Confidence, Over-confidence or Arrogance

Something to ponder for a moment.....

What is the real difference between being confident... being over confident and being arrogant ?

My thinking goes like this... When I do a thing again and again and then says I can do it... I am confident..
When I know about something, but without actually finding out what it will take to do it, I say I can do it... I am over confident
When I don't know anything, still I say I can do it.... I am arrogant about myself.... I think... but what is arrogance anyways????

Am I right? Or am I arrogantly wrong??

When Life makes you think

Sometimes when you least expect it, life makes you stand at a place where you have to make a decision or atleast give something a thought that you had never expected to think about a few minutes ago. A little while ago, I was at that position... The bad part is that at that moment you are absolutely alone and cannot talk about it with anyone, and the worse part is you need to talk about it to think clearly. What a dilemma with no obvious solution. Why does this happen, I wonder? Is it coincidence that something like this happens? Or is it because it was planned? Dunno, but its tough and its disturbing. Life used to be so much simpler few years ago :).........

Movie with a message

I have always enjoyed movies that contain a message. These movies never seem to be entertaining and at the end probably you end up thinking and more confused about the topic it deals with rather than come out of the cinema with a smile. But still, I always feel more contended with such movies than typical bolywood masala movies such as kuch kuch hota hai etc. I believe this is because these movies asks the viewer to do just more than sip a pepsi and eat popcorn while watching. Recently, I saw Finding Neverland, a beautiful movie which was touching and at the same time inspiring. These type of movies are rare to find because they lie in between masala and message containing movies. I still am in awe of the lead character in the movie and the realistic portrayal of a man tried to find his inspiration in somebody else. Isn't this what everybody does? Everybody needs to draw inspiration from someone/something else. If you are already where you want to be then there is no fun and certainly no motivation either. So, one needs to look at another person to drive him to achieving something. And I am not an alien :)

Are Blogs for geeks???

Somebody left a small comment a while back about blogs being for geeks>>>> Is it so? Can it really be generalised this way? I hope not, and I certainly don't think so (oh again THINK) and then again geek may mean various things anyways..

My blog is not by a geek and thus, there won't be much geekiness in it either... But, then again, freedom of speech allows everyone to have a say or COMMENT, isn't it?

Working for fun

I wonder sometimes, why do I work, for money, to spend time, for satisfaction ????? what for and why? Maybe all of the above and maybe none. If I look back a few years when i had a choice about what to choose as a career, I chose computers not because it paid well but because I loved playing Formula 1 on it. So, is it the same anymore... Do I still wan't to work in computers because I still playing games (currently Fifa 2005 that I got for Rs1300 yesterday), no maybe not anymore. Now I work because I have to, period. Don't know why but it is a part of my day without which I get edgy... Maybe some day I'll find out why???? but today, I'll go back to other window with lots of pending tasks for me, and stop THINKING.

When I woke up

Hi All,

For the first time.... when nothing seems to be moving, I am thinking about what to do. Then by impulse I think, why not blog..... If I think anyways, why not put it down somewhere. And then I get afraid.... by my own thoughts as I do often, cause the very beauty of thoughts make them scary... you can think and imagine and still nothing really happens. So, thought is the greatest power we have... and it may lead to our DOOM.....

You are welcome in this little space and we shall die together :::::::
