Organisational Behaviour (OB) ki Diwani!

I would like to start and also end this post with songs!

Ishq junoon jab hadh se badh jaaye (when the intensity of love for something crosses boundaries)
Haste haste aashiq suli chadh jaaye( the lover smiles and heads for the gallows)
Ishq ka jaadu sara chadha kara bole (the magic of Love gets into head and says)
Khoob laga lo pehre raste rab khole( take many rounds around, and then god opens ways)
Yahi ishq di marzi hain( this is love’s will and wish)
Yahi rab di marzi hain( this is god’s will and wish)

He he petty much sums up my love for OB!....now comes the other side of it.

IITM First Quarter First Grades given out!.... and yeah I get a “B” there. To my non MBA friends, a “B” grade comes after “S” and “A” (in the same order)….. Now I know OB is one subject I have put my heart and soul into when I studied it. I felt Bad. I felt Miserable. However I started thinking. Why did this happen. I could come up so many faltoo reasons on my part like my first two quizzes which were miserable due to my misunderstanding of the course and which actually helped me get the right orientation and interest in the subject later on. I can push it off on my group tasks and say someone else ruined it for me[:P] which wont change anything for me :D…..

But on a deeper note, I always believed in two things…..

1. When something good or bad has to happen, nothing can stop it from happening independent of whether you want it or not.

2. God doesn’t give everything to everyone. When he gives something somewhere to u, he is bound to cut something else somewhere. There is always a balance between your Have(s) and Have not(s). This is what they teach you in Financial Accouting too [:P]

Now when I started thinking why did I just lose out on my grade by one point( I lost an A by one mark, yeah yeah it’s the same one mark funda that you all guys must have seen in your lives too :D)

I still remember me getting the school first by just one mark in 10th and winning some cash prize for it. The guy who scored just one mark below me is my close friend and he felt miserable!! Well, I didn’t complain then [:P]…..

I got thru the Summers process quite easily (which I believe is partly my preparation but mostly just got lucky since they asked stuff that I exactly knew)…. Well, I never complained then!

All nice things happening in my life right now and I am actually loving every moment in this college and just living my life. And no, I didn’t complain!

When God has given me so many nice things at one go, he is bound to cut some wires!...Well OB is the first wire[:P]…. Did he actually do this to hurt me!....Naaah!.... he is showing about how he has given me so many gud things and its time for him to do some cost cutting[:P]….

However the good part is, not just to me but to all those who just got there to the border and could not make it, Look Out!.... The other grades might just take you to places where u never thought you could be (I meant the positive way duds!!)….

You might say this girl is too optimistic and I don’t care. I am frustrated and angry is what you might say. Just sit and think. Did something really gud or nice happen to you in the recent past that you know is something that others didn’t get!....if you don’t have something like that yet, don’t complain re![:D]……Picture Abhi Baaki Hai Mere Dost!....In short, the future isint here yet!....Just wait and watch…. You wil gain an edge over people at instants in your life which will be ever cherished. Exams and grades like this wil be brooded over but will be forgotten….

Your mind is like an array with fixed memory. Once a fresh good memory comes in, a bad memory has to move out to accommodate the gud one. Which one you choose to move out depends on the priority you attach to it. And finally a day wil be come when you have too many gud memories that the bad memories don’t have much place to occupy!....this is true and you will see it happen to you sometime [:D]…at least it happened with me….and then when you actually don’t see it, God has his ways of showing it to you thru disasters like OB Grades[:D]….now you
know you have so many gud memories that you don’t think of quite often but once a bad memory pops in, you see it all[:P]….

Anyway no more bhaashan on this, all I can say is. Grades do Matter but not as much as YOU matter!.... I love myself and hope the same with you too!.... never give up is the key[:D](yeah an old dialogue but yaha pe koi aur line ja nahi raha tha :))…..

Would like to conclude this weird post of mine which has actually made me feel so nice about myself now with another song from telugu….its been translated for the benefit of my non-telugu friends[:D]

Right o Left o Right o Left o
Mundukko( Forward) Venakkako( Backward)
Paipaikko( Up and up) Kindakko( Down)
Asalu endukko( Why is it so?) Ekkadiko( Where is it to?)
Just Go… Go… Go… Go… Go…

Last but not the least, Nike says “Just Do It” and I say “I Just Did It”….thru this post….. I did a great deal of good to myself and hopefully to some other who are still patiently reading this piece of crap with great concentration!...

There might be people who are still taking their time to come out of the disaster….its fine to brood actually….but rem tht something gud is on its way already!

Cheers!
