You should do what you like most
Most people are not sure about their jobs and carriers. They never try to find out about their area of interest where as that has very crucial part to play when it comes to job satisfaction. If you were in a job, which you cherish by heart, you would give it your all. Whereas in case if the area of job you are in is not of your liking the chances are that you shall only find it a way to earn money but may not give it your hundred percent, that makes all the difference.
People who choose to work under influence of their parents or they want to become what they are not interested to be in they do not get as much success as much they could achieve if they were in a field of their choice. To be in a field of choice determines a lot and responsible for your becoming successful or not so successful. Therefore, this is advisable to make a choice very carefully. This is not wise to be some one else, which you are supposed to be, you are not destined to be.
Know yourself
This is not wrong to look and see what people are doing around, what are the opportunities available for you. This you can analyze and find the best carrier for yourself because there is no one else who knows you better than yourself. Make sure that while you are finding a person who is doing very good and you want to be some one like him that you have the matching qualities.
If you start planning in a specialized sector, this is wise to evaluate yourself specifically. That would save you from disappointment in case you fall short of qualification criteria and understand it at a later stage while you have already spent money and time on that particular project.
Could I become Amitabh Bachchan or Prakash Padukorne?
I used to be in college while Amitabh Bachchan was touching the greater heights and was on peak of his popularity. I even met him on a few occasions in different places where he was shooting from different movies. I knew he was in a job and he achieved what he did with his talents. He could have continued in his job and have spent his life with altogether different carrier.
However, the question is, could I become an actor like Amitabh Bachchan because I was as tall as him and probably a little better looking. This never came to my mind because that was not my idea to become an actor. I wanted to be marketing professional all along and that is what I am. I used to play badminton while in college and played a few games with players like Prakash Padukorne and Syed Modi, as they were my contemporary. However, I never thought to become professional badminton player because that was not field of priority, I always wanted to be a marketing professional.
Any one can achieve what he likes only when he knows what he wants to be, he knows his areas of interests. He should know the fields where he is likely to be most successful. There is no use selecting a field, which may attract due to money or fame but you have no aptitude for that. The chances are you shall not succeed. Therefore, this is best to know your area of interests before choosing your future carrier.
There are people who reached to the top with hard work
However, that was possible because they were not only willing to achieve their targets and had the unbeatable willpower to achieve their goals. They had the will of iron to overcome any problems they faced that crossed their path. They did not have the slightest of doubts about their abilities to achieve what they wanted to achieve- Here is a boy who comes from a simple background and has done wonders in his choosen field.
.
There is another point here that we should keep in our mind that one can achieve some thing with his hard work but unless one is doing this achievement in his desired field of interest, he would never reach to the top because there would not be the desired driving force that takes some one to the top. Therefore, interest and desire to reach to the top is the key to success.
Never do it because others are doing it
That is not the right choice for you because your friends are doing it. Every one has his own ways and thinking. You have your own qualities in yourself and you are not destined to reach to the same place where all of your other friends are supposed to reach, because you are different from them. Every one has his own qualities so never try to follow them. You should know your own fields of interest to choose from which attract you most.
You see the persons who achieved their goals were determined to do it despite all the adversities and hindrance, but they never allowed any thing to stop them from achieving what they wanted to achieve. The people who achieved them had the unparallel will to achieve what they wanted to be.
Just look at the greats like Sachin Tendulkar, PT Usha, Vishvanathan Anand, Sayna, Saniya and so many like them. Look at our late Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri and look at the people like them who came from nowhere and took the world by storm because they knew what they were looking for and they had the will power to achieve it.
You look at things the way you want to look at them
You know there is a famous saying ‘The way you look at things the things change’ that is true. Someone with a pessimistic outlook would look at every thing with suspicion while some one with an optimistic view would go deeper in to the same and would try to find more and trust me come out with some thing more positive out of it.
