Life............

“

Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass…”

*It is about learning to dance in the rain !"




Don't just have career or academic goals. Set goals to give you a balanced,
successful life. I use the word balanced before successful. Balanced means
ensuring your health, relationships, mental peace are all in good order.






There is no point of getting a promotion on the day of your breakup. There
is no fun in driving a car if your back hurts. Shopping is not enjoyable if
your mind is full of tensions.





"Life is one of those races in nursery school where you have to run with a
marble in a spoon kept in your mouth. If the marble falls, there is no point
coming first. Same is with life where health and relationships are the
marble. Your striving is only worth it if there is harmony in your life.
Else, you may achieve the success, but this spark, this feeling of being
excited and alive, will start to die.




One thing about nurturing the spark - don't take life seriously. Life is not
meant to be taken seriously, as we are really temporary here. We are like a
pre-paid card with limited validity. If we are lucky, we may last another 50
years. And 50 years is just *2,500* weekends. Do we really need to get so
worked up?




It's ok, bunk a few classes, scoring low in couple of papers, goof up a few
interviews, take leave from work, Enjoy with your friends, fall in love,
little fights with your loved Ones . We are people, not programmed devices.



"Don't be serious, be sincere."!
