Every people in his life,sometimes or the another have done some mistakes. "Making mistakes is not a crime." Many people project making mistakes as a crime. There is difference between crime and mistake. An unintentional doing which yields wrong results than expected is called a Mistake. While people confuse it for a intentional doing and build guilt over it. Crime is against laws & in most cases an intended action. An unintended crime is still a crime, but out of a mistake.
Life does not gives us a eraser, if it would have given one then we would have erased our mistakes done.
"Do not build guilt from your mistakes, build your foundations". Every mistake has a lesson to learn, of how not to do something. It is feedback system of the universe to teach us lessons, make an error correction inside us, and get us closer and closer to the unattainable perfection.
Most of us either ignore/deny the mistake or blame the mistake on somebody/something else. This is the mistake we do with the mistake. The roots of this action of ours are in our childhood. When being right always was what we learnt. This lesson of being right always is totally against real life, and can lead to the three mistakes we do with the mistake. We are always told to answer the questions rightly, do the right things and least allowed to experiment. Hence the efforts to be right always and hence the fear of trying new things and the result is few entrepreneurs in the world.
"A successful entrepreneur is nothing but a cluster of mistakes connected one after the other from the point of start to point of success, with lessons at every node of mistake."
So my dear readers ensure that next time you make a mistake, immediately accept it and grab the lesson it has to teach, and resolute never to repeat it again. Your journey of success will get shortened by thousands of miles with this one attitude.
Never say - "oops! I wish i would not have done that mistake."
Instead Say - "thank god this happened, it taught me the most important lesson. I shall never repeat this again, and shall help all my subordinates anticipate this."
Accept mistakes, learn from them, build great foundations and hence great structures of success above them. I hope this was helpful to all you readers.

Proud to be a Bengali
I think, in India inspite of there are many cultures, the Bengalis are the most sweetest, coolest and the most traditionalists of them all. Since time memorial, the culmination of the varied cultures along with Bengalis and Bengal's very own evergrowing richness has given birth to a unique Bengali culture which can be identified by its colourful & significant contribution to all epochs of all traditional & modern society. Bengal has always held an attraction for the outsiders since the historic times. The land of the fertile soil steeped in culture and tradition drew most of them to Bengal's heart. Bengal's mysticism coupled with its intoxicating charm; Bengal's throbbing heart and its pulsating life has a unique flavour.
"Our pride, our hope, O our language Bengali." The true Bengalis all over the world are very much proud of their language. Culture to the Bengali community is as valuable as air & water to human beings. It is said that, "What Bengalis and Bengal thinks today, the rest of the India thinks tomorrow."
The Bengali people are perhaps the greatest food lovers in the Indian subcontinent. A leisurely meal of many items which requires long hours of labour and ingenuity in the kitchen has long been a major part of Bengali culture. Bengali crusine takes in the five basic tastes of astringent, bitter, salt, sour and above all sweet. Bengalis are infectiously passionate about many things - especially for Fish, Mishti Doi and Rossogolla. It is also said that nothing goes waste in a Bengali kitchen.
Another thing that is recognised with the Bengalis is the greatest social and & religious event of the Bengalis -Durga Puja. It is extimated that nerly half of the clothings of the Bengalis are during these few days. In these few days Bengalis forgot everything about the rest of the world and filled with ceaseless activity - social, cultural and religious. The beating of the Dhaaki and the Kanshor Ghonta, meeting with the old friends gives a immense pleasure to the minds and hearts of the Bengalis.
Bangali means................Kolkata.
Bangali means................Football.
Bangali means................Howrah Bridge
Bangali means................Rabindro Sangeet.
Bangali means....today..... also..........our own Dada, Sourav Ganguly, which makes a Bengali proud.
There are many more things to write and mention about the Bengalis, that makes me proud to be a Bengali.
Can you give any 2 reasons that makes a Bengali so special and so unique .............. Give your comments.

