Eyes With Fire Will See Light Everywhere

My recent dating with ping pong game has taught me a good lesson. I never used to appreciated Ping pong game as I find it much difficult to hit the balls within the table space. But the more I played, the more I enjoyed it. Now every time I see a ping pong table, my hands just go for the pads. As people, we tend to have different opinions and assumptions that are mostly untested, unexperienced and never derived through proper data. For example, If someone says, I don't like playing keyboard and if we query him/her  for the reasons, they will come up with weird stuff explaining someone else opinion or a popular social belief. The most common reason is I tried it but I did not liked it. If we still probe into that reasoning,with a question, how many times you have tried?. The answer will always be around 1-2 times. As per Malcolm Galdwell, we need to practice at least 10000 hours to become expert in any given field. I agree not everyone wants to become expert but is it enough to...

The other day,I was watching a video about the history of encryption. I was hit by the idea that we have a pattern in the way we communicate. I never observed.So, all the decryption techniques are the way to find that pattern that leads to access to the secret information.

Our battles with our habits speak of dreams yet to become real.

Last year just before thanksgiving day, my ex-boss called me to inform that he could not able to hire me as a full time employee due to financial constraints he had and asked me to look for other options. No big deal right? However if we add constraints like need to find an visa sponsoring employer within 2 months, study expenditure, not willing to go back to previous boring job, no clue of where to head after graduation, the thought of kissing bankruptcy, then it would become tough. Anyhow, I listened, smiled and said Thank you. I was not afraid because I knew how to play the game. I was just skeptical whether I could make it within the time as holiday season was round the corner. Went downstairs, shared the news with the friends and then started to look for opportunities. After XXX of applications,YY of calls and Z interviews, I got a job in less than 50 days. Awesome!!! The biggest takeaway I learnt in last one year is that life pushes you into hurdles, you have to solve ...
