Who Can Innovate

It's a talent that everyone has, yet they think they don't. The power of innovation. If you've ever marvelled at somebody's creative prowess, guess what, you can create and innovate too. It just takes time. Everyone is born creative. The box of crayons in kindergarten were not limited to those who possessed potential; because the truth is, everybody has potential.

Please dont think that you are not intelligent enough,to innovate and create new things,as the word says ,it needs creativity(EVEN INTELLIGENCE IS NOT THE ONE WHICH IS INBORN,I WILL TELL YOU ABOUT IT IN MY NEXT ARTICLE), Think of those days when you scribbled on the newly painted walls,when painted something new and showed it your loving ones expecting some appreciation,when you first did your paper boat for yourself and watched it travel on rain water like titanic,and it goes on.......

There will be many instances in life when you have innovated ,think of those simple things you have did for yourself,please dont think what this simple thing i make is going to change the world ,remember
"SIMPLE THINGS CHANGE THE WORLD"

Are you a mediocre student or are you a very poor student ,no worries you are the ones who will change the world,believe me ,note my words
"YOU WILL CHANGE THE WORLD"
"YOU CAN CHANGE THE WORLD"
"BELIEVE IN YOURSELF"

Always keep thinking that you are born for some reason ,you born for to achieve something,you are something special,your thoughts have power,you will become what you think of becoming
"THOUGHTS BECOME WORDS
WORDS BECOME ACTIONS
ACTIONS BECOME ATTITUDE
ATTITUDE BECOMES CHARACTER
CHARACTER DENOTES YOU
YOU HAVE NOW BECOME WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF"

You know how long it took to learn to ride a bike or drive or to never commit the same mistake again? It's the same with innovation. It takes a bit of practice and a lot of time before this mind function comes easily when called. This article will teach you a few tips on how to bring innovation into your life.

Don't listen to what other people say. Follow the beat of your own drum. Allowing for the input of other people will only bring cacophony to the music you are trying to make. If you have an original idea, don't waste your time and effort trying to make people understand. They won't. And the help you will probably get comes in the form of negative feedback. If all those geniuses listened to their peers, we would probably still be living in the middle ages.

Spend time on it. I cannot stress that enough, although, please do not mistake this tip to tell you to quit your day job entirely. Do not. This involves some tricky time management but with a little discipline you'll be able to squeeze both in.

Exercise. Take a walk. Run a mile or two. Send all those endorphins coursing through your veins. Exercising certainly clears and relaxes your mind and allows for anything to pop up.

Record your dreams. Aren't some of them just the craziest things that your conscious mind would never have thought of? If you've had these dreams before, and I'm sure have, this only shows you the untapped innovative power you have lying within. So jot down those notes. Those dreams may just create an innovative spark in you.

Find your own style. You'll know Hemingway wrote something by the choice of words on the paper. So it is the same with you. People will appreciate your innovation more because it is uniquely yours and that no one else would have thought of what you were thinking. That will let people see how valuable an asset you are.

Don't hide behind nifty gadgets or tools. You don't need the most expensive set of paints to produce a masterpiece. The same way with writing. You don't need some expensive fountain pen and really smooth paper for a bestseller. In fact, J.K. Rowling wrote the first book of the Harry Potter Series on bits of tissue. So what if you've got an expensive SLR camera if you're a crappy photographer? Who cares if you've got a blinging laptop if you can't write at all? The artist actually reduces the number of tools he has as he gets better at his craft: he knows what works and what doesn't.

Nothing will work without passion. What wakes you up in the mornings? What keeps the flame burning? What is the one thing that you'll die if you don't do? Sometimes people with talent are overtaken by the people who want it more. Think the hare and the tortoise. Ellen Degeneres once said that if you're not doing something that you want to do, then you don't really want to do it. And that's true. Sometimes you just want something so bad you become a virtual unstoppable. And that is passion. Passion will keep you going.

Don't worry about inspiration. You can't force it; inspiration hits when you least expect it to, for those unpredictable yet inevitable moments you should prepare. An idea could strike you on the subway, yet alas, you poor unfortunate soul; you have no sheet of paper to scribble down a thought that could change the world. Avoid these disasters. Have a pen and paper within your arm's reach at all times.

I hope this article has helped you bring more innovation into your life. Keep in mind that you're doing these things for your own satisfaction and not anybody else's. But soon enough they will notice, and everything should snowball from there.

