Try it!!

How much do we really know ourselves.

We are the closest to ourselves, yet it's so less that we really know about us. :-(

Don't take my word?Find it out yourselves.

We were given an assignment recently to reflect on our values.

The activity was extremely difficult and confusing.But it has surely got me pondering..

Perhaps you could try it on yourselves too.

Dig deep into yourselves and find out that single value that drives you. Your core value. The value that affects all your decisions and of course your actions.

The game is not over :-)

Then justify your choice of the value with your actions. ie, Give examples of your actions which identifies with your value.

Simple is it? Give a deep and honest shot!

And may be you could share it with me too :-)

:-)

I met a student today whose reverence and respect for his teacher touched me a lot. :-)

He was to give us some presentation and his first slide was a dedication to his professor who had taught him the subject. A gesture which really made me very emotional.

And I am happy to say that the student is one of our lecturers here. :-)

I have arrived.

Well, finally I'm here.

Had always looked forward to being here and am happy that finally I'm here. ;-)

So perhaps the coming blogs might some how be related to NIT-C and MBA.

Ah!! That reminds me, let me put across my MBA experience so far.

I seriously believe an MBA is better done after an initial industry experience. It helps you connect so much with what you are studying. I do that. For everything I learn here, I try to find some sort of an example or relation from my previous life! And many a time, I can find it. :-).

Hey, but all work ex people in the class could be really boring yaar.

It is those people right out of college who are the real charm of the class.

For one thing, they take me down a year or two or more along my ageline ;-), but more seriously they proclaim aloud the innocence and naivety of life. And I simply love being around them, happy that I can share their zeal.

And about the pedagogy, what more do I say than that I have never looked forward to attending a lecture though the subject may not be my favourite ones. :-).

As they rightly claim they teach us such that we don't even realize that we are being taught.

What I find the most attractive about the course is that we are taught how to think. We are taught to be better people. We are taught to understand ourselves better. We are taught to relate to us and to everyone around us better. But what gets me wondering is why this delay yaar? Why did it take all these years for our educational system to give me these wisdom? Some may disagree, blame my choice of institutions. But the fact is that there have been people like me affected. It would have made a lot better if in our school curricula we were taught at least HOW TO THINK.

Perhaps everybody should be doing an MBA. Or atleast every professional.Management is something we all do throughout our lives, then why not be a little scientific? The course is hectic, but it is not tough. It requires hardwork and daily effort, but it doesn't have tough equations or formula.

Well, really looking forward to the time here.
