Pendulum of Luck

"Pendulum of Luck" is the theory which I have decided to call it. This is based on my own experience with success and failure. Suppose, center of the pendulum lies the success and at its extreme ends lies failure. Then luck is the string oscillating between success and failure. This pendulum oscillates all through the life and depending upon what point our luck is we succeed or fail. No matter, what effort we put across, result is dependent on which point the string of our luck is at that point in time. There is no way everyone can be successful or fail all the time. It just that success and failure are alternative. We gotta keep working.

Wonderful Thought

I recently came across some wonderful lines for anger management. "We think our only options to deal with anger are either swallow it or float it on someone's face but there is a third option, just let it go. And only when we do that and it is really gone then we can move forward." Wonderful thought.

Letting anger go can help in reducing weight from your heart. People would know you don't care. Many a times there is no point in fighting / dragging issues. Giving up something for someone dearer is a great feeling in itself. But I think letting anger go when it is needed or not getting angry when required is poor habit in itself.

I would follow these lines whenever possible.

Annual Performance Review

Annual performance review at my workplace was just over. This thought came to my mind - fantasied but still what if we had annual performance review every year with God. It is said that fate of a man is result of his own actions. True, but I think a man can only take actions in a set frame of mind which is set by his surroundings. Very few people are born with the talent to break this set frame of mind, think out of box and take actions to change their fate into unbelievable achievements. Performance review at workplace gives inputs on what good or bad we have done in our assignments at work. Similarly, life is full of assignments intermingled with each other. Once we take our actions to do these assignments, we should get a chance annually to get them reviewed by almighty. He will tell us how and where we could have done things differently and made the result more favourable. It is like result of one better action could have caused some better input in another, but we failed to think that action could exist. Many people give up thinking nothing better could be done, I am talking about winning at that particular moment and creating a series of wins to become a legend.

Magical thinking - but just think.