Winners Are People Like You

Winners take chances
Like everyone else, they fear failing
But they refuse to let fear control them

Winners don’t give up
When life gets rough, they hang in
Until the going gets better

Winners are flexible
They realize there is more than one way
And are willing to try others

Winners know they are not perfect
They respect their weaknesses
While making the most of their strengths

Winners fall but they don’t stay down
They stubbornly refuse to let a fall
Keep them from climbing

Winners don’t blame fate for their failures
Nor luck for their successes
Winners accept responsibility for their lives

Winners are positive thinkers who see
good in all things
From the ordinary, they make the extraordinary

Winners believe in the path they have chosen
Even when it is hard, even when others
Can’t see where they are going

Winners are people that believe in themselves
They make this world a better place to be

Self Improvement for Success

Everything that happens to us happens in purpose. And sometimes, one thing leads to another. Instead of locking yourself up in your cage of fears and crying over past heartaches, embarrassment and failures, treat them as your teachers and they will become your tools in both self improvement and success.

I remember watching Patch Adams – its my favorite movie, actually. Its one great film that will help you improve yourself. Hunter “patch” Adams is a medical student who failed to make it through the board exams. After months of suffering in melancholy, depression and suicidal attempts – he decided to seek for medical attention and voluntarily admitted himself in a psychiatric ward. His months of stay in the hospital led him to meeting different kinds of people. Sick people in that matter. He met a catatonic, a mentally retarded, a schizophrenic and so on. Patch found ways of treating his own ailment and finally realized he has to get back on track. He woke up one morning realizing that after all the failure and pains he has gone through, he still want to become the a doctor. He carries with himself a positive attitude that brought him self improvement and success. He didn’t only improved himself, but also the life of the people around him and the quality of life. Did he succeed? Needless to say, he became the best damn doctor his country has ever known.

So, when does self improvement become synonymous with success? Where do we start? Take these tips, friends…
*Stop thinking and feeling as if you’re a failure, because you’re not. How can others accept you if YOU can’t accept YOU?

*When you see hunks and models on TV, think more on self improvement, not self pitying. Self acceptance is not just about having nice slender legs, or great abs. Concentrate on inner beauty.

*When people feel so down and low about themselves, help them move up. Don’t go down with them. They’ll pull you down further and both of you will end up feeling inferior.

*The world is a large room for lessons, not mistakes. Don’t feel stupid and doomed forever just because you failed on a science quiz. There’s always a next time. Make rooms for self improvement.

*Take things one at a time. You don’t expect black sheep’s to be goody-two-shoes in just a snap of a finger. Self improvement is a one day at a time process.

*Self improvement results to inner stability, personality development and dig this …. SUCCESS. It comes from self confidence, self appreciation and self respect.

* Set meaningful and achievable goals. Self improvement doesn’t turn you to be the exact replica of Cameron Diaz or Ralph Fiennes. It hopes and aims to result to an improved and better YOU.

*Little things mean BIG to other people. Sometimes, we don’t realize that the little things that we do like a pat on the back, saying “hi” or “hello”, greeting someone “good day” or telling Mr. Smith something like “hey, I love your tie!” are simple things that mean so much to other people. When we’re being appreciative about beautiful things around us and other people, we also become beautiful to them.

*When you’re willing to accept change and go through the process of self improvement, it doesn’t mean that everyone else is. The world is a place where people of different values and attitude hang out. Sometimes, even if you think you and your best friend always like to do the same thing together at the same time, He/she would most likely decline an invitation for self improvement.

We should always remember that there’s no such thing as ‘over night success’. Its always a wonderful feeling to hold on to the things that you already have now, realizing that those are just one of the things you once wished for. A very nice quote says that “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” We are all here to learn our lessons. Our parents, school teachers, friends, colleagues, officemates, neighbors… they are our teachers. When we open our doors for self improvement, we increase our chances to head to the road of success.

Just Dream Your Life

Everyone, at some point of his or her life, has dreamed of being somebody special, somebody big. Who hasn't fantasized about being the one who hits the game-winning homer? Who hasn't dreamed of being the homecoming queen? And how many times have we dreamed of being rich, or successful, or happy with our relationships?

Often, we dream big dreams and have great aspirations. Unfortunately, our dreams remain just that – dreams. And our aspirations easily collect dust in our attic.

This is a sad turn of events in our life. Instead of experiencing exciting adventures in self actualization, we get caught up in the humdrum of living from day-to-day just barely existing.

But you know what? Life could be so much better, if only we learned to aim higher.

The most common problem to setting goals is the word impossible. Most people get hung up thinking I can't do this. It's too hard. It's too impossible. No one can do this.

However, if everyone thought that, there would be no inventions, no innovations, and no breakthroughs in human accomplishment.

Remember that scientists were baffled when they took a look at the humble bumblebee. Theoretically, they said, it was impossible for the bumblebee to fly. Unfortunately for the bumble, bee no one has told it so. So fly it does.

On the other hand, some people suffer from dreaming totally outrageous dreams and not acting on them. The result? Broken dreams, and tattered aspirations.