A pessimistic will never find any thing positive from a straightforward opportunity while the person with an optimistic view would turn any thing into a success story. Now this is your chance to decide about your future and the way you want to do it. I wish you All the Best.
Is Osama dead?
This is the day when he was killed the biggest terrorist world has ever known ‘Osama Bin Laden’ but the question is ‘Is he really dead’
No one wants to believe it as the terror that he created does not seem to have reduced a bit. His network is as active as it was while he was still alive. Moreover, the people who have faith in his policies have started to take him as the only leader who could fight for their cause. He has bee converted into a martyr.
His death was a mystery
His death was a mystery although every thing looks simple on papers. Every thing is under a shadow of doubt and public only knows whatever they told us after he vanished from the world scene. He was dangerous and terrifying who took world by storm and his end was as dangerous as he himself was.
The fact is which makes every one suspicious about the intentions of Pakistan government is that the three floored house which was hide-out for the dreaded terrorist Osama was in the middle of the army headquarters of Pakistan army which is about sixty Km away from the capital city of Pakistan, Islamabad. The place fully protected, well stocked with arms guarded, fenced with eighteen feet high wall and well stacked with every required facilities to stay safe for longer time. There were number of family members staying along with him and to top it all the building in which he was staying was almost eight times bigger than the buildings in surrounding area. That was not possible to acquire so many facilities and such a big building without the knowledge of government of Pakistan.
He is dead but not dead really
Moreover, this terrorist is still not dead as long as US politics is concerned despite the fact that American commandos killed him on a Sunday night forcing their entry into Abbottabad military town campus in Pakistan. That operation was one of the most secret of operations the US army ever undertook, that too without the knowledge of Pakistan government, as they believed that Pakistan government knew about Osama’s hide out and whereabouts all along. Although Pakistan government never accepted the fact and kept denying it, they simply branded it as ridiculous.
US is trying their best
Us army has taken things more seriously in later days and are continually attacking the terrorist camps in Pakistan and its bordering areas with the unmanned drone planes which is causing a lot of embarrassments not only to Pakistan government but its allies. US seems to be taking things seriously now and is out to demolish the terrorists from Pakistan, that will certainly help the cause of peace which we need so badly allover the world today. Unless the terrorists not demolished and uprooted totally we cannot consider the fact as a reality. Osama Bin Laden is not dead. May be the death of Osama Bi Laden is a shock for Al-Qaeda but the terrorism is a big threat to peace of the world. I am not sure if the death of Osama has made any difference for the dirty designs of terrorists in Pakistan or Afghanistan or for that matter any where in the world.
Therefore, although Osama Bin Laden is dead but is he dead, really?
Are we developed nation that we claim to be?
Yes, we look like a developing nation and we have every right to march ahead. Yes, when we look at our developments, which are taking in almost every field, this would look so in the first sight. Do we follow all the rules expected from us? Why is that we follow all the rules while in foreign countries and forget them when back in our own country.
These are double standards and we are proud to accept them, the best of us not ashamed of laughing the rules out. Rules are not for us but for others to follow. We forget them when the time comes to show that we follow the rules without any force. You see we never honk even while in a traffic jam but while back home then we never take our hands of the horn even if there is no need of the same.
Are we really so learned as they think we are?
I mean every one has started to believe that Indians are educated and leaned people, which is true up to an extent. However, that is true up to an extent only. I do not think there is a bigger community, which is more selfish than the Indians community is overall.
We trust in Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam ‘world is like one big home’ but we are the one who trust that our home is the whole world. This is the feeling of thinking in terms of ‘we’ that is pulling us back, putting us in a jam. There is an urgent need of coming out of thinking in selfish terms. We sure will do far better if we think a little selflessly.
We discuss so much about western culture
I agree with them who criticize western culture when this suits them and they can afford to criticize it. However, let me say that we haven’t done better but tried to follow them in a false manner. This is their culture and they are free to do what they feel suits them best. However, never think for a moment that we did not commit mistakes. In fact, we fabricated a few stories and thought we are the only people who are the ideal most people in the world. In fact, we are pretenders. Please excuse me if I am sounding a bit harsh but that is what reality is.
