Just my interpretation from the book: The book provides independent and neutral biography of a person who had arguably the most media attention and possibly one of the greatest visionaries in technical field. The book is definitely motivational and has some shocking facts on how rude or ruthless the people at these higher management positions can be. The author had lot of discussions with

There is some guy by name Micheal Vincent who keeps finding me jobs in Richmond. Every other day, I get a mail on my yahoo with a subject "I found you a new job". Udayan Mukherjee gives a statement on CNBC that "2009 will be the Year of Sowing". Someone by name Babu G from jeevansathi.com sends a wish (Happy new year, happy mid year, mid month etc.) for every new day and asks me to respond to

Life on weekdays can be broadly classified into 3 -1. Personal life2. Office life3. Bus lifeSleep consumes about 8 hours of a day.Personal life will be consistant and predictable with same people around - 3 hours; Office life with high work load also remains pretty much predictable as even here you are interacting mostly with same set of people - 10 hours (including all breaks).The third one, bus

After much negotiations with my laziness from 6:45 in the morning, I managed to get out of bed at 7:00 AM to get ready to catch 7:45 bus to Office. I had to run and stop the moving bus as I was slightly late, late by a minute to reach the bus stand which is next to my house. Looking at my discharged iPod, I thought I could sleep through for an hour to electronic city. One hour was the average

Bjorn Borg was probably confused on whether he should be sad or happy over Federer's record equalling 5 consecutive Wimbledon titles. Something struck Federer when trailing 5-1 on set 4 which gave him much needed confidence when he held his serve and started fresh in the next and final set. He came back twice in the final set from 15-40 down to finally win the set and the Championship.This match

A minivan was what we needed to throw all the stuff we had for the rafting and camping trip to Maine; Buick Tenzera, the lucky one was packed to the max. Six of us from Malden after much postponing and convincing finally left for Millinocket town in Maine on Saturday, June 15 at 8:30 AM. We were on track with our planned 6 AM start. It was almost 6 hours drive to the camping spot Big Moose Inn in

Per dictionary, Habit is an acquired behavior pattern regularly followed until it has become almost involuntary.The extent to which one acquires these is very interesting. Habits like getting up early in the morning, having a cup of coffee, reading a newspaper etc. are the ones which most people hardly want to change. But how about something like running to read newpaper first in the home no

Kill bill, a very entertaining movie with Uma Thurman doing a great action role. Though some of the action sequences look directly out of Thriller Manju's secret action book, it far better picturized and above all has Uma! Yeah, she carries the whole movie and surely the movie is a total entertainment. Soundtrack is cool, woo hooo song or music is great and Nancy Sinatra's bang bang is a classic

An extremely tiring day and as a matter of fact, I felt like I worked the whole day non-stop (except for lunch and coffee breaks) from 9:30A to 5:30P. To be honest, this is not something very common with me, especially at times when I am so over-confident that everything goes on as planned. Well, the effect of red pill seems to have died; "what red pill?", "which red pill?", "red pill?", "when

I guess this is one of the topics thats being in existance for quite some time now and will continue to be there for SOME more time (hoping it to be just some!). Whenever some movie is made which talks about truth of our past, there are protests to ban the movie from releasing. An art student is beat up by some politicos and sent to prison for expressing his creativity. What about the law that

Roger Federer recently announced his decision to part ways with Tony Roche, his part time coach for 2 1/2 years. It seems he also said that he is planning to go without a coach for some time. I am not an expert in this as my experience in sports compitetions is limited, but looking at the trends, it surely seems a bad idea for world No. 1 to be without a coach. As for Federer, he knows in and out
