Polish Your Luck...!!!!!

Friend :“ek baat puchu..

faltoo ki hai..

wt u doin? ..

wasie..”



Me: “Surrogates movie..

waiting ki kahin kisi post par panga shurru ho..

taaki comment bazi kari jaye :) ”



Friend: “ :-P

acha...

temme hw do u think.. one cn improve 1s luck

lame ques i kno'but jst ans.. ”


How simple, it was to face this question when asked by one of my very good friends. But, later when I sat down and actually contemplated about it, I realized that how simple-simple matters combine to make one excessively complex process… as complex as reaching the shore of Success of one's ambition.

Luck… Luck… what is this damn luck which we scream about… have nightmares of…!!


Wikipedia says -- Luck or Fortuity is a belief in good or bad fortune in life caused by accident or chance which happens beyond a person's control. Luck is significant in everyday life. It is an unknown and unpredictable phenomenon that causes an event to result one way rather than another.

But, is it really limited to this much only?


Naaaaaah… for me, Luck is a factor playing an important role in achieving success, like a catalyst it works… where another factor is Hard work. It is not just one’s luck which is going to make someone successful, in fact, it’s a balanced product of ‘Hard work’ with ‘Luck’, to say analytically,


Hard work * Luck = Success


But, this seems to be just a general product… what do I mean by Balanced product?
Yes, this is just an ordinary equation… By balanced product I mean to include the inequalities too. In actual, an inequality equation is what limits this product, suppose, the product of these two factors which yields ‘Success’ in one’s short/long term goal is ‘X’.


Then, the inequality which governs is that ‘No Success’ will be the result until the product follows the inequality given below,


X < (Hard work * Luck) <>


In other words, ‘Success’ will come only when,


(Hard work * Luck) = X


Where, X = the product of ‘Hard work’ with ‘Luck’ which yields ‘Success’. And, is the most appropriate value which is constant for one individual but may vary from person to person. And, the variable factors are ‘Hard work’ and ‘Luck’ for every individual task.


Another, question that arises is how exactly is ‘Hard work’ and ‘Luck’ are correlated?



There are three cases in one’s life when pertaining to a situation as in image below:




  • Case I: A lot of hard work and no luck.
  • Case II: A lot of luck but no hard work.
  • Case III: A balance of hard work with your luck.

In above cases, I and II are useless because the result will be simply ‘No Success’ whereas in III output is ‘Success’. So, for success you need to strike the right balance.


Now, when the luck is prominent then it is easy to put in hard work, in comparison to, when the hard work is present but no luck can be seen, what should be done when one lacks luck and is tired of putting in efforts and start believing that all is for vain.

NOW, YOU NEED TO POLISH YOUR LUCK !!


Yes, you read it right and how exactly are you going to do so,

  • Black Magic?
    Cut a few lambs, light a few candles, wait two fortnights for a full moon and to apply some necromancies to get your good share of luck working. Naaaaaaaaaaaaah… it wont do…
  • Praying?
    Going to church/temple/mosque everyday, feed the skinny Brahmins, donate some sheets and money, coconut water bath? Would praying and wishing to your god for good luck work? I’m sure this might work after all involves god’s buttering and all… But, really it doesn’t.

I know a way it can be done, but for that I need to be dead sure that you are desperate for it. For now, I shall take your word that you will go up to any extent and would step back.

First, ask yourself how badly do you want a change? Are you and body in sync for this change? Is it really your decision to change or is it that because you have lost to your situations and want to runaway?

Once, you do all this and have a positive answer… from the very moment start to,

IGNORE YOUR LUCK!!


Confused?

Naturally… how luck works is, you pray for it, you beg or go to any extent for it, the more you’ll do so the more you’ll repel it. Not convinced? ... Have you seen any rich business man or successful entrepreneur crying over his damned luck?

This world is complexly based on a few simple relations but very powerful in nature and application, like,

  1. Law of Absolute Equilibrium. (In terms of fate)
  2. Law of Attraction.

  • Absolute Equilibrium: deals with absolute equilibrium in what a person had, has or will have in future. And at the same time, keeping equilibrium in past, present and future lives.
  • Law of Attraction: deals with what you ever experienced, faced or will attract in future to yourself, is the result of what and how you are thinking in present.
    The more negative you think, the more deeply, attached with strong emotions you feel negative about a matter will lead you to more negativity in life.

