I have changed!!

10 years back,had i known how much my behaviour will change and the way i interact today, i would have smiled on myself and would have taken it lighlty as a joke.

But yes as they say 'Time / Life teaches ones a lot' , seems the same is true to a fairly large extent on me.

I used to be a serious, no-nonsense character,slightly short tempered, less adventerous, introvert and laconic character.

But today when i look at myself ,i just can't beleive its me. One major change is my becoming a very outward going and easy gelling person. I can mingle with anyone. I have become humorous and iam no more laconic(to the extent of being termed 'talkative'.

I have started experimenting with different styles of clothes and now even take a risk with my face:)--> recently started keeping long hairs...

The same is the way i interact for the first time with a stranger.Iam far more friendly and interactive.I used to be very shy while talking to girls before, now iam not.Now this is purely due to some unknown reasons<>.

Iam trying to identify the reasons for this change. One major one which i think is my experiance in sales. Yes, and i am quite sure its this. The various kinds of characters i interacted with motley responses has made me not only resilient in nature but also proactive. It also cultivated in me the habit of strucking the chord with strangers and hence coame the humrous trait.

Having shared all the above the following has still remained intact:

  • I speak fast, trying hard to slow down
  • My handwriting is still pathetic
  • I am still a lazy person.
  • And finally am still young by heart :)

How Perceptions Change!!

To begin with,it feels great to be back in the blogging arena after a tiny hiatus.

Recent months have made me realised how perceptions can change against a person or even for that matter against a particular 'thing', 'enitity'.

Sauarav Ganguly: To me used to be a spoilt rich brat having a god gifted stroke play on the 'Off' side but no committment and a very good example of taking things for granted. Even though i considered him to be a good leader,but my primary impression of him was of an arrogant character. His carelessness led to the the slump of his form and eventually his ouster from the team. On top of it the various controversies surrounding him ..'the long stint on the crease clause in his commerical contracts' issue being a major one. But look at the way he has turned the table.The way he has regained his cricketing form and his spot in the both the versions of the game is commendable. He is no more afraid of the short ball. The kind of grit ganguly has shown is amazing. He certainly needs to be appreciated for this. I havn't noticed even a slight pinch of depression in him in field due to the fact that he is no more the skipper. Kudos to him for showing this spirit. His stature to me has risen to a large extent.On a very rare instance, iam happy to see my perception against someone getting changed.

Infact i have started looking at ganguly when things go adverse for me.
