Planning is the key to success: Time management

I am back with another post but this time I am going to deal with 'Time management'. This has become an important aspect of everyones life in this hectic world. In order to cope up with the stiff competition and never ending desires of the human mind, it is really not possible to achieve your goals without planning and time management. There is a famous quote - " A work which is planned is half done". Thus we must make plans before performing any task in order to succeed in it. It is better than spending ten minutes in working out a plan rather than doing the whole work again.
Everyone would have tried to make plans and to follow them at some point of their life, but many would have failed miserably. Commitment is what a person needs in order to follow their plan. In the beginning, one or two plans may fail, but you should you be determined not to let your next one fail. It can be done in a pretty simple way.

1. Note down your goals. A written goal has more success rate based on psychological factors.
2. Prepare a to-do list and check it once you have do the job.
3. Fix a long term goal, write it in a big piece of paper and stick it in a prominent place in your living room so that it motivates you always.
4. Do not over-plan. Planning ahead of one week is not practical.
5. Dedicate yourself to the process.
6. Write a dairy to analyse yourself.

These simple steps can give a great boost to the quality of your life. You tend to become a tie conscious person and will make use of available time efficiently. Also, “A good plan today is better than a perfect plan tomorrow” - So ever delay your actions. Today is always better than tomorrow. So start planing and see the difference!

Break the barrier : SEXPLOITATION

Today, I was seeing some TEDIndia2009 talk videos. One talk by Sunitha Krishnan deeply influenced me. Her topic was SEXPLOITATION IN INDIA. She is the founder of a social organization called Prajwala, which helps trafficked woman and girls. She was very bold and was straight forward in putting her facts to the audience irrespective of the sensitivity of the topic. After seeing that I got an urge to contribute something to her cause and I decided to write a post.

Sunitha started of by showing pictures of three children of ages four, five and seven respectively and later told that these three were sexually exploited and were infected with HIV virus. That startled me to a great extent and I am sure it will to you also. This shows the cruelty of Indian men. How sex craving men are? To what extent they can go? All these questions have really disturbing answers and something needs to be done for that. Sunitha then told that she has saved around 3000 exploited woman and most of them have been infected with HIV. She then told that mostly every sex worker has been tortured to a great extent and those people are affected badly by that and are not able to come out of trauma easily. Also, an important point which she mentioned was the role of society in rehabilitation of such woman. The basic barrier to these people is the civil society who talks about these issues but never actually accept them as fellow beings. She gave an example of her friends who were working along with her in helping out woman. One day her mother became ill and she wanted a lady to take care of her and she asked Sunitha to arrange a woman and also said " I don't want one of our girls and please find someone else". This portrays the selfishness of human beings at a great level. It is just weird to see people telling various things but changing their decisions when it comes to them. She has rehabilitated many of these women by training them in welding, masonry, carpentry and other works which are generally considered to be done by men because these women have more will power to fight in the male dominant society. These women are working in many big companies now and making a living out of it. Finally she pleaded everyone to break the barrier and see them as one among us and not to see them as a victim or as a different person and also asked to pass on the information so that it creates awareness among fellow human beings.

Here is a You-tube link of her speech and interested people can watch it here.
Thanking-you.

The nature of human minds

It is more than a year since I made my last post. Those were days i had interest in computers and was full of energy. but slowly all the energy went away in due course of time. So now i return to post my feelings about my friend.
Friends are important part of life. I value my friends next to my parents. Friends help you the most in times of hardships. But sometimes, they are the creator of hardships in our life. When many people are against and you have your friend to support you, every problem can be tackled. But when our friend becomes the problem it gets complex. Thousand words that come from enemies don't hurt you much. A single word from a person who is close will shatter our heart so easily. I am telling all these because my mind is not at peace and it has been bruised by a good old friend of mine whose name i wouldn't like to disclose.
After all, life goes and you need to live it till your time comes. Awaiting comments.!!!

Manchester United's slow pick-up

Last season's premiership winner ManUtd stared badly this season. With star player Ronaldo's return in their fifth match and the new player "Berbatov" boosted its confidence and now it is on a three match un-beaten run. Hope it continues.
