hey been a long tym since i wrote something...infact i had actually forgotten bout my blog completely... n when i read some very sweet ( n not so sweet comments) bout my earlier posts... i thought why not give it another shot. I bet you've heard that the worlds a small place, but i still did not expect to get a job in a company which my school friend's are already working for. I had just heard bout their placements a few months back ( infact last year) and wished that i too get something that good when my turn comes (im doing engg so i graduate a year later than my DU friends). And thats what god had planned for me. im still not sure if ill join the company but its great to know that god still listens to earnest prayers. ill advice everyone to pray for whatever they desire in life, you never know what comes true.
what i genuinely do not understand is the level when a person should get satisfied with... what is this level...
whoever reads this blog please mention the level where you'd rather say that "this is it, this is what i wanted to do n now id rather chill or retire"; cause seriously even though im ur last competion i really dont know when to stop n take a backseat to enjoy my life. or is it the struggle which is worth enjoyin like many people say: "its not the destination but the journey that counts". please do enlighten me n in the process think whats ur destination or goal which will make all other things seem petty.
next i would like to know (sorry for asking too many questions) , when do you know its love? lol.. kidding, i know that "you just know it...." . well i have nothing to share with you guys( if there is anyone whose ineterested) right now, ill surely get back whenever i get some weird thoughts bout life n its journey. i guess i too have to slog for my cat preps from now on... see ive tried my level best to avoid it... dat is the reason im so late...
neways take care....

Hey Ankita, Was juz checkin out your blog and found some simple yet compelling questions. The old one about when to be satisfied with wat you have. The answer is, there is no answer. The richer you get, the more things you aspire for and the poorer you feel. It's always natural to feel that you are juz so close to having all you want, but always far away.
Studies show that after a certain level of income, I would say 30k in india nowadayz, more money does not equal more happiness. So, always enjoy your life, it's more than just work, infact, always sturggling just to get ahead is a shure-shot way to be always unhappy.
The top 5 factors, as identified by psychologists are
1. Love & relationships - people in love are rarely unhappy.
2. Health - Get some exercise and fresh air everyday a nd eat a lot of fruits and see for yourself.
3. Job satisfaction - Nothing to do with how far you get in the rat race, do you really like your job
4. Money - It only matters if you dont have any :)
5. Kids - maybe later
Oh and BY THE WAY I think you totally got the wrong idea about Deloitte. It's a huge firm offering a very wide range of services. IITians also join Deloitte, straight from college in my service line. You could compare yourself to them too :). Anyways, your DU friends must have joined Audit or some backoffice operations. Which are totally different from what you will be doing. Consulting is any day a whole lot more exciting than Audit...I think I can go on but this is getting too large, maybe i'll tell you more bout my theories later :)
