I Love You..!

No I am not proposing anyone.. Looking at the title of this post you may feel I am writing this because I cant say it to someone in personal so I am using Internet as the medium to express myself. Nah but thats not the case..

I Love You.. the three golden words which every one in this life expresses to someone or atleast feels like he or she will express it to someone one fine day. There won't be a single person on this earth who has not said I love you to someone or doesn't even has a wish to say it to someone special. Recently I also thought of expressing these three golden words to someone. Now dont ask whether I expressed or I didn't.. Thats not the question that I want to answer and not the reason why I am writing this post. After this thought came to my mind I thought I will write something about expressig these three golden words and so here I am writing on it.

Why is it so important to express these three golden words. Is it like if you dont express the feelings that you have for that special person are not true or is it you have to prove to that person that yes you really love her by saying it and letting her know. Dont you feel that such things are to be made felt not by saying. Your eyes speak and what you want to say through your mouth can also be conveyed through your eyes. But then Why is saying I love You so important.

Sometimes both the partners know that they love each other but then they always keep on expecting that who would be the first one to say those three golden words. The girls I dont know for some weird reason say that even if they like someone they wont be the one to take an approach to say those golden words as they always expect their guy would say it to them someday. But then why wait for that someday to come. Sometimes waiting for that someday can be too late and the feelings that you have for someone would always remain in your heart.

Expressing it by only saying it is not important. Its making the person feel that what you are saying is what you are feeling. Ya it sounds little complicated but then thats how it is. When you feel something for someone its not necessary everytime its only love. It can be infatuation also. But then how you know its love or infatuation. Whats that make us feel no its not just infatuation but its love. You may like many but you will always love one and that one has to be the one to whom you express those three golden words with all the feelings in your heart making that person feel what you are feeling.

Sometimes you always know that the answer after expressing those three golden words is going to be NO but still you feel that you have to express so that in future you dont regret that you didnt even had in you to express to that person. But then if you know the answer why is it still so important to express. Is it you do it for sake of doing it or is it you really do it because you feel like doing it.

I guess making someone feel what you are saying is really very important and someone told me that 'It takes just a moment to change someones mind'. So the way you say I LOVE YOU should be in such a way that it touches that persons heart in such a way that she does changes her mind.

Better to Quit than to get Kicked..!

Few months back I left my 1st job. It was hardly just 3 months and I decided to quit that job. I still remember the day when I had got this job and the amount of happiness that was there on my face. After all it was my first job after completing my MBA and more importantly it was into the field I always wanted to get into after my MBA. Advertising always excited me and I always wanted to get into advertising morever into online advertising but then getting a job into even mainstream advertising when all the students were facing the effects of recession was a kind of gift for me.

But then few months down the lane I quit that job. I know some may feel how could I judge a company on just 3 months time and feel I should have continued a little more. But then the situation wasn't the same as it was at the time of joining the company. The person who interviewed me showed me dreams to join the company but once I joined the profile wasn't the same as it was discussed in the interview. I told my self that its ok I'll adjust myself in this profile as even then there were no jobs there in the market due to recession. Client Servicing is what excitied me to take up this job but for 3 months I was doing only telesales job. The motivation level in the company among me and my colleagues was 0.

But then even this wasn't the reason for me to leave the job. I had adjusted myself and told myself I will continue till the time I can. But then one fine day the HR fired 2 of my colleagues who had joined along with me telling them that they cant come to the office from tommorow as the company has decided to terminate them. It wasn't fair as the company expected a weeks notice if someone wanted to leave the company and then how can they just ask someone not to come from tommorow. As it is there was enough pressure earlier and this incident just builded up the pressure. The same day I decided that its time now I should say good bye to this company as I never wanted the company to tell me that I cant work in the company from tommorow rather I would walk out of the company with my own dignity.

By Gods grace I did got another job very soon and morever this time I got into Online Advertising which I always wanted to get into. It was a hard task for me to convince the MD of my current company the reason behind why I was leaving my earlier job in just 3 months time but then I did succeeded in convincing him. I have no regrets today. But as it is said that you never forget the first things that happen to you I would also never forget my first job even though it lasted just 3 months. Some may feel I took a very early decision and should had given myself a little more time, some may feel I wasn't able to take the presssure and so I quitted, some may feel that I left just because my other friends also decided to quit. Whatever others may feel I still dont regret my decision and feel that It was better to QUIT then to get KICKED...!

Why I did MBA...!

Pratik Khot.. MBA in Marketing.. sounds good. I never thought when I was a kid that anytime in my future I would go on and complete my education in MBA. It feels good now as I have completed it.. But after completing my MBA studies when I was sitting ideal without any job a thought came to my mind that Why I did MBA...? And when I actually thought over it I didn't had a proper answer to this question.

Because I never aspired to be a management professional or pursue management degree when I was a kid not even when I was about to complete my graduation. Then why MBA... were there no other courses that time.. there were many other courses.. I had the option of doing MCA or MSc IT.. Was it because my friends did it.. no that cannot be the reason because at that time I was the one among my friends who initiated and told everyone tha they should also go for MBA. Was it because I didnt got a quick job after my graduation in IT as I never sat for any of the campus interviews.. But then later I did got a job which I left in 2 days time giving the reason I wanted to prepare for MBA entrance exams.. Was the reason that my parents always wanted me to do MBA but that wasn't the case as my parents were happy for me being an IT graduate and they wanted me to start earning and be more responsible in life. Was it like my dad had too much money and so I thought I would spend that in a better cause by atleast getting one more degree but then if that would had been the case I wouldn't had have to take loan to pay my MBA fees. Was it like I was going towards where thousands of other students were going after completing their graduation. But I wasnt the one who made decisons looking at what the crowds do.

So many possible reasons but then why did I choose to be a MBA proffesional. I still cant figure out what the actual reason was. May be all of these reasons were partially the actual reason for me opting to become MBA(hope you got what I meant by that line) or may be not.. Whatever the reason was but today I am a MBA.. Today I dont regret my decision.. I am happy with what I have in my hands.. I have a decent job with a decent salary.. Getting into MBA is difficult(the entrance exams would make you mad as the competition there is really tough) but once you get into MBA college then getting the degree is simpler. I hope a day will come when I will figure out the exact reason why I did MBA and I will rewrite this post once again with the same heading - WHY I did MBA...!
