Managament-What does it really mean!!

         Lots of people come up with aspirations of trying and doing different things when they realize an MBA in an IIM.Few people think of exploring various things and doing the best, suiting to them.Some people have a preconceived idea of what they want to do and take all chances to do the same.For some people , money is the most important motivating factor and intend to do specialization in the field which gives the best rewards.Some people feel for their passion and try to live up to it.All this leads to a rat race of grades and placements.

       A lots of people are not only concerned about their grades but also make sure that the grades of the rest are not good enough compared to them.A few instances I have noticed made me feel so pity about them.

       A notion by a classmate of mine who says that grades are proportional to the intelligence you have and hence I am in race for grades makes me pity about him.

       I actually have a confusion.Should I pity for the people who are so concerned about their grades.Should I pity about the people who believe in the thought that intelligence is reflected by grades?Should I pity myself for being lackadaisical  and boasting about importance of learning than grades?

       Eventually  two of the three kinds would be idiots and one will be intelligent.But who will it be  and how fair would it be ?

      Another food for thought is how relevant MBA is making you realize your area of interest.With the rat race all over and everybody in one or the other way trying to play all the strategies of game theory , how much is each  individual's choice acknowledged.Here the comparison of Indian b-schools and the quality of education and learning they intend to inculcate in comparison with the global b-schools also comes into picture.

      Is two years a good enough time to learn all the nuances of management?

      To my knowledge, the institutions focus more on teaching about how to manage things rather than learning? Is this justified ? Is all the job of them to  make us a manager  right? Is there any focus on creating things rather than managing things?

      India needs more creators rather than managers.Hence the focus of education should be for creating things.This poses another question of introducing degrees which teaches us both technical and managerial skills.

       I am reminded of Ayn rand's Atlas Shrugged which emphasizes the importance of creators.In the preface of it , there is a beautiful quote which says World lies in the hands of creators and they are responsible  to move the society forward.

      My confusion still prevails and I have been trying to find answers for all these questions and many more since I entered into masters of Management.

World!!

The world is sunk in illusion,so am I,
The world is wretched,so am I,
The world needs a solution,so do I,
World is a rotten place,Can we deny??


Everybody has a Satan in him, so do I,
Everybody has a God in him ,so do I,
The point is how more we are one of them,
and how much we want one of them to die.


Life is reflection of what we think,
Its about living every breath and fly,
Its not a closed box to live in,
We get into a closed box only when we die.


Time heals all the worries and fears,
it teaches all the lessons before we die,
live and learn from life,
so that to the world, you bid a meaningful goodbye.

Change!!

I am the thought,

I am the action,

I am the change,

I am the motion.

Delved into the deep slumber,

I was completely lost,

a thought then strike me,

but I struggled to fought.

I started to act,

to make a strong impact,

tumbled here and there,

eventually learnt to stand.

My act became my habit,

to an extent of emotion,

I need to bring change,

I believed this with conviction.

I started to convince,

make the people around me to listen,

I took a lot of time,

but i succeeded in my mission. 

PS : I tried to explain the first four simple lines in the rest of the poem. I would be happy if anybody would have understood the effort without reading the postscript :)

Entrepreneurs :)

        Entrepreneurship seems to be the buzzword everywhere.Every second there has been an idea thought of, every minute there has implementation of the same, every hour there is company and entrepreneur arising of the idea.

        In olden days, the intent to be huge was important rather than the idea as the competition was lesser and few entrepreneurs made it really big.DhiruBhai Ambani, Shiv Nadar, Narayan Murthy belonged to the league who made fortunes with the spirit and idea rather than money behind it.

       With course of time, formal courses were introduced to inculcate and promote the idea of business and entrepreneurship.The advent and rapid growth of technology opened a great pavement for different ideas and implementing them.The competition went stiffer and patenting those ideas became the way to make one's idea to himself.The competition is on a high rise now and any loophole in the execution of the idea is leading to its utter failure.The redundancy in the idea can sometimes be the reason of its failure.

      To all the wannabe entrepreneurs , just be open to ideas. Right from a pan-shop you have a cigarette at,  to the office you work at, there are lots of ideas. The key is to look into the feasibility and impact of the idea.I don't need to quote examples, but redbus.in,dotcabs and many other ideas were the result of keeping the eye open.

