A Phone Call to the One in My Dream

Image
Hey. Yesterday, something strange happened in my dream. Let’s go through my dream to get an idea of what it was like. Now, you are in my dream. After seeing a social media post of my friend Rupesh, Me: It has been a long time since I have not called Rupesh. I should call him now. Where is my phone? Oh. Here it is. Oh my God! I don’t have his number on this phone. I should check his number on my older phone. Then, I called him. The phone rings. After a few phone rings, someone receives my call. Someone: Hello, who’s speaking? Me: Hello, I am Abhi. Is it Rupesh’s number? Someone: I am sorry. I am not Rupesh. Me: I am very sorry. I think I have dialed the wrong number. Someone: Don’t be sorry. I am not Rupesh but it is definitely not a wrong one. Me: What? I didn’t understand what you just said. Do I know you?

Some Things in His Backpack

Image
  One guy after putting some things into his backpack moved ahead on a street. The street wasn’t crowded very much but it wasn’t lonely as well. While walking on the street, the backpack guy reached the location of a bus stop and stopped there. At that time at the bus stop, a bus having a lot of people going towards their destinations arrived, and around 4-5 people got out of the bus. One lady and one guy among those people kept walking after getting out of the bus and the others remained there at the bus stop. The backpack guy went towards a guy who was standing at the bus stop wearing a dark blue formal shirt and black pants. Backpack guy: Hi. Blue shirt guy: Hello. Backpack guy: Are you waiting for someone to pick you up from here? Blue shirt guy: Yes, I am waiting for another bus that would take me to my place.

It is all About Willpower

Image
Introduction What are the things needed for completing a work successfully?The answers to this question would be like the following. Some would say hard-work, some would say luck, presence of mind, curiosity, speed, talent, patience, etc. But all these things are of no use if there is no 'will' to do the required work. Explaining About Willpower Through our Daily Life Stuff Doing a work without a will is like eating something you don’t want to eat or eating when you are not hungry. And if you do eat when you are not hungry then it doesn't feel like eating the way it should be. Let us take an example of a car which has an auto-driving mode, good mileage, good shock absorbing facility, enough space for storing stuff and seating space for enough people. However, the value of all these features would be zero if there is no fuel. So, in our case,   will   acts as fuel for doing a work successfully.

Everyone is Different from the others for a Reason

Image
In my childhood, after seeing my sad face, my mother used to say, “God has given equal abilities to everyone, we should never feel lesser than anyone.” Then, I used to believe that and smile back to my mother. But now, I think that the Almighty has made all of us different from others so that we can make our own identity different from others and the difference comes from lots of stuff. So that we don’t look like a copy or replica of others. Usually, we don’t get this and try to do blindly what others are doing without knowing ourselves properly. Everybody begins his/her life in different surroundings.   A person gets his/her qualities from the surroundings where he/she spends his her time. An Example of how Rohan and his life can be different from others Let’s have a look at this scenario. There is a boy named Rohan. Both of his parents are working. Everybody knows the amount of responsibilities parents   have on their shoulders as both of their parents work...

The Target set for the Relationship

Image
Kashish, Rohan, and Rahul were hanging out at Rahul’s place. Kashish: Are you scared? Rohan: Scared? Me? Yeah. A little bit. Kashish: You should be scared as in the previous meeting you had very much opened your mind. Rohan: But, what’s wrong in having an open mind? Kashish (with a little anger towards Rohan): Nothing is wrong with your open-mind. The things which are really wrong are the things which you had said to my father that day. Rohan (with a shocking reaction to what Kashish said, the reaction had a little bit anger too): Oh my God. Are you serious? Never in my life, I have spoken any bad words to or for your father. Kashish (continuing her anger): I am not talking about that, you idiot. It’s about…………… Flashback At Kashish’s home, Kashish’s Father (to Rohan): I have no problem with you two being in a relationship and I don’t mind that she is earning more than you, but, you should earn a certain amount and know the art of saving to ...

Friendship in Your Life

Image
Do you remember the days when you were a kid? There was someone with whom you used to be very happy. He or she might be your mother, brother, sister or anyone else. Do you know what they are called? They are called friends. There is a saying that “a friend in need is a friend indeed”, however, the simple definition of a friend is anyone with whom you feel comfortable with, feel relieved and share your thoughts freely with. Friends are those with whom you love spending time, whether the time is good or bad. Having friends in your life is like a journey. This journey starts right after we get born. In this early phase of our life, the family members who take care of us are our friends, like our parents, grandparents, uncle, aunt, etc. When we grow little older, we get to meet more and new people, especially of our age groups. Then we get close to them, we get fond of each other. We play, see TV, and most importantly, enjoy with each other. Then, we grow up to the age of going...

Those were the days of the year 2010 , Vijay had only one exam left of his 10 th Board Examinations. The last exam was scheduled to be on the next day. He had the books and notebooks ahead of him, related to the subject he had exam of. His eyes were on the pages of the books & notebooks, and he was thinking about how to answer what kind of questions, what kind of questions he should answer first, had he read enough to get good marks in the exam, and how his life was going to be after the exam. He had a little bit of nervousness about the exam and a lot of excitement about the exam getting over. One of the reasons for his excitement was also that the results were going to be announced after around 2 months unlike in the cases of other final exams he had appeared from the beginning of his school days till class- ix, where the results used to get announced within 10 days of the last exam. The Exams got Over Finally, Vijay’s exams were over. That time, how good or bad his e...

Start From The Basics, Start Easy

Image
When you have a work in hand, always start from the basics. Complete the basic, smaller and easier parts of the work, first. If you do so, then you feel fresher, positive and confident to do the rest  of the work. Practically, you can examine that  the people who work out the basic, easier and smaller parts initially, complete the work more successfully than the ones who do not do the same. So, start from the basics and start easy.

I liked Your Work but...

Image
Someone: Please have a seat. Other one: Thank you. Someone: I read your email and the things which were with the same. Those were nice. I liked your work but I am having a tough time figuring out how to use them, how to make those work in benefits of us and yours. Other one: I am very glad that you liked my work, but you don’t have to have a headache of how to use those, you can see those as samples and I can create something fresh, I can create many fresh things. Since, you have gone through those pieces of mine then you must have known my abilities, how is my knowledge and what I am capable of creating or doing. So, you don’t have to use my works, you can use my abilities and knowledge which made those works possible. Someone: But don’t you think the abilities you have, you can work with us, you don’t have to work for us. Other one: I didn’t understand, aren’t those the same things? Someone: It’s your choice.

I Feel Good in The Morning

Image
I am habituated with waking up early in the morning Since my childhood, I am habituated with waking up early in the morning. As a child, I was used to be woken up by my mother early in the morning as I had to reach the school before 7:25 AM then as per the rules. So, I got this habit of waking up early, from my mother. Using the Alarm Clock When I had reached the 6 th grade, I did not need my mother to wake me up but I used an alarm clock instead of doing the same. As the time was passing, I was getting used to waking up near the alarm-clock time. I was so getting used to it that I started waking up on holidays as well but without the alarm clock. In the present time, I don’t need an alarm clock to wake up early in the morning, and I leave my bed before the Sunrise. I only use the alarm clock if I have any important works to do that day or if the day itself is an important one. There are some days on which I had woken up after the Sun had risen up. The reason for t...
