Abe Oye!

Had a nice week off at Mamta’s place.

February 6, 2008 · Leave a Comment

After 3 failed attempts of making an extra buck, I chose to take a break and go and stay at Mamta’s place. Mamta, Nikhil and Oorja were going to Thailand and I offered to stay back and take care of Ginger.

I got really bored when they were not around. At one day I slept till 3pm :) . But life became twice as good once they returned.

Mamta and Nikhil bought me a super sexy pair of glasses. Nikhil can someday become a fashion guru. He can really carry himself well with Red, Yellow, Pink … anything.

They also got me a bag, a watch and dry fruits from Thailand.

In the meanwhile our Landmark Community had organized a meet up at Cubbon Park and I really enjoyed catching up with everyone.  I met Kiran, Pooja, Akash, Sudhamshu, Nikhil, Venkatesh, Revathi, Subhash and Aviral! It was awesome fun.

The books that I have read in January

February 6, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I read the following books in Jan :-

  1. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows: JK Rowling - This book was a good ending. I was disappointed with HP-6. But Deathly Hollows really turned the plot upside down. An amazing read. I loved it.
  2. Illusions – “The adventures of a reluctant Messiah” – Richard Bach : This is one hell of a book. Anyone who indulges in spirituality and ontology will instantly connect with the book. My favorite quote from the book is “Argue for your limitations and sure enough they are yours”.
  3. Before You Quit Your Job : Robert Kiyosaki & Sharon Letcher : Another sexy book from Robert Kiyosaki. Most recommended for anyone who is planning to be an entrepreneur. I learned many things that I really needed to know before starting my business. I am gonna write a big review for this book soon. I have also taken on reading all of the “Rich Dad Series” books and buying the CashFlow game this year.
  4. Megaliving – Robin Sharma: Need I say more about this one :)
  5. Angels and DemonsDan Brown: I liked “The Da Vinci Code”. Being a conspiracy theories’ buff myself. I thought this one would really be (as many have told me), better than “The Da Vinci Code”. It was entertaining but not as good as the former. I personally didn’t like the degree of luck that Robert Langdon enjoyed. It was not digestible. But I have become a fan of the guy who painted the ambigrams. Pure genius.
  6. I also reviewd a book by my graphology teacher “Keith Rozario“. I look forward to picking up Handwriting Analysis again.

Megaliving All 30 Days complete!!!

February 6, 2008 · 5 Comments

I completed my Megaliving 30 day program yesterday! Life has really transformed. I have grown by leaps and bounds. This is the happiest I have been in the last 3 years! :) . I can feel myself growing above my moods and circumstances.

It was a tough journey. I stuck to it with discipline. And I have got the fruits.

I would like to write a lot about my journey in the coming posts, but here is a quick list of a few things that I have achieved :-

  • I eat 3 times every day. Feel very energized and upbeat!
  • I exercise 5 days a week, have built a decent endurance and can feel my abs hardening
  • I meditate regularly and my focus levels have gone up several times.
  • Its pretty easy for me to persevere these days as I don’t get distracted easily.
  • I have built amazing discipline. And I enjoy it :)
  • My pimples have disappeared and my dandruff has reduced
  • I get very very few negative thoughts every day and I am quick to challenge and dispel them.
  • My will power has increased significantly
  • My memory has improved.
  • I have started remembering routes to various places and names of people.
  • I am literally upset-free. (this credit I’ll give to Landmark Education though)
  • I keep my room neat and tidy.
  • I feel so good that I never feel like being in disheveled clothes. I am almost always clean-shaved. And I do so not for the people looking at me, I do so because I feel like it.
  • I have started waking up early morning. Thanks to Soniya for this.
  • I have become very good at practicing commitment over attachment.
  • I have really started living a life of no pretense! It used to be very confronting, but now I must say, I have overcome the tough phase and am enjoying the fruits.
  • I managed to read 6 books in January. Overshooting my target by 1 book.
  • I eat fruits regularly and am noticing their effect in my skin and body.
  • I have built this habit of “kaizen”. Pushing myself without taking stress :) .
  • I have grown by leaps and bounds.
  • The list goes on… Thanks Mr. Sharma

There are a few things that I could not achieve, the prominent one being my 1000$ target. But the kind of guy I am now, I just wanna learn from it and move on. My targets for April and July stay as stated earlier. I also did not complete my handwriting analysis website. Primarily because I was focusing on other strategies to meet my targets. And something tells me, I’ll meet them this time.

Not to mention, I will continue to MegaLive each day from now on. In fact today was better than any of the previous 30 days. Today was way above them all. :D