      I intend to be one of the same wannabe and hope I implement at least one idea.

PS : MBA is not a prerequisite to an entrepreneur. My friends have been entrepreneurs without any MBA and they are doing good. The key is they are still fighting to make it big.There ventures are:

F***

I am sorry , but really got pissed after reading this article.

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/12-yr-old-boy-pushes-girlfriend-to-death/articleshow/8121560.cms

I can't segregate myself by saying it as hastiness of younger generation as I am a part of it.(Atleast I believe so!!). But this article makes me think a lot. Its heights of irresponsibility, immaturity and lack of humanity.

How degraded would be the thought process of the guy , who got vexed by the girl and in course of time, planned to kill her.

Sometimes i feel that I was lucky considering that I wasn't the guy who had a mobile from the age of  10, I wasn't part of the kids who got PSP's in their class-3 .I consider myself lucky that I didn't see any English action flick during my school till 8th.These are responsible to a good extent for illness of the mind.I don't intend to point that movies or anything are bad here, but more is it with the child who has less thinking or analysis quotient and he tries to involve the same emotions that he felt or showed during the movie he  watched or the game he played.

Its an over awareness  which is working negatively.Its horrendous that the boy had such a thoughts at an age of 12 and more than that, he was not even hesitant to implement the same thoughts.

I hope this article hits strong to all the parents, and they do not  let loose their child in the process to make him oversmart.

TIME :|

For the first time after months, I feel time should run faster. With work being heavy at office, and my master of business administration awaiting, I don't feel like working. I feel like, exploring the new dimensions. Hope time runs faster and makes my life easier, and I hope, I explore the things I really want to.

Can we change???!!!!!!!

I have seen an instance today  where anybody powerful cannot reform or change the things around him.Does system need to change or do we to?? I have been to place where skin is sold and figuratively employment is generated. To elaborate on this fact, a system more robust than a revenue generated administrative service exists, where a penny is even accountable.Its a robust industry of more than 1000 crore where people satiate their desires, where queue larger than a root level  ration card queue exists. So its finally on to the people, that is we, who either encourage it or discourage it.I am very sure that an IAS would loose his life , if he intend to change things around him. But would that discourage the people around him who intend to make the change.


      Its an incident which happened at a well known area in Delhi(110006, reminds me of the movie Delhi-6) where human values do not exist and materialistic and libidinous values are satiated. The expected thing with the kind of political system we have around is, nobody will take an effort to change it and if he/she intends to change it, he/she will be no more.


     One more considerable fact i have noticed at the place is , it comprises of around  70% of Nepalese ,which is being heavily contributed by the migration factor, which needs to be strongly addressed.
  
    The whole point lies in the fact that , there are lots of thoughts around and too less action. We need to introspect on the fact that do system need to change or  we, the people, who belong to the system, need to change to bring in the change in the system.

MBA Interviews :)

a month of travelling , 
boasting about myself, 
in  an expectation that,
I will be adopted!!!

Some ask what,
some ask why,
some ask when,
I know? , I have to lie?


Thermodynamics 2nd law,
Laplace transform applications,
telecom minister Raja,
Has been reason for many people rejections.


Are ambani's made/Manufactured at (b)skools,
Or are we just another million fools,
Whatever be the reason,
the packages are at which everyone drools.


I want to enter,
with an intention to clean the mess,
and I come out ,
to be dumped into another mess.


PS: to all B-school aspirants trying to geared for B-school Interviews :)

Transform??

Of  late I see everyone defining life in their perspective.I smile and sometimes giggle at them.Its not that i am more rational or smarter than them, but the moment i see someone quoting on life, I feel it funny.There is a paradox here . I once was obsessed with word "lyfe". But now I feel it funny.Somebody talking philosophical sounds funny to me.Earlier, I was obsessed with the same .


Some sort of mental transformation happening around .Its for the good though. It might help in becoming more objective. Anyways, iam  doing it  not out of selfishness towards becoming objective , but rather, i guess its happening sub-conciously.It feels good to blog after a long time :)

C- Day

Its now or Never. Mother it , As You have never done before :)

Money,money,money :)

Money,money , money
money is the honey.
rich man's funny,
because he has got money.

