Stick to the Plan!!!

September 17, 2011 in Featured, fire talks

We all know that how much it is important to plan about anything that we do…

In my last post I have already discussed with you about all the experiences I have been through and am still moving deeper into the consecutive phases of enlightenment, consciousness, awareness, selfness and I will keep telling you about it as I’ll move more into it…

Jobs, Campus Placements or Higher Studies – Information That You Could Really Do With

May 15, 2010 in fire talks, Jobs

Final Semester is one of the most crucial phases for any student when every one of us are preparing for Campus Placements and Technical Interviews.

Even though my college has accreditation with TCS (Tata Consultancy Services) I never joined it with the aim of getting recruited through Campus Placements. Right now I am just left with 35 more days to complete my Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science and Technology when I decided to post this article regarding my views on Campus Placements and how to decide your initial path just after your Graduation.

I have divided the students into mainly four classes in their Final Semester of Engineering:

Class I- Recruited in Campus Placements and have decided to join the company.
Class II – Recruited but have decided to go for higher education.
Class III- Not recruited and decided to start hunting for Jobs right after their college life.
Class IV- Not recruited and decided to go for some higher studies or specialization courses.

Information Inundation

September 19, 2009 in Featured, leisure, Welcome to kshitijsharma.com

Six Pixels of Separation (Mitch Joel) has nothing in it, which a 17 years teenager doesn’t know but the book is thought provoking for any one who is older than 33 years old.

Remember 70s… Hippie Culture! You know the cause?

Abundance. That’s it. Rich went berserk and started looking peace in poverty, culture, religion, east, drugs, and alcohol.

Today is my Birthday!

September 15, 2009 in fun

I think everyone remembers their birthdays for precious gifts, parties or having good time with friends and family, otherwise all birthdays are unbirthdays

Celebrating at Bargi Dam with Suketu and Harish

An unbirthday (originally written un-birthday) is an event that can be celebrated on any day that is not the person’s birthday. There is proper definition of unbirthday in Wikipedia though it is unlikely that you will find this term in dictionary.

I can have 364 unbirthdays therefore it is much more profitable to celebrate these days.

Are you looking for the right dung ?

September 12, 2009 in Featured, fire talks, leisure

I was surprised to learnt while watching Oprah Show that those Americans who lost their houses during this recession missed shower and bath of their houses most.

looking for right dung
What ever is most important is either free or doesn’t cost too much, fresh air, a good view, satisfaction of simple meal, laughter, smile and just a shower are some of the few things.

So, why do we struggle to do difficult things, get in to the impossible situations and demand unreasonable results? There are many answers but most likely ones are comparative mindset and high expectations. We humans are not the only ones who do the impossible tasks. There are insects that carry 100 times more weight of their body mass and some tiny dung beetles travel 10 miles in search of right dung.

Strengths and Weaknesses

September 11, 2009 in fire talks, leisure

An old American saying:

A needle fell into the forest. An eagle sees it, a deer hears it and a bear smells it.

Now a dumb human being thinks an eagle has weaknesses of not hearing and smelling well. A dear has no qualities for looking hard and to smell better and poor Bear is purely misfit to see and hear.

We all are concentrating our energies to correct and improve our weaknesses and just ignoring and under utilizing our strengths.

I know, no matter how hard I study English Literature I will never be a good writer but if I study Physics only one tenth of time I study English I may do some miracle.

A Scoff

September 8, 2009 in fun, leisure

In all probability you have heard this one, but at the expense of repetition let me tell you once again:

A wise man while travelling through a jungle saw a young man sleeping under a tree.
Hey! Wake up and do something. Young man rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked- what?
Do something worthwhile, work why are you sleeping at this hour?
What will happen if I work, asked the young man?
Well… if you work hard enough you can have a house, a car, loving family and what not replied the wise man.
Then what will happen? Asked the young man.
Then you can have good time and you can relax.
So, what do you think I am doing now? I am having good time and I am, relaxing. Said the young man.

We humans have lot in common with animals; we want to leave our mark/scent on everywhere we pass by.

Arise! And change the world!
Make the difference!
Learn!
Be a go getter
Be richest!
Be wisest
Be smartest
Be famous (infamous)
…Best of all-learn to unlearn

Evolution of Resolutions

January 3, 2009 in fun

This article is dedicated to all those who make New Year resolutions and later or sooner realise the futility of such resolutions. Some believe that your destiny is defined and yet some think you can design it. It’s a redundant problem in mathematical lingo. However, one can take solace in the situation that one is designing his/her destiny while opposite may be true. I am afraid, there is no way to find it out.

“Rule Your Mind or it will Rule You”: Horace

Even if you rule your mind, it dictates you to rule it. In all best situations in life there is a paradox.

If this would have happened in:

Japan:       All politicians would have done Hara-kiri.
America:  Perpetrator’s country would have been obliterated.
Britain:     Each and every Muslim would be put under a 24 hours scanner.
Russia:     You know what has happened in Chechnya after Beslan.

Trends of The Conceptual Age

October 25, 2008 in leisure

I just finished listening to The Whole New Mind (Audible) and watched some of the comics.
Listening to books, watching comics and storybooks (you watch them!) are not uncommon trends these days. Subscribe to trend central you will be updated every now and then about new trends in this world.
When my friend Harry’s father died, his most interesting inheritance was an envelope. (Does it remind you of The Ultimate Gift)? I don’t really know what was in that envelope, but Harry told me that it contains URL of some websites and few codes. Intellectual Property Rights have come a long way.
We will see something very new in the coming years. We are very lucky that we are able to see this metamorphism while we still have our own cognitive abilities.

  1. Death of the print media. I think print media have already started its last journey with the arrival of Amazon Kindle and Sony’s Reader.
  2. New ways to tell stories. I was totally immersed when I read my first Google map enabled story. “The 21 Steps”.
  3. There are new ways to learn. I am wrong here; it should be new ways to un-learn.
  4. Contrary to Mr. Dan Pink’s (author of The Whole New Mind) assumption about the next conceptual age will not belong to R-minded (R= Right) people but will be dominated by R- minded logicians/analysts/mathematicians/statisticians.
    These people will fuse mathematical equations in to an artwork.
  5. Prefer buying Feric, instead of expensive artworks.
  6. Don’t watch Wimbledon on your PC/Mac only, do the stress analysis of Roger’s knee joint or find out how much more swing was needed to make that volley unreachable for Nadal.
