I was 34 when i started my graduation. And I worked in a very demanding management job, attended night school.....and was expecting my 2nd baby in the second year...and i was living alone....gruelling experience, wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Yet, I loved the entire 2 1/2 years. Loved every subject. Every bit of knowledge i gained in my class. It was as if a new world had opened up for me. I was like a kid in a candy store...wanted to do everything all at once...! But if i were to choose one piece of knowledge which affected me the most, which changed my life and my way of thinking totally - it was the following quote which was the basis of a full 2 hour lecture in the class titled "Managers and the Need for Self Management".... "Make your behaviour consistant to what you want to achieve". I'm not even sure who put it there...the HOD of the faculty probably...but all of us went thru a lot of introspection and search. Most of us realised that is precisely what we do not do...that usually we do just teh opposite and wonder why we don't get what we hunger after... Think it thru...and you'll see how really deep the statement is and how we unknowingly ignore this very basic and simple law of nature in our everyday life.....

Back to Nature ~Scott Poole I was sitting under a tree. You called me a loser and told me to leave. Feeling dumb, I did. You cut down the tree to help make a log cabin. I came over commenting on the country atmosphere. We talked and had pine needle tea. Being comfortable we quickly got bored and decided to organize an environmental march. We made signs out of your paper and cut sticks from your woodpile and marched but no one noticed and the effort quickly died so we got drunk and watched the march on tv. Then you fell asleep, dropped your smoke and your house burned down.
