Another year gone……

The Christmas time is here. Soon we will see the end of the year 2008. We all will celebrate in some ways to welcome the New Year 2009. Its time for me take my diary out and see what I have done through out the year. This is appraisal time for me. No, I am not talking about yearly appraisals in the companies but this is my self appraisal and also the supervisor is me. One needs to set the objective at the start of the year and then take a close relook at it before the year ends. This is what I will be doing for next few weeks.

Well, I had set lot of objectives at the beginning of the year and I have accomplished few of them for sure. In general, you can measure your performance in the year based on various parameters. This could be money, power, life style, time spent with the family, important events in the year, social contribution and so on. This list can go on and on.

We have to be in charge of our own destiny. We need to define objectives and set goals for ourselves. We need to periodically revisit the objectives to see if those are aligned or not. And last but not least, we need to appraise ourselves to see how we have performed. Other wise just like everybody else, we will say ‘what the heck….another year gone just like that..’

Cheers,

Salute to our heroes…………..

Here is my salute to all those people from Maharashtra Police, Army, Navy, BMC Fire fighting department and NSG commandos, who fought the war against terrorists in Mumbai. That was not only attack on India, but attack on our country.

I have no words to say for those who sacrificed their lives for our safety and freedom of common people like us. We are grateful to you and always will be.

Hats of to all of you!

JAI HIND!

Unbeaten 41st Ton……………



He has done it again. Come what may…..let people crib….let them say anything they want to say….but there will be only one Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar in this world. He has scored unbeaten century against England while chasing the victory target of 387 runs.

Incidentally, Tendlya also completed 1000 runs in the calendar year (5th time in his career).


A solid, rocking start was given to the Indian team by Viru and it was followed by brilliant partnership between Tendlya and Yuvi. And not to forget wonderful 66 by Gautam Gambhir.

Great effort guys…………………..

Cheers,
