Today is my fifth wedding anniversary. Its hard to believe that five years has passed since our marriage. Time runs fast 🙂
As I write this post, I am stuck with Writers block. I wanted to write something, but don’t know what to write. I thought writing a blog post a day is easy, but when it comes to reality, its hard. I am not going to let this stop me from writing. To overcome this writers block, I have to write more. Yes, the more I write, the more ideas I am going to get.
Sometimes questions like this pop-up on my mind. When the questions like this come up: I either think about it for a while and forget it or never think of it. This question is on my mind for past couple of days and so, I thought I will write on it.
Honestly, I dont have any role models (which I know is very bad). But however, I get inspirtation from many and here are a few
Bill Gates
Steve Jobs
Paul Graham
Joel Spolsky
Jeff Atwood
Martin Fowler
Craig Larman
Robert C. Martin
Scott W Ambler
Ravi Mohan
Rajesh Babu
Charles Petzold
Jean-Paul S. Boodhoo
Narayana Murthy
Dr. Ashok Jhunjhunwala
etc.,
All the above are clear winners / achievers in their fields. When I get to read about them through blogs, magazines etc; I would be inspiried, but this inspiration is short lived. For the inspiration to be long lived, I think I should have a role model; who is a guru/expert in the field I am into and look at his/her achivements and try to achive them. The biggest problem here is to choose the right role model. I will update once I have one.
So, who is your role model?
Setting goals on an occasions like birthdays, new year etc., is very easy. I have done this many times. Aspiring goals, which by end of a time frame should take me to new heights. But following an action plan to achieve those goals is bit difficult and this is where many people fail. The same is true in my case as well. I have many goals – read more books, write more software, find job in good company, write more etc. But, I have failed in following my action plans. The result, time waits for none and I find myself in the same state where I was while setting those goals. During this time of the year, I feel bit low and bad on not following my action plans.
And at the end of the day, worrying about not doing things is not going to take me to places where I want to be. I have to follow my action plans. At least, by the end of the year I should achieve some of my goals I set in the beginning of the year. I will have something more to update by the end of the year…..
Off late there are a few Walk in interviews going on in the city. For the past two days, I was thinking how effective it would be. This post is about comparing the Normal interview process and the walk-interview process and talk about their effectiveness
Normal Interview process

Walkin Interview process

There is another kind of interview – Job fairs. They are good to get the entry level graduates but not the experienced.
Does anyone have experience to share on the interview process.