The Government Policies
When the election comes and we vote then we think that whosoever comes to the power should make some helpful and strong policies for the countrymen. The Indian Government, at all levels, announces Welfare Schemes for a cross section of the society from time to time. These Schemes could be either Central, State specific or a Joint collaboration between the Centre and the States. Ther are many policies and schemes have been introduced to the people for their help and easy disposal of their problems and complaints. One of them is the Right to Information Act, 2005 which helps people to query about anything before the Govertment offices, helping them to answer the queries positively by the Public Information Officer in due dates, otherwise a penalty will be posed on the respectice office of official.
Many other helpful policies like this have also been introduced to help people. One very new one is the Unique ID system. But yesterday, a new idea on policy for education was given by the HR minister. The idea was to eradicate the Board exams of 10th and 12th, and a public exam for everyone for the next higher studies. I also think about the 10th Board exam is unnessary, as the marksheet is not being used anywhere except for the Date of Birth. Next as the years are passing, the course is becoming more and more difficult for the students as more and more pressure is created by the parents to bring more marks, resulting in which failing students at a very young age, nowadays, are commiting suicide. Secondly, according to me, apart from the ICSE and CBSE boards, all the state boards should be merged to one board, which contain the same syllabus and hence giving the at par oppurtunities to all the students of the country. Students should also be given the practical knowledge about the subjects and see that what the child is learning about the subjects (besides just completing the syllabus of the course). There should be a board where there is all the subjects should be studied and the students should (from Class 1) be given the option to opt any 4 subjects of their own (excluding the English, Hindi,as it is the National language & the regional language of the state). This will make a child to focus on the subjects which will help them in their long term career goal and ambition in life.
Next, all the corruption occurs in education system is during and in the exam of the education pattern. So it is necessary to impose one Central Education governing body, which takes control and operates the education system throughout the country, which will surely lessen the corruption in the education system.
It is a very long term and also difficult task to make an education system as I have stated. But I still think that this is possible, to make all the children in our country to become literate (by giving free and cumpulsary primary education to all, like the Uniue ID which is compulsary) and also, a strong and one education system should be imposed all over the country. Please feel free to gice a comment on the ideas about the education I have stated.

Learn to say 'NO'. But don't become a 'NO'MAN
In our life there are many times when we face some situation where in we have to accept or give consent in Yes or No. But as I do, most of the people are also try not to say NO to others feeling, as what the other people will mind. Which result saying in YES. It’s extremely important to learn to say 'NO'. Most of us give consent to innumerous things in our day to day life, in professional front or on personal front, though deep down we would want to disagree strongly. Its always better to understand that a straight No is less painful than a dry yes. Most of us are caught being unproductive on professional front or less enthusiastic on the personal front, in many things we do, for, when the consent is surfacial and deep inside there is "NO".Hence in simple words : "Don't say yes, when you want to say "NO"". The statement in quotes is also the name of the famous book by Herbert Fensterheim. Hence this blog may only contain the summary of what wisdom that book has in store. But taking this tip to extremes would prove to be harmful. Nobdoy loves a NOMAN. Hence if you are always having a NO for everything or if thats the first thing flowing out or a dry yes is always something that you have put forth, your admirers may be nil, at the same time, people who would'nt want you around, may be high. Its great to be a YESMAN in a team. But, do not forget when you are under real contraints, where it is impossible for you to agree, follow the thumbrule : "Dont say YES when you want to say NO". Let either, come after a good thought process. Intelligence and presence of mind always take sometime before they give their opinion through your mouth. So give them their share of time, and let them do the job for you. Most people end up in problems and getting locked up with things, which they are not passionate about, or they lose their time at unproductive things, because they could not slip in a NO at the right time. So, dear friends saying "NO" is not a crime, though being a NOMAN is one. So ensure you avoid deadlocks in your life, getting stuck in unproductive things, by just saying NO to them.
Its very difficult for people like me to say NO to anyone straightaway (almost impossible), however difficult the work may be, who wants to help people in whatever possible way we can. But following this article it seems that it is sometimes correct to say NO to anyone, other than not able to do the work in time taking our own responsibility (where the people have a tendency to forget and relax after giving the work to someone else).
So in our life if we want it to be a better one then Don't Say Yes When You Want to Say No, But afterall don't become a NOMAN at all.

