Grattitude...(Gratitude + Attitude)

Thanks to R.K for this sweet little award! [Sorry for the delay in putting up this post, RK! I needed some time to nominate others for this award!] Irrespective of how much of an introvert one happens to be, it is always deeply satisfying when one is recognized and acknowledged - in this case, because of one's writings. This award is supposed to be for blogs that show great Attitude or Gratitude or both....! And here are my nominations and they are in no particular order! :-) But, unfortunately, many of the folks in this list don't blog too often :-(

Prashant (Full of gratitude....and noble ideas and thoughts!)
Rakesh (He's got a mind of his own. That means an attitude of sorts)
Asal Tamizh Penn (What a typical South-Indian attitude!)
The Director's Blog (Attitude, I say)
Krish (Epitome of Attitude)
Bengalooru Banter (Attitude, Attitude, Attitude...Think Local, Act Global)
Sarita (A friend with a unique attitude towards life)
Lakshmi (Gratitude for life...nature)
Global-Thought (Immense gratitude for life and the capacity to inspire anyone who drops in!)

Thanks once again for the award, RK! :-)

3,2,1...Go!

This blog would love to meet introspective, life-loving and enthusiastic folks and book lovers. If you are a Plum (PG Wodehouse)/ C&H (Calvin and Hobbes)/Swami Vivekananda/Ilayaraja fan, we may be one of a kind...!

I generally ponder over Life, Spirituality, Knowledge Management (KM) and 'Nonsense' . Creativity, Innovation, Leadership, Ethics, Branding & Advertising, Books, People, Learning, Education, Children, Music, Poetry, Pets, Birds, Paradoxes, Change Management, Travel, and Cartoons are some of the other topics I extend my thinking to frequently....

herE GOes......

I enjoy being creative. Creativity, to me, is the best thing in life...! And...my love for life and learning are two great intrinsic motivators.

I have wanted to be almost everything in the world - a detective, an astronaut, a teacher, a scientist, an architect...a leader...a director, a musician, a painter, a singer, an ornithologist - you name it! To cut a long story short, the only thing I did not want to be was a Doctor! :) But destiny wanted me to be a KM professional. And I love being one!

I have a passion for the paradoxes and mysteries of life! I enjoy and cherish dreaming of magnificient achievements...those that have the potential to make the world a better place to live in!

Some of my all-time favourite quotes

Problems exist only in the human mind - Anthony de Mello

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it!

This above all; To thine own self be true - William Shakespeare

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle - Albert Einstein