Suppose, you hate standing in queue and curse everyone whenever you wait then, in actual, you are thinking about the people ahead of you and the queue, everything which is going in your head is just queue & this is what you will attract more, be it metro train tickets, movie tickets, bill submission, red lights or traffic jams.

But now, this doesn’t mean that if all the time you think about money only, then you’ll manifest the same. It works in three steps,

  • Request
  • Visualize
  • Receive


Now, the ways to get this luck thing get started, all you have to do is,

  • Set an idol, it can be your parents, god or any XYZ thing.
  • Before starting your work or new assignment, just once wish for a better luck and then feel what your work would result into if you had all the luck required.
  • And, then keep everything aside and start your hard work, where step 2 is the last time you think about the results or luck until you get the results physically.

Keep this in mind, luck is like a bitch, the more you lose to it, the more u will sulk & the more you overpower, it will become your under-dog. Also, it doesn’t work overnight as one may expect, it’s a change often happens at a snarl’s pace… So, make this change your habit.

Now, let’s do something to kick start ‘Luck’ in your life,

Know yourself – for this, you should yourself inside out, make a note of yourself; know your limits and your weaknesses. Check out the following links to know about a sun-sign in detail,


Believe yourself – Everyday, go to mirror and say a HI to yourself, admire self and thank your god for giving everything. Don’t forget to give yourself a hearty smile before leaving. It may sound foolish to do, but always keep this in mind that you are on a path to change yourself and your luck and such menial tasks should not bother you at all.


Organize yourself – Keep your senses open, talk to people, make note of things you have to do further, in reference to Fair n Lovely Funda.


Free yourself – Free yourself from all the hassles like, He commented this, he said that… today this happened and tomorrow that might.


Like yourself to Fullest – If you feel like jumping then jump, you wanna dance then dance… but always keep a check to recourse to your normal-self and continue with your work.

Remember,

To run a highway, you don’t need to know the whole road,
Just look up as far as the light goes, rest will unravel on its own.

I’ve given you the first step… Now, you have to climb the staircase… Staircase to Wisdom, Happiness and Success.

Also,

Kuch aacha hone se pahle bahut bura hota hai…


Believe in self, thank your god and love your family.

Cheers.

"Fair n Lovely" for Life.... !!

"Woh jab bhi delhi aata hai... ghar zaroor aata hai...", she said with a heartily smile on her face... happiness beyond any limits... and eyes full of Love which seemed to be so Pure that i could have bet even Heaven on that.

"Hey... that's sweet, lucky you... isn't that Lovely..??", i said with rather a fake smile bcoz i was still entangled in that lustrous Chevrolet Captiva.

"yup it is... :))", she smiled again and had a glance at me... Just to realize i was busy checking out that girl next door.. ;)

Now call it the general sense of jealousy or whatever it was.. She was smoking hot like a pot... ;)

"Fir Kya Hua", Abhay, my friend asked, as all this time i was narrating in the filmy style, all what had happened between me and Saloni in last 24 hours...

"Fir... she left aur kya... man, these girls are sometimes such a big pain in....", I was interrupted by Abhay, "Bhai, Family audience bhi baithe hai yahaan.... Hushh....!!!"

"Hmmm... right he said...", i said to myself... Anyway, this wasn't the first time it was happening.

About Saloni... hmmmm.. height, ummm.... 5'5" i guess... complexion fair.. figure **-**-** (family audience).. Hmm.. what else do u really care for in a girl.. ;)

Anyway... it was time for our band performance, so.. smoked the last joint.. and...

"LETS HIT IT GUYS !!!....", we screamed at top of our lungs... and walked over to the stage!!
.
.
.
.


"We Lost... WE LOST Yarrr", i said... in a quiet a sulking tone.

"Koi baat nahi Rocky.. i know, your the very best... judges might have been bribed... there's no way anyone can outstand you... I know you'll win it some place else... I believe in you.. I Love you Rocky... I Love you... Bilkul bura mat feel kar tu... we all are here n with you...", she said.. with intermittent pauses in between...

