Hardwork always leads to Success!

Hello Friends,


Today, I write this article because someone has inspired me to write this one. That person is the one whom I really respect a lot, and I was told that it could become a source of inspiration for many as well as people would understand that there is no substitute to hard-work and are no shortcuts in reducing weight.


Yes my friends, this article is on reducing weight, which I recently did -- I reduced 12 Kg (26.45 Pounds) -- in a time period of 6.5 months -- since Oct 15th 2011.


Let me brief you how I started. Well, actually on 14th Oct 2011, I got detected for High Thyroid and High Cholesterol. I was really taken aback, was sad, obviously didn't let my feelings get expressed on my family -- for whom it was a massive blow, my grandma, my mother, my daddy, my sister, who literally had started crying when they saw the reports -- and I was the one smiling at them, saying don't worry, its a temporary one, all this will get cured. I had a belief, that if I put some real effort I can do it -- Anyone who puts it, does it, so why not me? As some one has rightly said --Belief in oneself is one of the most important bricks in building any successful venture. And this time, I had to take some sure-shot steps to reduce weight and get the cholesterol and thyroid in control.


Now, believe me, I have not been a perfect human being to know everything, and to do everything the right way! I am still learning, from the various experiences that life gives me. So previously, even I had tried many shortcuts to reducing weights, obviously, was never serious, but tried some vague ideas and some things that I read on internet and some as insisted by my dear friends -- like dieting, gyming, etc. -- and the result was Nothing. Reason again maybe because I was not serious towards it, or maybe because they were shortcuts or maybe because they lacked consistency.


But this time, I was pretty sure I gotto do it at any cost. I think that's why its rightly said -- Necessity is the mother of Invention. I gotto know the actual way or say the real path that let to reducing my weight, Pheew!! Finally!  In the beginning, I started slow walking, then Brisk walking, then jogging and then brisk walking and running (sprint) -- for a distance of around 7.5 to 8 KM (around 5 Miles). Next, after time period of around 3 months of doing this, I bought a Bicycle, and traveled 25 KM daily, which I continued for 2 Months. And currently, I do both -- Cycling as well as Brisk walking -- Cycling around 18 KM and Brisk Walking 4 KM on daily basis.
I have been consistent this time, and everytime I stand on weighing machine, I get down cheerfully getting to know that I have lost something. And I think -- I may be wrong but that's what I think -- what helped me reduce weight this time was punctuality.


So why did I write this article? Just to boast about my success?


No friends, you may surely feel it boastful till now, but the prime intention of this article was to tell you all, that THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE TO HARDWORK -- THERE NEVER WAS! And if you are keen on reducing weight, believe this and start working the basic way.
You may surely reduce by going to a Gym, but you can also do it the basic way -- Walking, Jogging, Running, Cycling -- and as such exercising in Natural Environment is always good, plus you can save money!


I have seen many friends, literally starving to reduce weight, get green tea and what not. They search for all the shortcuts, and try them all -- Well I was one such previously, so I won't blame you!
But I think, sometimes, some things happen in life that make you serious towards something, I would really like to thank that blood report that said I had high thyroid and high cholesterol -- which helped me achieve this!


To all my Dear Friends -- Please stop trying and thinking and start working!!! As Action is the foundational key to all Success!


This is the truth of life, for anything that comes your way, not just reducing weight. Reducing weight is just taken as an example of my life. But actually, You give that thing, that work your 100% and you are sure to get results out of it! Also, I while discussing with some of my friends, they say that not hardwork, but smart work leads to success -- I would like to say, to know the way to work smart, you need to understand the work first, which you can know by toiling hard, and get to know what it is and then act smartly -- Hope I am right.. 






Cheers,
Happy Hardworking!

A Cancelled Plan actually must say A Postponed Plan and Some Broken Hearts!

Hey Friends,

This article is an incident about yesterday.

I was to go for a dinner with my best pals. We made this plan just a day before and all of us were so exited about this! But since morning I wasn't well. I had some stomach problems.
Still, I didn't tell anyone about this and kept on for an affirmative for the plan. In any case, I didn't wanna cancel the plan because of me. I didn't wanna cancel the plan because of me.
(I am neither trying to praise or showoff by making this statement, but I wanna explain what type of a person I am.. Whenever there is something, wherein I am a part of it, I try to give my 100%  and be there come what may. I am always in for my friends, try to be with them whenever they need me, if its work, I make sure I am in there till it completed successfully, if its family, it actually becomes my duty and make sure I am there. In any case, I never like that it gets affected because of me. I don't know why, but it feels pathetic and feels as if I am guilty if I am unable to do. But sometimes, some situations aren't in your control -- some situations demand more importance than some others and you need to cancel or do away with one.)
 Finally, after going to Latrine for the third time during the day in office, I told one of my friends about it -- that I got some stomach problems, and don't tell anyone but I may either drop out or come but won't eat.
She told me that its not important to eat! And we go some other day!(obviously, I understand, what was more important was enjoying together, and I surely won't have if I had gone yesterday, I wasn't well!)

And hence, we postponed the plan. But from that moment, as I just told you how I feel when such a thing happens -- as if I am the culprit and was responsible for spoiling their moods.

The bad feeling, kept on pinching me long (and it still is pinching me!), and I decided that we go come what may!!
But the damage was already done... Everyone was already upset.. I think my decision of telling that I wasn't well did it.

