Life - the choices we have (or dont)...

What got me started on this topic was this entire helplessness that exists around controlling one's heart. i mean - life would be so god-damned simple if we could all logically decide who to love, what to support, how much to stretch, what all to feel (or not feel).

If we could order the heart to like or dislike someone or something - it wouldnt catch us by surprise. It would make life and its course fairly safe, simple and straightforward. Possibly even open up avenues of spending more time enjoying it than crying / screaming / raving / ranting about things not under control.

So then why does it all sound so boring to me??? Have always believed that the unpredictability of life makes it interesting - but is this really true? Isnt this just another way of consoling oneself when things dont go as per plan?

What would anyone do if given a true choice between the two - choose what your life should be like or let it come to you one day at a time?

How many of us will actually choose the latter? why?

Is the fear or boredom truly greater than the fear of uncertainity?

hmmm... i wonder...

Jindagi ke arth kuch badalte hain is tarah, Jaise samundar ke paas ki rait ki satah, Jab lagta samajh aane lagi hai jindagi, Ek aur lahar aati hai paheli ki tarah, Ab kya karein ham is jindagi se jirah, Mazza aane laga hai humein jeene mein isi tarah...

Work Cultures

This is again something's which has been on my mind for a while - maybe today it just moved to the forefront - and hence here i am. Work cultures - what makes them? who decides what culture to give an office? Have always thought that just like any other relationship in life - the office culture also begins with having the best intentions at heart and then making sure those intentions convert to actions. So dont just 'think' about having an open culture - Make sure that your attitude is truly open. My idea of a good working culture is a place where accountability and responsibility go very much hand in hand. Warmth and openess will come automatically if the team members are secure about their roles and organization's expectations from each employee... The role that a team leader plays in shaping the culture - almost single-handedly - is undeniable. True leadership comes through in absolutely the smallest of things that we do. Or dont do. How much does it cost to give th...
