minutes - another for thirty days, but it is the man who has it for
thirty years who makes a success of his life."

Our way of Thinking

The US economy is not going to recover soon. This makes the Indian professionals more tensed than the Americans. This trend is predicted to continue to the end of this year. But in my opinion we should not worry about all these happenings. We all became like Hem and Haw in 'Who Moved My Cheese?' by Dr. Spencer Johnson. Instead we should be like Sniff and Scurry always ready to act and change accordingly, though they are not thinking like Hem and Haw. The story just want to show the difference between human being and animals. Humans think but does not work hard or prepare for a sudden change like animals do.

It is widely said humans are the best adaptable animal ever existed. But our adaptation just constrain to the change in the environment. Where as we are not ready to accept the Changes which can happen in this world around us. Most of the time we will be utilizing our capability of thinking just for things which may happen. We often predict or mend things which may happen if we do so. Never behave like that we should be ready to face anything under any circumstances. Not even a single person has his or her life as a failure. But instead it is a lesson. A lesson for a new person who is living or going to live in this world.

There is an old Sanskrit saying, "When we were Born we Cried and the entire world Rejoiced, We should live such life so that when we die we should rejoice and entire world should cry." Such a life is very difficult to achieve. We always think we don't have time to do this and that. But remember every one got 24 hours a day, no one has more or less. We should remember those great people who manged their precious time. The best example for it is Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru. Though he was the Prime Minister of India, working hard for its development in post Independence, got enough time to read books, interact with children, and even write letters to people who know. So we should manage our tie effectively so that we get time for Everything.
