The Big Picture

If you think I'm boring you or if this blog is too long, you are most welcome to fuck off right away!

God has not given me the ability to talk great, but I sure can pen it down. I'm no philosophical or inspirational or motivational dick, I just provide you a different perspective on life. It’s just that I do a ”self-check” from time to time to see how I'm doing in life and as a result I come up with my own fundamentals. I write because of my love for it and most importantly to show off how great I really am. You see, all the so called "motivational writers" wrote all those books only after they made it big in life. But who is addressing the "making-in" part? Enter Kush Zaveri. That’s where I come in; I’ll do that for you! Believe me, I’m not some NRI loser who cries foul over some other old loser selling his Ferrari. This is no "Secret" shit either; I wonder how high that bitch would have been when she came up that "Universe" bullshit. All that these guys ask us to do is think positive. Before I attained nirvana and became The Greatest Man Alive, I tried doing that, I thought all positive thoughts about every situation, and everytime to my disguise, the exact opposite happened. So that's when I decided, let's cut the crap, screw the gurus and write my own stuff.

So, anyway, coming to the subject; my boss always says “See the Big Picture”. I guess this is the most overused and over exploited statement in the corporate world today. Mostly used by a boss when he has no clue what he is talking about. So what is this big picture, anyway? Ever heard of Circle of Life? Watch the Discovery Channel, they show it all the time. I guess we Humans have forgotten this very fact of our existence. I’ll come to the reference of the Circle of Life part a little later. Let me first define The Big Picture for you; the big picture according to me is being happy in life. Every fucking soul on the face of this earth wants to be happy. We struggle everyday at whatever we do, but for what? To earn a better living, buy a house, buy a new car, to buy that expensive watch from that big ass mall? I’m sure these things make us happy, I’m Human too, but believe me, it’s all temporary. It takes no time for all these to become old, and make us unhappy all over again.

I know you’ll argue with me on this saying that the world wouldn’t have developed if it wasn’t for the urge of Humans to poses fancy things. My anwser to you on this is -I leave it up to you to decide!

The movie ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’ gave us a very true message - maybe happiness is something that we can only pursue and maybe we can actually never have it. But deep down inside, the other part of me, tells me that to be happy, you have to spread happiness. It’s always give and take. It’s Karma – what goes around, comes around. But how do we do that with our ego, insecurities and selfishness coming in the way? It’s not rocket science, a simple thank you or a word of kindness sometimes does the job. Just the other day at office sitting in a conference room, in middle of a meeting, this guy comes in with the tea and I could sense the nervousness on his face. When he was finished, I smiled and said “Thank you” and then the entire expression on his face changed, he smiled back at me. He was just happy that somebody realized of his existence.

So the message here is - we are all connected! It’s a Circle of Life! Trust me, if I had the ability to read other people’s minds, nobody in this whole fucking world would have been sad. I would say to them what they want me to say, I would do what they want me to do, in the permissible limit that is. If God gave me an option to ask him something he wouldn’t deny, I would say – please make me a better man!

Prayer

@God: Hey! How is it going up there big guy? Are you on vacation or something? Or its just that you dont come online at all? Wherever you are, your attention is needed down here. Anyway, Ive left you around 1 Billion offline messages, pls do the needful. Amen!

Multibagger Recommendation

This is what a blogger in me could come up with after spending countless hours of playing Poker on Facebook.

Research by: Zygna Stock Brokers
Call: Buy
Company: WTF Pokery Ltd
CMP: $5
Target Price: $20000000000000
Promoter: The Greatest Man Alive, His Highness Kush Zaveri

We recommend this stock as a Multibagger for the sole reason of the sheer greatness of the promoter of this company.

Here is the transcript of the interview with the Greatest Man Alive and Chairman & Managing Director (CMD) of WTF Pokery Ltd.

Q) Hot Babe from Zygna Stock Brokers: Your Highness, is it true that you brought this company from a mere $300 to $265K conglomerate?
A) The Greatest Man Alive, His Highness Kush Zaveri: Yes, it is absolutely true. A lot of time, energy, late-nights and alcohol have gone into the making of this company.

