I wanna catch my own fish, cook it n eat it

I think I was pretty late to realize that it was time to take career seriously, it was then, when I was let out from the safe n protected home environment where you never get to face the hardship and the very reality of rat race.

From the time I started thinking about making a living of my own, I remember that I always wanted n talked about entrepreneurship. Along with a friend of mine I dreamed about writing software applications and making it big time.

But very soon I was running in the 100 Mt sprint rat race n I could never even realize that I was sprinting which is taking me far away from our dream, n I successfully completed my sprint.

Now the dreams were different, priorities were different and I wanted to win the race and take on more races, different races but little I knew that all were rat races.

But this thought of entrepreneurship always haunted me, during the hard and lonely time, in the time when you are dissatisfied with n about every thing what ever you are doing, when you sit and think about your achievements, when you think about your past, when you drive pass a nice architectural software building, when you see the compassion of sales guy making a pith to sell his product, when some one asks what is your resolution this year and when I see my uncle (businessman) leaving his office late in the night and before driving away he stops, turns back and takes an eye full of look at whole of the building, ahhh what a feeling........

A lot of time has been spent thinking n thinking n thinking about what fish should I catch, where should I catch and when should I catch. Read quite a lot of books on people who made it big, thought about MBA some times, tried to tie up with a few guys who are into this and tried some things which turned out to be stupid.

I try to talk to people young, old, entrepreneurs, fellow colleagues, college students and share my thoughts and try to find if some one is interested. Most of the people I talk to, follow my words and show interest but only for the sake of enrolling in the conversation at the moment.

Time is running out, but I am still at the same place which makes me sad, but I keep wondering when will I find my fish and what will it take to catch my fish n why can't I find n catch my fish?

Sakaleshpur trip

This is one of the very famous trekking spot around Bangalore. Lot of people come here for trekking. Though there is not much of trekking :P as the whole story is about walking on the railway tracks and crossing long tunnels and bridges which seems to be exiting and adventurous only in the beginning. The track is surrounded by the thick forest.
I personally did not like the trek as walking on the track is difficult (probably only in the beginning) and you can't enjoy the valleys, possible sitings of any animals (if you are very lucky), local flora and the nature as a whole, because you have to keep starring at the track (there are no side paths etc etc...) to walk if you don't want injure yourself :P.
Walking on the track sleepers is also painful as the whole foot will not get accommodated on the sleepers and the toe will suffer a lot, walking on the rock (Track ballast technically) is also not a very good idea. So better wear good shoes with good tough and thick soul.


Don't forget:

1. Torch : Very important to carry to cross the tunnel. Tunnels are long and inside, it is jet black dark.
2. Salt: Yes there are leeches on the track :)
