So, I updated this very fancy blog of mine saying “look who’s
back” and I’ve been trying to come up with something ever since, what to
write!?
Loss of topics, was it? Contrary to that – As the ones that
read this will know that I am extremely opinionated, which basically means. I
have too many things to write about, really! Now to decipher that is a
herculean task in itself!
And to make matters worse, last week was quite eventful (or
uneventful... Whatever you want to call it)
So, here I am trying to come up with something random. And in-between
I check on work – emails, phone calls, listening to Pitbull amidst all this.
Get the picture?!
Having said that, the thing that has been lingering on my
mind is “Discipline”, and I used to hate this word back in school (I used to get
pulled up for random shit and they called it “Discipline Issues”)
So what about discipline? I ponder, when we grew up with
certain things we did as a part of our childhood. And I am not even going to
mention any of that.
As grown-ups, we have our job, both at home and at work.
Most times, the things that fall into the “discipline” bucket are not often
checked for sanity. Someone lays the rules, someone else delegates the “job” to
someone else and then it gets done (or so we think). One fine day, things come
down crumbling like a pack of cards and that’s when we realize that these are
caused not because of someone’s inability to do the job but because of lack of
discipline to check if everything was being done the way it should.
And every person, job, business have their discipline which
is unique to them and they always need to revisit them to make sure they are
in-line to their vision for themselves/their business or their family.
I still remember, In Dell, Addy One of my best friends (then
CEC who I hated the most) used to have an email signature, In God, We trust.
Rest, we monitor.
Oh well, I write this today because, hey – It’s Monday and I’ve
had a pretty crappy day. Because, I was undisciplined. :-)