If you limit yourself with self-doubt, and self-limiting assumptions, you will never be able to break past what you deem impossible. If you reach too far out into the sky without working towards your goal, you will find yourself clinging on to the impossible dream.

Try this exercise. Take a piece of paper and write down some goals in your life. Under one header, list down things ‘you know you can do’. Under another header, write the things ‘you might be able to do.’ And under one more, list the things that that are ‘impossible for you to do.’

Now look at all the headers strive every day to accomplish the goals that are under things ‘you know you can do’. Check them when you are able to accomplish them. As you slowly are able to check all of your goals under that heading, try accomplishing the goals under the other header-the one that reads ‘you might be able to do.’

As of the items you wrote under things I could do are accomplished, you can move the goals that are under things that are ‘impossible for you to do’ to the list of things ‘you might be able to do.’

As you iterate through this process, you will find out that the goals you thought were impossible become easier to accomplish. And the impossible begin to seem possible after all.

You see, the technique here is not to limit your imagination. It is to aim high, and start working towards that goal little by little. However, it also is unwise to set a goal that is truly unrealistic.

Those who just dream towards a goal without working hard end up disappointed and disillusioned.

On the other hand, if you told someone a hundred years ago that it was possible for man to be on the moon, they would laugh at you. If you had told them that you could send mail from here to the other side of the world in a few seconds, they would say you were out of your mind. But, through sheer desire and perseverance, these impossible dreams are now realities.

Thomas Edison once said that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Nothing could be truer. For one to accomplish his or her dreams, there has to be had work and discipline. But take note that that 1% has to be a think-big dream, and not some easily accomplished one.

Ask any gym rat and he or she will tell you that there can be no gains unless you are put out of your comfort zone. Remember the saying, “No pain, no gain”? That is as true as it can be.

So dream on, friend! Don’t get caught up with your perceived limitations. Think big and work hard to attain those dreams. As you step up the ladder of progress, you will just about find out that the impossible has just become a little bit more possible.

Current IT Openings Scenario

The Y2K-, ERP- and Internet-fueled IT bubble of the late 1990s haslong-since burst. Today the overall outlook in the information technology sector is more positive and IT has entered a more stable period. According to statistics, demand for IT professionals in the following fieldswill double in the next seven years: Software Engineers, Computer Support Specialists, Network & Computer Systems Administrators, Database Administrators, Systems Analysts and Information Systems Managers. Gartner analysts predict $288 billion in online revenue by 2006, up from $72 billion in 2001. Already companies have started seeking security professionals much more aggressively. Even as the average IT job pay declined by nearly 6 percent in the past 12 months, IT security pay is up 23 percent from the first quarter of 2001.Voice of the IndustryIn case you are looking for a career in Software development, the technology demand from the industry will be especially in areas of:* Microsoft Technologies such as VB, SQL, ASP, .Net, VB.NET, ASP.NET * Java skills like J2EE, EJB, JSP, & * Language such as UNIX, C, C++, Perl For those aspiring to make it big in the area of technical support, you will be required to have a proficiency in:* Networking * Windows Operating Systems such as WIN NT & Windows 2003 * Troubleshooting * LAN & WAN And, if you are a CCNA, MCSE or an MCP certified professional, you will definitely have an edge.Emerging Employment OpportunitiesAccording to a study "Bridging the Gap: Information Technology Skills for a New Millennium" the greatest demand (70%) for IT workers is in the smaller non-IT firms (companies with 50-99 workers). The maximum demand (50%) is for professionals who specialize in technical support and network administration; next are database development and software engineering (20%) experts, followed by professionals using web development skills (13%).

As a percentage of the total expected demand, the future IT jobs are expected to be in the areas of:(Source: Nasscom Survey)
Enterprise Software
35.1%
.NET, JAVA, J2EE
22.2 %
UNIX
17.7%
SQL
12.5%

EDA,ASIC, VLSI
5.0%
ASP
4.0%
Graphics & Animation
3.2%
EAI
2.4%
Content Management
1.9%
Over the next few years, companies will continue to spend billions on e-business infrastructure and development as they continue to analyze and protect their customer data. As a result, there will be a significant emphasis on recruiting security professionals. Another growth area, web metrics and usability, is a field that is still being defined. As companies place greater emphasis on web services and increase their focus on return on investment, understanding what is effective and why will become more critical than ever.

Written Test

Tata Consultancy Services conducts a multiple choice test. The test consists
of four sections. The first section is the Verbal Section with 15 questions to be attempted in 6 minutes. The questions deal with words and their synonyms. You need a high level of vocabulary to do well in this part. The second section is a Quantitive aptitude section with 15 questions to be answered in 10 minutes. The questions deal with basic mathematics such as multiplication, percentages etc. This is the easiest among all the sections (try not to make silly mistakes). The third section is the Reading Comprehension section with 50 minutes to answer 60 questions. The fourth section is a 30 minutes Psychometric Test with 150 questions. These questions are generally simple personality based questions checking your ability to answer consistently. Usually only a Yes/No type answer is required for these questions.

