a new experience-a wonderful one too!

Saturday, July 11, 2009 ·

let me begin this post by telling that over the last two months,I've learnt a helluva lot of stuff, and i have also realized that optimism is the key to success....

the reason behind me getting such different feelings(coz usually i only feel like cracking jokes and acting like an idiot!) is because i spent the last two months undergoing "industrial training"!
the place where i underwnt the aforementioned excercise was at ERC,TATA motors...
initially,it felt like like it was going to be an effort gone waste.travelling 20 kms to and fro every day,working from 8 to 6, having terrible mess like food....the list goes on.
to add to my woes, due to the secretive nature of such r&d labs, they cant afford to let you see too much.the first week went away with me still sitting with the project's analytical paperwork.
more importantly, i did not know even 10% of the stuff which i required for my project.
i almost felt like quitting..
but,i held on, and what a good choice i made that day.
the next week onwards, work came, not in truckloads, but substantial amounts.this left me with enough time everyday to explore the huge factory..
i learnt a lot everyday, made a lot of new friends( and gave a lot of photographs :D).but, most importantly, i finished my project on time and with better than expected results and extra baggage in my skull!?(my mom atleast now cant blame me for losing weight!)
as this was the first time i had actually worked in any organisation, that too such a huge one, finishing my project on my own gave me immense satisfaction.
I just wanted to express these thoughts somewhere, and what better place to do it on than on a blog..
serioulsly though, I'm confident that i've learnt at least as much as i've learnt over the last two years in my institute over the last two months here...and that includes everything about life, not just the knowledge part.
but, let me warn you through a "saying/fart statement" of mine:-

"Success is a door with many locks, you need to have all the keys to it to open it".
so,plain optimism won't do,couple it with other essentials too.

btw, i think i'm getting too philosophical these days,or rather, my philosophical side is opening up...
for all those who did not like this post and preferred my initial fart posts, dont worry, life is a cycle,my nextpost will hopefully contain enough fart to extinguish the whole planet!
cheers!!!
p.s:-feels great when thoughts flow freely from your mind onto your pen! heaven!

I am still mulling over the incredible transformations that have taken over your eternal kiddish mind.
To tell u da truth this blog is a masterpiece of an enlightened mind .
But you didn't mention the extras that have to be coupled with optimism to get success.
Hopefully I am predicting a logical answer(not a fart) from you soon since the sluice gate of the philosophical side of your brain has opened....as always be happy ,be kiddish ,do fart and also ruminate like the above masterpiece....

cheers
