Ask GOOGLE uncle

It was almost more than three years back when I joined freshly as a software engineer at Oracle, I was exposed to the industry tools of which I had no idea of. I was put into the unlimited ocean of DBMS to play with the tools available. Whatever I tried on the tool, it shot up an error which prohibited me from proceeding further. I had to get out of my seat every 5 minutes to ask my senior what to do next. That's when he told me that there was an uncle whom I should ask all my queries to and that uncle was GOOGLE.

 

Google is a company founded by Sergey Brin and Larry Page. It provides us the best search engine on internet. People have got so used to Google that it has become analogous to internet today. The moment someone is asked to search through internet, s/he goes to Google. It's highly difficult to even imagine a world without Google today, which has been helping us find any kind of information at our fingertips. In spite so much of popularity of Google, still some are suffering not knowing as to how to use Google properly to resolve their queries. Google itself provides a lot of educational tutorials to learn on how to use Google better. Some of the best industry experts have written innumerable blogs on how to use Google to get exactly what you're searching for. I am not intending to share any such techniques about Google search because there is already lot of information floating online which you can make use of.

 

I wrote this blog post only to pass on the message that one can learn how to use Google in an efficient way using Google itself. In fact, I also wanted to express my gratitude towards Google for the amazing support that it has been in a lot of my work. Google has reduced the information gap between the source and the destination. The reason Google thrives is not because it's a company which has the best

search engine but because it's a vision which is benefiting mankind to a large extent. Thanks a lot Google!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone always raises the bar

Man used to use stone-made articles for his day-to-day necessities in the stone age. Someone found out a metal and then evolved the metallic age of using metals for all work. Similarly wheel was one such invention which completely raised the level of transportation used. Even though this evolution happened, why did it take ages to happen is a big question of concern. The existing people were complacent enough with the ongoing and spent years and generations through the same routine but someone came in with a new thought to raise the bar of living and hence there was a transition in the age itself.

In our daily life we can see so many such scenarios where certain standards are already set and people work and perform under the same standards. But there is always one new person who enters the existing scenario to push up the standards. He/she raises the bar of expectations. Automatically everyone else is forced to perform to these standards because it was just one more human being completely similar to them who made the elevation of change. No one lies to be at the sub-standards like in earlier times. Everyone wants to move up but the question is who takes the iniative and moves up to set an example for others. Students were meant to only study during school and college days but few men like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Larry Ellison, Mark Zuckerberg, Sergey Brin, Larry Page started off companies during their study time itself. Some dropped out of graduation, some continued but raised the bar of possibility of what a student can do at a young age. This is a very simple example but I am damn sure you would have noticed many such examples similar to this in your surroundings.

People often get complacent in the norm of things already set, there is always a necessity of some extraordinary person to enter the scene to break the mindset and raise the bar of thinking. The point is whether you want to be in the complacent lot or be the person who raises the bar everytime to set new standards for others to follow. Observe your own life and introspect if you are raising your level in your own eye everyday. If you don't see yourself growing on a daily basis, probably you are moving into the ordinary lot that just follows the extraordinary.

I try my best to elevate the thinking level of self and others, you can share your feedback on is.mohanbn@gmail.com

Just a call away

Civilizations have evolved from time immemorial on this planet earth and the life is still evolving.  The only reason that human life has continued so far right from the old stone age is because no human could survive all alone on this earth. One had to co-exist with the other for the living and continuing the race. Probably communities and big joint families symbolise this point of interdependence of humans on one another for a lively life. The reason today we are facing the highest cases of depression and suicides are because of the division of people and their vain efforts to survive all alone. Loneliness is eating away many lives in this busy world where people don't have time for others but only for work.

How nice is it to find that anyone you need is just a call away. Thanks to the technology that has made the earth shrink into a small village. A message over a phone or a mail over internet or a call over a cell or just a shout can bring the people we need near us. There are so many countries wherein the situation is so pathetic that one single family cannot live together and there is no one to be seen even if called a million times. Be grateful to the freedom that you're enjoying. The best part of a friend who can come to us just by a call is the sense of security that gets satisfied. The fear of being alone gets killed. Moving a step further, how would it be if the person who can come to you and join for a lunch or a dinner or a movie can also join hands with you to work for a common dream and a common vision? A simple yet stupendous example of this is Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Both these guys got together for a project and just made a fortune out of it together. There are several such examples. My blog here saying 'Just a call way' is to convey the point of how good your call is that nobody can deny. There are so many personal things that we would never share with anyone but only with one person on whom we have bestowed the highest amount of trust. But its also important that this person is present and reachable at the time of necessity and that's why I name this blog as 'Just a call away'. You can be sure to be the luckiest person on this earth if you can find the one whom you trust the most and who will join hands with you for your dreams, is just a call away.

Having talked from one direction now I would like to conclude this blog by switching to the other direction. Are you that someone for anyone who has the highest trust in you? Can you be that 'just a call away-friend' for anyone if he/she has faith in you that you will help them realise their dreams? If you can be the answer to these questions for masses then definitely you are the asset of this universe. May you have a wonderful life ahead!!!!!!!!