Important things in life- Managing our expences
As I have earlier said in one of my previous post that it was during the last 4-5 years that I have known how to face the world and also how to manage a family (which I think I have done to a great extent). This is managing and planning accordingly that all the important purposes in the life never gets halted and the wheels of the family keeps on moving smoothly. This needs the cooperation of the whole family and the members. I have learnt these things from the stories, accounts, diaries and old documents of my grandfather, who besides working in a small private company from the age of 20, managed his expences and savings to build a house of his own, with the cooperation of my grandmother, both sacrificed many things of their life to give his son and the next generation a somewhat good life than them.
One main thing to do to manage a house or family needs is a good management policy for the home budget and to spend accordingly, saving as much you need, keeping in mind the needs of the family and the members in the next 5 to 10 years and plan accordingly.
I have mainly followed this policy and have seen that it works. Also there is a saying that "What good or bad we have done in our past is the result we are reaping today. And what we will do (correct or wrong) today, will affect in our future." So, if we save and manage in the right way today, that will going to help us in the coming years.
Management is not only needed in big offices or companies only, it is needed in the smallest of the houses also, even for whom who just earns Rs. 100/-. Because I have seen many people who nevers plan or manage their money or anything and is much spendthrift, they time of crises, get tensed and worried and finally have to borrow money from their friends and relatives, and sometimes from money lenders who charge them a heave interest for that.
So, my thought is that whatever we are earning today must be spend in the right way (not be spendthreft) , to control our expences, and also save a little amount in our own way whichever we think (from man to man) will be better for us, that could help our family in time of problem or urjency.

My dreams in life
Since my childhood, I have many dreams like all people had in their life. But have not seen any of my so called big dreams fulfilled, however, some of my smaller dreams have been fulfilled, better late than never. For this I thank God for hearing my words and fulfilling my dreams.
In this phase of my life I have 2 of my very big dreams, which I very much need the help of my God for fulfilling those dreams. The two big dreams are (1)To get married to my dream girl and (2) To build a house of my own money, with my & my spouse's ideas (MY DREAM HOUSE IN MY DREAM CITY - KOLKATA).
These are my dreams which I would like to fulfill in my life, and if these get fulfilled then all the dreams that I have seen and that have not get fulfilled will be nullified. I would like my first dream to be fulfilled in my coming few years and the next big one in the next 10 to 20 years of my coming life.
Let's see and wishing that God will help me in completing and fulfilling my these 2 dreams which I have got now in my mind.

The most tensed days of my life
From my early childhood , I have been a guy who becomes very tensed whenever any problems arises, or you can say a problem which had not arrived yet but just thinking of it in advance.
In my life, the most tensed days of my life were the days when I gave my final exams and the time when we awaits the results to be out. Although during my junior school I was a brilliant student, I was not as worried as I was during my next phase of my schooling (Senior school). I kept deteiorating in my studies and was in a very poor condition by the time I was in my 10th, I had done very badly in my prelims. After giving the Board exams I was more restless and daily see what I have done in my paper and counting that whether I will get passing marks or not. ON the result day I was not aware that the reselt has been declared, when my father had gone to office and returned back and said that the result was out and Asking what I have done in my exams. I got much frightened. Then he said that I have passed , then only I become normal. Next was When I gave my 12th, it was the same things I was doing that I have done before, in my 10th results. This time also I was not aware that the results was out. This time one of my best friend called me and said that I have got 75% marks. I cannot believe what he said because I only know what I have done in my exams. I with my father, then, went to school that whether my friend had seen the result of the boy sitting before me as he was a topper of our school. Then after seeing result that I have got pass (not with 75%) but with good markd than I have thought. These were the most testing times of my life.