Money, money , money
money is the honey.
Poor man's agony,
life ending in penny.

poor man's struggle,
to make the ends meet,
rich man's pursual,
to throw a big party to friends indeed.

Poor man's reverie,
to send his children to school,
rich man's fancy,
to buy a country house with a theatre & a large swimming pool.

Poor man's life,
a sum of vexation, and a bit of hope.
rich man's life,
a sum of alcohol,women and dope.

Poor man's death,
a great treat to vultures,
rich man's death,
celebration of death perseveres.

Money,money , money
money is the honey.
rich man's funny,
because he has got money.

Money, money , money
money is the honey.
Poor man's agony,
life ending in penny.

FACT

I hate myself for the things I can't restrain :(

True Love :)

Its been a long time since I met Ajay and I was very happy for meeting him after college. He completed his Masters at MIT after his graduation from JNTU. We met at our home and after he refreshed , we went to Taj to sip some beer. I called Shreya too and she was on her way to Taj.


I mentioned about me getting married to Shreya , the coming month and he was puzzled.He got very curious about how I and Shreya got commited to each other.As I got high of the beer, It reminded me of the most Romantic conversation with her.


"love you till my breathe lasts and after it too", I said.
" love you till my last breath and after it too", Said Shreya.



As you know, we all met her during college days but my feelings for her happened after our graduation. I proposed her . She took a bit of time , and then accepted me.Its been wonderful three years now,and I have been in a great feeling called love.Shreya's parents and my parents are happy for our marriage and Life all seems like the most grateful thing I can have.

We were about to order another beer and Shreya came.We all had a great time talking about college and sipping the beer.It was 10.30 in the night, and Shreya insisted me to wind it up as she was getting late. We finished in 10 minutes and I left with Ajay to my home, while shreya left to her home.It was raining heavily outside.I and Ajay waited for a while, as we came on bike. Shreya insisted that she would drop us home but I said we will manage it ,as her home was around an hour away fom Taj.

In around 15 minutes we reached home. Suddenly Ajay received a call and he said that Shreya had a small accident. We reached hospital, and things around me became dizzy and I fainted.


I was shifted to a ward in an hospital and when I woke up, I asked Ajay about Shreya. He said she is fine and will be discharged tomorrow.I was still curious about her and ran to her ward.I went to doctor, and he said she is in coma , and due to strong hit on her head, It has strongly disturbed her neural activity. She has to be fed, cleaned, for the lifetime.I lost the whole world in front of me.
It has been three months I have been with Shreya after the accident, and I fed , bathed, cleaned and did everything for her.
One day Shreya's parents came to me, and said that they were grateful for my love on shreya, but insisted me that life has to move on. They asked to marry somebody else and assured me that they will take a good care of her. I almost instantly said no, and said I am ready to live with Shreya for my whole life, no matter how shreya is.
Its been 6 years now after the accident, and I am still in love with Shreya. I feed her, bathe her, comb her hair, clean if she is drooling,take her out to places,talk to her, tell about how our love though she cannot comprehend it now,and most importantly still love her, in the hope that someday, she will recover back to normal and my life will be wonderful.

PS: Inspired by a video called "True love" on youtube.

Good and Bad :)

I always try to find , what can be defined good and what can be defined bad.I have been trying to come to a conclusion, but it is very hard to come to one. But as per my retrospection, I have come upon few postulates.


1. Anything which you try to resist upon , but you still tend to do, can be defined bad.
for example: I try to resist from alcohol and smoking, but still haven't been able to take a complete control on it. I promise myself not to get drunk again, but I do it again. This act or habit of mine can be defined bad.


2. Coming to define, what is good, It is anything you don't resist yourself to do, and you do it, is Good. An Intensified Good often evolves into passion.
For example, I love reading, and I don't try to resist it, and sometimes even after I get drunk, i feel like doing it.
Finally , I want to conclude it with four magical lines of Robert frost, which has an analogy with good and bad.


The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Dark to Bright :)

I had just woke up,
looked around for light,
Couldn't track where was I,
Stuck in absolute darkness.


