Things this guy realized - Part 9



1. Through not observing what is in the mind of another a man has rarely been seen to be unhappy, but those who do not observe the movements of their own minds must of necessity be unhappy. ~ Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

2. When the going gets tough, the tough get going !

3. With this relative mind, the absolute cannot be found

4. If you want success only do it with your brain, if you want it with peace do it with your heart

5. The real self is like the railway track, it is static and still, just different trains go on it, on the self different thoughts crosses, but the self remains static and still

6. Water in a pond is completely still as long as nothing disturbs it, similar the mind becomes completely still when thought shall cease

7. "The moment we want to be something we are no longer free." ~ K

8. Is the mind is located within the body ?

9. You will meet your destiny even if you don't want to

10. Productivity is directly proportional to unwavering focus, making things easy for ourselves and others, not glorifying the completion of one's assigned essential duties.

11. The greatest intelligent tool we rarely use is 'Common sense'

12. India's major export is it's talent.If this is considered as an export entity, India's trade deficit with many countries will become trade surplus.

13. When we travel in a highway in night, when we come across the brighest headlight , nearly nothing is visible. It's not because it dulls others light, but outshines them. Similarly, when we amplify our postive thoughts, automatically our negative thoughts become less powerful.

14. Where there is a differentiation, there is discrimination

15. Whatever comes after 'I am ...' is transient

16. We are fooled everyday but we try not be fooled only one day.

17. We pay lakhs of rupees and most of time to get primary, secondary education and professional degrees. But zero rupee and zero time to become a human being with common sense. What is the use of these degrees if we don't learn to apply the things we know ? The writer is also one amongst these.

18. Nothing can give you peace than having a clear conscience. That will truely mean Rest In Peace.

19. If there is no for, then there is no against. That is reality.

20. Never admonish someone completely, everyone is good in some ways.

21. If mind follows a curfew, then humanity is at peace

22. The world needs people who does and not who says

23. The urge of wanting to be right can make us go wrong

24. Secure leaders create leaders, Insecure leaders create followers.

My memories with MS Dhoni

My memories with MS Dhoni : In December 2004, during a half yearly holidays in my high school he came in as a fashionable young wicket keeper, had seen many specialist keepers come and go in that period such as Parthiv Patel, DK, Ajay Ratra, Deep Dasgupta, so was not having any awe in him and getting a run out in hurried manner wasn't an impressive first showing. Was ignorant of the facts behind then, that he came from 3 centuries with India A in Kenya. Slowly as the days progressed, one rainy noon on the summer of April 2005, came back from an Annual exam to see India scoring more than 300 runs in the ODI against Pakistan in Vizag, from the scorecard saw that there was a change in batting order with MS Dhoni at 3 scoring 148 runs at a quick pace, but even then didn't have an awe in him. Days progressed through 2005, near a Deepavali day I was having a holiday, there was an ongoing ODI series against Sri Lanka, the series was already decided with India had won it comfortably al

Transformation of data and analytics with information technology

The world we are in is driven by data. In other words, Data has been the backbone behind this transformation with technology. In the early days, trade was driven purely by commodity exchange for which the data was captured in numerics. Later, after the invention of coins and subsequently printed money the idea of market expanded with the printed money being able to be a common currency. For this study, let us take the emergence of the United States' economy. From the advent of market economy starting 19th century, consequently there was a need for a banking system and public investment through stock markets and US had higher flow of goods and services, enabling a larger consumer base which meant the data was saved in paper and pen.

So for this it needed to be stored in servers for there was a visual input and output needed. This enabled the pursu

India's Economy - Thinking through the Journey and the Road Ahead

What comes into our mind when we first hear the word 'India'? Diversity? More than 1000 year old monuments? A land of wisdom? Crowded places? The skyscrapers, fast highways may come as the last pictures in one's memory. India has always been a great place for pilgrimages wherein people come in the quest to understand the true meaning of the life that has been given to them. People of India come from the ethnicity of saving and trying to live a life with contentment. But this contentment has been slowly fading in the age of consumerism. Let us see the journey of India economy and its chances of blooming in the future. The Journey: Years 1947 to 1990 :  After Independence, India had adapted the socialist and protectionist principles mainly assuming that adapting capitalism would be letting something similar to East Indian Company through the back door after attaining independence. So the state was keen to keep all the powers and licenses of businesses under its co
