The value of 'BRAND'

This five letter word has a small or a big space in every individual regardless of their status. Today Brands'  name speak more than they actually are. Everyone wants to look good and especially look expensive. This is the reason they go for Brands without even thinking of how much they are paying for a product. The only thing which keeps bothering them is that whether that product would fair well in peoples' mind or not. And this opens the window for the trading world to keep hiking the prices of the products because they are absolutely aware of the scenario in the market.

We have thousands of brands in front of us in the market today, but which one to add to our carts becomes the problem here. So to reduce this, market introduces SALE which allow the people to take anything from anywhere. As soon as people get the news of sale they run, snatch, fight, stand in long queues, etc. This shows that how hungry they are to buy them. In order to be at par the celebrities, people tend to spend thousands on apparels to start with. After that comes the electronic gadgets. Today everyone wants the best gadget but the question is that do they really get what they spend thousands for? Laptops, Cell phones etc. each brand promises to give better services than the other one present in the market and when those going malfunctioning before their warranty period, is sometimes alarming to us. We freak out and go to the service centers where we ourselves are blamed for bad handling of the product.

The world is very dynamic today. People are getting richer and are becoming more and more vulnerable to spend extra than their usual budget in order to prove their status in society. The good thing about this is that people are getting stronger financially but then spending like this does not benefit them just for sake of show off. This creates jealousy and also conspiracies sometime.

This was all about owning the materialistic matters. Today even the educational and professional institutions have also developed their brands which keep no option for the common man but to get adapted to the situation. If you're a graduate from IITs or NITs then you're offered much more than other good institutions in India without being checked whether even you fit in that or not. That is not wrong because they worked hard, got into those prestige institutes and are finally rewarded but are they all eligible for that much hike that they get? Maybe. I had one personal experience regarding this, in an interview i was told you have a brand with you-MIT, my college, don't worry about getting selected in big MNCs. I was like, "what?" I am working all this on my own and in the end of the day i get selected because am from MIT not because who i m or what i have achieved? Yes, that big power is associated with each Brand.

The thing which comes out of this is that yes we all like brands and its power but why do we want to lose ourselves to them in order to achieve anything? Not convincing to me at least. Everything has its own price, so appreciate what you have and what you can afford. We make a product become a brand so why not make ourselves first and show the world who really we are. Try being distinctive than just a follower like every 80 in 100 people. Save more and spend more on charities and other useful matters and restrain yourselves to spend extra in order to just own expensive gadgets, automobiles and apparels for the sake of looking rich, there's much more than that waiting for you.

Thank You.....

Human Behaviour

Humans are the most dangerous animal on this planet. As everything present around us speaks about its existence, likewise every human being too have their own sense of existence. The behavioral complexity is so much perplexed that we tend to miss the actual meaning they try to convey through their actions quite often. And above all this is the understanding of a human mind. Very difficult! A moment they share everything they feel and the next moment they are unaware of the things they do. That's where the problems start.

Everyone wants to be on the top and the world can't fit them all together, so in order to attain the highest post we do unlikely things which we were not meant to do. It starts no where else but from the grass root level when we are kids. From the day one we are trained how to get the best out of everything. Always worried about the outcome regardless of any interest in that activity. So we can say that every individual has an instinct which is not spontaneous but inherited within us since birth.

With a never ending needs also have engaged every individual to accumulate as much as they can. With such materialistic notion of living has risen the bar of an quality life style which is good in some sense but somewhere gets mislead and carried away. This results into big getting BIGGER and small getting smaller. Being the only mammal having emotions, we often forget about them. We mould ourselves according to the current needs of the world in order to be in pace with it. And with this comes the pressure of handling the responsibilities whether we take it by choice or is pondered upon us. The learning continues throughout the lifetime, it's just that we keeping changing our modes and sources. This helps us to tackle each and every responsibility with equal amount of zeal and passion.

In course of following the world, we eventually end up doing what the majority of population is already doing. As a result, we mess up. Every parent wants their child to be an engineer or a doctor and how many of them do it as their own interest, a very few. When are we going to stop running behind the masses? It is not that only this profession can bring you happiness, there are many others but here comes the human mind and its behaviour which do not allow us to. We do what we see. Being successful and happy in life is our goal, its fine no doubt but why aren't we contained? Is there no threshold to get contained for humans? Answer is debatable. If we get contained then what about the economic growth and if we do not then journey continues embedded with lots of hassles and pain.