My most difficult time of my life
There is some time in everyone's life when he would call it the most difficult time of his life.
I too have the most difficult time of my life when I lost my father unexpetedly and untimely. It was in August 2004 when this tragic incident happened with us which had created a large vaccum in our family, especially in my & my sister's life (even felt today by us). That night was the worst night of my life where my father was lying dead and I could not got a moment to sit and cry beside him, because if I cry how could I console my family. So I made myself strong (which I was not from the inside) and consoled my family. We were not at all ready for this, and it was in just in a matter few minutes that our whole world was shattered in a darkness, where many discission were to take and, and for every discission there were many advices (correct and wrong), from which we have to take the right discission, otherwise the future would not be as we expect.
I thank to my (the then) legal advisor who helped us in that time to overcome the then major problem of our family.
But at that time, I was the only male member of my family and so all the responsibilities automatically came upon my shoulders (as before that I was not at all serious about my life and my future and always escape from the responsibilities that were given to me), and so thereon I have to shoulder the responsibilities of my family, and take the right and correct discissions for them. Truely, in the beginning I faced many difficulties in handling the then problems and taking the correct discissions, but as it is a saying that "where there is a way there is a will". I steadied myself and along with my sister studied the problems which came in our family in detail and took the correct discission for it as there was nobody else to help us. But slowly and gradually we paved our way from that difficult time of life but the loss (of my father) is still felt by us very much.
Sorry........ for making you bored, by telling my most worst days of my life........but as I did not tell it to anyone , so I am writing it down.....about as I have gone through that time and faced it..............

What I mean by getting the right knowledge
In every man's life there is a stage when he is supposed to go to school and earn knowledge. According to the Vedas also, in a man's life first 25 years of life is only for studing. Parents also says that to earn knowledge and to got success in life everyone has to go to school. I also have done that for the last 23 years, but if I go through my life and the phase after my school (Specially the last 4 years), I feel that the knowledge which I gained from the outside world is much more than those I got in the school or college. I also feel that the book knowledge is necessary but it is not at all efficient for anyone. The main knowledge one can get is by experiencing and facing the world by its own and taking his dissicions by its own in the time of any problem. Because I think practical knowledge in life is always important than any other knowledge, and the practical knowledge in life is the most important of all. It is also important for get into any debate which we face everyday in some or the other matter (sometimes correct and sometimes unnecessary). We should give any advice to others if we have the experience of our own. We should also have some main key knowledge in all the fields which is concerned with us or not, as it not have to seem to concern with us today but if we have some key knowledge of the subject it would help us later in the life if we face it. Not only having the knowledge in every matter will help but also we have to update ourself with the surroundings and the matter, otherwise inspite of having the knowledge, we will not be updated with the latest facts with the subject ( As today in every field there is a very fast change everywhere)
Today, I thank God and Ebiz for this practical knowledge which had made me a complete man to face the world, and also helped me in succeed in life and to take the right discisions not only for me but for many others too...... Sometimes, when I sit alone I think that what would be my life be if I had not got the opportunity(via EBIZ) to interact with the 1000's of type of people and their mindset over any issue and life.
I have tried a little to give my feelings on having the practical knowledge in life..........which I think will help everybody if they understand it clearly and correctly.

The things which make me regret
In our life there are many things which we do, knowingly or unknowingly, for which we regret later in the life. But sometimes we regret on those things for which we have not done in our life. I feel there is only one life to live and the days which have gone by will never come back to us in this life, so we should enjoy each & every moent of the life to the fullest. In our every phase of life there are many things to do, and which should be done in that phase of life only. In my life also there are many such things happened which I haven't done during that phase of my life which have passed away. One of the thing is that I haven't done is I am a very shy person and have not approached or talked to any girl of my own, and so never have a girlfriend in my life for which I regret the most. Many of my friends who have one or more than one girlfriends always make fun of me by talking of their girlfriends and their relationships. I sometimes feel very frustated by their words, but hold my emotions by just diverting of the topic.
Sometimes I think that doing these type of affairs are a very challenging and interesting thing but sometimes it feel like very boring or time consuming, which affect our career(or it is just a way in which I could console myself).
But seriously when I think that why I don't have a girlfriend, then I have the answer that I have nothing that a girl wants in his boyfriend, i.e. good looks, personality, and above all, money to impress someone.
Although I regret it very much, but now, in my present phase of my life I barely have time to impress any girl to be my girlfriend, as I am now serious with my studies and career, and later on think of any girl after achieving any goals, as I now don't want to regret for anything else in my life.

