A Smile!

Smile in joy
Smile in pain
Smile when sorrow pours like rain
Smile when someone hurts your feeling
Smile when the heart is heaving and reeling
Smile even when you are worried much
For a smile always gives a healing touch

People won't remember what you said, they won't remember what you did, they will always remember how you made them feel...

A man who does not know how to appreciate what's good in people does not deserve to be any one's boss. Period.

Hold your chin high and smile like you always do
If anyone can make it, if anyone can change it, if it all rests on anyone, it's YOU

The man who can smile when his world breaks apart
Nothing on this world can break him apart

A smile says 'i like you, you are important to me.' No, not a fake plastic smile in front of the camera or to please your prospective arrange marriage spouse. Rather a smile that comes straight from the heart and warms the being of the person who receives it...

We are all yearning for a feeling of importance, to know that we matter in this wide wide world. Give it to the next person you meet. He will love you and remember your words long after you are gone and forgotten.

A smile makes you attractive. A smile enlivens those who receive it. It is the most important element of your wardrobe. A million dollar outfit is a waste without a smile and yes, it's free of cost.

We generally get what we look for. Look for reasons to smile. Even if you are broke like I am right now, you will find many. For example, you are alive and educated to read this :P

I shall always expect to meet you with a smile. If you find me smiling not, nudge me, slap me, remind me of this note :)

Posters in my room






I love these posters. I picked them from an old lady in CP.

I searched over 50 to choose 5.

Commitment to Writing!

I must commit at least 2 hours everyday to writing. If I don't commit, I will not deliver. If I don't deliver, I will never succeed as a writer. It's plain and simple.

It's not that I don't have time. I am wasting a lot of it which I can channelize to writing, perhaps the single most important activity in my life right now.

Prayers

If the world were to be left to prayers, it will be pulled immediately to a billion different corners and break down within seconds!

destiny and a unique life story!

Many of us graduated from the same business school and when I meet some of my friends and peers, it does get immensely tempting to compare my life's progress with theirs. At points like these, where I have been struggling for months to find a job despite positively believing that I am an extremely talented guy, the question becomes almost obvious, "why me?"

Now, that's what I have been thinking about since last night when I got very disturbed. I believe in destiny and unique life stories.

Our lives, no matter how closely connected we may be, are completely distinct. Everything that happens in response to our work on our goals is different, goals may be the same. That's destiny or the TAP at work. There is nothing that I can do about it.

I must accept what happens to me as a part of my life story. Reasons will never be given. They are for me to interpret. MY LIFE cannot be compared to that of Jitu or Varun or Varun or Pranay for that matter. They are of course examples to drive the point.

My life will take its own course and regardless of what happens, I will be the one driving that course.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.


Invictus


I shall fight
With all my might
till I drop dead
battling without fear
.

I am and I will be
till my last breath
a warrior.

"There is a difference between interest and commitment. When you are interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstances permit.

When you are committed to something you accept no excuses only results."

Passion!

The 3 Cs of Passion:-

Captivating
Contagious
Convincing


more convincing than logic and reason. More convincing than anything else.
