The Science of Purpose

The Science of Purpose When actually I feel motivated to go to work? When I have a client requirement meeting. I have the homework to do to ask the right questions and offer solutions.  I have a toastmaster's speech to deliver. I am the showman.  It gives me a kick, to do it better than anyone else.  If I don't believe in something adding value I cannot feel motivated about it. And it it surprising how people around the world are doing highly technical things for free, all for that magical word called word called 'Purpose'.

Motivation is like bathing..gotta do it everyday!

Introvert's Diary

It's not because I don't care, that I keep quiet It's because I am not confident that my words..  would be interesting to anyone It's not that I don't wanna meetup I am not sure I can make your day any better  I didn't console you for your loss I was too scared to face you.. Its years of self doubt that has yielded this cocoon Let me be me.. I feel safe here..

The Murder of Roger Acroyed

Call me a fool but i didn't know that its a simplified and truncated version of the classic!!It was a Times of India's report ( http://articles.timesofindia.indiatim... ) that inspired me to read Agatha Christie , which was on my to-read list ever since i started reading fiction.Searched Flipkart and ordered the best buy. To my surprise the book was just 120 pages and only after reading the foreword did i realize it was not the original. But nonetheless its a gripping tale which glued me to the book . I could guess the murderer and was confirming my while gulping down the pages. Though this book covers the story and preserves the narrative it left me with the desire to read the original...

Hyderabadi..

"It was like any other ride around the lake. I was heading  home from the Library, after returning my books half read. It has been raining since Saturday morning and the lake was brimming. The other end lined by endless stretch of buildings had a grey backdrop of dark clouds pregnant with rains." I found the above note in my One Note Notebook, thanks to Microsoft, I love this thing. The note reminded me of my autorides on the necklace road, one Sunday every two months after I had used all my passes of reissuing the books over phone. I seldom finished any but still diligently performed the charade of issuing 3 books and 2 mags every two months in my year long subscription with British Library. I have the concentration span of a two year old. I miss the Auto fare, being in bangalore travelling 5 km in 45 bucks now seems like a dream. Hyderabad can give you an extra mile for the same money. It also reminded me of how independent I used to feel and what the year 2011...

Ye Khaali Kaagaj

Ye khaali kaagaj, Jab muh baaye mujhe ghoorta hai Mujhe koi na koi bahana karna padhta hai Aaj mood nahi hai, Kuch aachaa soojh nahi raha Do panktiyan likh ke hoga bhi kya Kaun padhta hai aakhir mera likha..

Saanjh

Saanjh   ka vo pahar Jab ekaant mann odh leta hai Udaasi ki odhani Aur taras khaata hai khud par Apne wajood par Chadhaata hai do phool Adhoori khwahishon ki majaar par Mera haath thaam lo Mujhe darr lagta hai Iss shaam ke dhundhlake se...

Kahne mein kya jaata hai

That moment when one of the prospective grooms you talked to while finalising on 'The One' gets engaged and sends you an invitation. You are curious to know how the 'bride to be' looks and it gives you immense relief to ascertain that you are better looking than her. :) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Writing is a very unique art. It lets your mind wander but in the right direction. It places you in oblivion but yet dawns upon you certain revelations. It locks you from the world but only to make you discover newer ones. Writing puts me at a different level of perception altogether. Its not about seeing your words in print but its about echoing your thoughts to the world. You can actually make a difference with your words! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The lack of confidence is taking a toll on life, its just that I am realizing it now. Never was competing with people about wo...