Young Vs Old Generation
From the time since the world have came into the existence, it has been seen that there has been always have been a generation gap between the generations........ It has been said that the older generation is always muchamore experience than his younger counterpart. But I think that the younger generation is much more generation is much more smarter and up to date with the latest technologies and is always trying to innovate new ideas and innovations in their workfield and home. I have met many people during the last year and have found out that many people do not know about the latest................forget about the latest...............don't even know about the basic knowledge about the computers and the new technologies.
Now a days, I feel that the daily works which our fathers and grandfathers use to do has been much more easies and time consuming............But still I see that many of the people are still unaware of the latest technologies which the Govt. has provided for the general public, which has been ignored or the people feel it as a threat that whether their work will be done or not(which is a big mind blockage), infact ot makes the people satisfied by going and have it done in front of their eyes. Many of my relatives are also among this category, I have tried to explained them about the use the better technologies (like the E mail, and other online services) but have failed miserabely. But according to me, it is fast and reliable.
Sometimes I think that what will they do after about 10-15 years when there waill be paperless work done everywhere, and how will the people cope with the changes around them.....A matter worth thinking.
Now a days, I feel that the daily works which our fathers and grandfathers use to do has been much more easies and time consuming............But still I see that many of the people are still unaware of the latest technologies which the Govt. has provided for the general public, which has been ignored or the people feel it as a threat that whether their work will be done or not(which is a big mind blockage), infact ot makes the people satisfied by going and have it done in front of their eyes. Many of my relatives are also among this category, I have tried to explained them about the use the better technologies (like the E mail, and other online services) but have failed miserabely. But according to me, it is fast and reliable.

Mistakes of my life
I sometimes think that in my life I have done some mistakes ,out of which some were blunders, of which I think that if I was able to take the correct dicission in the correct time, then my life would have been much more different. According to Gita "Jo hua achcha hua, jo ho raha hai...................................... achcha hoga".
Today, I would like to tell about my first girl whom I liked. I met her first when I was doing EBiz. She was one of my associate's guest. It was on 3rd August 2006,at evening around 4:30, I met her for the first time.On request of my associate (also a girl), I along with her, went to her friend's home to pick her up for the meeting. I did not notice her while going to the meeting. But after meeting ,I along with my sister went to her home to take the followup of the meeting. There I saw her clearly for the first time. I was also surprised to know that she was also
Bengali, and her condition was almost like us . We talked to her family and convinced them to join EBiz. Then we met regularly but never talked. Whenever talked, just like an upline(boss).
Then in Sept'06 we were to go to Amritsar. And there was also a order from our uplines to take all the associates with us. Now while on the trip to Amritsar, I don't know what happened, but I started to develop a feeling towards her. Although she was not my dreamgirl for whom I have thought since my early days, but still I started liking her. But I did not tell my feelings to anyone (except my sister, who was now a much good friend of her's). But I made my entire efforts to be her very good friend. But unfortunately I think that I failed in doing so. Then due to my studies I lost contacts with her for about a year and a half or so. But suddenly last Sunday she met us in Bharat Seva Ashram on Saraswati Puja and told that she was going to get married in a few days. But the big surprise was yet to come, ofter 3 days she called my sister and told that, "tomorrow is my marriage and please do come with your brother".
Now what shall I say, we went to her wedding and gave her the wish of having a good and prosporous marriage life......
And again started for my next search...............which I dont know will end.