I could clearly realize... she was crying... i was the one who had lost it all and she was the one who was crying... was this love ?? why was she crying.. why the hell was she so much depressed..??

"Bache... aap ro rahe ho... areeee.... nahi.. aree.. it was just a competition yarr.. Haar gaye toh kya hota hai.. Accha hua, waise bhi competition was too low, jeet kar bhi aacha nahi lagta and i'm sure woh Takkluu Judge was biased... I could see in his perverted eyes, the way he was looking that Lead Singer...", i tried to say it in a more cheering manner...

Now i must tell you what exactly she is, Saloni... Not just a piece of meat that every guy wants to have... Not just another girl in someone's friend list... She's my Saloni... Rocky's Saloni... A final year student... Daughter of Retd. Brig. Amrindar Singh Ahluwalia... A rehabbed drug abuser... A girl who rose from the very ashes of life and came to into existence as my love of life when there wasn't even a single place for feelings left out.

And who's Rocky ??... Just a plain simple guy... habitual of Performing in Band Competition, Lead guitarist... That's me... a little complexly simple.

Many times i have seen... People crying... people sulking on their personal lives... giving up themselves to Drugs, Cigarettes and Alcohol... so as to avoid the very feeling of being lonely when actually such acts make them one... They look for options... which degrade them... make them so cheap that they look forward to such mendicant acts...

Really.. what a fool they make of themselves... i am no exception to them either... but at least i was able to realize that... somehow... Had it not been her.. i could have never done that... n all thanks to her simple but really useful funda... The "Fair n Lovely" for Life.
.
.
.
.
.
.

She had found a very general solution or definition to be Happy.. :)
To beautify one's life... his soul... the aura around him... The Feeling of Well-being around him.. Really i was so amazed, she had a solution to all this.. !!

She proposed... simply, Divide the things around you in two parts...
  1. Things which make you feel Happy and make you feel so good that you just start loving your life. they could be like anything... like doing drugs, meeting your friends.. chilling out with them... drinking... smoking... Talking on phone for hours and hours... making robots... Msging Msging Msging... Cheating in exams... Beating up guys... Making out with your lover... Chatting... or simply, Pooja Paath.

  2. Things which you and people directly associated to you (like your parents and close friends) believe to be beneficial for you...

These are the only two things you should be doing... And that's the only Concept of "Fair and Lovely" for Life...

"Fair" are the things which are beneficial for you and people around you for whom you care and "Lovely" are things which make you feel good and make it Love your Life... And all one has to do in his Life is, the Union of the Fair and the Lovely things... that means.. do things which are duly accepted in these two appellations... Things which lie both in Fair and in Lovely.. This is the only and the best thing which can make you do something other than sulking, make ppl around you Happy, which in turn, will make you Happy.


Application of this everyday will surely beautify your life...

Really, i wondered... this little charming girl said what great lines... Isn't this something we all need to at this point of time when we are so depressed and fed up of our lives... Still, Muddled in the pain of deciding what to do... still wallowing in the dirt of some shitty piggeries... stuck in the gallows !!

Wouldn't this work out.. ???
wouldn't it solve all the problems we have...

I'm just a simple guy with average brain power and average thinking... A graduate in studies of Music... I've never done any work on philosophy and i am no doctor or engineer...
All i know is I love that Girl... and She's always right... and the same i would like to say to you... Realize this Funda and apply to beautify your own life..


A Moral is like a Coral with the Only diffrence bieng,
Coral beautifies one's body and a Moral, it beautifies one's Life.

The Stranger

Beep Beep Beep...

"
Kya hai... din bhar ungliyaan hi chalate rahte ho.. kabhi laptop par.. kabhi cellphone.. kabhi haath pair bhi chala liya karo !!", my mom exclaimed as the phone kept ringing..

"
no way.. u cuming.. v not knw anything", said sonam.. God, she has done language course in French... but often i believe it could have been better had she done a course in English... anyway...

"
Yaar... Nahi yaar... =/ ", "Aacha fine.. in what time ??", "Damnit... in just 15 mins... !!", I said after a few useless replies from her side except "Someone special is coming"..
.
.
.
.
.

