I want to do an MBA

When someone asks you what are your plans for the future and your impromptu reaction is oh me! I want to do an MBA. Well then please ask yourself a question 'Why do you want to do an MBA?' because believe me if you do not have a definite reason for doing MBA then the MBA will do you. You'll be put under trunk load of stress and chunk load of work, you'll have to manage assignments, lectures, cases, group discussion, presentations, quizzes and lots more all in a day. And when you are back from college you'll hit the library to prepare for the next days marathon and you definitely can't survive without preparing for the next day and if you fail to do it even once you'll be finding everything going in a tangential direction. So under such conditions you tend to question - was I struggling to get into a B-schools to go through this stress which keeps you on your toes all the time?

But then there is a school of thought and I subscribe to it too that going through hell is essential for a MBA grad and that's why an MBA is worth more than just a degree. It can turn a bad manager of time like me in to an efficient one, it will gradually make you someone who is not baffled in extreme situations, will make you a person capable of understanding the group dynamics and tackling different individuals in different ways and the list goes on but each day its an exhausting as well as enriching experience.

So as the quote goes "Something that does not kill you only makes you stronger". And I see the senior batch at my college are still alive and partying hard I believe that I'll survive it too and come out a stronger person from this drill.

    Nice Post! hmmm...there is suffering in life, and there are defeats. When one goes through hardships and decides not to surrender, that is strength.It is better to battle in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you're fighting for.

I can't put a title to it!

Blank is the feeling and not so blunt are the words... Its like a gypsy with no mission and no where to reach, he only arrives and he only travels not chasing anything. No dreams to follow but is still a dreamer, no highs to reach but is still a bird that flies high. This he chose by choice but is felicity in sight? Its a question not only the gypsy but we all ought to ask. Its dubious, the answer; and makes him diffident on rationality of existence... Another gloam arrives and again the rage of the seeker is choked a little more...

Code...Decode

In the state of existence we go through umpteen number of emotions everyday, some decipherable and some not. And it all depends how much do you keep things simple and how much clarity is there in thoughts and thought process. If you have too many feelings and thoughts that you can't seem to decode and its all jumbled up and setting it all straight is like a impossible task then that's "Impasse". Being at a dead is when you got to reorient yourself because there is no other way out. But what happens when the direction you take after reorientation puts you on another dead end path?... Are you lost again?

Silly Billy

Life has it twist and turns, we are always are on a winding road, no destination just the journey and then the end one day. But on the way we gather some memories good and bad, people good and bad, experiences good and bad. But one day when we look back we either say my life has been good or bad. And that conclusion is not dependent on the count of good memories, people or experiences exceeding the bad ones but depends entirely on which one we choose to remember and cherish. And which one we choose to remember depends on our attitude and outlook to life in general.  Positivity grows by believing that everything is going to be alright no matter what. The bad times won't last forever and the good ones will come soon but if we continue to think in the same direction and also add that eventually the good times would last too and the bad ones would be back again; well then, you have grown too wise for your own good. And that means you need some foolishness and sillin...
