I love typing now.

Typing while looking at the screen and not at the keyboard like they used to show in old movies. Sometimes we forget the little things that can make us happy. We used to work so hard to learn how to type and now we just do not appreciate ourselves enough for being so good at it. This lack of appreciation shows our ingratitude towards self. We are so keen at moving forward, at looking towards how far the destination is that we forget about how far we have come along. This is why I write diary sometimes. I still maintain my resume and update it regularly. Whenever I am sad or depressed or feeling low that I cannot do something, I just turn around and look how far I have come. Nothing can motivate faster and better.

It's Never Too Late!

Many times, it happens that we make a resolution. Most of the times it happens that we breakup with that resolution in some time. Only few times it happens that we stick to the resolution for a "feeling proud" length of time. But then all of a sudden one time it happens that we have to part away with the resolution, with the routine that we have built up with so much effort. And then, we think that we are not worthy to continue the resolution anymore. A long time has passed. Maybe we were not worthy of carrying out the resolution in the first place. But that is not true. Even a day seems like so many years. So, next time it happens that you take a break from your resolution. It is better to pick up where you left off, instead of breaking up forever.

Stuck?

 It's ok, it's really ok to be stuck physically in a place, a situation... But you should still mentally be planning your way out. The good thing about big, unbeatable, monstrous problems is that they give you time. Plenty of it. But above all, problems are here for a reason. They are here to be solved!

A problem is settled does not mean it's solved.

 There is a norm in startup valuation, where a startup is judged based on the problem that it is attempting to solve. It is called "Solution with no problem." That is to say, a startup is trying to solve a problem that is non-existent in the real market. But, our experience have pointed out an exception to this grade. A problem should not be treated to be non-existent if the people have simply accepted the problem as it is for lack of a solution. This happens for example when due to lack of technology or resources people simply accepts the problem to be unsolvable and continues to live with it. But technological advancements can still try to solve such problems. During such times this cannot be said that startup is trying to solve a problem that is non-existent.

Every beginning have an ending.

When you begin to lose, your losses shall have an ending... Don't stop trying. When you are winning, you shall have some bad times stacked for you right ahead, so don't change your behavior... And always remember when Shahrukh sir taught us, Keep struggling till you have your happy ending, until then

Blues don't see Mondays.

 Monday blues is just a term. You can feel heavy hearted any day of the week. But the problem is that, we feel blues on Mondays so we do not give our best. But when we feel good, for example on a Sunday, we still avoid working because... well its Sunday. Well, it is ok to feel low sometimes. But don't blame any day. Just go with the flow. If you are ok with working less on a working day just because you were "not feeling quite right", you should also be willing to work if you feel right on a non-working day.

Taking a step back.

It's not easy. But even the costliest cars have reverse gear in them. Taking a step back sure means you made some bad decisions along the way, but it also shows that you are the kind of person that keeps recalculating the route. That you are capable of taking decisions better than those who fear "WHAT THE WORLD WILL THINK!". It is like in chess, not every move is going to make you win. Sometimes you will have to make sacrifices too. But it's ok, as long as every move of yours make sense. We all make mistakes, but a wise person knows how to detect it and correct it in time before it becomes a blunder.
