Being Great

-

Being great is more than just doing good work, or performing well under pressure.It is an comprehensive attitude towards the world, and how one interprets it. I think greatness requires lot of space to breathe.Guess, that's why it rises to the top.
Are you ready to meet the eagerness that Monday has for you ?
Every Monday presents to you the opportunity for greatness even more so than any other day.Monday is the beginning.It is when you announce to yourself and the world "This is how it will be !"
What will it bring ? perhaps riches beyond your most fiery pipe-dreams await you.Maybe fame and recognition, or adventure and unanticipated creativity lay just ahead.
The whole thing is up to you ! This is the moment for which you ask when things go wrong - a time to start from scratch.Go do it, right now ! make it happen. make it work.
I woke up in the morning refulgent with excitement and eagerness ready to face the day.So much ahead of me, so much to do, so much was waiting.Many people are watchers but never achieve anything. Others are talkers and criticize those that do and finally there are performers.Performers do something about it and make it happen.
I did nothing with my something and nothing happened. Then, I finally did something with my something and the result was an eye opener.I actually started feeling the results of my efforts.Just then, people started wanting my part of something  and then it began to diminish into nothing.It got to a point where I had to learn how to make something out of almost nothing. Since I had already done that, I was sure it would be easier the second time !

"The Writer's Block"

-
  A   friend recently took me aside and made a point. He was not worried about how I would react. I was nervous too. Of what he would say to me.. Then he made a point …… He asked me to continue writing . He asked me why I had stopped publishing what I used to do before. People out there are looking forward to what I write….Now he wanted me to get going and write… This has prompted me to write and publish again what I lost and missed…. To hell with the ‘Writer’s Block’. When I listened to him that day, I understood that Writer’s Block was not the problem.. The problem laid in ‘not writing anything at all’ ! What I understand is that the only people who think writing is easy are those people who don’t write at all !   No ? The ‘writers block ‘ is not the problem here. It is the fear of not writing well. I am not here for an award or an accolade, I am here because I write and somehow I stopped in between. My audiences here today, may seem a little surprised……but that’s...

The Heart story

  Everybody knows now ….. today , it’s an old story..!.. But concerned people still ask me how I feel and how I am faring with my health …….. I’ve been deliberately taking some time   out here…..you know ?.....giving me some space….. giving myself , that much needed ‘ME ‘ time…. I exercised right ….I ate right ….no cheating foods in between hours….my colleagues at office can vouch for me….no oil , no much sweet , no much sour or hot things…. Then why did I get that stroke , when I got one ? You know , I’ve read it somewhere …… that having an Heart Attack is like a surprise party… where , except for presents , you get an ambulance ride ….! Hahahahaha.. I guess , my heart couldn’t handle all the excitement in my life ….ummmm….too many of them ……It was time to switch to a boring routine……..! It had me boggled over and over again…..Why me ? Why ….after all these years ……….I smoked ….all right ! But then last time I checked ( you know where )   …..….my lungs were clear a...

Other Words !

  After some good days ….more news from the planet ! The red hot Sun is turning into dark red and thus spoiling the get-togethers we usually have from 10:00 Am to 7:00 PM……no ? Is it out of context ?…..Yeah….I know ….this is not me……how do I convert myself from a boring article writer to what’s happening at the core of our planet ?    Not me ! Boring ….yeah….getting older , day by day ..ummm….actually I don’t mind getting older ….you know !...but my body is taking it badly….hahahahahaha….! You feel like your warranty has expired and the parts are beginning to wear out ! I was reading a story on Jesse Owens and how he defeated the German athlete Luz Long at the 1936 Olympics in Germany. Hitler was mad at Long , but he bowed down to Jesse and congratulated him in full view of the crowd. Luz Long and Jesse became best friends and when WW2 started , Long wrote a letter to Jesse from the war front. He wrote “ ( paraphrased by me ) I want to meet my wife. I have not seen my...
