Life in Bangalore

In the busyness of daily life we have perfected the art of Monotony right from when we wake up until we sink back to bed almost unconscious (I mean due to tiredness !) . At some point , Monotony catches up…you could have been incredibly efficient that day …but a sense of “emptiness” fills in…I have not still figured out completely how to break the shackles of daily routine…but I guess I am close to hitting on a solution…”10 Minute Projects” If I ask you , if you have an hour to do an activity to break the routine, I know what you would tell me…a “BIG NO” ….If I ask you if you have 30 minutes, the answer may be a mix of “Yes” and “No”.

As you can see now, it does not add an iota of value to your life if you travel so fast  in the wrong direction. Many of us do that…we put our money in the wrong investment…we choose to pursue the education in the wrong field ….We chose the wrong job….and the list is endless. It is high time that we think velocity and not Speed alone..because Speed is efficiency, Velocity is effectiveness Speed is Doing the Things right ,Vel
