JOURNAL- January 12, 2020 - Miles to go before I reach

So the journey continuous towards the North India and my beautiful homeland. The night I was listening to the qawalli one line soothes my ear so much that I sung it many times it was -               ऐ नबी हाँ कभी तो सुबह आएगी             (O Prophet, a morning will come one day)                            - कौसर मुनीर ( Kausar Munir)  The beauty of the above line is how the struggle of life and the faith in divine with the optimism is depicted altogether. I also have the same optimism in my mind for my future. Well the speedy rajdhani express was taking me closer and closer to the destination. At the meantime , another guy who was working in Hon'ble Indian Air Force   was also going to change the train and want to catch the same train from an intermediate junction but yes our destination was different.  For the first time du...

JOURNAL- January 11, 2020 - Getting Ready

Finally I woke up around 7:00 at Saturday. Yes the power of routine. But then after 8:00 I slept and finally woke up 9:45. The promise was fulfilled to take enough sleep which I rarely do. Then I was somewhat productive and strong enough to fight with my procrastination. I packed most of the stuffs last night only. Just what we call as bare- minimum in software terminology. I just taking that bare - minimum stuff. Finally my roommate went for the clases wishing me the safe journey. We share each other's contacts and I started with my project work. Then before leaving city of Biryani I ordered that.  Then I had a video conversation with my family member. And I got ready take my bags and jacket locked up the room.  I booked the taxi and the driver I got was amazing because the station was so far so he shared his life struggles and happy moments and his current ambitions too. I really preferred meeting people and love conversation you went into another experience by listening to ...

JOURNAL- January 10, 2020 - Search of Beginning

Since the things are on track and the same routine life is now happening without having much fatigue now. But one thing I really realised that when things are getting at work you turn yourself inherently towards the comfort zone. And slowly the life turns boring.  It was the Friday ,correct the second weekend of the year. And a day before I was to depart to my homeland. Yes, I have the habit of roaming around from last couple of months. But this time I am going home in search of hope of the new beginning.  At the lunch time we cracked a lot of jokes and smiled a lot. We have the group of so many lovely people who held each other's spirit high especially at the lunch table. When I was leaving for the day my boss said All set , come back with the prize . Well for the first time both of our thinking matched.  When I was waiting to depart in the cab. Another boss of my friend who shares the same office with my boss . In his personality I always find the professor of my colleg...

JOURNAL- January 09, 2020 - On track

With most the requirements or better to say expectations by boss have been fulfied. I have the upper hand in the meeting. The task was completed before deadline that other teammate task were assigned to me. I explored on that task and within half an hour come up with the solution. But to whom I report was still in doubt that whether it can possible to achieve in the way I come up with. Well, for rest of the day I just give my time in increasing my knowledge. This is the one and only task I love the most. Of being a learner, and rise above yourself each day. After coming back , I invested time on progressing on other projects. Yes I always want to achieve more in less time. Although if I comment on whether I am content and happy my answer is still negative because I am still in search for that end and the after Beginning.                                                ...

JOURNAL- January 08, 2020 - Action

Well since the last project I came in a good habit of eating piece by piece than to have a whole. In food whole at once takes you to indigestion and in work it makes chores unmanageable. As from the last decade with 17 new versions of Android we are in the smartphone era. So I always like to take advantage of that by using a task management application. One the way I followed the rule of three and created two most important task I want to accomplish today. After having breakfast , the most famous egg dosa. I and my team went to Thier chairs and start working.  The deadline was given to me of tommorrow but since I kept the focus on completing the top 2 I assigned to myself. I started working on and completed successfully in the afternoon. Another task came and till the end of the office hours I did that too. One realisation that Brain Tracy always made in his self improvement books to write the tasks down really works. I realised that today. There was realese of dophamine in my brai...

JOURNAL- January 07, 2020 - Ray of Hope

Whether it is my preconceived mindset or this concept in my mind has formed gradually - I unable to work when some authorian figure keep a watch over me or some authorian figure put a lot of pressure without understanding the difficulty and exploration in particular work. Anyways , I always think I need to understand this is the work culture. Well, I was making joke with my colleagues at the lunch time that when no one is around the work went well. That was true or may be coincident because today I finally get over where I was stuck for long . So, one of the senior and experienced guy in my team said it's just because you don't feel the pressure. Since he is experienced he is correct. Then I moved to the next task where I struggled. Well this really happens when you were deployed to the project to which you were not contributing from the beginning. Understanding each nuts and bolts of it tools a lot of time.  And after the office hours ends. My mind was clouded with the lot of ...

JOURNAL- January 06, 2020 - Beginning of an End

So the corporate life starts but never in a way you wanted. Since I am a wanderer it's my destiny that always in search of the new destination whether I want it or not. But yes, this time I will stand at the side of my destiny. Not only I will surrender. I will support my destiny too. Now it's not that I am too unsatisfied or too unhappy with whatever time I am going through or whatever life I am spending. It is amazing. And I am always grateful with whatever I have. At the same time I am strong believer of   You should work in the now with the plan for the future. So you will have long term gratification instead of instant gratification. This is the beginning of the new chapter some new destination, some new and challenging but most enjoyable work and the chapter of arrival of new and better people in my life. Also at the same time it is end of the current situations of the life. Until there is no end there is no beginning. Thank you .
