Hope for the Best! and Prepare for the Worst!

-
Hi Folks,

 In this post I'll be keeping it short and simple; title says it all.
Not only for major decisions in life, if you make it a habit of hoping for the best and preparing for the worst; believe me when i say this
There is no force in the world that can disrupt your inner peace
Technically speaking, when we write server-side code; before getting into what is to be done we do what unexpected can come! For example; if I have to create an API which calculates factorial (yeah! I get it why would you create an API to calculate a factorial; just keep your noisy brain stick to this concept, factorial is just an example :P ), before I write calculation logic for factorial I'll think of these scenarios!

1. What if null or empty data is passed!!
2. What if instead of number someone passes aplhanumeric data!!

 So you see; it may seem like nothing and probably overboard initially but like in software designing, the amount of time you spend in development is barely 10% of software life-cycle; 90% of the time is spent on amending changes, maintaining software, bug-fixes etc.

 So when we pay this much attention to a software which has to run on a machine; why not be careful with your life after-all it is far more precious than your friendly pocket software!
Do you ever wonder why we have drills in institutions??
Mock-Drills are conducted so that when in case of emergency; when your mind is in panic and shock (unless you are professionally trained as an armed forces officer :P ), you still should be able to survive because you have rehearsed through a simulation. Same goes with everything around us.

 Also, when you've already anticipated decent number of outcomes that may arise from your action; you do not get surprises/shocks instead you stay cool and deal with it better or worse.

 Also, it gives you a fight-back attitude. Most of us are used to get going smoothly and that is because most of the time things are nice and easy; actual test of valor comes when things suddenly go sour and you are challenged mentally, physically & emotionally.

 Give it a thought!
Shouldn't be so hard; you'll see the relevance when you give it a thought.

Ciao,

Single & Virgin in 20s ?

Hello there, This post is pretty much self realization because of loneliness I feel everyday away from home. At times I wish like everyone out there, it would feel great having someone to come home to, now the real question is: at what cost ? Our society evolved so quickly that there was not much time to really think through, so we were fed the idea of glamour, sex-appeal and a lot of perversion [thanks to movies for guided neuroplasticity]. It can't be denied most people keep the perversion to themselves because they are educated and know it is wrong to let it loose; some however can't do it; anyways that would be different thing to discuss altogether. It has become a trend that someone having multiple intimate partners is deemed to be cool and respected. Ironically, for men the term is stud, for women it would be slut. Everyone wants to just score every now and then; people seek opportunities, some exploit the goldfish-theory. Goldfish theory is: say in a fish-tank, ...

Is PPF Too Good To Be True ?

Hi Folks, Every time I talk to my brother we get into high-frequency conversations and talk about a lot of stuffs including money. Biologically I'm elder but if put in simple terms; I'm the muscles and he's be the brains. Our duo has been very remarkable from the very beginning. Pranjal is an inventor naturally; since he was in 3rd grade, he made astonishing discoveries & invented countably many tools which came handy in day to day life and became popular in our vicinity and school. He used to invent things (the prototypes) and I used to come up with the modifications (commercialization). Even today I do not take a single step without discussing with him and taking his consent. An elder brother couldn't be more proud to have such a prodigious younger brother. Getting back to the topic for today; I wish to understand deeply as to why Pranjal thinks PPF is a big bubble that government is pulling in front of our eyes . Pranjal's decision making includes intr...

Key to Successful Professional Life

Often we wonder about a good pay believing a good pay yields a good life.  If put bluntly, we desperately long for a better pay. While it is no wonder that money can solve a lot of problems in day-to-day live, there are still many things that calls for background check. For instance, if you give a beggar a grand, he'll most likely end up being a beggar after few months, point here is he/she doesn't has the mind-set. Most common mistake we all do when we start our career is we embed this information deep in our brain that your brain starts working for money. Probably you all must have heard it from people around you; and probably rejected the idea (What chances do I have with the same thought! - I wonder). Funny thing is, believe it or not at some point of time you'll realize. It is better to live a life of ' Oh! Well... ' than ' What If!! '. Do what you love to do; do it with passion; and the money will follow Pretty simple; yet the...
