Mis-take!!

We all know that before taking any action we should think the outcome of that or we should atleast think why r we doing it...isn't it?? this is what we hav learnt...
But sometimes situations come across us when we have no option or no time or because of ny other reason we need to take decision without going through the pre-requisite process called "thinking".....this happens many times and we have to face the consequences of it if any...
But the moment we realize that now we can't change the decision or the step we have taken from that very moment we start preparing ourselves to face the challenges that step can bring to us or we start trying to defend that very mistake we have commited...I m sure this happens with everyone (m not abnormal i think) :)
Now I like to bring the attention of u all at the point that while trying hard to defend that mistake or to prevent ourselves from the bad consequences sometimes we come out to be with very different personality or I can say this sometimes find out a new personality hidden inside u and this is sometimes very helpful...and shows u a new direction of the life...
Before proceeding further I would like to mention here that such cases are very frequent with me i.e I take decision spontaneously and have a weakness that once I decide I can't change my decision even I know that something, something wrong is with this thing...this has made me going through a lot of cases where I learn a lot of things just to defend that mistake or that step...
A very recent one I would like to mention here is that while fillin the hobbies part in Detailed Application Form of IES I was not sure what to write as the thing I m passionate about cannot be expressed in wrds in any form :P
So I mentioned a thing which I never saw even others practicing and that is "Yoga"
Now,while writing this on the form I was knowing that something is wrong with it but I couldn't stop myself from doin this and I posted that duly filled and signed Form...:(
Now,I have got a few days for interview and the only thing I could do to defend myself in the interview is to learn Yoga atleast theoretically coz I'll be wearing "Trousers" at that time and this will protect me from performing the live show there in the UPSC premises (lucky :))
But after I bought a book called "YOGA" and tried to learn these things this showed me the greatness of all this stuff...Now whenevr I get time I instead of learning theoretically only I also try to practice them and really this helps a lot...

I don't know why m I sharing this with u all here but one thing I want to tell u all that -"Make decisions which suits the moment, don't waste time in thinking process...u will surely learn a new lesson...and learning is the motto of life,learning never stops...stop being dependent on others and stop flowing with the wind make ur decisions and make them work for u...this is a time to do what u like and time never comes back..so utilize it to make u happy"...

A mis-take is a mistake only if u cant defend it but if u can then it is an opportunity for you to learn something...

Life: not a mystery...

As the sun never sets
it is the earth that rotates,
Life never ends,it is
the body that relocates.

As the old day pass
a new day comes,
Soul leaves one old body
for a new body to come

No one remembers a day
which is gone
unless it has something
something to ponder upon
The same is the case
with the role here we play
and what we need to do is
is to make it great..

Life is not a predefined role
neither it is a mystery
which we are here to unfold..
It is a character
it is a character 'untold'
We are its director and only we r mentor
and the reason for us being here
is to make it great, to make it immortal.

Wanna be a Winner??

Here's a simple question to get you started.There are three monkeyssitting on a tree,above a pond.One of the monkeys decides to jump into the pond.How many monkeys are left on the tree?Two?Think again..

A lot of you might have got the correct answer i.e. three and you know the reason also.The monkeyonly made the decision to jump into the pond.He didn'e actually jump!If you think about it we are all like that.We take decisions.We make resolutions.But somehow,we don't follow through with action.Annd intent without action is quite useless,really.Gettin started-taking the first step-is often the master key to success.As someone once said,you don't have to be great to get started,but you sure have to get started to become great!

Bestselling management author Tom Peters tells the story of a man who approached JP Morgan with an enevelope,and said,"Sir,in my hand I hold a guaranteed formula for success,which I will gladly sell you for $25,000."
"Sir",JP Morgan replied,"I don't know what is in the envelope.However,if you show me,and I like it,I give you my words as a gentleman that I will pay you what you ask".The man agreed to terms,and handed over the envelope.JP Morgan opened it,and pulled out a single sheet of paper.He gave it one look-a mere glance-then handed it back to the gentleman.And paid him the agreed upon sum of $25,000!
What was on the sheet of paper??
There were two things on paper:
1-Every morning,write down a list of the things that need to be done that day.
2-Do them.
JP Morgan benefited from this advice,and we can too.Knowing what to do is often easy(yes,it is easy but we often make it difficult-when confused listen to your heart and do whatever u want to do,this will improve efficiency).We all have our list of things to do.Our plans and our resolutions.Doing it-that's tha tough bit.But that's the hallmark of successful people.
The "Nike" guys are right.-
"Want to be a winner?Just do it"

Wish my words could....

With courage to meet the Sun's eye
embracing the whole mankind
residing in the skies of infinity
I wish my words could rain as clouds

Liberal thoughts with wings of imagination
set for boundless expeditions
intending to discover where earth meets the sky
I wish my words could fly as birds

In search of heaven,continuing to flow
I reach places but none to call home
finding solace touching the leaves
I wish my words could feel as breeze

Sunshine makes the fresh snow wears
seeing the agony,mountain shed tears
taking everything on its way so fre
I wish my words could reach its sea

Soaking love from every possible source
making bonds throughout my course
holding the beliefs and hiding the dart
I wish my words could beat as heart

With the persistence of bearing pain from spines
forgetting my tears for other's pleasure
to bring rapturous smiles on the unknown faces
I wish my words could smell as roses

Let's change the cycle of birth and death
numb the body with a soul taking breaths
And,the moment I rest in Eternal
I wish my words could become immortal



mess-enger:
