Reloving the art

 Once you decide to make change in your life, the path appears itself.

I came across this youtube video on how to remember what you read, because just passing your eyes over the text is waste of your precious time. I tried it on two books that I have been reading, Crime and Punishment and Designing Data Intensive Applications. I was amazed how much I enjoyed reading. 

We have to rekindle our love for the art that we want to passionately bloom. 

I wish this time I maintain the consistency, or even if I lose it, I restart sooner. 

I now have two targets for this month, read more and code more, I will start reading other people's code to become a better programmer and work on finishing my bookmarked playlists for technical growth.

Good night  and gratitude.

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

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 ...