Q) Hot Babe from Zygna Stock Brokers: Your Highness, pls tell us what is your plan for the company in next coming weeks and quarters.
A) The Greatest Man Alive, His Highness Kush Zaveri: We have revised our WoW revenue guidance to $1M and we expect to achieve a front line growth of 300%. We are also targeting the niche segment of $500/$1000 tables. We are thriving towards becoming a $1 Billion company by quarter ending in June.

Q) Hot Babe from Zygna Stock Brokers: Your Highness, considering the nature of this business, how do you plan to overcome the uncertainties and what are your plans for capturing the $500/$1000 tables market?
A) The Greatest Man Alive, His Highness Kush Zaveri: Basically, we are a $50/$100 table company and we will have our focus in that area for the next few coming quarters. The growth leading us to 1 Billion dollar mark would be inorganic, and we are planning to raise $100M from friends and hope to make a killing in $500/$1000 market. Even if we lose all that money, it is not going to affect the balance sheet of the company.

Poker maniac

I guess I'm on verge of becoming a Poker maniac. Somehow I felt like a winner while pulling the lever to 'flush' this morning! I said I'm on verge becuase I still relate to words like Straight, One Pair, Two Pairs and Three-of-the-kind with something else... ;-)

Screw up

My stars are perfectly aligned right now, I can send Nuts and Bolts run for their money and actually beat them at what they do the best!

Life simplified!

It’s Sunday morning and I’m completely useless, so I decide to throw some life gyan at you. I know it’s all said by someone already, but this is my version. Like how Baz Luhrmann says “…it’s all from my meandering experience”. Don’t mind my language; I guess we are all grownups here. Here it goes:

The day I stared off on my own I knew that if it’s going to be it’s up to me. And I guess I’ve come a long way from there. Believe me, it’s not a fucking fairly tale. You have to fight every day, for anything and everything. You have to fight even with your own self for what you believe in. You have to fight just to keep your dreams alive.

Every day you have to deal with one asshole, or more. I say one asshole at a time, please. The reason God created assholes is that he wants you to excel at people management skills. Trust me on this one. But my advice to you all, don’t become one.

Every morning you wake up with a new dream and hope things would get only get better. You take a look back at your life, and you think “Man! Those were the best days”. Does it mean it is getting only worse? I don’t know the answer. But I know this, this one word ‘Hope’ which keeps everyone going (or atleast it helps getting me sleep at night). At every stage of life you set a goal, you achieve it and you move on to the next. Don’t worry if you can’t achieve it, there is always a reason behind it.

It’s good to know your weaknesses, but don’t take it very seriously, it will kill you when you realize you can’t do anything about it.

Don’t worry about the things you don’t have, even if you had all those, you wouldn’t have realized its worth. Just the way you don’t realize what you have right now. Don’t think too much. Nobody gives a flying fuck about you anyway; they are all busy worrying for themselves. Remember, you are not alone, more or less, in one way or the other; everybody is as screwed up as you are.

But between all this bullshit have we forgotten the true meaning of life? Answer is yes, that’s how life is – deal with it! Your problems, worries and fuckups are going to die with you.

A brand new day!

Rise and shine sleepy heads! A brand new day again! A brand new day of prayers, hopes and dreams. A brand new day of problems, worries and more problems. Of BGP and MPLS, OSPF and VPN, spreadsheets and documentation, and endless number of meetings. Of approvals and disapproval, recommendations and escalation, praise and criticism, proposals and rejection. Of laughs, sarcasm and hypocrisy. Of Idli and dosa, andhara meals and kerala meals. Long bus rides and traffic. Rise in inflation, stock market ups and downs, good budget bad budget, hair fall and calories, Cricket and Hockey, Blogger and Facebook.

The list is long and possibilities unlimited..and moreover its just another day!
But I'll survive....I'm Kush Zaveri and I'm a fighter!

Yes.. Eye of a tiger people!
