The Eternal Dream!

Make me meet a person whose dreams are all met and I will prove how naive and under he really is. This is all because of the famous saying that means, "You dream, till you are Dead". Without ever knowing the consequences, we follow our dreams both at a material level (where we dream with an open eye- our vision for life) and at the subconscious level (in our slumber dreams). How our subconscious drives our life is a topic for another day. So, let me pen my thoughts on the Dreams that we see with our eyes wide open and mindfully committed to realizing what we deem worthy of fulfillment. Now, before I even start, I need to clarify that I have also read as many rags-to-riches stories all my life, and the inspiration to shape my own life (in a materialistic way) has definitely been influenced by what I grew up seeing and that led-up to my aspirations. I have had many a dream and every dream of mine, that I was able to realise took me en route to a course correction that eventuall

The curse of having a Gigantic Dream

Rage is basically an appropriate outburst of a  consciously  bearing mind.  The agony of Life and the daily difficult series of trials  Whenever my conscious self coils back into my past-formative years till now and witnesses the misgivings; which I didn't articulate at those times; when I used to be in utter fury and against the said, were not because of personal qualm but mostly because of my society's inability to be foresighted enough to look at the big picture and empathetic enough to share my dream.   The dream of an average person survives only in the rarest possible case.  Those with heaps of divine favour can only make it and realize their wish lists.  Lucky are those who succeed because the flip side to this is complete oblivion, or even worse; a complete disgust, most of the time wrapped under the veil of sympathy and remorse, from all the people around that were believed to be near and dear ones!   Such is a society that we live in, or at least,

The Epidemic called Sadness

This post is a lift from Live Laugh Love In today’s society, we have an epidemic fear of sadness . When we’re feeling down, we’re told to “Just be happy”. We’re told to “ Stop frowning and start smiling ”. And we’re told to “Think of all there is to be happy about and stop being sad.” Although the idea of happiness is wonderful, assuming that someone in pain can just turn off how they feel, is incredibly invalidating and ultimately sends us the message that we are wrong or bad for feeling what we are feeling. I’m here to tell you that you are completely, totally, and unconditionally allowed to feel whatever it is that you feel. Feeling sad doesn’t make you weak or inadequate—it makes you human. Sadness is a normal and necessary part of existence . Without it, we wouldn’t be able to cherish and truly appreciate the times we’re feeling good. Happiness is great, but it’s unrealistic to think you can experience it all the time. Know that if you feel something

Premium Gods You have really become a tough-reach! Is it our sins or insecurities.. or something entirely different that I’m not yet aware of at my present level of Emotional Maturity? ... ...These thoughts have started penetrating my soul since day before yesterday when I stood for around 6-7 hours in the queue for Tirumala-Tirupati Lord Balaji' s Darshan.  Before my intent & message in this post becomes contextually incorrect, let me clarify that I was not at all affected by the wait-time. Because, I’m such an astute believer of Transcendental Powers, and I believe God exist. And these temples are really places where you go seeking their blessings. This needs a lot of efforts both physically & emotionally. And I'm really always ready to endure because the endurance is what magnifies the overall transcendental experiences. So, coming back to the wait-time let me first explain the title of my Post first..! I’d like to Define Premium God a

Soul-Curry: a story!

Soul-Curry: a story! Once upon a time there was this Girl who had four Lovers. She loved the 4th Lover the most and adorned him with rich robes and treated him to the finest of delicacies. She gave him nothing but the very best. She also loved the 3rd Lover very much and was always showing him off to neighboring... kingdoms. However, she feared that one day he would leave her for another. She also loved her 2nd Lover. He was her confidant and was always kind, considerate and patient with her. Whenever this girl faced a problem, she could confide in him, and he would help her get through the difficult times. The girl's 1st Lover was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining her wealth and kingdom. However, she did not love the first Lover. Although he loved her deeply, she hardly took notice of him! One day, the girl fell ill and she knew her time was short. She thought of her luxurious life and wondered, I now have four Lovers

Diary of an Introvert

Diary of an Introvert a few common misconceptions about Introverts: Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk. This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days. Myth #2 – Introverts are shy. Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don’t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don’t worry about being polite. Myth #3 – Introverts are rude. Introverts often don’t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting. Myth #4 –

Clayton Christensen's Acceptance Speech  Clayton Christensen's Acceptance Speech At the beginning of our career; our LIFE, do we have a strategy to be sore and recluse in the long term..? Then why is this that most of us land that way..! Why a stunning number of people execute a strategy that they never want to pursue in the first place. Why do we go through a broken marriage; alienated children, unhappy parents, friends; genuine friends, now totally forgotten, etc.. the list goes on! How many of us have a clear-cut Deliberate Strategy and an Emergent Srtategy and in what sphere of our life (Personal vs Professional)? referred to Henry Mintzberg 's work. Awesome video! Must watch!!
