End of the Sabbatical Era!

Dear Friends,

On September 01st I proceeded on a sabbatical to pursue my MBA and let me tell you it has been a wonderful vacation, but now I need to wake up from my slumber and awaken the giant within up to get up from my slumber into action, because that is what it is going to take for me to bell the CAT, there are so many areas that need to be covered and everyday, and yet I am not yet on the required bus.

To the IIM's of the world, I guess here I come, let me just tell you some tales of my travails in the past few weeks, and I am sure you would have gone through the same during your journey, First error, I joined classes and boy did I feel great, back to the classroom, and back to the books, what I did realize and rather too late is that I need loads of practice to gain the required aptitude and speed to make it anywhere, there are some whizkids in the classes I go to and yet I realize in comparison to them although I am not that old I feel like a grandfather, in comparison to their calculations, after missing the initial introduction lecture, I though well I couldnt have missed much, but infact its just like reading a book, if you miss the beginning you don't know what the end has in store for you, and yes such is life, if you choose to miss the beginning by being completely aloof, you will never know how it is to truly love the end.

So first moral of my sabbatical was to practice, and not preach as most of us HR professionals tend to do.

Well I guess I am going to practice what I just preached and hit the books. Good night for now, this is captain's log on 09th October, Live Strong and Prosper!
