Tree of Beautiful Life

Tree of Beautiful Life - Part 2

In our last blog, we discussed that there some key aspects of life which we need to take care of in order to lead a fulfilling and satisfying life and create this tree of beautiful life. The relative importance among these might differ from person to person but overall I believe it would remain the same for all of us - Diet, Exercise, Appearance, Behavior, Mindset, Creation and Devotion. Today, we will just take mindset out of it and talk more on that, rest we will cover in subsequent blogs.

Growth Mindset

Always try to improve in whatever you are doing.

Learn new skills, improve on existing skills, look for new ways, look for ideas.

Improved a lot of sports related skills which I have always been doing. More importantly, worked on mobility, flexibility, balance, strength and so more. I tried to make goals and achieve them.

I learned a bit of guitar, keyboard, and music in general. Improved my singing as well.

I tried to learn multiple new languages as well.

I also learnt at least basics of cooking as well, things at least I can do to get my diet on my own.

Went on a 15 days road trip for the 1st time in life. What a lovely and fantastic experience that was.

Also a lot of journaling, making it a daily practice, first time in life that I have a record of every day of my year and also goal setting and achieving and reviewing and assessing. Awesome!

I worked and improved so much on myself, to improve my thoughts, actions and behavior.

In short, nothing short of a miracle in terms of trying out new things and improving.

The Warmth of Sun

There is possibly a moment in everyone’s life when we realize that everything on this earth, whatever lived and breathed and smiled, managed to do this because there is someone who is scorching and glowing, encompassing all the chaos within, and giving away all that it can, in the form of eternal flow of energy. The present and future lives follow the same script. This is our Sun, so grand and so far, yet caring kindly and giving generously. For me, that moment is whenever I experience the power of fire. It is so overwhelming even from a distance that when I stand to think about it, my heart fills with cries for everyone who unfortunately had to experience it in life. And then thoughts wander towards real fire lord, our Sun, just to think about the turmoil of atoms and heat and the vast scale of all of it and containing that all since billions of years and will continue to do so for billions more and with all that, managing to create and sustain happiness millions of kilometers away, i...

Eternal Love

This poem is for my love for Sho which is eternal. My gratitude to you will never end and I feel so joyful and content when I am with you. May God bless you and May you be always happy and healthy. A stranger walks into my life unhindered, stokes fire in mind n leaves it bewildered, dances on my heart-beats so immaculately, that it makes me craving to be her kindred. She shows up when there is none, talks n talks n talks while I am mum, caresses every fiber of my eardrum, and purges my worries in a pool of fun. I look at sky and envisage her face, twinkling stars fading against her winking eyes, full moon lying himself just to feel glees, and infinite space reminding of her endless tries. Never before anyone cared for me so much, like a cool breeze and it's gentle touch, O' my lord if love is so special as such, then bless my life with her even in a HUTCH.

Phoolon saa Jeevan

Sakuchaaye se phoolon ko dekh, aaj main bharmaya saa tha Sahsaa mere man mein ek, khila hua saa khayaal aaya tha Ki phoolon saa ban naa bhi, kitna mushkil hota hoga Ki karma apna, nishkaam saa, bas karte jaana hota hoga Log nihaarein, log savarein, par phoolon ko muskaana aata hai apni adbhut sundar kaaya ko chhan chhan dhalte dena aata hai Jeevan kshanik ho sakta hai, par sugandh bikherna fir bhi sambhav Aur kaisi bhi ho naarajgi, prem ka bhaav waapas laana hai sambhav Phool rang hai, phool utsaah hai, aur shaanti doot bhi phool hai Phool ehsaas hai, phool maasoomiyat hai, aur vinamrata bhi to hai Phool pooja hai, phool shraddha hai aur phool adhyaatm bhi hai Phool ek nootan shuruaat hai to phool antim dagar bhi to hai

344x Returns

Recently, I increased my activity on LinkedIn and discovered a wealth of useful information by following the right pages. I've always been a fan of general knowledge, but currently focusing more on startup-related information, which is abundant there. One post highlighted that the founders of Snapdeal are achieving returns of 157x in the Shadowfax IPO. This prompted me to consider whether this is the best ROI from recent Indian IPOs. After some research, found that there are even bigger returns. Here are the top 5 before Shadowfax, first one at 344x:

Chapter One - A shocking failure

Night beckoned and the desire to protest crumbled to pieces as her feet began to collapse under the enormous strain she had been enduring for hours. Her defence was conceived inexpugnable among the fraternity named Silent Sodality by it's father founder, venerable among people of all ages, with a solemn pledge to purge vitiated minds across the world. He was the man of words preternaturally skilled in wielding weapons along a mental force reckoned coercive by all. His motives were clear and just and he tied everyone becoming a part of this family with a set of rules, ambits and secrets using a oath which devours your strength in case of any breach of code and conduct. The vow was never broken and the world flourished with the bravery and wits of those noble souls giving every bit for the cause but never before it was subjected to such a strenuous test in the history. "You know you can't do it, why don't you give in? You are only lingering the inevitable." a grave...
