Indian Kids

Today, I will going to be writing on a topic which is of great interest to me. How are Indian Kids conditioned into thinking Marriage is the single most important thing in the world.! How everything you do in life is ultimately linked to Marriage?

It starts quite early in our lives(in fact more so for girls) where we are told that we won't find anyone who will marry us if we do not behave in a certain way, study to excel(which btw means getting into the IIT's post which you go to IIM). Why go through hell attending tuitions' for Physics, Chemistry and solving those innumerable equations only to give up all that science you've learnt to do a Management course? Pressure of getting married is the answer.

Writing is a gift

As am writing each day, may it be mails or my blogs, I see the transformation.

I can see the vocab improving and the style of writing changing rapidly. But am not yet there. Not even close.

I want to write mails, letters and blogs in a profound manner. People should sit up and take notice. Well I know am covering up for years of laziness and lack of proper training in college and elsewhere but i need to fasten up the process. 

I have to move quicker, challenge myself to do the unthinkable. My problem is not words, it is more to do with framing proper sentences with those words. I get stuck. I need to go a level up whilst am writing.

Sincerely hope and pray that I write mails better and that too soon enough.

Domain Expertise

Of late, I have been feeling rather not like me. My confidence has taken a beating owing to the fact that I work with pretty smart guys whilst am not as smart. My average joe brains will always be a hindrance and my lack of decision making skills is only going to worsen the situation for me.

Regardless of all these shortcomings, I try to stay motivated almost always and trying to absorb and learn new things as each day is a learning. I know I do not possess the capability or the skills that people would sit up and take notice but am sure during the course of time I will definitely hone those skills and gain DOMAIN Expertise.

A Hobby

I have been mulling over it a long time and still am exactly where I was a few years back. I guess it's not very different for millions of Youngsters in this country and the world around. Now if you're wondering what am talking about, well it is about having a passion for something other than your job, an escape of some sort from the mundane work we do everyday.

A hobby or a passion is an absolute must for everyone. Studies have proved that having a hobby and actively pursuing it makes people 2x more productive. For youngsters it gives them something to add on to a resume, like say trained in a dance form, represented your university in a sport.

Unfortunately i was neither that gifted nor that inclined to take up a hobby and follow it religiously. I had my tryst with a lot of sports, played some seriously but never to a level which I would have wished. Now when am 24 and nearing the quarter century mark, I realize what a big mistake I made. Now i admit it's not late to take a hobby but which one should I?

At the cost of sounding pessimistic, I have to admit that I am not very creative and hence I cannot for sure be a Singer, Dancer, Painter etc. Well, at best, I write mediocre stuff and am neither very good at that. But here lies my hope. I can write about things which am passionate about, it relaxes me. I believe that over time I can polish my writing skills, though, for now it looks quite impossible considering my very average vocab and below par grammar.

I could play a sport, Table tennis maybe as I feel that is one game am good at. I strongly believe that a healthy mind rests in a healthy body and hence I need to start working out as soon as possible.

Lastly, the purpose I wanted to write this is to remind myself to keep looking out for a passion which could ass value to my resume. I badly need one.

Now that I have vented my feelings out. Let me take leave and concentrate on my core job which feeds me.

Second Innings

This must be the Nth time am saying I am back, well I hope i stick around more this time.

I was going through my previous blogs and realized how much I have changed over the years, for now I prefer no typos or short cuts like "gng", "cme" etc etc, surely I believe that is sign of maturity that has come about over the years and my work which requires me to shoot of mails every 5 mins.

I will use this blog as my daily journal and pen down my experiences which are increasingly becoming interesting by the day. The life of Sales guy  if not anything extremely unpredictable and i would like to weave a story of my experiences so i can recall them when i need.

It's a promise that am making to myself that i will be brutally honest here and use this as a platform to introspect and talk to myself.

I hope i keep this going as long as there is Google and Computers on the face of this earth.