Then there was some light,
at a place very distant,
I tried making sense of the sound,
But it was very feeble.


I tried a bit harder,
to make sense of the sound,
and heard a male and a female,
curiously discussing upon.

I heard them discussing about life,
heard about good times and bad,
I heard them discussing future,

and the times they were happy and sad.


Suddenly world started making sense,
and i discovered that i was in my mother's womb,
the people discussing my future were,
my great father and my sweet mom.

PS: It was a song written by Telugu actor sai kumar.

Motivating Myself :)

one last time,Seriously one last time.
Enough is enough,
lets retaliate, conquer.
Need to do solid hard work,
need to come on to the top.

Need to be the best.
Show what i have.
like a wounded lion,
need to come back,
come back very very strong.

crack mocks like i have never done.
Toil like I have never done.
Enough of High,the spark would die,
If i go back to high.
Need to buck up,
Wake up Arvind.

perfection is the word,
I should have the choice,
destiny should not be by chance,
I should be able to kick,
I should be able to kiss.

I am definitely not what it reflects,
I know, i have potential to touch the zenith,
but illusions are dragging me down,
I don't want to be a clown,

Master all, not even jack of one.
It can be done.
All i need to show is ,
courage and determination.

PS: just wrote to motivate me :)

WTF

Pissed off.
I am screwed.
Why am i going through hell.
Should i really bother about it.
I really don't care, but,
Why am i still bothered about it,
Alcohol is the best remedy to it !!!!!!,
I am back in the trap,but i know,
I would soon be out of it .
Where is lyfe leading to,
I am really clueless about it,
I have an idea about it,
but i anticipate it to be different,
because its not lyfe,
If its expected ,
Hope is the cause,
Driving the world,
Overcoming difficulties,
acheiving impossibilities,
Being Content.

PS: Random thoughts :)

Betrayal

Why do i shed tear,
When i know you cannot be near,
You wouldn't come to my life again,
Oh my dear, Oh my dear.


I know I have been betrayed,
banal were the moments which together we lived,
All the beautiful things were just faked,
I don't want to live, I want to be dead.


You are sole cause of my dejection,
Who moved me to heights of frustration,
I now regret for our relation,
Even if i ask you,you don't have any explanation.


All I do is now cry and cry,
I take drugs, Hallucinate , to substitute your high,
I don't have anything left,
I just want to die, I just want to die.


Though betrayed , I still love you,
You are my insanity,I want you,
You are the only one, Without you,
There is nothing that I can do



PS: Just an effort or try to understand the feelings of person who had a love failure :)

Great , Greater, Greatest :)

A sequel to my last blogpost.

An alcoholic high this time, though, not the marijuana. :)

Still in search of, what does it take to be great?

I am actually puzzled about how did Ayn rand had her thoughts a century back , which she published in her books!

We still get mesmerized by her books.

How did those thoughts come to her mind!!!

Did she encountered them practically or she saw it through her experience or she was one of the gifted souls.

I regret taking birth a hundred years later.

Its not about just Ayn Rand, it about a lot of people who started simple and ended up so great, so great, that they are a subject of talk till now.

I am talking about Aristotle, Socrates, Albert Einstien, Stephen Hawking, Ayn Rand, and a lot more till now.

What did they have and how did they evolve to get better and better, better than the best, not only of their centuries but the centuries ahead too, till the centuries which had those great people as their benchmark!!!

Will continue the subject in my next one . :)

LYFE....makes sense????

Sometimes I feel i will wrap and control the whole world on my fingers.My insatiable desires would be at my feet. I would make a difference. I have something in myself which separates me from the crowd.

Very next second , I feel very ordinary about myself, not making any f***** difference, involved in my own narrow world, with my dead monotonous lyfe.

What does it take to be great.?

I am still in search of it.

Sometimes if i feel the existence of God, i wonder how did he invent marijuana, which later was discovered by man!!!

Emotions fly from the positive side to negative and so is the Lyfe.

I am seriously clueless about what sentences my mind really wants my fingers to type and what exactly is being typed!!!

All i know is , i want to beat this world, the successful people , and want to leave them far behind .

PS: marijuana at its peak, forced me :)
