NEED IT ! A Success Mantra

If you need something badly enough,
that you go and fight for it,
you work day and night for it,
you give up your time, your peace,
and your sleep for it,
All that you dream and scheme is about it and
life seems useless and worthless without it.
if you would be glad to sweat for it, fret for it, and plan for it,
and loose all your terror of opposition for it.
If you go after the thing that you want with
all your faith, hope, confidence, strength, sagacity,
And strong pertinacity, and if neither cold,
poverty, famine, Gaul, pain
and sickness of body can keep you away from the thing that you want.
If dogged and grimed you besiege and beset it and finally with the help of god you will achieve the thing that you desire.

Life = Money + Bribe

The journey starts with a token payment in Labor room,
Officer issuing birth certificate starts the count with his part of share,

To let us know about numbers and subsequent mathematics techniques
We need to win the number (Money) game at the education center’s entrance.

Before I start to fill my wallet with my own money,
I should fill somebody else’s with borrowed money to get a job.

“Survival of the Fittest”, the saying may be true
Either one has to feed people who depend on him for survival or
He has to feed the fittest for his survival.

The journey moves with all sorts of maintenance expenditure

The death god won’t allow you to skip the law of life without his share,
Yes, pay the exit toll with a Rs 1 coin in your fore head.

Feeling Alone and Standing Alone

Many days I have been asked to stay late at office
And on weekends too to work for unfeasible deadlines
I felt being screwed up.

Because of boss’s false commitment,
The blame(s) will fall on my head,
I felt being besieged

There were days pouring with
lots of appreciation for my work,
But not on my appraisal
I felt being fooled and cheated

With the name of recession, firing season starts,
Once appreciated as a good performer,
now the reason in pink slip says
“On performance basis”,
No clue, whatsoever,
now I am in the road side,
Now I’m not only feeling alone but also
Standing alone...

Sitting in Office @ Night

Here I am sitting in my office @ night…
Thinking hard about life
How it changed from a maverick collage life to strict professional life…...

How tiny pocket money changed to huge monthly paychecks
but then why it gives less happiness….

How a few local denim jeans changed to new branded wardrobe
but then why there are less people to use them

How a single plate of samosa changed to a full Pizza or burger
But then why there is less hunger…..

Here I am sitting in my office @ night…
Thinking hard about life
How it changed…..

How a bike always in reserve changed to bike always on
but then why there are less places to go on……

How a small coffee shop changed to cafe coffee day
but then why its feels like shop is far away…..

How a limited prepaid card changed to postpaid package
but then why there are less calls & more messages……

Here I am sitting in my office @ night…
Thinking hard about life
How it changed…..

How a general class journey changed to Flight journey
But then why there are less vacations for enjoyment….

How a old assembled desktop changed to new branded laptop
but then why there is less time to put it on……….

How a small bunch of friends changed to office mate
But then why we always feel lonely n miss those college frnz.….

Here I am sitting in my office @ night…
Thinking hard about life
How it changed….. How it changed……..
