The Next Thirty Days...Day 9 (Remember)



Remember
Remember what?
Whatever you would like too
....
What happened?
Thinking about what to remember
Funny
Why, what's funny?
For you are the one who always to start with "Remember...."
Yes, I do remember that...
So why are you thinking....Just remember whatever you would like too....or whatever you can, don't have to think too much about it
You mean I can think about my first word?
Yes
Or my first step
Yes
Or first day of school
Hmmm
Or my first love
vow...
Or the first time I met my wife
good....
I think ...I jumped too many
Meaning..
I jumped from my first love to my wife...I missed a lot many in between
Like
The first lecture we bunked
Ha...we had almost entered the class and turned back...for movie....God that was some fun
And the first time we flunked....
Ooops.....yeah it was much easier than we had thought....right?
Right..
And it then equally tough getting back on track....
Hmm...yes...forget that what else
What else....let me think
Why do you need to think.....
For they are far too many things to remember...
That's true...even I am finding it difficult
Some bitter...
Some sweet...
Some eventful...
And some really dull...
Some funny..
And some really very emotional ...
Like...becoming a father...
Or utter those magical words...mom...dad
Seeing your little kid take the baby steps...
Then suddenly realizing ....that now they are very much on their own
And you are in the twilight of life....
Having all the time in the world to remember everything...everything
Not knowing what to remember
Yes....but then there are a few who made such difference to my life through the warmth and care that remembering them comes just like the way I breath
I know...we remember them from bottom of our....the depth even the seas can't fathom
Maybe tomorrow....someone will remember us too just the way we remember them
But today it's our time..time to remember and cherish all that we have and all that we do not...
Yes....it's never too late to realize that not everything you want in life is worth remembering..but what you have is much more worth remembering....
REMEMBER
REMEMBER

What's Next

Life can get pretty tough if you have not decided on what's next. Because each time you achieve or do something on the go, you have to keep thinking about what's next.  Spontaneity is good to an extent. It can get you to a particular point, but then after you have to be sure about which way are you going to go or what you are going to do next.  There will come a time when you will have to sit down, reflect, and ask some tough questions to yourself. Do some soul searching in your quest to find out what is next.  Because you can't be aimlessly be shooting out in the dark and hoping to hit the target. Knowing where, what, why, and how you are going to aim for the target drastically improves and enhances your chances of hitting the target.  So the next time you think about what's next, think of it as a series of goals and objectives to help you achieve the big picture. Preparation combined with a dash of spontaneity takes what's next to the next level.

Day 19 - The Power of Multidisciplinary Approach

In an era of specialization, many of the world's most successful people advocate for a broader, more holistic view—one that embraces a multidisciplinary approach to life. This approach involves combining knowledge and skills from various fields, leading to better problem-solving, creativity, and adaptability. Think of a Renaissance person like Leonardo da Vinci, whose expertise spanned art, science, and engineering, shaping innovation for centuries. Today, the importance of a multidisciplinary mindset has become even more crucial in navigating the complexities of modern life. The Impact of a Multidisciplinary Approach David Epstein’s book, Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, provides compelling arguments for why those who explore a wide variety of interests often outperform their more specialized peers in the long run. Epstein highlights examples from sports, business, and science, showing that people who dip their toes into different fields are often...

How Many Things Do You Do in an Hour?

How Many Things Do You Do in an Hour? Not finish, do. It’s different. Doing has nothing to do with finishing. Neither am I talking about productivity. I’m just asking — what do you do? Let’s see... You walk into the office. Grab a cup of coffee — if your office provides one. Sit down, open your inbox. You start typing a reply — But a word in that email triggers a memory. Oh, that call! The one you forgot to make. You pull out your phone. Dial. Done. Except… now that call adds a new task to your to-do list. (If you keep one.) Before you hang up, a colleague stops by. You end the call. You listen. It’s about that meeting you missed. Because you were in another meeting. A more important one. Apparently. You nod, thank them. Just then — your phone rings. It’s your manager. "Update me on the meeting you attended. And I hope you got the heads-up on the one you didn’t. Meet me in five minutes." You say yes. You turn back to the email — But remember: You had asked someone...
