Motivation to work

Almost everybody will agree that motivation to do a thing decreases with time...so even if you are fully motivated to paly for team india cos you will get 100 crores if you succeed..the motivation or willingness to work hard for 12 hours per day will not be the same after one year from the time you started...even tho u may now need the 100 crores more..... But it is also the case that the some people do get demotivated more quickly than others....and some may even seem to get more motivated as time passes...does it discredits the first staement...i think not.....what happens is thatu can embellish the motivational tool...like what will you do with the 100 crores...the more things you can think about the more postive energy you can gain......so one of the ways to remain motivatedis to think about the positives in all its variations cos one variation will help u only so muc

establishment of causality

we must have read it so many times, a positive corelation doesnot establishes causality..but we still tend to make the mistake in our everyday life. when i was young i remember reading in a survey that olderr men prefer Test matches and younger men ODIs...i thot the reason should be that youth likes the extra energy of odis while maturer men like the nuances of tests....and to prove the fact me being in college liked odis better.

but as slowly but surely i grow accustom to office life routine..suddenly i have found myself liking test matches and the reason being test matches can ease the office ennui for 5 days rather than one slam bang day of odis....so i think test odi comparison for youth older persons are not causal...
so while i avoid the mistake of assuming causality from corelation however i m still open to criticism from generalising from a particular instance..so dont believe me 100%..neways these are intended to make u think rather than no

Thermodynamics, laws and life

while most will agree that people in general take the path of least resistance..just like fluids but i have a different argument here...if you stop thinking about bigger things in life..by big i mean things having lotta scope to provide pain or pleasure....but even if lets say i ignore those profound things am i devoid of pain or pleasure...unfortunately or fortunately no..cos brains chemical balance follows the laws of thermodynamics and even with minor changes the chemicals flow from one direction to another sending signals of pain or pleasure...so pain and pleasure are form a curved graph...staircase curve...flat at lower and upper limit and positively corelated in the middloe section

Writing about mundane things

someone suggests that writing about mundane things should be easy as 90% of life is spent in....er... mundane things...i tend to disgree..cos for writing u must have a brainwave...an idea on which you can write...now irrespective of the amount of time one spends in mundane things..by definition they shud be bereft of nething interesting...so the only brainwave or brainfade..(however u like it) about mundane things can be how boring it can be or how very routine...but u can drum up the same funda everytime...even if no1 reads u must believe that what u write is readable and people will appreciate it if only they could be on the same wavelength....

neway me being from Patna,bihar......feeling smwht optimistiv cos of the change in political leadership in bihar..Nitish kumar seems a man of integrity and acumen and if he gets lucky..things may well change for the better....

Fame gurukul

When i was home for three daus last week, i was introduced to this show by a cousin(adaptation of INXS)....there i found this chap who is universally recognized as clearly the least talented singer but has been saved by the audience for the last 5 rounds...now the reason could be that...he is somewhat smart looking than the others and the public dont recognize that the show is for finding singing talent....and not performers.. However this brought to my memeory the famous HBR article arguing that managers prefer to work with lovable fools rather than competent jerks....so rather than saying that public doesnt recognise the true purpose of the show...i think lovability is a criterion in almost all selection decisions....that may to some degree explain the good summer placements of all the gud looking girls in our batch..(Male Lust factor is the generally accepted funda)...so talent doesnt always wins....
Ofcourse as the article said...everyone loves to work with a person who is both competent and lovable...so mr. qazi taukeer, best of luck..but i dont think u will succeed..the gap in talent is way too much for your charm.

lets start something special

How do i start on something really good, do i dive headlong or do i think how to best go about it, the second option is apparently obvious but if you know me, it could be the sign of procastrinating...cos obviously something good requires that extra bit of effort for which you have to be in the zone or in the groove...whatever....so wouldnt by waiting and exploring the best way to go about it..i am lessening the chances of mine being in the zone....

Something special

First Few days at a job

You learn a lot, most of the preconceived notions go for a toss. your boss is not as bad as you thought, you need not work as hard as it is generally made out, but things are really not as benign as they were in college, the stakes are higher.....You think about things you didnt even conceived of in the college....

~This is very general but needs to be so as i am here after a looong time. Hopefully will write some more in the evening.
