Top 5 regrets of dying - Bronnie

📌 संकलन — मूल लेख: ब्रॉनी वेयर (Bronnie Ware), "Regrets of the Dying" (2009); पुस्तक: The Top Five Regrets of the Dying (Hay House)। यह रचना मूल लेखक की है; यहाँ केवल पढ़ने और साझा करने के लिए रखी गई है। सभी अधिकार मूल लेखक/प्रकाशक के पास हैं। For many years I worked in palliative care. My patients were those who had gone home to die. Some incredibly special times were shared. I was with them for the last three to twelve weeks of their lives. People grow a lot when they are faced with their own mortality. I learnt never to underestimate someone's capacity for growth. Some changes were phenomenal. Each experienced a variety of emotions, as expected, denial, fear, anger, remorse, more denial and eventually acceptance. Every single patient found their peace before they departed though, every one of them. When questioned about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently, common themes surfaced again and again. Here are the most common five: 1. I wish ...

POINTS ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LIFE

📌 संकलन — इंटरनेट पर प्रसारित संदेश, मूल लेखक अज्ञात; प्रसंग: प्रो. रैंडी पॉश (Randy Pausch) का "The Last Lecture" (कार्नेगी मेलन विश्वविद्यालय, 2007)। यह रचना मूल लेखक की है; यहाँ केवल पढ़ने और साझा करने के लिए रखी गई है। सभी अधिकार मूल लेखक/प्रकाशक के पास हैं। On September 18, 2007, computer science professor Randy Pausch stepped in front of an audience of 400 people at Carnegie Mellon University to deliver a last lecture called “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams.” With slides of his CT scans beaming out to the audience, Randy told his audience about the cancer that is devouring his pancreas and that will claim his life in a matter of months. On the stage that day, Randy was youthful, energetic, handsome, often cheerfully, darkly funny. He seemed invincible. But this was a brief moment, as he himself acknowledged. Randy’s lecture has become a phenomenon, as has the book he wrote based on the same principles, celebrating the dreams we all strive to make realities. Sadl...

A father's letter to his son's teacher!

📌 संकलन — यह पत्र अब्राहम लिंकन (Abraham Lincoln) के नाम से प्रचलित है; इसके मूल लेखक के बारे में मतभेद है। यह रचना मूल लेखक की है; यहाँ केवल पढ़ने और साझा करने के लिए रखी गई है। He will have to learn, I know, that all men are not just, all men are not true. But teach him also that for every scoundrel there is a hero; that for every selfish Politician, there is a dedicated leader… Teach him for every enemy there is a friend, Steer him away from envy, if you can, teach him the secret of quiet laughter. Let him learn early that the bullies are the easiest to lick… Teach him, if you can, the wonder of books… But also give him quiet time to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky, bees in the sun, and the flowers on a green hillside. In the school teach him it is far more honourable to fail than to cheat… Teach him to have faith in his own ideas, even if everyone tells him they are wrong… Teach him to be gentle with gentle people, and tough with the tough. Try to give my son the st...

I read that and immediately went back to a time earlier in my career. I worked in a large team of IT workers, with a variety of skills and experiences. Each of us had an area we specialized in (databases for me), but we had to cross train and handle calls and issues in other areas at times. Being a diverse team of about 20 people, we all had noticeable strengths and weaknesses. Some people were talented in almost all areas and could figure things out. Some struggled and sought out the experts in areas outside their own constantly. We had one person in particular that was fairly low down on the skill level, and was in charge of a number of administrative-type tasks for the IT infrastructure. Things like basic group/...

Kahlil Gibran On Children

📌 संकलन — कविता: ख़लील जिब्रान (Kahlil Gibran), The Prophet (1923)। यह रचना मूल लेखक की है; यहाँ केवल पढ़ने और साझा करने के लिए रखी गई है। Kahlil Gibran On Children Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness; For even as He loves...

Even those that might be working in the same desk have often seen their company change, or their job change in that time. It makes me wonder if the era of working for one company is completely dead for IT workers. If that's the case, then do workers move on when they get bored with their jobs? Is there anything you can do to stave off boredom or re-invigorate people about their work? I think you can, and it requires a bit of a balance between ensuring that specific tasks are complete, and giving people the freedom to pursue the things that matter to them. That doesn't mean that your Exchange administrator gets to go teach music on company time, but it could mean that the "backup guy" gets some training in ASP.NET ...

Why not first time ?

It could be inside companies of any size or a part of new start up ventures. There seems to be this idea from all developers, and DBAs, that they have the solution. They know what to build and they'll build a wonderful piece of software the first time. They might be right, but it's not likely. Too often we don't build the best software the first time. It's certainly not all our fault since there are plenty of business people that "think" they know what they want, but they really don't until they see something. And then start asking for a new piece of software, or substantial modifications to what they have. Building software is hard, and as I spend more time in this business I think that building s...

Attention for entrepreneurs!

📌 संकलन — लेखक: प्रवीण गांधी (Pravin Gandhi), मैनेजिंग पार्टनर, SeedFund — "A Drop of Wisdom"। यह रचना मूल लेखक की है; यहाँ केवल पढ़ने और साझा करने के लिए रखी गई है। सभी अधिकार मूल लेखक/प्रकाशक के पास हैं। A DROP OF WISDOM - Pravin Gandhi, Managing Partner, SeedFund I have often seen that new entrepreneurs worry too much about valuation. They should focus on creating value and not valuation. And by value, I mean find paying customers, create an IP and/or a brand - the revenues will follow. Once you have revenues, manage costs so that profits grow - only then you'll have a valuable enterprise. Remember that Angels or funds who agree to invest in your company also have to make money. They make bets, some work and some don't. So unless the investor asks for over 50% ownership, it's OK. If you feel shortchanged on ownership, ask for an incentive for a superlative performance. If you are a passionate entrepreneur, you ought to be interested in getting on with the job,...

When get up in morning, thank GOD for providing one more day to enjoy. Enjoy every moment. The only way to enjoy is to learn. The only way to have more is to give. The money spent belongs to you, the money with you does not belong to you, if it did belong to you, it would have accompanied you. Nothing goes with you except your mind full of memories (Sanskar). You can give only what you have. You should be happy if you want to make others happy. By getting sad of not enjoying your things and leaving them for others, you get nothing. Sacrifice can be done only by happy people. Having pain in your brain, you don't help anyone. Your tears are precious, don't waste them. Your deeds, thoughts and ever...
