Life At the Crossroads

It has been four months since last post. (BTW Who cares? ) This one is going to be the ramblings of a frustrated mind. Beware! 

There comes a phase in your life when you become unnecessarily philosophical, you unnecesarily worry about things which are not under your control and you get trapped into unnecessary confusions. I am going through the same right now.  Desperately hoping this brings out something good for me.  

Much of what has happened in my life till now has just happened without my knowledge. But now I want to tek control. For last month or so, I wake up with this very concern in mind and sleep without doing anything to address the same. 

Fundamentally there is something wrong somewhere and I got to find it out. Yesterday one usless professor gave us one excercise of writing down how does one spend his day. It was an eye opener for many of us. I spend only 10% of my time in doing things which might add value to my self. Rest 90% time is spent doing NVAs (Non Value-adding Activities). It is not that I was unaware of this but writing down the same made it so obvious. This is an excercise worth doing. It will certainly help if done seriously.

Time to stop here itself. 

P.S. As I type one more blast rocked the nation, save yourself if you can. :-(
