Changes in Life

It seems difficult to digest the word changes..! Changes is sux.. indeed its unwanted.. but need changes or else life will be spiceless.. in a dull world always.. Yet i hate changes.. some are forcefull changes and some are optional changes and some are useless changes.. i bet changes has many meanings.. the key one is the painfull one..

I opt not to make a changes in my life.. yet i couldnt live without one.. many changes in my life have deterred alot.. do i need to except further changes ? life will tell !!

Rice harvest Day..

Rice harvesting day today.. or more widely known within tamil community as "Ponggal". Wonderfull day.. a Holy day.. The day marks the rice harvesting day for the tamil community around the globe.. a day of thanks to the god for a plentiful good harvesting.. But not all are farmers.. some of them.. i guess probarbaly we celebrate together as a sign of thanks for the bowl of rice we are having everyday.. :)

Well this year is the first year.. "im not celebrating it".. no colorfull decorations.. no sugar cane tie up's(usualy they would hung sugar cane at the entrance of the house).. no rice pot with pouring rice.. as it significantly would be.. yea.. i feel a little awkward.. but i have to accept it.. cause in indian tradition if a person is dead... especialy elderly alots of celebration has to be put away for 1 year.. so my grandmother who passed away on Mei last year. So the 1 year cycle of mourning has not reach yet.. well no celebrations..

This year.. as normal... same style as previous deepavali celebration.. cook veg foods and pray at home.. as simplicitic as possible... well i dont like it.. for me.. im very particular with all this.. a celebration needs to be a celebration.. it cannot be dull ! no way..!

but .. i have to respect my grandmothers soul..

Well.. for all my tamil friends who are celebrating ponggal festival.. Happy ponggal day guys...

Picture with thousand words.

Haaa... my solo picture starts to go places circulating from hand to hand.. its a indian traditional especialy for the one that searching for groom or bride to get married.. to send the picture first.. to check the look.. later the details of the person.. then the family background... then the financial + the parents lineage (caste to be precise).. if it reached to this level.. the final one will be the prediction check by the holy man (usually in temples) to verify how the bride and the groom will be living.. will they be happy.. will they have child.. will the marriage stops half way.. i.e. divorce and things like that. They have this mathematical counts to check on the sun signs. Usually the prediction will be based on planetarium houses.. each individual house of the planetarium stars represents something.. usually wealth, health, love, child and so on.. if both the groom and the bride has certain level of combination then it s a straight go for the wedding.. else.. in some cases there is some prayers to hid away any bad things to happend if both family still decides to get married.. i never came across anyone with 100% match.. usually 70 - 80% match is considered very good lower then that.. is best to avoid and keep searching.. this is what my mom told me..

Well its a long process to go for me...my picture just starts its journey.. not sure who will pick the picture and who will look on it.. whatever it is.. i hope everything is smooth...

Nervous... Anxious.. & Terrified...

Resolution ? No! Revolution!! hell yeah!

Today while i was having a conversation with someone.. the conversation

was somehow diverted with new year resolution topic.. On my mind i thought to myself (Gimme a break.. i dont give a f*** with new year resolution.. I have resolutions all the new years begining.. and none of them work!!!!! resolution's is full of crappy sh**!!).

Sorry with my words blog readers... but this is the inevitable fact...

It wont work.. my style, aim on something and work with it right away.. writing down

and planning and constructing and.. bla and bla and bla and bla... wont work!! especialy on the begining of new year. I did alot of those when i was small.. each new year.. take out a brand new book and pencil and write down crapy things that i wanted to achieve on the year but it will end forgoten or never get to see the sun shine... What a waste..

Bottom line.. forget the resolution crap ! Revolutionize your life !!!!!!

62 WAYS TO MAKE 2010 YOUR BEST YEAR YET

62 WAYS TO MAKE 2010 YOUR BEST YEAR YET

1. Remember that leadership isn't about your position. It's about your influence.

2. Get fit like a pro athlete.

3. Lift people up versus tearing people down.

4. Protect your good name. An impeccable reputation takes a lifetime to build. And 60 seconds to lose.

5. Surround yourself with positive, ethical people who are committed to excellence.

6. Remember that even a 1% daily innovation rate amounts to at least a 100% rate of innovation in 100 days.

7. Believe in your dreams (even when others laugh at them).

8. Measure your success, not by your net worth but by your self worth (and how happy you feel).

9. Take an intelligent risk every 24 hours. No try-No Win.

10. Read "Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist".

11. Watch "Man on Wire".

12. Regardless of your title at work, be a team builder.

13. Remember that business is all about relationships and human connections.

14. Say "please" more.

15. Say "thank you" more.

16. Know your Big 5: the five things that need to happen by the end of this year for you to feel its been your best year yet.

17. Read your Big 5 every morning while the rest of the world is asleep.

18. Read "As You Think". At least twice this year.

19. Be willing to fail. It's the price of greatness.

20. Focus less on making money and more on creating value.

21. Spend less, save more.

22. Leave everything you touch better than you found it.

23. Be the most positive person in every room you're in.

24. Run your own race.

24. Stay true to your deepest values and best ideals.

25. Write a handwritten thank you note to a customer/friend/loved one every day.

26. When you travel, send love letters to your kids on hotel stationary. In time, they'll have a rich collection to remember your travels by.

27. Read "Atlas Shrugged".

28. Be a problem solver versus a trouble maker.

29. Rather than doing many things at mediocrity do just a few things-but at mastery.

30. Honor your parents.

31. Commit to doing great work-whether anyone notices it or not. It's one of life's best sources of happiness.

32. Give more than you receive (another of the truths of happiness).

33. Have your 1/3/5/10/25 years goals recorded on paper and review them weekly.

34. Be patient. Slow and steady wins the race. The only reason businesses that went from zero to a billion in a year or two get featured in magazines is because 99% of businesses require a lot more time to win.

34. Underpromise and then overdeliver.

35. See part of your job as "a developer of people" (whether you work in the boardroom or the mailroom).

36. Wear your heart on your sleeve. When people see you're real, they'll fall in love with you.

37. Be authentic versus plastic.

38. Read "The Alchemist".

40. Consider that behind every fear lives your next level of growth (and power).

41. Eat less food.

42. Drink more water.

43. Rest when you need to.

44. Read "SUCCESS" magazine.

45. Write your eulogy and then live your life backwards.

46. Demand the best from yourself.

47. Remember that the more you go to your limits, the more your limits will expand.

48. See everything that happens to you as an opportunity to grow (and therefore, as a precious gift).

49. Be obsessed with learning and self-development.

50. Become comfortable alone (you are the only person you get to be with your whole life).

51. Smile. It's a stunningly effective way to win in business and life.

52. Reflect on the shortness of life.

53. Be bold when it comes to your dreams but gentle with those you love.

54. Remember that success is dangerous because it can kill drive/innovation/passion and going the extra mile. Be successful yet stay hungry.

55. Read "The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin".

56. Be of deep value to this world.

57. Own beautiful things but don't let them own you.

58. Use excellent words.

59. Laugh more.

60. Don't complain, gossip or be negative.

61. Plan as if you'll live forever but live as if you'll die tomorrow.

62. Feel free to pass these lessons on to those you want to help.
