Donation Time !!!

It's time of the year when the Fitness centers gear up for Donations from fitness "freaks" across the globe. In Pune, almost all the Gyms have attractive discounts on annual memberships. New year (01st Jan) is the time everyone is waiting to start the fitness routine !! Since you have waited most of the year to once again start your excise routine, why not wait for 10 more days and start again??? "This time, I am going to be very regular and meet my fitness goals..." This is a very common feeling and thinking with a lot of people. Why not sign-up for the annual membership? and yes, there is 40% discount if you sign-up right now !!! Everything seems to be working out well.

Many of us get into this trap and donate money to the fitness centers. My sincere request is to think more than once before signing-up. I have nothing against the fitness centers, but if I can save at least one person from this voluntary donation, I will be more than happy. There are better places to donate your hard earned money. Fitness is a mission and not an impulse. Make it a habit and commitment to yourself before signing up !!

Stay Fit, Stay Happy !!!

My PMP Experience

Dear PMP Aspirants, I passed the PMP exam last night and thought about sharing my experience with preparations and the actual exam while the memories are still fresh with me. Background - I am a Product Manager with a mid-sized company and managing 'Projects' for about 4 years now. I decided to become a PMP in June-08, purchased PMI membership and started preparing without scheduling the exam. I found all the possible excuses not to complete even one round of reading of PMBOK till May-09. One day received an email from PMI for membership renewal and then realized the importance of scheduling the exam and then studying. On 25th May I scheduled my exam for 25th July (giving myself exact 2 months (60 days) for preparation). Preparation - First thing I did was to buy 'Head First PMP' online and read it from first to last page. Its a joy to read this book. I did not skip any exercise. I think most of my preparation was done in first 15 days with this book. I got Rita's b

Donald Trump - No more an Entertainer...

US presidential race 2016 is getting more and more interesting with every passing day. Most of the people did not expect Donald Trump to get so close to Republican nomination. Somehow Google seems to still categorize news related to Mr. Trump in the 'Entertainment' section. I think its time for Google's algorithm to categorize him appropriately.

Vision 2020 ??? (Please vote what do you think)

Over last few days, three things deeply disturbed me about India’s social and political future. 1.        Child Labor – While looking for a shoemaker for a quick shoe polish, I visited a local road side footpath stall and surprised to see the job handed over by a father to his 4 year old kid. When the child started polishing the shoe, I asked his father, “Why don’t you send him to a school instead?” the man replied, “He does not want to go to school”. This is the state of affairs in India 2012. I do not know the exact numbers but, there are millions of small kids kept away from education, and some of the basic human rights. On the other hand, there is a generation of growing middle and upper middle class kids spending more than 3 hours a day on Facebook and other non-productive activities, spending (wasting) money on luxuries and addictions. There is a widening gap between haves and have-nots which in turn disturbs balance of the society. The ever increasing cost of living make
