Allwyn's Blog- The Journey

ஒவ்வொரு சராசரி இந்தியனும் தன்னுடய கனவுகளை துறந்து, ஒரு சராசரி வாழ்க்கை வாழும் நிலைக்கு தள்ளபடுகிறான். அப்படி ஒரு சராசரி இந்தியனை பற்றி ஒரு சில வரிகள் பணி என்றான், முன்னேற்றம் என்றான், வீடு வாங்கினான், மகிழ்வுந்து வாங்கினான், கல்லூரியில் காளை போல வலம் வந்தவன், இன்று பூனை போல் அலுவலகத்தில், வருவதும் தெரியாமல்,போவதும் தெரியாமல், நிற்காமல் ஓடினான், மாடாய் உழைத்தான், குடும்பத்தை மறந்து, சொந்தங்களை துறந்து, அறுபது வயதில் ஓய்வு பெற்று, வாழ்க்கை கனவோடு; மகளோ அமெரிக்காவில், மகனோ இங்கிலாந்தில், யாருக்காக ஓடினான், காளை ஏன் பூனை ஆனது, சிந்தனையில், தனிமையில் தொலைத்த நாட்களை எண்ணி!!! In this modern work we are forced to live an average life where the priorities has been to become a professional, get a monthly salaried job, live a budgeted life till the retirement. This trend has been more or less the same in most part of the world. Following the passion is shelved in pursuit of a guaranteed monthly income and live a middle class life. To be in a g...

  I found a caption on my colleagues t-shirt "Today is the day" which was very catchy. When the conversation continued, he asked me to write about the canvas caption. The caption sounded poetic so a few lines about "Today is the day". It's human psychology that we get struck in the past or worry about  the future.  We usually forget to cherish about today. Start today, Don't Procrastinate... Tomorrow  never comes...  Today is the day, start following your passion,  Today is the day, leave negativity behind, Today is the day, start being positive, Today is the day, start doing good deeds, Today is the day, reach out to the down trodden, Today is the day, be courteous to fellow beings, Today is the day, start spreading peace and love, Today is the day, thank those who helped you, Today is the day, to remember our stepping stones, Today is the day, to be happy and joyous, Tod...

With morning coffee in my hands, I stand in the portico gasping  the fresh air which was so  refreshing in the morning. It  was a regular day, but I decided to bunk the office after a very long time. Bunking is a special feeling, (btw: bunking is disappearing from work without any information) we would have bunked the classes, but bunking the office is the industry's latest trend. It was a quiet day, as I turn the Newspaper, sipping second coffee of the day, it was really meant to be a relaxed day and the plan was to Eat, sleep, repeat until it becomes boring. How many of you have bunked the office recently? If you haven't tried yet don't waste time bunk your work today and who have already tried, try again. Coming back to the lead concept... I was having second coffee of the day when a very loud horn got my attention. It was a school bus, then a second, a third, fourth sometimes a school bus, sometimes auto rickshaws pic...

In schools, colleges, work place we always hear the phrases Innovation is the key, Be creative. Think out of box etc.. Ask anyone “ Tell me about yourself” 99 out 100 would say I am optimistic, Innovative and creative. In a context those who preach to be innovative and creative, as well as the one who claims to be innovative and creative may not necessarily have a good understanding about what it means? Are we taught to be innovative and creative in schools, colleges or University.. It's a big no.... Then how to be innovative and creative? one need to figure out himself/herself. I have decided to write about innovation and creativity to share my opinion about creativity and Innovation. I leave it to the audience or readers to decide its right decision to write about the very wage and really close terminologies, I hope my post possess the creativity & the X-factor.  Let me put innovation in this way- It's doing things differently. ...

         I went to the Hypermarket to get supplies for the week. At one corner of  the hypermarket, the ally was totally jammed which grabbed my interest, as I walked towards the crowd it didn’t take much time to figure out, that a guy was selling vegetable chopper with live demo. Vegetable chopper often attracts women  urging them to buy the gadget which makes chopping of vegetable a lot easier .Only very few women are able to master the art of using the vegetable chopper other than the marketing guy who was demonstrating the vegetable chopper.   Everyone have special interest and fascination for gadgets. We don’t hesitate to bring home the gadgets hoping that it will be helpful in our day today life. With existence of nucleus family and the compulsion for both partners to work and affordability the sale of gadgets has gained momentum in recent days. ...

I have been reported missing from blogging,  by my blog 'Allwyn's blog: The Journey' due to inactiveness for almost a quarter of calendar year. The reason for inactivity ranges from summer vacation travels to lack of interest to lack of blogging ideas to shortage of time. Giving Excuses is not an Excuse for not blogging. To regain my confidence & Rhythm I turned my attention to micro blogging( Instagram & Facebook page). I am currently doing a micro project “ Project Motivation” which is to post motivating and  Inspiring Quotes continuously for 30days in my Instagram account  and FB page. The main aim of the project is to motivate and get motivated. I pursued the idea in a very light note but took it very seriously in course of time. At first it seemed to be a simple task, but I later realized its a time consuming activity. Some days I spent many hours to find the right quote which inspires me to p...
