Do or Don't

"You either do it, or your don't. 'Try' doesn't make sense.". This is the quote I have on my white board today... No reason to have put this up, but just thought about 'Do or Die' and remembered the corporate lecture I attended one year ago. "Do or Die" is all, most of us have heard. There could be different versions to the reason behind the saying. One thing I can say for sure, however , is that 'to die' cannot be a solution to anything at all in life.. I recall from one of the corporate lectures that I chanced to attend last year, "You either do it, or your don't. 'Try' doesn't make sense.". My version:" Do or Don't. Never say Try". Coming to think of it.... This is kind of true. When you DO, often, you are acknowledged. When you DON'T , always, you are noticed. When you TRY, seldom, your efforts are recognized .

On Birthday

:) I just turned sixteen :) Well that is what I want to think always... :) Actually getting older and wanting to get better each day!!!! :) According to some people, Birthday is just another day, with just about the same or similar happenings and experiences.... but coming to think of it.... Isn't birthday a day to - say thanks for a dawn of another new year, - respect parents and friends for what they are and have been till date, - say thanks for what you are, - appreciate yourself, - feel good about yourself, - put some real thought into the wishes you receive , - be glad to have people around, - say thanks for all the good wishes, - reflect on your inner self, - redefine rules, - just 'Be yourself'? You know what? When I read it again, I see that we can be this way, every day... :) It's just that it will take time to get this kind of thought into our daily lives, so till then, I think we should count these thoughts in , at least on our birthdays... :)