"
Yaar.. yeh Sejal kabhi time par nahi aati hai.. kya karun mein iska.. !!", said Sonam with touch of Kali Mata's anger in her eyes, for a moment even i myself was wondering if she's gonna really kill her or is it me who's going to get the beating.

"Arreee.. kuch mat kar.. chill maaar.. she knows, we need to spend a lot more time alone", I said with a strikingly distinct flirty tone.

Hey Hey.. Nothing like that i love to flirt (actually i do).. But its simple that i cant afford to be serious when with them... Little Sweethearts they are... I hope their Boyfriends are not reading this... ;) :->

Hmmm.. So.. Finally they Arrived.. Sejal and The Special One..
Hmmmm.. She was... really.. Impressive... a very appealing suit, white in color.. hair pulled back.. lip gloss.. aaahh.. what an impressive girl.. but.. ummmm... But i wished she was like in structure.. anyway.. a real good girl.. i could notice some flesh too.. but had i indicated that earlier i would have been hanged... !!

Hmmm.. I was seriously smitten by the looks... And then Sejal introduced her... "Nikhil.. this is Ridhima... Ridhima.. THIS is Nikhil", pointing at me as if i had committed a felony.

I immediately offered a hand... didn't want to lose the very chance to get the first touch
and the first words dropped down from those lovely glossed lips, "Ohh.. toh yeh hai Nikhil... !!" as she shook hands with me.

We grabbed ourselves some place to sit... Luckily i got the couch... man, what a lovely couch it was.. :D

So, it was Sejal and Ridhima in front of me.. and Sonam besides me..
Honestly Speaking... I wasn't able to get my eyes off her which left me with no option and no sense of what was happening around me and there she said, "I'm really shocked... the guy who was unstoppable in chats, is so so so quiet in person..."

Anyway... we kept chatting.. here n there.. this n that.. n then she said.. "Yarr... i gotta go... its late.. !!" so, somehow we convinced her to tell a lie to her parents and forge out some time... :)

And, in all this i really could not help imagining her.. WOW !!
it was fun.. thodi se face reading.. thodi se assumptions.. thode se tukke.. :)

All the time i was praying.. "Yaar kaash yeh single ho..".. "Please.. koi past na ho.." "Please Please Please.. !!"

Anyway... This is how she came across to me for the first time... We started Chatting on FB too.. Initially i was holding back a lot when i used to chat.. taking care of little little things, etc etc...
But later, after few months i realized... I don't need to do all this... Awesome Chick hai.. Single bhi hai... Hit maarne ka sahi mauka bhi hai... Lets just go for it..

But.. But.. But.. Shes Pretty Smart... i could figure out that... so i thought to give it a little more time... and this was the golden period when i realized what exactly she is..

Beneath her thick skin... lies a very soft hearted girl.. Beneath her peppy talks lies a lady who can be unimaginably strong n matured... Beneath her "JI JI" thing lies an extremely naughty girl... Beneath herself... lies the Ridhima...

Sorry Darling... Can't really say much for u.. coz there's a lot more to know about you... !!



And Readers... This is not a heartfelt sentimental blog... This is just because i lost a bet and i was forced to write it!! :D

But, in any case i loved to write it... :))


Chaaao...

We need... ??

post..... :|

Post... !!! :O

POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x-(

I need a new post... i need to write a new one... anyhow... anything... Stuck in such bizarre moment, i lay down... thinking... but still not coming up to any conclusion... heavy head kept screaming which echoed more than anything else, why should i?? whats my reason?? do i have my resolve yet??

I tried answering these question, tried to get the most reasonable and such an answer which would pose me as a great guy... with awesome sense of living... etc etc..

But really, i was stuck at only one thing... I realized that i was only trying to run away... run away from the depths of being incomplete... from the world where everything comes to a halt after sometime... be it the success coming up, be it free caller tune service, be it that pretty girl/guy who you met a week before... everything will come to an end... and i kept running away from all of it.

Running away from accepting the fact that this Blog Funda is temporary and will soon wrap up... Running away from accepting that this can happen with everyone... Running away from every reality which comes crashing down to pulverize my lies.

Really, But is this the case with others too??
Are we all running from something?? Are we all afraid of something??

Trying to hide from our very own existence... Ignoring someone just for the sake of not seeing that one puny thing, that one insignificant person which might provoke us, who might release us from the shackles of our control and consciousness..!!