I am very sure they understood my position and that's why they took the decision of postponing it, and they wanted that we go when all are 100% so that all enjoy!!

But how do I explain how bad I feel about it...

In case you refer to this article anytime in future, I am sorry guys!!
I am extremely sorry.. Please forgive me for spoiling our plans and your moods!

Enjoy your game and chase your dreams, because ultimately dreams do come true!

Hello Friends,

Remember this statement?
Yes, you are right! It was spoken by the God of Cricket Sachin Tendulkar, on the day he scored his 100th 100.

Every great personality has a life from which we can learn if we want. May it be Sachin Tendulkar, may it be Aamir Khan or anyone.

And What does their life teach you?
Its not the end result that matters, its the path followed to achieve it, the hardships and obstacles faced and the way in which the person bounced back after failure that matters!


Like in case of Sachin Tendulkar, if you read more about him, there are great writers like Harsha Bhogle who have spoken/written about him, that he started his career at the age of 16 and he is still playing.
So what has it been that has kept him going?
Talent? --Nope!
Its the Passion to Perform! Its the Desire, the his Dreams!!

And I talked about what all can we learn from great successful personalities is always dream! Set them as your goals, and make an effort to achieve it!
We must never forget that why all great personalities succeed -- is because they do what they do what  they love to do.. May it be anything, sports, research, -- anything!

Always make your dream your goal of life and work passionately towards it. You may not know when your dreams would come true, but they surely will!

Even sachin said, he had the dream of bringing a World Cup home, which he/they could achieve after 22 Years!

22 Years is not a small time, but what is more important is he/they did it!

So always chase your dreams, Passionately!!
Cheers Pals!

A Special Friend that I met along the way of Life!

Hello Friends,

This article is for my cute little friend and a special one for sure.. Miss B!

Oh yes, as always, I will not mention the name directly.. You may find her name somewhere in the article. (depends! not sure will write it or not)

Well, I learnt one thing after meeting her, that the strength of a friendship, or rather be any relationship does not depend upon the time you spend! We became friends around 5 months back, in October 2011 and you know what, we have get along so nicely now, that we can't miss a day without messaging each other a single day! (except the weekends!)

Before we go ahead, let me tell you all very frankly please DO NOT consider this friendship or relationship as a boyfriend-girlfriend one! Let me tell you, this one is much above it! (And actually I am not learned enough to define my current expressions and feelings in words, about what this friendship or what this person is for me!)

We first met during the rehearsals of the Annual Day Celebration at our Company with some group of people and just as like-minded people come together and share their views and thoughts, we went on sharing some really good moments..

We (as a group) performed on stage during the Annual Function.. and majority of us dispersed into our own daily chores of work! But as I rightly said above, some like-minded people come along and stay together for life! I, B and a couple more are still very close friends, share our thoughts and sorrows, have fun, discuss things give some beautiful names to each other and much much more!!

Tell you guys, she gave me a beautiful name "Santa" just before Christmas of 2011. Well, I really don't know whether I am worth it, but I try to keep up to it!

And my friends, you know what? No friendship is perfect without a fight.. Yes, indeed, even we had a small Fight! It was at the end of the year and we said bye-bye to that with 2011!

Blossoming and Bubbly B!

Everybody have their good and bad days, and not all days are same and that's why you feel happy during the Good ones.. Once even she had some really pathetic days and I tried my best to comfort her by playing some pranks and some self jokes. I thank god I was successful and I got this in return!


I got to say, that appreciation is always delightful and when it comes from the person you admire the most, it feels like Heaven!

We celebrated the colorful festival together with some more besties! Enjoyed like anything..

Now along with our work daily, we play pranks with each other, and some other people in our group, have fun, enjoy, take care of each, are always ready when anyone of us needs the other and what more do I say! I can just go on and on and on... and never stop!


Concluding this article (I would not say I kept it short), today, as I sit on my chair, writing this Article for you Miss B, I must tell you that you are the Best Person I have ever met in my life!!! And maybe, I will never meet anyone as good as you are or maybe there will be anyone as special as you are to me! Its really very hard to believe how someone out of my family could start understanding me so well in so less time!

You ROCK as you are!!! Please be yourself!
And keep on sharing your fragrance as you usually do!

Some Happy Friendship Moments

Recent Instance:

Today, i met one of my best friend's fiance. I met him previously a couple of times maybe.... But today.. When there were talks about some specific topics we both are interested in, it seemed to me like we are dear old friends chit-chatting!

Strange are some situations and cool are some people that turn so good friends in so less time.

And i gonna call him KK...

"Murthi" as my friend calls him..

Well, to tell you guys, we share some common interests like bikes -- specifically Bullet and Java the antiques -- and Blogging.

Believe me, he puts his heart out on paper (not literally) when he writes...

Oh man! I have become a fan of his articles..

And yes one more thing that we have in common.. We both are Fat... (Just that i am a bit more)

To summarize the above, i would say that,

Everyone of you might have come across such a situation, wherein you met someone had just an aquaintance and suddenly, you become good friends... (with one thing in both's mind, hey you like it?? Me too), and that's where the fun begins!

And till now, I have always seen one thing, that even from a big crowd, likeminded people always come together and stay buddies...

Wish you all such Happy Friendship Moments! :-)
