Understanding People

Usually we divide people in various categories introvert, extrovert, funny, sarcastic, easy going, shy etc. Then  we choose whether we have the same frequency with them or not using our intuition. Sometimes its hard to understand why we get along with people who are so different from us. I would not call myself a  people's person because i am definitely not . In my school/college i have been a shy person who concentrated on studies mostly. But as i grew up i now know my self as an introvert who knows with  whom i want to open up to. As a shy person is not confident enough to enjoy things they like  when surrounded by people, i have stopped calling myself shy. Its very difficult to understand people like parents can't understand their children and vice versa, husbands can't understand their wives, bosses can't understand their employees , trump can't understand china(this one is joke , no one can understand their eating habits) and so on.  If  we try to unde...

30 Minutes without INTERNET

Unusually I had to do some office work this weekend, so after doing all my chores for the day ,i.e getting up from the bed,bathing and eating breakfast I thought i would get back to work after binge watching a few episodes of HIMYM. But as my open my laptop to begin the work , i noticed that the internet was unavailable. So i called my internet provider and he told me that it would be off for half an hour or more. So i decided to scroll down my FB/Insta feed  (using mobile data) to kill time. But as i was scrolling down something hit me and hit me hard.

Lately I started thinking something else instead , recalling all those memories i had in the childhood when there were no internet , computers &smart phones,phone calls were too costly that we use...

What next?

What next?  Our entire life switches between two phases continuously - Good and bad. Good times gives us new friends and bad times the genuine ones. Each phase has its own beauty. One makes us thankful to God and the other brings us closer to Him. We all hope that the bad phase ends up soon and we jump into the good phase , the phase of settlement we may call it. But after thinking (yes i do it often), i realize that the good phase also has two phases which are  "get this" and "what next". We all go through a rat race in early stages of our lives in school,college ,job search and what is waiting for us at the end of this race , a "9 to 5" trap with a 6 figure salary as bait and most of us want to be trapped into  it .In fact all of us , and those who are left are considered losers . And after getting into this trap , we are never able to get out of this "what next" phase.We don't know what we want in life and resort to usel...

The Workaholic Tribe

The Workaholic Tribe There are many kinds of people in the world . There are lazy,laid-back,procrastinators,non passionate and what not  and then there are workaholics. There is no problem in being workaholic till your boss comes in that category. If your boss is a workaholic and  you are not then you may be screwed up. As he would always push you but you want to be glued to your slow pace. I too consider myself a workaholic.But I am  surely someone who always want to be occupied with office work in office. Frankly speaking I consider using Facebook , Youtube and personal work in that 9 to 5 time frame a cardinal sin . But being in a software company , at many times i find myself idle so i try to fill that void by doing something productive. 6 Signs that You are a Workaholic 1) You get stressed when you are not stressed. Something clicked.... If you are a smart workaholic then you may face difficulties when you are not challenged by a critical pr...
