The experience

-

What is the name of the feeling which arrives when you are finally going to execute something that you prepared with full dedication and effort? When I saw the scores that were displayed on the screen after the completion of my Graduate record exam (GRE) exam, for a moment I forgot that this is not a good score, but I just flowed in the emotion of satisfaction. I believe that if we do any task with dedication and at the same time remaining true to yourself then at the time of finale a satisfactory if not expected ending is inevitable.

During the time when I was preparing for my GRE exam I always knew that I’m not going to score a high 330 or 320. Same happened with me 2 years back when I was preparing for JEE exams but what made me getting really upset at that time and not this time was that I didn’t accepted my reality during JEE but I certainly did accepted it 2 years later during GRE preparation journey. To decide whether you should be satisfied or disappointed with the result is by asking yourself that at which side of the reality line do I stand? But it’s important to draw one first during the preparation.

GRE score is just a number, a 163 in quant doesn’t mean that I’m good at mathematics and a 147 in verbal doesn’t mean I suck at English. Also preparing for GRE is not a mammoth task at all. It's just a test you need to give to be eligible for Master's admission in USA. Profile, impact and contribution to society guarantees the admit.

  If you take up a path that is not visited often then the experience while walking on it will definitely add to your personality, demeanour and vision as you will have something extra in your pocket because you will have to put no effort in finding what happens if you choose the frequently visited path as numerous people have already taken it.

Why we hesitate?

-
To my friends who say they ‘hesitate’ to speak in public. Why we hesitate? We fear the laughs, specially the whispering among ears and think of it as indignation(insult), don’t we? This is a very common characteristic; I’m not defining it as a problem because if that would have been the case only few people would have suffered but I can’t say about the world but when I see you (my class), I guess everyone suffers with this kind of hesitation. Now, it is not that we don’t bother to improve, even I had discussions with many of you regarding the issues with language ‘English’. “Merko meri English strong karni h, kaise kru?” My reply has always been to take the first step, read newspapers, watch English comedies/movies etc. I just want to ask one thing to you guys that how many of you are really trying to improve on speaking skills? The answer is the measure of consistency to achieve our goals. The biggest mistake that we are doing is not ‘assigning priority’ to lea

                              Decisions The cause of unhappiness is nothing but our choices. We are being called as adults when we develop the ability to decide whats good and bad for us. Our lives are totally based on decisions. The consequences of these decisions get shallow as we move forward in our lives. Yes, not deeper as they say its better to start early. Similarly if we make farsighted decisions at early age than it certainly makes up for some wrong choices that we could possibly make in our future. That decision could be anything for eg. A student who is interested in computers can start to learn code early. Students in college can gain some extra skills which they will need in corporate world. As an earning man one can decide to invest for security in future. But the point is that when we are in those situations we are not in state of analysing things. Ofcourse its the lack of analysis that drives us to situations where we have to make tough decisions. The best thing t

Binary life

-
                                   Numbers 0 and 1 which are also regarded as binary digits form the basis of communication between machines in the globe. Just for the sake of introduction-if there is a phenomenon associated in nature and we assign a binary index to it, then index 0 will represent that it is not happening and 1 it is happening. What I have realised so far that as college students we tend to follow this concept in our lives too. For example, if a computer science student decides to learn a particular language then the student can be seen exhausting his/her complete energy on that thing. We are being taught from childhood that to achieve your aim you must give your 100% to it, no doubt it’s correct but in a particular phase of life there can be many goals to achieve. Like in the case of undergrad schools the focus should not merely be on academics one should also develop co-curricular activities and most importantly good health. As I have seen most of the studen
