Another day that treads on hopelessly through.
Sometimes it is an eye opener to look at things as they seemingly fall into place. To look at hints and answers that have been present even before questions were ever being asked. I am working mostly on the quality of features and applications that I am responsible for shipping. This is as it sounds, a meticulously nitpicky job. Little did I know that there is such a huge scope for improvement here also. The processes, the streamlines and the paths that I will take are not even outlined for me, but I have a fair idea where I am good at and what will help me decide.
Everytime a freakin' Investors and Entrepreneurs ad pops up on my gmail, I am taken back to the days of TIE and Open Coffee Clubs. It seems meaningless to do something more with a talent for writing and little else. I guess I must find a way to better utilize my own tendencies and profile stuff, or as one of my friends put it, turn all the inputs in a day to a meaningful output and then jump aboard and do more. I have at least some idea of the frame work that will go into my making of my first and most precious foray into entrepreneurship. It deals with Information and is sure to give me some experience in all that needs to be set right with my own turbulent life....

Ever felt a gargantuan weight push you down so hard that you have no other option but to sleep? Well...welcome to my life. After gyms and 4 continuous meeting/calls today, I crashed like a dying man's vital signs on hitting the bed. The entrepreneurial scroe so far -- Work 345 Me 0 :(

The lucky number brought with it, its own specter of work with add-on initiatives and Work piling up with each passing day. Now, my primary worry is that my leave doesnt get canceled.

Booking Tickets for home and multiple issues at work made sure that Monday Morning blues hit me hard. With a Credit card debt reaching upward of 40,000 and my online transactions blocked due to faulty password entries, the day was done and dusted from the get-go

The weekenders were a much needed respite from work where I did nothing save sleep, eat and watch inane stuff on TV. Also, the pinnacle of prime time programming like "Rakhi ka Swayamvar" made sure that my loyalties were not divided between the TV and my quest to make something out of myself.

The fun part of today was that it was a saturday and with multiple English movies releasing, my entrepreneurial instincts had their a$$ handed over to them by my fun self and that was literally the end of that. Also, the mind wandered about the feasibility of greatness when camera tripping can produce virtuoso comments. Weekend ahead and dont think this one will be particularly productive...

Not many updates today.
Feeling a little toady and hence spent most of my time surfing and deciding on the best implementation model. I had also subscribed to something called a trend predictor with hilarious consequences and the same trend predictor assuring me with something of a hollow eye on the future that hallucinogenic drugs are a thing of the past with no utility on an egalitarian basis...Thank you ...I didnt really know that :D
Looking at mentoropolis/mentorpolis and quite loving their chilled out views on what it is that a mentor can provide. The fact that they use time as a metric with a staff on board that can be seen as a wider cross section of all that you will see at a quality institute, I had an idea of something similar a long time back but with the profitability and the scale of the entire thing kind of bombing, I really had to retract my claws on all similar pursuits. Also spent time on compendium sites and wannabe portals like Examhub. The idealization days are finally bearing fruit with at least a vague idea forming in my head about things that I want to do...

July Brought with it plenty of rains and a dramatic new ticket to success. So far I had randomized myself by thinking of taking up way too many things at the get-go. That still hasnt changed much but now I realized what my follies are :
1. No domain Knowledge - A common handicap across all entrepreneurial pursuits. I guess thats what makes this field unique. You interpret and then you proceed, if everythings laid out on a table then there isnt really much of a scope for innovation.
2. Passion does indeed color everything - I was laughing and smiling when I read this off someone's status message but this is more applicable than most other things. I must figure out what it is that checks all my tick-boxes at once. I must find out what is going to keep me up at nights with a boner thinking about brand new innovations and fun new ways to innovate.
3. Partners in crime - As important as everything else is, all great innovators and entrepreneurs concur that 2 is the best way to go. I decided that 4 is a good number. But the problem and the issue is that they were all technically very strong and I was adopting their idea....not coming up with my own and owning something. This will bite me in terms of motivation and I decided sooner rather than later to go my own way, ahead full steam.

The Birthday is a time to celebrate. With passion literally overflowing and energy hitting the roof of a clandestinely designed 17th century monument, I finally made some strides in the entrepreneurial department. I realized that my life was becoming a charade and took a few steps to remedy just the same. I realized that :
1. Being randomized was a problem and I was just not recognizing it as 1
2. I was trying to do way too many things
3. I will still try to do way too many things but with a semblance of a plan in place
4. My Time is precious and I should treat it with respect
5. There are non work things that must demand my time and I should tend to them
There were other realizations but the main summary is that I was not looking at the World's most important product - Me. I was not encouraging the work that I had to do to look after myself in an ailing economy. I was screwing up. With this and a hatful of other realizations, I was promptly on my way to start work....Wonder why Birthdays are such great eye openers, maybe its just the sheer knowledge that time is passing you by that inspires and forces realizations down your throat. I had also realized most of my follies regarding the Entrepreneurial pursuits and will elaborate tomorrow...
