even fight against it. It is invincible and invisible. Intelligent people understand this and go for partnerships; hoping that these partnerships would save them in their old age. The name they have given to this partnership is called MARRIAGE. This is an effort by human beings to handle their lives in a better manner. Most of the marriages have survived the onslaught of hardships thrown by time now and then in to its path. It is the only one solution to relieve you from your loneliness and provide you a support in your old age. 

Think about it!

Marketing – The Powerful Glue

Marketing is the magic wand that companies use to relate their products with their customers. With inspirational, motivational, and empowering messages, they try to build a magnificent halo around their products, make them look powerful (solves all the customer problems and gives peace of mind to customers) and presentable (aesthetic effects). They record, merge, and spread their customer stories (filled with success and greatness) around the world to inspire their prospects and generate more leads. 

  

Frictionless customer experience is the name of the marketing game, nowadays. Make customer feel like king. Provide everything you can to make him feel great and let the customer feel the power and define his own moment of greatness by using the company’s products. The idea is to make the customer feel and look like a GLADIATOR though he is a WEEKEND WARRIOR.

In summary, great companies are building great products. However, until customer experiences the product, he does not know whether the product is great. There is some sort of inertia in which the customer is stuck in which does not allow him to try the new product. Here, the marketing thing comes into picture. Carefully built messages are placed strategically in front of customer, who is looking to fix a particular need of his own. Once the customer warms up to the message (an eclectic mix of inspiration, motivation, satisfaction, etc), he contacts the company and becomes a lead for them, unknowingly. Now, sales people step in to turn the ‘lead’ in to a ‘prospect’.

Although all teams (product design, building, sales, etc) share the credit, the exclusive credit for bringing the customer in to contact with the company’s product goes to marketing team in a company.

Goals & Stress

What is the most important point for any person in his life? Happy life or Peaceful life or Exciting life or something else! One can give neither a tongue-in-cheek answer nor tell a bold lie for this question. In other words, knowingly or unknowingly, everyone keeps a goal in life and he gives utmost priority to achieve it. Whatever is the goal of his life, he works hard for it. Everyone have their intents and purposes to keep different goals in life.

The case in point here is to assess what is ‘it’ that is keeping people busy throughout their life?

Most of the people don’t think about what they want in life; just like that they live. Others, who realize that they have a goal in life, strive for it and achieving it becomes their life’s objective.

A few people ‘home in’ what they keep as goal in their life; others may or may not even get to it throughout their life. The intention and inspiration of chasing the goal may get nipped in the bud due to the stress it causes on one’s body; both physically and mentally. When it comes to creating stress, all goals are one and the same. Stress wrecks havoc on one’s body and mind and to wreak this havoc, the only solution is to escape from it by not doing the thing that is causing it.

Does it mean we need to stop chasing goals of our lives? No. You should know how to deal with stress and a few easy techniques to achieve what you want in life. Cool! That solves the problem!

Happiness

People always try to find ways to make and keep them happy. If real-time situations are not happening as per their expectations, then they create a make believe world and try to spend time there. This means, for the sake of happiness, in pursuit of happiness, and to enjoy the experience of happiness, people do everything.

Happiness connects people. Most of the times, across the world, we see happy people groups; not sorrow groups. Loving happiness is ingrained in our genes. We think in different ways to keep our loved ones happy. Besides, business savvy people, who understood about happiness long time ago, started minting money by catering happiness through entertainment channels, comedy movies, etc. The quality of happiness never goes out of style. Even rebels love that feeling, but in their case, their main focus is only to keep themselves happy; ‘I am what I am’ concept.  

Indifference is the only point that brings down happiness levels down; otherwise, happiness gives us a feeling that we are in safe hands of God! Play on!

Man’s Ignorance VS. Nature’s Fury

Who does not love nature? Its breathtaking beauty is every poet’s muse and every lover’s inspiration! Tired of dwelling in cool nature’s lap, man wanted to try something new. He started exploring the unique opportunities that he can lay his hands on and through streamlined discovery and iron will, he continually pushed himself and other beings to the edge of life’s space in the name of progress. When pollution started to creeping in, he didn’t realize the negative effects of it but started to find signals through its hissing noise. His curiosity to explore the strange and magical threads of nature’s bounties (minerals, ores, etc) made him to dig for them more. As a result, planet Earth is left with digged holes and empty desert like spaces.

Everyone knows about nature’s fury. When nature realized what man, the sole intelligent product of plant Earth, has been doing and how he is pushing life to the edge of space, it decided to teach man a lesson in its own way. It created and sent TSUNAMI; man now dreads of this word like never before. One tsunami is enough to push him back to the Stone Age. Repeated attacks like this could push man to the primitive stage. However, man is yet to understand the depth of Nature’s fury. He is still trying to be in his own dreams of destruction.

Stay informed; because Nature won’t leave man this time if he makes another grave mistake! Amen!