We have to understand one thing very clearly that whether we get want we want or we fail to achieve, the only thing remains with us is memory. So stop killing in order to get the best, its nothing but you who decides what is good and what is bad. Be focused because changing gears every moment is just rusting of your character. Remember Life is a beautiful journey for the ones who are blessed enough but for those who create their own pathways, have a different feeling altogether. Save your actions and memory space to store something which you can cherish later when alone because you never know what's NEXT in this REALITY CHECK called life.

Love Sex And Dhoka...

 Adaptation of Western culture is one thing and implementing it in your life just for the sake of doing it, is no where justifiable socially. You turn out to be just another person being victimized by it if you take it as a fashionable trend. It was never and it will be never a trend to follow Western culture. It is not wrong to learn and get acknowledged about different cultures but adapting just because everyone is also, becomes sometime and for someone unmanageable and end up getting themselves as well as others hurt. That's what i am talking about.

How many of us, whether it be the high school guys and girls or be it college level students, we all have  at one or the other  phase, spent time in a relationship - short or long. No doubt! But the thing is that does it has any real meaning having a relationship which has to be ended some or the other day. Very rarely one or two get its real meaning when it converts to marriage and finally ends the 'tom and jerry' game with your parents.

First phase of any relationship starts with friendship. The most integral part of any relationship to be a success in future. With that comes love which takes you to a different level totally where nothing seems better than your partner with which you also commit the first mistake of keeping aside every other thing you should have also cared about. It is an unseen mistake which you realize later if your 'thing' does not work out to be good enough. 

Then comes the three letter word - SEX. Very common in today's generation. I just cannot understand why this has to be included in ones journey of finding a partner whom they can trust and have faith in, whenever asked for. This is the thing which spoils the party and makes it sound ugly and indecent in front of society. 

Last comes the betrayal. Very painful for the one receiving it. Ending a relationship because of family pressure and brain wash is one thing which can be accepted but ending it just for the sake that you can't go around with the same partner for too long is not accepted. Atleast i can't buy that. Circumstances have to do alot with what you do for being in a trendy relationship but what results because of your casual behaviour is sometimes any state contrary to a state of bliss for your partner. I don't understand how people manage to find it amusing and get moving on themselves so easily after being so much attached mentally as well as physically.

What is portrayed by our celebrities have nothing to do with our life because they are meant to do so in their reel life, they are paid for this. Do not allow any sort of intrusion like that, it simply kills for those having a long relationships.

Love is a beautiful state to be in but its use should not be misused.
I am not opposing a pre-marriage relationship but i am saying that it should never be a tool to gain any benefit out of your partner. Be clear and determined when you start, i am sure you'll have a totally different high and don't let the last phase enter in your larger than life vicinity of LOVE.

comments are appreciation and motivation to me. please do so when you visit.

GANDHI v/s The MAHABHARATA

'An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind'....MG
‘Revenge is the purest emotion’.....MAHABHARATA
It is a very sensitive issue at-least in this country to set anyone and anything on fire if we go the words written in MAHABHARATA without actually knowing its core meaning that why it was included in the text. Infact what i am made to think is that this country does not need any topic to get provoked, it gets itself ignited. Well, taking our second quote by our Father of the Nation, MK Gandhi. He was the only of his kind. So, we believe each and everything he said and he did. As far as my personal opinion is concerned about this topic is that i don't know whether it's from within or what, but i have always felt the same that is conveyed through this quote if am not wrong in extracting its soul.
We often get carried away by what we are made to face in our lives whether it be happiness or sorrowfulness. Its true and cant be denied on the terms of being dishonest with yourselves. Well, happiness takes us to a virtual world and we are made to think and feel its warmth until we are hit by something meaningful or a dream-breaker. And once that happens, it incorporates so much hatred in our souls that it takes time to gather our senses back on proper functionality. The one phase should never be allowed to cultivate, i.e, the feel of Vengeance inside an individual no matter how bad life is to you. This would rather give you more strength and WILL power to act your deeds in a more rationalized and systematic manner later.
BUT the MAHABHARATA quote says its the purest emotion only because it is the first instance and reaction of your mind when your hit (that's how i have meant it to be). That is truly justifiable once you get back to controlling your senses.
Now, if we don't follow "an eye for an eye...." then certainly this world has not much years to live in. If we follow the perception of lowering our eye lids and not always confronting, would help to turn even your outgoing soul and settle things without being loud. But only to a certain limit. Don't allow it cross your peripheral or your comfortable zone upto which you can tolerate. Tolerance is the key here but should not become your weakness.
I hope to get many comments and personal views on this topic......do post on this BLOG.....certainly this is the REALITY CHECK! keep rock and steady.....
