Take it Easy!!!

Don't just run behind goals and success all the time. Set goals to give you a balanced, successful life!! I use the word balanced before successful. Balanced means ensuring your health, relationships, mental peace are all in good order.

There is no point getting a promotion on the day of your breakup. Driving a car would not be so much fun if you have a severe back ache and shopping will not be fun at all if your mind is in all tensions.

"Life is one of those races that we had in our school days where we had to run with a lemon in a spoon kept in our mouth. If the lemon falls, there is no point in coming first. Same thing is with life where health and relationships are like the lemons. Your striving is only worth if there is harmony in your life. Else, you may achieve the success, but this spark , this feeling of being excited and alive, will start to die.....

One thing about nuturing the spark - don't take life so seriously. Life is not something that you need to be serious about since we are are temporary here. We are like pre-paid cards with limited validity. If we are lucky, we may last for another 50 years ad 50 years is just another 2,500 weekends only!!! Do we really need to get so much worked up????

It's ok to goof up sometimes in presentations, take leave from work, fall in love, have little fights with your spouse. After all, we are all human beings and not programmed devices :-)

Don't be serious, be sincere in life!!!!
