The first place I worked with interest and seriousness – VGCS..It has taught me a new way to perceive LIFE..."You can't turn back the clock. But you can wind it up again".. A famous saying of Pruden...The practical essence of it I realized in VGI..Every second is important and so much is happening in this world in a second's time ...
Seldom have I used this word – deadline, in the 21 years I have spent in this world...But from the moment I stepped into VGI it became part and parcel of my day-to-day life...Dreams of missing deadlines haul me almost everyday...Am sure it is totally out of your scope if u have never heard about this :)
Sometimes I question myself if I am scared of these deadlines and will I succumb to its severity?? But I pacify myself that its going to be the order of the day till the moment I send my "Final e-mail" ( u might wonder what it is...just another frequently used keyword in VGI)...
But is it only in VGI that we face this deadlines??? Well...don't ponder much.. Unknowingly most of us face some sort of deadlines in our day-to-day life :) Some real life examples... catching a train just about to leave the platform...hmm this is the situation when u are in short of seconds to meet the deadline (reminded of Jab we met...The multitude of emotions in Kareenas face...Wow!!), next the hurried homework we did in our school days..after all ur efforts u end up doing imposition for submitting it late:) , and a split-second's difference resulting in missing a catch in cricket, are typical scenarios... You will be filled with thoughts in such situations...will I catch the train or not? will the teacher appreciate me for my job? Will I play the next match or not? ... These thoughts last for few minutes only and in a sense it is good...next time u ll not worry too much when you miss this deadline..
But ultimately missing the deadline does not mean u are dead .. And thats the reality..Now I have learnt to live with this..And am taking things lighter now and always am ready for the unexpected to happen... Thanks to VGI...every second means a lot more than it seems to be :)

Well said...experiences do teach us a lot..no matter how shitty they are. If they look at the brighter side of things, then the pain of the experience turns to enlightenment. And taking things less seriously, doesn't come easily. Hoping you will handle things with a much cooler mindset henceforth!! Good luck :)
Haan yaar...I am into a good place and just wanna be clogged with this company at least for a few years :)
