Pot Luck in Office

My team decided to have a pot luck in the office back some time ago for a change from routine. Pot luck was the new term for me. Didn't know what does it mean. Had no option but to ask my team only what does it mean? Team members explained to me it is to bring 1 pre-decided dish from home to office for lunch on the decided day. At first, the dishes were decided. The conversation ended with the final dishes being roti, Any vegetable dish, rajma, chana, sweet dish, Biryani. Well, then it's time to decide who brings what. The process was decided to have a lottery system by preparing chits for each dish and each person picking one chit. Everyone agreed readily. Soon after everyone saw own chit, the complaints start about expectation and reality of the assigned dishes! Nobody were comfortable to be assigned the dishes they never prepared before or hard to bring in the next morning. So starts the negotiation round with other team members for the favorable dish which was familiar ...

Century of Centuries!

Sachin Tendulkar, treated like God by his fans, ended the long and tiring wait for his 100th international ton today at Dhaka's Shere Bangla National Stadium. I just realized, I had not shared any article here for almost a year now, now I can see why it just didn't happened. Now I can say it(the post) was waiting for this century ;), naturally.... Achcha hua jo Sachin ne 100th century maar di varna do baatein ho jati: ya to main kuch likhta, ya to nahi likhta. Nahi likhta to thik tha, par likhta to do baatein ho jati, ya to achcha likhta ya to nahi likhta, achcha likhta to thik tha, lekin achcha nahi likhta to do baatein ho jati, ya to aapko achcha lagta, ya to nahi lagta. Achcha kaha se lagta, aur bura lagta do baatein ho jati, ya to aap meri taarif karte, ya to burai karte. Taarif kaha se karte, aur burai karte to... To aap hi soch lo... Sachin ne aapko pitne se bacha liya. Chalo, Thank you bolo Sachin ko...! :) :) (all photos from google imag...

Keep Moving Forward

Image
KMF principle says - "Life indeed would be dull if there were no such difficulties." Problems are the source of inspiration. They force you to innovate. But the fun only begins if you know how to fight the problems, else it just makes a mess out of the life and only leaves you more frustrated! And no problem is big enough keep holding you back, you have to 'Keep Moving Forward', even at the hardest of your times. Its only by Moving Forward that the situations can be improved. The best way to do that would be to respond, and not to react. However, it's always easier said than done. But their are few things that you can always keep in your mind to get the courage to keep moving forward and rise above the situations rather than just get stuck into it and stay down their forever. To move forward first of all learn to forget your mistakes and do not forget to learn from your mistakes. To look back at a circumstance and figure out what went wrong allows you to evaluat...

Last book read of 2010 - 'Who will cry, When you Die?'

Image
'You know you've read the good book, when you turn the last page and feel as if you've lost a friend.' I have just completed reading the wisdom book that I had bought three months back, and on the event of the begining of this new year, I would like to share with you the last paragraph of the book which I am sure can be cherished for the whole coming year. I am not a poet or a have a great expressive power of my thoughts, so I do take help of the great and beautiful wordings by others to reflect the thoughts which I think influence others to a greater extent rather than if I express the same thing in my own simple and day to day wordings. So I am used to read these inspiring Wisdom books to come across such phrases and teachings of life that can be used as a means to be more effective in writing the expressions. Without taking more space of this article, I will start below the quoted Part of this article from that book... And yes, before starting the quotes, the infor...

A story from Tension to Tension...

Image
Sharing here one of my favourite Forwarded mail before I add my last article of the year 2010 in my blog space! Simple technique on 'How to beat the stress in life'.... The moment you are in TENSION You will lose your ATTENTION Then you are in total CONFUSION And you'll feel IRRITATION This may spoil your personal RELATIONS Ultimately, you won't get COOPERATION And get things into COMPLICATION Then you may raise CAUTION And you have to take MEDICATION Why not try understanding the SITUATION And try to think about the SOLUTION Many problems will be solved by DISCUSSION Which will work out better in your PROFESSION Don't think this is a free SUGGESTION It is only for your PREVENTION If you understand my INTENTION You'll never come again into TENSION

Duniya ka Naara - "Lage Raho"........

I am in the middle of the two weekends and I hope the next weekend will not be the same as the last weekend beacause when the time is wrong everything seems to be going wrong.... It was nearly after almost six months that I planned to go home for a Vastu Pooja of my own home!. And it was well known in the office about my leaves as well! But then first thing wrong happened was that I didn't get the direct train ticket to Indore, so I had to book the ticket to Bhopal which ensured I will reach home at 12 midnight instead of 12 noon with 12 hours of delay! And then there was this deadline at the work which made sure I had to stay late in the office while I had to get up early to catch the train on the next day. And all this mess also included few incidences of sending the status report to the wrong email IDs. So finally after all this hassles I put up an alarm of 6:00 AM so at atleast I don't have to miss my train for the peace of mind. But it had already been 8:30 AM by the time...
