Y no post?

My prelude notion was I can blog frequently but its turns out I am not as frequent as I assumed.  Here is a crisp dope of what happened, found out during a tiny soul search.

Many thoughts that I wanted to blog were filtered out at various levels. I have branded this blog with a name so I think I should ONLY write something related to the title. That is a first level of filter. When I get an idea or topic in mind I open a notepad and jump into writing mode, but soon after few lines I feel like ‘who is going to like this?’, honestly, I dislike it after I write few lines!  I feel that is the beauty of my writing, it makes me hate what I do, instantly. Terrific power; Second filter.

Even after passing second filter I feel who's the blog going to help by the way, it turns out to be a blog of social message and I fear that the reader might think who the hell I am to write as if a hardcore social reformer. After all these I use to minimize the notepad window to give a time for myself to review the blog's worth in the future so that I might like it later. Then I realized that is not a great idea as almost all of the time I forget about that minimized notepad so now I am closing the notepad immediately without saving it. No procrastination whatsoever. Hey!

Although my ultra powerful amazingly brilliant blogs could not make into this page, they are helping me like this, with the kind of noise I make with the keyboard at least the person sitting next to me thinks that I seriously type SQL queries all the time. :) 

Is this the way to blog? I don't know for now. Though I wish to write more, I have not read much blogs. But while drafting this piece I have read few blogs and got some new ideas. Hopefully I should be augmenting my  blogging frequency in the future.

I now have an idea to get pass those filters. I gave a name to this blog and will stick to it, all other thoughts not falling in this category will go into a separate blog.  I should not care much about the reader as I don’t know who is going to fall into this page, even accidentally?  Ergo, two filters passed. Don’t know what to do with the second one, but that’s worth a filter if I deal it wisely, so I can let it stay.

Contradiction

Sometimes when I read an inspirational quote or a formula to success, I wonder why most of them are contradictory. I feel just picking one of them and sticking to it might not work for everyone every time. All of them are bound to some context. I think it is useless to follow something bluntly until the context is clear.

If you did not realize that it is useless to follow that old proverb or inspirational quote.

A - “do not plan too much and confuse yourself”, “take life as it is”,  “take life as it comes”, “be a roman in   rome”, “everything is pre-written”

B - “have a vision about your future”, “think ahead”, “be proactive”, “where do you see yourself in 5   years from now?”, “hard work never fails”

Both A and B looks like good set of advice. But a closer look reveals A and B are contradictory to each other. Given a situation, not all of these will hold good to that situation. It takes a wiser mind to figure out which applies to what.

Note: Don’t ask me if I have a wiser mind to suggest this, a food critic need not be a good cook, heard somewhere!!