We need to work harder to eradicate our shortcomings
The time has come when we should go all out and work hard to see to that we are no more suffering from terrorism, religious cross-fighting, Naxal activities and anti national activities and yes we should not forget the self controlled discipline to maintain law and order.
We do not need a law-enforcing agency to tell us that we should walk on the pavements. We should drive in the right lanes and should follow the traffic rules. That is too childish. Nevertheless, we are not law-abiding nation by culture. We need a policeman with cane in his hand to make us follow simple rules.
This is high time political parties understand the need of the hour and work toward the welfare of the country and its population. We are in a bad shape at every front and facing not only dangers from outer forces but at the home front as well. There are many problems, which need immediate attentions. Our growth rate is going down at a drastic pace.
We are having a problem of internal security of the worst kind. We are no good at distribution system of wealth at a rational level and worst of all we are a corrupt nation by nature.
Therefore, there is no alternative but to work hard and take ourselves out of the trouble. There is no use waiting for some one to come and do some special efforts for us. We shall have to take our own steps, one by one. One at a time and see ourselves out of the deep waters.
Stay away from stresses
Stresses and tensions are the biggest universal problems today. Almost every one in the world is going through some or the other problems like stresses, depressions, lack of interest toward life and disturbed mental health. This problem is increasing by the day and taking people in its grip. People are going through hopes and disheartened states, joys and sorrows, success and failures and what not that creates problems for them.
The fact is if can learn to remain happy in worst of situations that would solve many such problems, although this is easy to say but difficult to implement in reality. We feel one way while every thing is working all right but we feel stressed while we face problems, which are parts of the life. That is an art to stay calm while the going is tough, that is really testing time.
What makes us tensed?
We know there are many reasons of these problems; the fact is that they are different for different people. Even smallest of problems may look like big ones for some of us where as some others may not consider them a problem at all. As some people can sleep in any conditions but some others, find even the slightest of disturbance a big problem while sleeping and tension take over them easily. Some people become tensed while find themselves in a traffic jam. These are very small things but irritate some of us like any thing. All these small problems are fatal and make us an easy victim for heart related problems. Therefore, this is advisable to stay as much calm and cool as much possible.
Stay calm and cool: but how
If you want to stay healthy then the best way is to remain positive. Staying cool and positive while trying to find a solution of the problem is the best way, come what may. Ranting never helps in any case, that makes us a laughingstock only Ranting and complaining only increase the chances of health hazards, and they are no good in any way. You cannot imagine staying healthy without staying calm and at ease at all times especially while the difficult moments are there in your life.
We get disappointed easily while the results of any thing are not as per our expectations. That is natural, very much human. So why not plan it well before doing any thing new. A planned job would get us the best of results and we shall be happier with the outcome. If you would stay calm and would learn to take results gracefully, you shall never feel disappointed. The best way is to find a solution of the problems whatever the case, however big they are in size. There is no alternative.
How to deal negativity
Ask any one who knows the secrets of happy life that these are your real friends who help you stay calm and cool in any difficult situations. Without healthy relations with people, you shall never feel energetic and happy. Yes, there are people who feel jealous with your success and try to show you down. However, this is their problem, not yours. You should carry on with normal pace and do your work as you do as ever to not to let them succeed. They will cease to be negative at a certain point.
Avoid certain life styles
Yes, this is another way of keeping away from worries, depressions, panic disorders and negative thoughts. The way we are living making a big difference, lifestyles have changed altogether. We are going through a changed environment. We are neither here nor there. We are thinking in terms of our orthodox ways and acting some thing different while it comes to implementation. This is the price for the phases we have to pay we are passing through. We should keep ourselves moving ahead to help us forget the problems. That is one of the best ways to avoid tensions and stresses. Keeping ourselves busy is the key to stay away from some of the problems those may take us into their grips. Drink lime with water in place of tea and coffee, which are only temporary solutions.
