My take on life :)

We live in technologically exciting times, the world is constantly evolving and at express speed. The internet and the mobile technology has really altered our lives. Things we never thought of earlier are happening at the click of a button. We are light years ahead of the lifestyle of the last century. The TV screens have become bigger and light weight, a digital camera costs only a few thousand rupees, washing machines are automatic, we can talk to persons sitting in another continent, almost free of cost, even kids today carry mobile phones. We can easily connect our laptops to TVs, a small pen drive easily stores few GB data. We don’t need to carry huge photo albums to share snaps with our friends. The era of cassettes is long gone. Today, music of latest movies is easily available online.

The practice of writing letters is almost extinct now, people have switched to writing e-mails. That’s not to say, writing letters was boring. It had its own wonderful charm, but fact is not many do that anymore. I don’t remember the last time I walked into a bank. ATMs almost do everything we need with banking.

So, what am I coming to, you will ask. My point there is still so much more to be invented. There is still so much more possible to be done. There is something new introduced almost every day. Products are becoming obsolete in a matter of few years. Sky is the limit to where we can go. So, it’s of utmost importance for people of our generation to stay on top of every emerging technology and trend, else we will be left behind, even before we realize it. So, let’s invest our energies on learning new products, new technologies and earning knowledge. That’s the only sound investment.

We must be totally ethical in the way we live life. This gives a lot of mental peace to us and to our families.

Also, it’s important to dream big. Do not be blinded by your past or present. If you have a dream, the only way to move forward is to try to realize that dream. Not many are successful all the time, not even Sachin Tendulkar. But if you keep putting in the efforts and do the basics right, success will follow sooner than later. So, be persistent in your efforts.

It’s important to have a vision in life. You need to visualize life 5 years, 10 years, 20 years and more down the line. Don’t just live life as it comes. Have some goals. List down things you want to accomplish in life. And go for them with everything you have got.

And above all else, don’t be too serious about life. Ultimately, we are on this planet only for a few years. So, why not enjoy life to the fullest, till it lasts :)
