I just can't wait to Shine!


“I just can’t wait to shine!”

              This is a line from my upcoming short film. It brings out the feeling of a person who desperately want to taste success. It’s not the fame or money that attracts these guys, it’s the self-fulfilling feeling of having done something that others can’t replicate. The burning desire to succeed is all it takes to be successful in life.
              People who are talented and especially the ones who are confident of their talent surely will be restless of waiting to succeed. They want success so badly that they push their limits. They explore new avenues to showcase their skills. They don’t feel let down by failures instead they feel happy to have failed earlier. Because failure teaches you lessons that are tested throughout your path to success.
              I really feel that there are three kinds of guys in this world. The first is the kind that you find commonly around you – they go with the flow. They don’t actually strain themselves in identifying new paths, they just take whatever is comfortable at the situation. They are not really the lazy ones but they are not active either. They just flock around mocking at some exceptional men who try to do things differently. If only these guys could think a little, our country would have never been the way it is now. It would be far, far better.
             The second kind is the one you should never meet. These guys just drain your enthusiasm or whatever passion you have and pull you in to their world of narrow minded thinking. They are the ones who believe that the world is wreck. That’s of course right, but instead of doing something about it they just live their full life cursing the world around them. If you ever get to tell them a positive idea they always have a full ready-made reason set to persuade you against it. May be enjoy cursing!
             The third kind is who I call Rockers. They rock the world. They have a focused mind and they just want to change the world the way they want it to be. They have a dream and a burning desire to achieve it. They may be around you and you don’t have to help them. It would be great deal of a help from any one if you just don’t mock them when they say, “I just can’t wait to shine!”
             If you just want to continue being dull, it’s not going to be a problem to any one and you surely are assured of your freedom to be so but don’t ever try to extinguish someone when he’s trying to illuminate himself up.
             If you really feel that you are one of the third kind that I mentioned, then join the club. I am one of you and this is our blog!!! Let’s rock.

With dreams,
Priyadarshan

In search of an addictive narrative

I like telling stories. I like writing stories. And I like showing stories. I believe that the key element which should be present invariably in all these forms is what I call ‘the connect’. When I tell you a story, I should be able to make you feel the story. I wish to think I am capable of it even though I don’t know for sure. While orally telling a story, the impact of the story depends on the voice modulation ability of the narrator and also his ability to conceal his excitation towards the coming events of the story. He should be able to give peeks in to the future but not telegraph the twists. This will enable the audience to be interested in the story till the end. There must always be a hook which holds their attention. Same goes when writing down a story. Here the voice modulation factor is replaced by the range of words the author uses to communicate the idea. It must connect with the reader and should not make him feel as though something is odd with the narration. But vis

Fear of responsibility...

Many have this simple doubt – why is a manager paid more than the people under him while all the work is done only by the sub ordinates and the manager simply oversees them? Is it not unfair to underpay a working person and overpay someone who supervises? NO, it is not. The weight of managing people is very high. Only a few shoulders have developed the strength to carry responsibility with ease. Others just have to join the lot which wonders why the hell these managers are given perks. Responsibility is such an important thing. Some people just hate responsibility, some others pass responsibilities by pushing it someone who could well be a scapegoat, and only a few cherish responsibilities as if they were born for it. Feeling responsible for your success is the greatest feeling you can ever get. There are many situations when we succeed at something but we don’t feel it at all. We just sleep like it was any other day. This happens because your heart knows that you are not responsible