Share your problems, have some hobbies
Sharing problems with your true friends would make them look not as difficult as you thought they were initially. While you share them with your true friends, you feel relieved instantly. They may have some suggestions for you. Never keep problems within yourself, you shall find half of them gone as soon as you share them. That would make you feel instantly relieved.
Another good way to be happy is to keep yourself busy with some thing you lie to do while you are having some spare moments. Gardening, photography, cooking, walking, watching TV, listening to music are some of the hobbies those make things easy for you. I try some photo shooting while feeling depressed. I simply take one of my cameras and go out to find some targets. That keeps me busy for some times and while I come back I feel relaxed up to a certain point.
How to stay fresh
Always concentrate on positive aspects of life and c
onsider negativity as the worst of your enemies. Never feel bad if you fail in some thing despite you tried your hardest and did not get the desired results. Your job was to see to it that you did your best but the result was not in your hands entirely. One may feel disappointed while something happens like that. This is better to let it not take control of the situation. That is not good for you. Try to find a solution and make amendments. I am sure you would find a solution and things would get right. There is no way you would not succeed. However, you shall have to start afresh and accomplish your target. Nevertheless, think of the joy that you would feel while you shall achieve it.
I am sure, you are capable of handling any situations those come and create problems for you. I know nothing can stop finding a solution of these minor bugs those are parts of the game. Just stand straight and face them with courage. Victory is all yours. Enjoy it.
Women are doing better in every field
Women are on the way to progress in every field. They are finding their place in every field including defense, education, engineering, medical, sports, law, fashion & beauty, movies & television, mass media and you name it. The percentage of women in the field of education has gone up with a very fast rate. They are doing far better than men are doing in every field. One problem is making them taking the back seat in some areas, which is preventing them doing still better. They are not feeling safe in certain areas, which is the main draw back. The work environment is still not as it should be to give them a level playing opportunity.
(Photos taken during my Australian visit)
Women are not safe on the roads
The biggest problem that is making them feel unsecured is the law and security of the women. The way women are facing harassment on the crowded streets no woman wants to go out alone in some particular areas. They feel more unsecured if they have to go out to work in night shifts. The rural people are still giving preference to their male children than girls, which again is another main reason for women to take a back seat. This is one of the major reasons for women to feel depressed but they are coming out of this mentality at a fast rate.
The men oriented thinking
Men oriented thinking is one of the biggest problems which women are facing even in twenty first century, keeping back women up to a certain extent. There are so many people suggesting them about the carrier they should select for themselves. They are not, allowed to choose a carrier for themselves according to their own choice but some one in the family would take this decision for them. That is not fair as they want to take-up some thing else and not what the carrier which is like forced on them. The people with orthodox mentality still do not count them who can take independent decisions for themselves.
There are certain points:
1- If we have to see, our women folks take their proper place in the society we shall have to make a combined effort to make them powerful.
2- Women are not asking for any thing on a charity level, this is their right, which every one shall have to grant them without any hitch.
3- We shall have to see that they get a fare share in every field including social, political and ancestral property.
4- Women should have the right of decision in every field including their family and themselves in particular.
5- Right to education and jobs must be among the basic rights with in their easy reach.
6- The most important point while we discuss about women empowerment should be the law that supports them particularly against atrocities. This should not be only on papers but practically.
7- Every one should see that women get her fundamental rights of living as an equal and enjoys as much as their male counterparts do.
8- Education is all right but this should come to them naturally, right to live and right to education, which our governments provide to them but we seem to overlook whereas these should be our priorities.
9- We should do every thing to uplift the self-confidence of our women folks if we want to see them grow. There would be no development in our social and cultural atmosphere if our women do not get what they deserve, their right of equality.