Missing the second home (my school)
Today, after many days, as I was coming in front of my old school I saw the banner of celebration of "Post Centenary Silver Jublee" Was hanging above the college gate, and I took a trek to the memory lane some 21 years back in time to 1988, when I first stepped into the premises of SJC (my college), for my first interview (admission test) in life. Luckily, among many children, I was lucky enough to have got the admission. St. Joseph's College, founded in 1884, is an English medium college for boys.The motto of the College was(it still is) 'SEMPER SURSUM', which means "Always Aim high." It was not a co-ed school but anyways, I was too young to know the difference of sexes. There, I never thought or dreamed about that in the next 13 years it would be my second home, as there I would find many new friends, who will be with me throughout my life.
Rainy season had its own magic creating patches of water filled with tadpoles. We kids would sit by its sides and watch the mounted frog(mating) we never understood what was happening all I could think was probably the frogs were having a fight... but then how could the fight be so peaceful with one frog mounted over the other and sitting there peacefully for hours :).
Throughout the senior section, had probably 99.9 % of attendence, mainly because I always want to go to the school to play football in the free periods & lunch break to play Football,. I was the main striker in my team.
Then there were the Eagles which had their body clock tuned so well that they would reach the Playground exactly on the Lunch break. They would hover over the ground and look for the most careless kid. They would just swoop down to pick the food from open Tiffin boxes.It was the most scary of all the things. I remember having to spend one whole day without food having to forgot it for one Lucky eagle. A few naughty kids would offer the lunch to the eagle by holding the bread in their hands and waving them. I knew their mother didn’t cook well :). But that wasn’t the case with me, mine was the tastiest Tiffin ... n I wouldn’t share it with anyone in the world. As most of the times I used to have my tiffin before the lunch break, in the class, avoiding the eyes of my teacher & my partner & other friends(mainly in Senier Section),from saving my tiffin from my friends and other boys.
During our school days the most 2 occasions everyone, either teacher or the students, would eagerly wait were the Annual Sports & the Fete. During fete we have to purchase coupons(compulsary) of Rs. 10. Many boys put up their own stall of food or games along with their teachers. I along with one of my friend had put up a gamestall (Dropping a coin out of the glass full of the sand by strikig the pencil on which the coin was placed) and earned many coupons, which after dividing equally,we used to sell the extra coupons earned to other small boys.
Before and During the Annual Sports, all the boys of our respective houses tried very hard to get the highest points in marching,but after giving our best when the points were were declared, our Gold house always comes the last,which was a surprise throughout my college life. But, the Discipline Shield was always won by our house, mainly because after getting the lowest points in the points table all the boys gets disappointed and sat sadly discussing about the faults about the faults and getting scolding from the house captains, prefects and house masters. While all the other houses started celebrating their victories in one or the other events.
Another thing which gets us eagerly awaited for the occation were the extraordinary fire works (not less than the Olympics) started when I was in class 7 which caught the eyes of the parents and the students was stated as one of the spectacular event of the city, in the following day's newspapers among the city.
Among these great things there were something many boys along with me and my friends don't like and was very much embarrasing about the Sports was doing the marching in just only in the sleeveless vest in the cold winter of mid December, and that too also in front of many parents and especially girls who came to see the sports.
I would have most scared during the whole year throughout the whole school life was the time of declaration of my final results.(Although I was a above average student) I always had the fear that I will be the only person who will fail in the class & my all friends will get the promotion & how will I face them. But when the result was handed over to me, I was always among the top 10 position in the class (in the Junior section) and luckily passed every time with satisfactory marks to me (in the Senior section).
Now, when I sometimes go down the memory lane, I found something missing in my life, and that were the golden school days with our friends and the carefree life, when we do not have much responsibilities and to think about our future seriously. At that time we just have many great imagination about our life and just want to leave the school and grow up early and just get rid of the studies,just like our parents who don't have to study the thick books like us.
But there is a good saying that " The grass is always greener on the other side". At time we used to think something but not understand. But now ,the thought is just the opposite. Now we can understand that our parents might not have to study, but tey have many responsibilities, which is much more difficult than that of studing thick books.

Remembering my birth place
For every human being the place where he/she has born is always one of the most important place in his/ her life. He never forget the place throughout his life as it is the place where he has first the daylight, the nature and the warmth of love and affection of the family and relatives. It is often seen that due to some events or circumstances, most of us have to leave our birth place and live in some other place,either due to our parent's job, our education, our own job or some other problem. But, it always remains in our memory and whenever we get a chance, we try to visit there.
The same thing hapens for the place where we spend our childhood days, where we spend our school, with our friends from whom we learned the meaning of friendship. I think is is very sad for the people who have to leave their birth place and the place where they spend their childhood.
I also feel very sad for not visiting my birthland for the last 10 years. many times I've tried but failed due to some problems. But this time I have made up my mind that whenever I will go to W.B. I will visit my birth place to see the changes there in the last 10 years.
In the childhood, I remember that during my school days (till class 9) each yearas soon as our summer vacation started, we(I and my sister) would go to our birth place (my maternal grandparents home) for spending our summer vacation for long 2 monthes. But now as we had grown up, the time had changed , the responsibilities has grown more, it has made very difficult for me to go there each year.
Now I understand the meaning why my father used to tell us in our childhood that "Enjoy this phase of life as it is the most beautiful part of the life which you will remember in your future".
