Today, I
made a new discovery about the self. I am a combination of the biggest jerk
ever walked on the face of the earth and the smartest ass ever will round the
earth. Jerk was last night to be dull, and ass was today whole day, finding only I had the key to make myself happy or dull.
Cool. I am
so excited to find this today.
Morning,
till the mid-afternoon, was covered up with the interaction session at NCL
with Villgro,
these people seriously do some social work. They fund, mentor, develop and
build the social start-ups here. I had a bouncy ride in the session though; bit
confused, bit tired, bit excited, bit curious and at last exhausted. The reason
is the business model canvas part of the session. It
is a huge document to prepare before or after starting the business. Actually we
are doing it before.
I had fun
in between the session, people sharing some amazing ideas, funny ways to do
things, market ideas and what not. The gentleman next to me was a founder of
the company who designs the modular bio-gas plants for the food industries. He had
an eighteen month blockage just to figure out the unit economics parameter to scale up his
business. When you’ve left the job and your business is the only source of
income, this really is a blockage to your entire life, but anyhow they fought
and sold at breakeven to get daily life money. Frankly speaking, you’re doomed,
I remember the year of 2011-12, we made huge losses with the first company, and
I was barely having money to get some food for one time in a day. It was a horrible
period of life. Whatever I am doing today to earn some bucks, is maybe out of
that period’s fear. I accept, I don’t want to face it again, as far as
possible. Well, they say in positive psychology, we can use the fears
and pressures to actually pump the motivation. Watch Shawn sometime, he is also a well-known
psychologist, but his TED
talk on the link is maybe the funniest talk I have ever seen.
Anyway, I
saw few known faces too. Seeing some known people actually helps me to feel
secure, feel surrounded with faith and trust, and feel more supported. Don’t know
exactly but perhaps the interdependency pillar of the society translates in
these feeling.
We parted
around three in the afternoon, I came running home and slept for an hour. Woke up
made tea, started where I left last night, read Nicolas’s
revert, opened up the work papers I carried to the session and started writing
down the needed data, learnings and since then was trying to develop new
objectives to discuss with team tomorrow. Finished up at ten, quickly made some
curry soup to eat and then was surfing through job portals to apply to more
things.
So, yes I
had an okay to better day today. Was downloading Maz
Jobrani’s tour videos to watch today. I have had it in mind since I woke
up in the morning that I’ll laugh, as much as I can, so was finding the slopes
in the session, during the work and even during the cooking to search the brain
for all the funniest things I had gone through. This seems working. I am in a
much better and happier stance than last night. Thanks to internet and my
memory I suppose.
Oh, one
more thing, I was noting down the words that had been used today during the
whole session. Some of the most repeated ones are,
SO, YOU
KNOW, WE, SUPPORT, WE HAVE, RURAL, SOCIAL, YOU, START-UP, COULD BE, MAYBE,
CUSTOMERS, DECISION MAKERS
I read on
Norton
Sociology blog that this how we can analyse the group’s think and
attention over the entire session. I guess pretty much all were focussing to be
decisive using the word SO almost
five hundred times. Hmm, maybe the session was on improving the decisions we
make or will be making on the business.
I was listening
to OSHO in the afternoon. But I’ll start writing these stuffs on spirituality
bit later, once I get enough understanding and listeners to hear these stuffs.
Maybe I’ll
open up more, writing the inner of mind. Later!
It is
time to say good night, and start rolling some comedy stuff.
SO, Good night people, Good night Journal, Love you all
and thank you all. Good bye July 2015.
