Probably the last post of 2016.Since its more than 5 months that I blogged, here is the long list : Going home after ages for Diwali with Shreya, probably 4 years Buying a house in Pune Shifting to the new house. It has a swimming pool nearby. Going to Goa as first anniversary celebration Started using Tread mill and feeling good about it So the list of target achievements for the year as per the EI blog goes like health (exercise, marathon, swimming), finance (home, car) and social (writing book). So achieving 2 / 6 (exercise and home) is great. Have to start working to complete the next 2/6 or probably more in the coming year.I believe that there have been times when I could not realize my potential. But the opportunities are there and you just need to grab them at the right moment.

After noticing Sridhar's post on 10+ years of blogging, I thought of checking my blog's age and voila it's been 10+ years. The blog started when I had completed 2 weeks in Bangalore and started staying in BTM with Puneet, Abhishek and Shwetank. Those were real fun days. We later had Kapoor and Ashish joining the action.Bangalore was an energetic place because one never got tired after a hard days work at office.The 2 year adventure that I had away from home was still with friends I knew since college days. I could know them better when I started staying with them.It was easy for me to stay in Bangalore compared to staying in Ahmedabad, Bombay or Chennai because of our group which was more intact. We had a reunion of sorts in 2010 and 2014.But the magic of 2006-08 cannot be relieved again. When it came to office work, we were still getting trained and I think I actually had my first blast with work in March 2006, the first night out at work.Till then it was fun period an...

Ruchi Love Eating out Blogging Emotional Intelligence workshop Work  This is the order in which things have occured in the last few weeks.Hope these days continue.

I reached Ahmedabad with very sweet memories on 1st June 2015.The reason was the memories of 1990 when I went for Kakaji shaadi and read the first Chacha chaudhary comics.It was a big family union which seems difficult now.We went in the train and I learnt climbing up the seats then.At Ahmedabad, I did not had anything special except being part of the wedding. When I went again in 2009, I lost a global contest at IIM A.But on watching the video of shaadi, few things looked like things of past were still alive and refreshing. I wanted to reconnect with the past this time but this was not to be.To start with veg food all the time increased my craving for non veg food.Office supplied copious amount of ice cream which was good.The non veg food at different restaurants was also good.Working 100 hrs week was also good.But working for no reason made it pointless and it made sense when I left the organization. It helped in several ways by cleaning up my mind,giving importance to good thi...
