Notes to me-self 1

1. The next time you have a spilling urge to belch out a wise-crack, bite your tongue.

2. The next time the alarm rings in the morning, do not cover your head with the pillow.

3. Do not preach.....do not even try to! Seek the light first, not the enlightenment.

4. Next time you encounter an urchin begging you for a rupee, refuse by looking at him in the eye.

5. Vocabulary and etiquette are not benchmarks to distinguish between persons.

6. Try listening to people as you hear them speaking to you.

7. The next time somebody gets the better of you in an argument... wait... take a deep breath.... try to come up with a smarter repartee......if you're not successful, acknowledge his victory with humility.... but in the case you do come up with one....first acknowledge his win with sagacity but never let the retort escape your trap. Add it to your 'bag of newly found wisdom'.

8. If you feel you're being taken for granted, try to find out why. Once you know the reason, try to do nothing about it,

9. Decide whether you are aimlessly foolish or foolishly aimless. Decide and let it be.

10. There is only one certainty in life- the self implication of this statement.

11. Don't spend more than ten minutes while typing a blog.
