Accept and Improve ...

I must admit ... yeah I should ... this blog is not just to reflect my intellectual side.... but to pen down ... my insecurities ... my fears ...

I must admit .... I am a weak willed person ... Yes I Am .. !! I had decided to start blogging ... regular blogging from Friday .. when I spoke to Anil ...

Just like typical regular human beings .. feeble enough to loose sight of his resolutions ... (although I don't hate being a common man ) ... unimaginative ... unthoughtful ... and un-reflective of his self .... Not even ONE learning .. in a day .. not even ONE new thing from the day ... NOTHING ET AL ... :(

Just to mention ... I am trying (almost successful) to hide my inability to spare my expensive 10 minutes ... on this blog ...!!! Wow ... Mr. Busy ... Grrr..

I hope I would be able to devote some more time this blog ... Starting NOW ... Oh .. BTW ... I am gonna prioritize from NOW onwards ... the old way ... ;) ... I need few resolutions to work on ... few motives to motivate .. and few targets to meet ...

... Finally .... Emotions

...Finally... I have settled for "pranamconsulting.co.in" ... i feel it sounds good and leaves me an option to choose either name for the company...

... Now the second topic... Today Geetika had last day @ IBM Pune.. .as she is moving out of IBM and was her last day at Pune... she will be going back ... to Delhi ... While returning back ... we went to have "Cat-B" ... at Viman Nagar .... During our conversation ... we talked about EMOTIONS ... and I commented... that "I (Abhinav) had no emotions ... " .. and by the experiences she had at lunch table... she completely agreed.... :)

... When I came back to my place ... I was talking to my self... affirming... that there are NO emotions in me... recalling the incident during early 2009 ... some doubts crept in ... I felt like... all my emotions have died .. .actually... rather than missing.... Later I called up my parents (as usual) ... and spoke to my mother... grandmother and father... While speaking to Badi Mummy ... I felt so much love for her... so many emotions... after a long time... and I don't know why ... just like that... later same thing happened for mummy too... it was like... a blow.. that God gave me to realize. ..that I still had emotions left in me.... !!!

A Domain Name

Hey All ... wanted to tel you that I am thinking to buy a domain name for my future consulting company .. PBC (PRANAM Business Consulting) .. What do you say ... there was another suggestion.... PEC (Pranam Enterprise Consulting) ... don't know which one to choose ... + I need to select a name for my domain ...
pbc.org.in
pbcservices.co.in

MBA: Update & Other things in Life

Got a mail today from MBS ... regarding interview .. scheduled on 4th Feb ... My first application... and first interview call ... I accepted ... for Mumbai .. (while it sounds so exciting.. I really don't feel so .. ) .. probably I spoke very foolishly to mummy ... don't know why sometime... your frequencies just don't match ... !!!

Today .. I was thinking... and fearing... that I am changing fast into the same old Abhinav ... which I used to be... 2 yrs back ... I thought all this time... that I was being indifferent to people... to avoid any attachments... but I guess I was indifferent to people ... before all this ... and I could never realize the same... I am scared.. seriously. ... Don't know... how to solve the problem.. Can just think of Sai (Baba) help me..

Few lines that I read on one of the blog ... boasting lot of success stories of indifferent people... mixing focus and indifference ... etc... anyways... thats it for today ... :)

The opposite of love is not hate; it’s indifference. Indifference, to me, is the epitome of evil. ~Elie Wiesel

Love will find a way, Indifference will find an excuse. ~ Unknown

The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them; that’s the essence of inhumanity. ~ George Bernard Shaw

The heart withers not from the storms of life, but from the indifference of others. ~ Unknown
