Consistency is a hard thing !



 When was the last time you did something for the first time and continued doing it for a long time daily to see the results? Did you leave it in between because you got bored or it became harder ... or is it your true nature to just start things and never reach to a destination. 

I have unfinished books lying around in the house, I have half completed courses lying in by learning basket and unaccepted truths lying in my heart, I have hurt people, I have done irreversible damage to my own soul, which I am ashamed of.  I don't carry a regret or guilt of not having been completed those things, but a sense of comfortable silence that lingers around my heart .. that says its okay to leave things unattended ... that haunts me the most , am I really that detached, even to myself that I see these things as a mere part of life and portray myself as unaffected by this.

I had started this blog last week only, finally utilising my purchased domain name, and I was not consistent in that too. Why can't I stick to a routine and be consistent about it. Is it really that hard ? 

I need to change myself, I can't be like this forever ! I am already almost 30.

The cave that keeps you captivated has no doors, I need to step out of my cave and start utilising the resources that I have near me in a way that I make the best use of it. 

I have books, have courses, have people around me to guide me on how to make the best use of it.

As for time in hand, I think I have ample amount of time ... 8 hours of sleep a day is enough. We already are sleeping 1/3rd of our life !

Now I realised, life is too short to study. We mustn't rush into finishing courses, rather enjoy the joy of learning and expanding our mind.

The Pilot ... Connecting the dots backwards

Image
 Hi,   I never really got the idea behind naming the first of anything as Pilot ! What are we expecting out of it ... to make the `thing` fly and touch the sky. Anyway, this is my first blog (hence named Pilot), and I really don't know what to mention about.  I am a programmer by profession and it has been almost 7 years now, programming for money.  But I often ask myself, if it hasn't been for money, would I have ever touched a computer? Do I really enjoy programming, do I really like to command a computer to do stuff for me and feel that sense of superiority in doing so ! I guess I do enjoy that sense of Power! But then another question pops-up in my popcorn container mind, that if its really all about the sense of Power over a computer ... am I really a power hungry person.. well I guess not, because in my current organisation, I am just another contributor. I don't lead a team, I don't manage people. I get paid for writing good, bug-free code and ship the re...

Happy Work Anniversary to myself.

 Happy work anniversary Lalit. Congratulations, you have successfully completed 7 years being in corporate world today. How do you feel about it ? Have you been enjoying the journey lately ? Remember the very first day of your job... ThinkAnalytics, the product team, straight out of SunBeam-CDAC Pune. Yes those were indeed tough 6 months in CDAC, but you took the hits and shone !  Today after 7 years of being an earning youth of this nation, if I look back .. do I see myself as a grown man, or just a kid with childhood fears .. but with money now.  The real question for me today is where do I want to see myself on the next anniversary. Do I want to be working in the same organisation with the same people, or in a dream company. Do I even have a solid dream for myself. Hell No! DREAM ON LALIT !!! HAVE AN ASPIRATION FOR YOURSELF.  Make your life worth living, have a purpose to chase for.  So what you are suffering from Bipolar, but that doesn't gives you an excuse...

Echoes from the distant dream

Image
Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes will stray to the horizon Though down this road we've been hundred times                                                  - Pink Floyd When you walk the long path of chasing a distant dream, you not only face the physical barriers, but the mental walls too. You often end up questioning yourself that the pain, the ordeals are truly worth it, specially when the destination  is not in sight. We all have one thing in common, despite our financial, mental or physical strengths, we all have limited number of hours in a day and we don't want to watch if wash away in chasing something that we are not confident about. We must choose our path very cautiously, as we may end up walking the wrong road for a long time before we realize that we truly are lost and ...
