Old habits..

(both good and bad..) are hard to change..

when we are used to something, it isn’t easy to change or stop doing something all of a sudden. Its like getting out of an addiction(a milder version).. happens in phases.
Its like when you have a habit of diving into the water every time there is a problem(whether or not it is the right solution..), there is a given situation when diving in the water disturbs the entire ecosystem because you are a bad diver. This has gone to the point when the ecosystem could be in serious trouble and could have much worse repercussions than you can imagine. Added to this is the fact that you have been diving in for a couple of years now without too much thought and of late, have been told to stay out. And there are these times when, by mistake, when old habits surface..
and then there are unnecessary issues because people who trust your habit change are disappointed.. and will have to police you lest you encroach on forbidden territory again..
requires you to have lots and lots of will power…..

Technology has changed life..

invest time into understanding technology so as to understand improve productivity and hence, quality of life! :)

I am technologically impaired and almost always laughed at thanks to my lack of technology IQ.. its almost funny to think I am working hard on it..
And I feel it is important that I do. The way I would learn to play football would be by going out there an kicking. Sure, I may not have great football sense and hence would never be a Ronaldo or a Pele.. but its about getting better everyday..
and kicking more balls.. making a fool of myself.. laughing at myself.. and the moving on! :)

Twitter terror..

in the wake of the Mumbai attacks, a big source of the euphoria and fear has been users twittering rumors about the attacks..

in a situation as bad as this, it can’t possibly get worse.. or so we think..
but what do you do when you see dozen rumors which say almost every place in mumbai has terrorists.. the result is widespread panic!
the lesson -> in our personal life, its very important to contain problems. Its as simple as not twittering our personal issues or making them too public.. sharing is different from broadcasting.. 
the big reason is that if we do so in our personal life, we would definitely do the same when we hear ‘sensational’ news like this.. god knows how many people must be going crazy worrying thanks to the very rumors we spread.. 
lets take care that we are always talking facts!