Why... do us, we Humans... possessor of Tiny Insignificant Heart n Mind, have to think about matters around us... matters which we know can't be resolved but yet whose solution is as easy as 1+1 = 2.

Why do we need to attach ourselves with people and their things that later we end up crying over our muddled lives with some grains left in hand.

GOD !!!..... aren't ppl around us getting more n more depressed with every passing moment??
Yes.. they are.. Yes.. ppl are not good.. Yes.. ppl are depressed with themself... Yes.. ppl do hate others... Yes... Yes... YES !!

But, is that going to change the reality?? will that change the fate of that person??
Of course not... but still, see... we run away from accepting the reality... and still, we tend to find bits of comfort in our devastated relationships... Still, we tend to pose high-fi and then later cry over the phone...

So Hollow........ So Weak....... Unimaginably worthless.....
What kind of ppl we have transformed into... no one is happy... nobody cares... and still no body is ready to Accept.. Accept the Pain, the Pleasure... the Resurection, the Demolition...We Shun... but still we have to Show.. !!

God... how wasted we are.. !!

English Project File

Cleaning my place.. throwing some old stuff out.. clinging to resolve -- AAJ TOH SAAFAI KARKE HI RAHUNGI !!!

Mom found one very interesting file... English Project File... Weird naa.. exactly.. that's what i exclaimed when she handed it over to me....



Seriously... i was flipping through it.. first thing in it was related to Fire Alarm, which my bro had made in XI class... then the main file started.. topics were..
  • Cuttings on people.
  • Cuttings on environment.
  • Cuttings on offers.
  • Cuttings on Science Facts.
  • Bar Graph of Marks in Term 1 and Term 2.
  • Nature Poem.

I flipped... flipped.... flipped... with a big smile on face, which left mom perplexed with what was going through my mind !!
She kept on asking, "Hass kyun Rha hai !!... hass kyun rha hai.. !! "

But, now how do i make her understand... that even i didn't had any inkling about it... in fact, i wasn't even listening to what she said... lost in my own world, i was just flipping..

From cuttings of some "Smart Survivor in maze of politics" to cutting from "Obituary".. from "Noise levels during Diwali" to "Reasons to keep Air Clean"... i was just flipping, rather going through at ultra fast pace.
skipping the science section and marks distribution graph.. i directly came onto the Poem part...
still wondering if i wrote it... and, if i did then when..

Anyway, i read it.. "Here it Comes"... appellation of the poem.. and the next thing in mind was, "Yeaaa.. of course.. here it comes, hogi koi pakaaau, bakwaas shayari meri phir se !!.. "



Here it comes, here it comes,
Sun is down, calm and sound.

Here it comes, here it comes,
ringing bells in sea-shells, scaring away the red knights of sun

Here it comes, here it comes,
night is falling, showing her face to mankind.

Here it comes, here it comes,
Here it comes, here it comes.

"Ninth !!!!!!... i wrote this in ninth.. mann.. !! did i had any talent back then.. ??", questioning myself i was smiling... i recalled... it was back then, when the teacher had asked us to write a poem (no cheating) and present it in class... i still remember, how proudly i stool among the other 5 people.

:)) ... to be honest, i never had been good in scoring... always believed in education with a little twist, its not like i never knew or understood whats going in class or no idea of the subject... but it was just that i was more of a recreational guy... Marks ke peeche kaun pade !! (which still reflects in my CGPA !!)

By now, i was able to recall every moment when i wrote it... it was evening, looking out from my room's window... i kept on scribbling in the notepad, every tits n bits of matter that could strike my mind.. still struggling hard with words (first time tha yar... words never come easily..) !!
Anyway, after 1000 cuttings and paragraph positioning.. i was able to compose this one..

And, the best moment was when my teacher asked, "Nikhil, you wrote this.. !! NO.. i can't believe it.. !!" and then i ran to grab that notepad, flipping out the pages for the one i needed... and then with a Confidence full of Pride, i present a page, full of Cuttings, twisted words, spelling mistakes and i say, "Ma'am, this is the rough i did... Mein sachi bol rha hun... maine hi likhi hai..." and then when ma'am accepted.. and i swaggered down the class to my last bench.. !! -- this was the moment, when i had my first ride with words... since then it has changed a lot (for better i guess)... things, people, matters, emotions... but still, there's one thing... which didn't change.. it was ME!!

