Eyes With Fire Will See Light Everywhere

As I was falling from the plane from 13300 ft with a speed of 200Km/hr, I felt very much relieved as I completed my bucket list that was created five years back.I became free from it. I was so attached to the bucket list that there was a background process running all the time in my mind to complete the bucket list. Freedom is unexplainable experience. I did not know how to express it and I felt like running running running and running. The moment I landed on the ground, I got an impression that half of my life was over. In the movie language, the first half was over and the interval time had arrived. Bazinga!!! Looking back, life was mostly passive till third year of my engineering education. Life spurted during the final year. Then it started to scrawl then to walk then to sprint then to run. Past 6 to 7 years, life was at a very good rush: Ignorance recognized, ego brought down, confidence unveiled, courage uncovered, love craved, character built, innocence protected, youthful vi...

After spending and traveling in different countries and various cities, staying in some of the best hotels, living in different apartments,houses and homes, I realized one of the best times I spent was the time I spent in the bathrooms. In the bathrooms, I do not need to pretend, feel shy and carry worries.Bathroom is the place that provides me the space to sing, dance , become lazy and finally become me. I do not have to carry the guard with me inside it. There is a significant difference between taking shower and taking bath. Taking bath is altogether is a different experience. It not only cleanses the body but also the mind. PS: Have u ever taken a leisure bath in a tub? If no try it once, before that google how to take a bath.

I always intrigued by the way people communicate. Initially I thought communication can only happen through words. If I have to say even more specifically, I was brought up based on the assumption that communication means talking in english. I lived with that assumption for almost 22 years. I never studied arts. I am was an engineer. I  was taught and I always thought analytically. I vividly remember the day, when I saw two people commuting in the city bus conversing through the hands. I understood nothing but I saw magic in their hands. Their eyes were sharp and focused. I think that was my first conscious observation of human body language. I had a emotionless face. While I was training for the campus placements during my under graduation days, the trainer said to me "you are talking as if you are talking to a stone" (these were the exact words she said). I was stunned. I didn't know how to put emotion into what I said. I never experienced any emotions at that time a...

After my interview for Peer Career Advisor position at my B-school, I was just chatting with the interviewer casually and asked him why americans celebrate special "thanksgiving" day when they should be thankful each and every day. The interviewer said that "that is true, however if they forgot to do so they will make it on the thanksgiving day." This triggered a thought in me; Why should I take this opportunity to say thanks to all my friends as I never mentioned them tangibly. The only concern was, I came from a culture where saying thanks to friends and family is considered over action and it does not mean anything to them So, to avoid that I decided to write genuine thanks notes to each and everybody, sharing what they really mean to me. No exaggeration at all. Real,genuine and straight from my heart content for all. After reading my e-thanks notes, some responded with just thanks, some wrote another thanks notes ,some wrote even lengthier thanks notes than...

Dance forms in south america especially cuba, is a way of life. People walk and talk through dance. One can express so much in dance which cannot be put in words. I really like to dance with people who explains what each step means rather than just say 1-2-3-4. So, I happened to cross this group who were practicing Lezginka dance and over heard the choreographer explaining the essence of the dance. This was the first time I heard someone teaching dance by explaining its essence and concept. I stopped. I watched and then asked them whether I could join; they said more than welcome. Cut cheste, I performed Lezginka dance form last saturday. My second dance performance since joining the MBA college. So what is Lezginka? What it's meaning ? What were we doing ? Lezginka :(dictionary definition) :  a courtship dance of the Caucasus mountains in which the woman moves with graceful ease while the man dances wildly about her. Check out the performance of my team: The men were...

Firing people is a common practice in american culture. It just comes so naturally to americans. This is a way of  eradicating bottleneck, conflict or problem. When ever there is a discussion in the MBA class or a casual  chit chatting with the american students, firing is one of the first answers I hear when it comes to people related problems. Every time I hear firing from my fellow class mates, I wonder do they know what that means. Firing people is the most toughest thing.Many companies will outsource it to third parties. The firing manager must have a strong mind set. The after effect of firing people is so exhausting and disturbing.The top management do not look firing as people thing,they look it in terms of money for the obvious reasons. Firing people gets manipulates into break ups in terms of personal relationships. Eventually you are doing the same thing,sending people out from your life. Break-ups can be with anybody.Either professionally or personally sending...

There was a phase in my life where I was restless, impatience, angry,lazy,inconsiderate, showing lack of commitment/engagement, conflict, unappreciative and fake. You can check the glimpse of that phase here . But two years from then i.e., today I more subtle,funny, real,appreciative and accommodating. What caused the changed in me ?  The answer goes in the lines of the "RoCkStAr" movie. As in the movie, I was looking something that will tear me apart so that the real me comes out of the concealment. The movie showed me, what happens when you put strong emotion into life. A similar suggestion was given by my friend Manoj. I unconsciously started putting emotions into the some part of my life. As time went by, those emotions become stronger and stronger and spread across relationships and goals. There is no unfortunate or fortunate with stronger emotions.One will be on cloud 9 if emotions turns into positive energies otherwise one will hit the bottom.Worst part is one can...
