Stay hungry stay foolish

I dont know if you stumble upon a similar situation so often, but there have been countless days in my life when I've felt guilty and worthless for not doing 'WHAT IM MEANT TO DO'.
The most ironic thing that I have observed however and am stunned by is the story of 3 great, very successful men. I don't know their biographies very well but there is one common thread that binds them together which stirs my thoughts to amazement.
Im talking about Baz Luhrmann, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates.

And they share a strikingly stark truth : At 20, They didnt know what they wanted to do with their lives.
They chose to follow their intuition, which was itself a very dark, unexplored hallway then.

They share another staggering fact : They have been at the very top of what they finally chose to do and they've emerged to be the most victorious and powerful men in their respective fields.

I am in complete awe of the irony here. The most successful people in the world never planned for success. They simply followed their hearts. They stand out now from amongst us all because they dared to take that plunge. They've all set an example for the world and they speak of their lives so inspiringly.We listen in awe, but the real question is does any one of us actually follow this simple rule to happiness?
I am a shrewd realist and I refuse to allow myself to believe that their lives could somehow be recreated somewhere, and another successful man would wake up to a similar story.

But I'm inspired enough by their stories to idolize them.
Their examples are reason enough for me to wake up every day, look in the mirror and have faith in myself.
Faith that, I can reach there too.
I can worry myself to death.
I can shatter my self-belief.
I can feel worthless
And I can be completely clueless about my life.
BUT, if I follow my heart and do that which makes me truly truly happy...
I CAN REACH THERE TOO.
I CAN!




Don't be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Dont let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice.

and most important

Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition...
They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else....is secondary.

- Steve Jobs.


Don't worry about the future.

- Baz Luhrmann

unplanned but not unhappy

I dont know if you would want to thank my computer for being so unabashedly tardy at downloads - i guess the end of my blog would decide that - because im typing this blog to pass my time which is exactly metered at 7 minutes and 11 seconds.I have absolutely no doubt that I won't come up with anything readable in that amount of time so save yourself the regret and me-the curses. This is like a clear forewarning from a nice person albeit a terrible salesperson for doing just the opposite of her job.
Anyway, so my latest topic of bhelpuri banter stems from my hatred for 'PLANS'. I am fighting against them like a woman on a mission trying to prove a point to make the world a much-less complicated and unplanned place. First, Ill tell you the origin of this battle - in one word - a friend named Suchi ( yeah weird name, I know, whatever!) and her gnawing obsession for getting microscopic about plans.Next, Ill explain my reason for the rebel.
OOOOPS...my download is over....
can I continue this later?
I hadnt planned it you see....

;) ha ha...relax...was pulling a fast one on ya...
Anyway, Im against them because I believe it takes too much energy to be conscientous in your professional surroundings as it is; Isnt it enough for the day to stretch the whole masquerade while letting your hair down too.
I mean, 'we wanna go out for drinks', so we JUST WANNA GO OUT FOR DRINKS. Pick a place, an outfit, your peeps and head out there. Why, and im seriously asking WHHHHYYYY those 100 phone calls before your FINALLY AT THE PLACE! And yeah, isnt it always.. ALL-WAYS better to do something in the next moment that you hadnt thought about or imagined you would be doing. You can throw in some surprises for yourself once in a while cant ya!
I feel like watching a movie NOW so Im gonna GO WATCH A MOVIE NOWWW....and I know that even if I end up going for it alone - because of my boorrrring friends being too uptight about the lack of preparation - I am going to enjoy it. If not the movie, then the thrill of catching my mental planner offguard and beating it to the chase.
Yeah,so you get it? I like being impromptu. When it comes to relaxation, I prefer not knowing whats next, I prefer challenging my thoughts once in a while and I get a good kick outta it....but this blog wasnt to enlighten you about my attitude towards plans but rather to enlighten SOMEONE about their obsession for them...