Its not just me... if u look around yourself... so many things have changed... Talk about that tall building which was eating dust a few years back or talk about that abandoned flat where the new girl lives... be it the new car of Mr. Mehra or new cellphone of Ashi... Everything's constantly changing... its just you, who has been keeping his identity for such a long time now... So... ultimately, i urge to find yourself... deep in you... do exactly what u like to do... one will find it foolish to follow.. but, one day you'll realize.. that when u look back into your memory bank, it's such weird and unreasonable things only, which show their face and leave a smile... !!

Confusion

Strange appellation to this post... right ??
Yes sir, it is... in fact, i was confused until the very last moment of publishing this post !!

To have a look people around me, we have maths champs... extremely outgoing ppl... authors... druggists... cooks... journalists... dancers... doctors... in overall, we meet a plenty of people, masters of their field with experience ranging from zero to infinity.. And in present times, where there is such a rat race... such strong competition going on... its really hard or should i say baseless to aim low, everyone wants 100%, everyone wants to be in the top cream, everyone strives to be the master...

But ever cared to meet a jack of all trades... you must have never met a person who could do everything, if not completely but still upto some good amount... And has ever anyone or you have thought of being just a Jack... A Jack of Everything.. ??

I have, i want to be one... I don't want to wait for the electrician to fix the lights for me... I don't want myself running down when my phone dies... I don't want kick my CPU when its full of viruses... I don't want to stay quiet if someone resorts for my help in any matter...
But, i do want to serve my guests with the best style possible, i want to be center of attraction when comes to problem solving and all i want is ability to fix or at least try to fix any vagrant problem... But, then at the same time...getting such ability is really difficult.

Right from the start, we are taught to be master of one and rely on others for different matters.
But, even that's not entirely bad, its good to be social & ask others for help... But isn't it good to have an idea of everything on your own too??

Why are we taught to do things & keep sticking to them until we are master of them and when you have mastered it then keep pursuing the same thing up your entire life... Why does one has to become one thing in life, can't he be multi-dimensional??

Is it necessary to be stuck in old dirt?? Why can't we experience all the faces of life we want to??
Why can't we just DO things, GAIN from it and GO forward in life, to do some other thing?? and make ourselves exposed to so many things, realize matters and gain knowledge... make ourselves tougher !!

Coming onto another aspect... there are two parts of society... like, of a house, the upper part and the lower part.

Upper part -- the walls, the floors... anything above the ground.

Lower part -- the Foundation... those few feets of Brick-work, on which the whole upper part is standing... the raising platform.

if u look more closely, u'll realize that every season the upper parts get a new paint job, plastering.. care, love and appreciation.
and, lower part... nobody looks at it... bas... ek baar bana dia and bhool gaye... But look at the irony of it, if u'll remove it then the whole building will come crashing down... Those few bricks, subjected to eternal darkness, stress and pressure.... all that just to make the building stand better... Clearly, The brick of the foundation needs to be tougher than the ones used for structure.

Similar way... is the side of Masters and Jugaados... Masters make up the face of the society... and Jugaado ppl make up the lower part.. nobody appreciates them, but still they are necessary, they are the ones who know a lot.. But still.... anyway, these Jugaad ppl need to be more stiff-minded.. and so they are.

but, if i ponder over it further... Exposing myself to various professions will make me resource full for sure.. I will gain a good stand as "JUGAADO" in society, i will make enough money i need to sustain myself...but will it get money so that i may level up from just sustaining?? will it get me the name, the respect i desire in society, will it benefit me and my upcoming generations...???

That's something everyone nowadays is facing... A choice !!... and to be honest many of us don't even have a slightest idea of how to get through it...

Should i pursue a dream which makes me happy, makes me feel much more suited, makes me feel free.... or should i think of my family, think of my upcoming kids, think of money and do a job which will simply suck out everything i have, every bit of life and throw bundles of note on my face... ??

it really shakes me up sometimes and leaves me with a questions... rather a choice.. of pride or freedom??? dignity or family?? money or happiness?? responsibility or... myself??
