Being Obedient to Job

Image
When you do a job as a professional writer, you are bound to make some unspoken responsibility, that you will do your best to make the job undertaken viable for your employer, and for your own career advantage. That being said, let your employer feel that he has made a right decision by giving you an opportunity to streamline his core business operations. These days, the commitment to making your job worth the salt for you and for your employer has either transformed into self-centric appeasement of individuals at large or it is no longer a commendable ethical discipline for most. There was a time when commitment shown toward the job in hand was remarkably followed and the enormity of adherence to making your employer's vision success was strongly felt. I mean no contradiction to the current trend of following the same disciplinary motto as exercised by employees. Of course, there are countless of them who think that they should pay utmost regard to the job they are doing,...

How not to talk to anyone

I have been grappling this question for quite some days, and sadly the answer has been elusive to me; though I really worked out harder on finding the answer through the act of self-appreciation of the question the answer of which I wondered if it was worth answering or not.  Anyway, I don’t think that the kind of question that my mind gives birth to has sometimes actually any relevance for the time being, in the given context of my inability to think clearly or hazily some weird ideas which keep hitting my nerve like the blows of Khali hammering down the opponents in the ring cage. Alright let me come to the point – I have been thinking is there any really way, I mean for real, not to talk to anyone? Well, that’s quite understandable if you tend to share your logic, that it’s simply a matter of your willingness whether or not to talk to anyone, and if you don’t show such will, or maintain some stern taciturnity, that’s okay – people will get the drift you are not intere...

Pot calling the kettle black

I was nearly a nut job in childhood. Piked up fights with friends, beat down my classmates and used to steal things like the gregarious bunch of some kleptomaniac freaks. Instead of exercising atonement over my childhood notoriety, I felt elated over vandalizing things on provocation. "If you don't pull up your socks and behave, things will be difficult for you in future," - used to say my mom after some gentle mild rebukes over my mischievousness. "I will beat the shit out of you the next time i hear complain from neighbors. You got my point?" - used to say my father who seemed to lose his temperament the moment he heard complains from people about my intractable childhood mischief. When mom rebuked, it was understandable for me that she was in pain for my action. She is a woman of substance I must say. But when father said something in saintly advisory tone, i simply looked at him in amazement, wondering what made him so wise today. I was unable to get hi...

Tenacity perfects your writing, Here's why

Image
I do not buy credo of the people bloviating that writing can’t be done easily. I had not approved to this thought either, that writing was too difficult a task, and you can't execute your "intangible thoughts" into their factual manifestations as it is demanding, skill-based job which means, it can be done by those having experiential insight in creative writing. As a matter of fact, writing, or content writing, or creative writing is surreal mix of science and art. Therefore, you as a writer, have to get along with your manuscript creatively, in such a fashion demonstrative of the fact that you are unconditionally and passionately committed to it. In the meantime, what I think is a writer should never leave writing holding the baby, just because he is getting fed up with the ill-treatment and mockery his craft receives from naysayers and pedantic critiques. If you ask me, it is unwise to see yourself from naysayer's standpoint. Yeah, you might be thinking...

VLC Fix - How to remove horizontal green lines permanantely

Image
VLC has been the most preferred media players for me, and I have been using it for many years. I switch to its upgraded versions whenever I am prompted to download the updates by the media player (I set it on "update latest version" mode).  At present I am running on my Windows 7 PC the latest VLC media player 2.2.2 Weatherwax (64-bit for my Windows 7-OS). As expected, the upgraded version of VLC runs smoothly on my PC and I am very satisfied with the performance  up until I noticed green horizontal lines on top and bottom of the vlc media player. I thought that's okay to have it as it was not causing any problem as I was watching videos and playing MP3 files without any difficulty. But still I thought of searching for ways to remove the green lines, and I tried some random tips on my own, and eureka - I found the solution. The technique worked for me like a magic and I am sharing it here for my readers, hoping they'd find the tips...

Misconceived Feminism

Image
If someone imperious tries to be misandrist on the pretext of endorsing the doctrine of feminist, he/she needs psychiatric evaluation and those with the chronic disorder of supporting such doctrine must seek psychiatric evaluation as well, in my humble point of view. What is the definition of feminist, tell me that? Is it being supporting someone with female origin regardless of whether her own version of truth stands in the same wavelength of others? Or it is her not being able to handle characteristic flaws and therefore resorting uncalled for denunciation, call someone male by name and wash your dirty linen to media pleading innocence? If you call this feminism, then and with all due respect, I can’t blithely escort to such misguided credo of feminism where ideology conflicts and sex in particular is given undue regards over hypothetical assumption of “patriarchal” society and male dominance, considered to be anathema (as once blithely claimed by Burkha Dutt and like-minde...

Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness

Image
...and why not? The evolution of human beings took so much time just on the basis of the received wisdom, that they were afraid of accepting CHANGE or acclimatisation. A mind preoccupied with fear from thunderstruck at night, howls of beasts nearby and the fearsome sight of the fire was too hard to be convinced to accept the change , and which is why evolution of human being (as i concur) was prolonged process. This quote is reminiscent of that evolution. Men were confined in their sense of fear, and therefore they were unable to acclimatize to the new surroundings posing as threat to their long-held superstitions. The cavemen never took the trouble of coming out of their hideouts at nights filled with spooky sounds of thunders/wolves/lions or wild animals. And when they mustered up courage, tried to evolve with the things around, they learnt that many things or beliefs they were so blithely held up were counterfactual credo. So, they busted many myths later through the ...
