Decisions- Importance & Repercussions.

Hello readers

Hope you all are doing great.

Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come.

      

 - Robert H. Schuller

Oh! Crap, I shouldn’t have done that, now how to get things back on track. We all would have done several mind talks like this after a hexed situation, isn’t it?  

How important it is for one to handle a particular situation? One wrong move could be a costly loss for you. It is not possible for everyone to take right decisions at all given times.

If we compare the game of chess to our life we all understand the importance of decision making. It is very important in chess to move your pawns in the right direction which will eventually make you the winner, similarly it is very important to take right directions in life and win situations and move further.

From the medical point of view the decision making ability is located in the medieval cortex of brain, and the basic thinking algorithm that brain uses before taking a decision is, will the result of this decision be harmful to me? or the people around me if yes progress with the current decision if not find alternatives.

But still we have seen many people taking wrong decisions even though they know that it is wrong to follow that route for solving the problem.

So if we just try to catch up on the psychological aspect of this, it was found in a study which was conducted in Florida, that every time we take a wrong decision intentionally, please note that this word “intention” is very important as you are guided by your motive and intention.

 So if the person’s motive, goal or intention is confused or not properly defined he will have the difficulty in taking decisions.

For instance, if we take the difference of opinion between a couple, the difference will trigger an argument and will end up in taking random decisions just to win that argument, at end of the day there will dissatisfaction and remorse between them and it will take time for them to get back to their usual lighter moods, therefore we should not take decisions in middle of an argument or a quarrel.

Making correct choices is very much essential, so what happens if you stumble in few places? You will learn your lessons and improve in the art of decision making.

You know this word decision is a small word, but big empires have been built based on this small word, great leaders take decisions which have future repercussions which may affect people either in a good way or rather make it worse.

Taking right decisions is actually the key in maintaining and setting the tone especially in relationships. This is where it is important to keep one's mind as cool as cucumber. Any sort of turbulence in relationships would definitely hamper the environment at both personal and organizational levels of that individual. So, it is always advisable that one has to take some extra care when it comes to decisions related to maintaining relationships.

So please let your decision be free of common enemies which will disturb the process of decision making such as urgency, anger and emotional thinking and so on.

All the best we wish you a happy New Year in advance, let this New Year bring happiness and pleasure in your life.

Bose- The forgotten Hero.

Hello readers

Hope you are doing great.

One individual may die for an idea, but that idea will, after his death, incarnate itself in a thousand lives.

-Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose.

Heroes are born and cannot be made, that quote goes back a long way.

When we start talking about patriots your heart beats faster with pride and respect. When we listen or read the great risks these men had taken for a cause, we can  understand what a country really means to a person if it has been forcefully been taken away from him.

Let us talk about the freedom struggle of India have we realized the amount of courage these people had to fight a mighty force like the British.After reading a book called "What happened to Netaji" written by Anuj Dhar which gave us the spark to write about this great man.

Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose with Japanese army.

 How many of us know that Netaji Bose was the first man to cross borders and meet great leaders like the Italian Ambassador, and Adolf Hitler himself for the only reason to get freedom to India.

He was the first Indian who traveled in a sub-marine popularly called as U-boat by the Germans, again all this for that one single cause getting freedom for India.

We should all watch this movie titled "Bose the forgotten hero" directed by Sri Sham Bengal, the true patriotism is very well captured in this movie.

Bose, what a great leader, a great motivator, a person who lived only for one cause that is freedom for Hindustan, but still as the taboo prevails in India all good people are not given the respect that they deserve and are dragged into controversies which they do not even know about.

Even though Netaji was not dragged into any controversy, his life was turned into a conspiracy by the so called "Congress" including M.K Gandhi and Nehru who were part of this.

The first scam happened at this time frame, as mentioned in the book "what happened to Netaji" written by Anuj Dhar.

What we read in the book was quite distributing, after the plane crash which supposed to have taken the life of Netaji there was an exchange of two Buddhist vessels 

1.The ashes of Netaji and;

2. vessel containing the treasurers which included diamonds and gold bars of the Indian National Army (INA) which was the first modern army built by Netaji.

The Murthy brothers who were set to be close to Netaji became rich overnight.

Another page in the book says, Gandhi knew he was in Russia, he could have bought him back to India and give the respect he deserved,  but he would never do that for internal political reasons differences of opinion between Netaji and him.

Bose was one of the greatest and daring revolutionary of our time.According to us he would have been a rightful leader to guide India, he was a visionary who organised a modern army for the first time before we got independence, he was also a proactive negotiator who brought Asia and Europe  together to fight for us, isn't that great?

Well we can't change history, but we can start changing our attitude towards so called great leaders, and start following real leaders.

It is very unfortunate that its been 60 years since we got independence but still no one knows what happened to Bose or perhaps the known fact has been hidden from us, we have been mislead for all these years. 

We are very glad the government of India has decided to declassify all the files related to Bose very soon which is a ray hope that may unveil the truth about this hero.It shall be the right of all the citizens to know the actual truth about such martyrs.

Thanks a lot for your time, have a great day ahead.

The Beauty of Test Cricket

Hello readers

Hope you all are doing great.

“Test cricket is like a main course, and always will be. The other versions are like starters and desserts. If you asked 10 cricketers, I wouldn’t be surprised if 8 say that test cricket is the top, and then comes the rest.”

     
  - Sachin Tendulkar

What a beautiful delivery that was, an out swinger inches past the outside edge. There are men all around the bat with 4 slips in place.

The typical words from the commentary box . In this particular format of the game of cricket men will be in complete whites which itself is a visual treat to watch. This is the test cricket which will be played for 5 days. 

Test cricket is always the best cricket. Wherein, it will be a test of characters for the players. For one to really enjoy the beauty of the game of cricket he has to follow the test format regularly.

Sadly, test matches have had been tagged under the boring and dull 5 day cricket category, which is actually a myth. It is the most elegant format of the game which will always be. During the early days of cricket there was only one format and people would and had to follow that particular format without any option. As the game progressed there was a lot of innovation and the resultant is what we have today the ODIs and the most loved by all the T20s.  

So, has the innovation in the game hampered the charm of the test cricket? It is a yes to a large extent, because many game lovers now have started to think that the T20s are very entertaining and fast format of the game and have shifted their love from the tests to the modern format barring a few true game lovers. We are not against the modern day cricket scenario but are a bit concerned about the test cricket and its perception by the young.

There are loads of takeaways from this format of the game. Sheer entertainment is not only the reason why one should watch the test cricket. You actually can learn a lot from the test format. How to play at given situation, controlling of nerves and more. It really isn't a cake walk for the players. A lot of dedication and sacrifice is needed. 

Patience is the key facet what one can take away from the test cricket. It needs a deep understanding of the game. Right from the toss till the end of the days play on day 5 of the match, it will be a true test for the players. 

Test cricket is an 5 day adventure where the tables can turn at any time in this the 5 day window.

It should be a guiding light to all those youngsters who want to make cricket as their career because it is the purist form cricket.

It was considered like an examination of the true potential of a player who would newly join the team.

Test cricket is how cricket started so obviously we ask need to enjoy it and grow this format of the game to a new level.

Thanks for your time
