Priority-Our priced possession

“Things which matter most should never be at the mercy of things which matter the least – Johann Wolfganag von Geothe How many times do you think about what your priorities are when you wake up in the morning? In fact,never. Even if we do think about our activities that will be taking place during the course of the day, we seldom prioritise them. Going to class without having breakfast since you woke up late, waking up late since you were smart enough to trust your waking skills,sleeping in class since you are tired , tired cause the poor tummy has been deprived of food. The cycle goes on and on thereby churning your day into an unproductive one. Good Lord! Why do we always complicate things? When I talk about priorities I don’t mean salary, job, food clothing shelter and the like. Here I am trying to emphasise on the little things we give unnecessary importance in the name of attention, peer pressure and of course to prove the unique ability to “fit in”. Prove to whom?

The prof wants something innovative for  weekly presentations during HCM class. Little did we know we had just two hours for the next class .

Happy with the feedback and glad that sir asked for the poem to carry along J   Training , Burning & Learning   I ventured out of my nest one day Pressure comes to an end they say   Engineering , Bcom, Bsc and the like Out of college, a job and a hike   Then I landed up in Infosys. Big, big cubicles and management crisis.   Everyone is drinking coffee and chai What am I to do here I let out a sigh!   Then came a monster called Mr. Manager Said “I am your boss”, I could smell danger   I understood him to be an IDIOT of the highest order Cos he told me I better be a fast learner   Training and development is very important Blah, blah, blah he thinks he is omnipotent!   So I decided to excel