Candidates clearing the test and the interview are further required to clear a paper based on C and COBOL. This paper consists of 50 questions and is MCQ format.

Interview

The test is followed by a Technical and a HR interview. The technical interview is highly specialized and covers almost all subjects you have done in your curriculum. However one is required to name his/her favorite subject on which most of the interview is focused. For Computer Engineers C, Operating Systems, DBMS, Microprocessors are mostly focused upon. Electronics Engineers can be grilled on DCLD, Microprocessors and Communications..

The HR interview which follows the technical interview is very general. The HR interview is also important. Mostly questions are asked to test your temperament. You maybe asked your opinion on a variety of current affair topics. We were asked about Homosexuality, Lesbianism (the movie FIRE), Kashmir, Genome Project etc. In some cases questions regarding the company are asked.

The early days marked TCS resonsibility in managing the punch card operations of Tisco. The company, which was into management consultancy from day one, soon felt the need to provide solutions to its clients as well.TCS was the first Indian company to make forays into the US market with clients ranging from IBM,American Express, Sega etc. TCS is presently the top software services firm in Asia.

Today, about 90 percent of TCS' revenue comes from consulting, while the rest from products. TCS has great training facilities. In addition to training around 5 percent of the revenue is spent upon its R&D centers like the Tata Research Design and Development Centre at Pune, along with a host of other centers at Mumbai and Hyderabad.

Over $25 million were spent on enhancing hardware and software infrastructure. The company now has 72 offices worldwide.

MOMENTS IN LIFE

There are moments in life when you miss someone
so much that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real!

When the door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often times we look so long at the
closed door that we don't see the one
which has been opened for us.

Don't go for looks; they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth; even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile,because it takes only a smile to
make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile.

Dream what you want to dream;go where you want to go;
be what you want to be,because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the thingsyou want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,enough sorrow to keep you human, and
enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarilyhave the best of everything;
they just make the most of
everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will alwaysbe based on a forgotten past;
you can't go forward in life until
you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were cryingand everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life so at the end,
you're the one who is smiling
and everyone
around you is crying.


Don't count the years--count the memories...........

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,but by the moments that take our breath away!

Gone with the wind

No kidding!! This u will surely enjoy!! (no secrets!!)

Gone are the days, ...........but not the memories
Gone are the days When the school reopened in June,
And we settled in our new desks and benches.

Gone are the days When we queued up in book depot,
And got our new books and notes.

Gone are the days When we wanted two Sundays and no Mondays, yet Managed to line up daily for the morning prayers.

Gone are the days We learnt writing with slates and pencils,
and progressed To fountain pens and ball pens and then micro tips.

Gone are the days We began drawing with crayons
and evolved to Colour pencils and finally sketch pens.

Gone are the days We started calculating first with tables
and then with Clarkes tables and advanced to calculators and computers.

Gone are the days When we chased one another in the corridors in Intervals,
And returned to the classrooms drenched in sweat.

Gone are the days When we had lunch in classrooms,
corridors, Playgrounds, under the trees and even in cycle sheds.

Gone are the days When all the colours in the world,
Decorated the campus on the Second Saturdays.

Gone are the days When a single P.T. period in the week's Time Table,
Was awaited more eagerly than the monsoons.

Gone are the days When cricket was played with writing pads as bats,
And Neckties and socks rolled into balls.

Gone are the days When few played "kabadi" and "Co-Co" in scorching sun,
While others simply played "book cricket" in the confines of classroom.

Gone are the days Of fights but no conspiracies,
Of Competitions but seldom jealousy.

Gone are the days When we used to watch Live Cricket telecast,
In the opposite house in Intervals and Lunch breaks.

Gone are the days When few rushed at 3:45 to
"Conquer" window seats in our School bus.

Gone are the days While few others had "Big Fun",
"pulippu muttai", "gulfi ice", "seeval ice !" and "pepsi !" at 4oClock.

Gone are the days Of Sports Day, and the annual School Day ,
And the one-month long preparations for them.

Gone are the days Of the stressful Quarterly,
Half Yearly and Annual Exams,
And the most enjoyed holidays after them.

Gone are the days Of tenth and twelfth standards,
when we Spent almost the whole year writing revision tests.

Gone are the days We learnt, we enjoyed,
we played, we won, we lost, We laughed,
we cried, we fought, we thought.

Gone are the days With so much fun in them,
so many friends, So much experience, all this and more.

Gone are the days But not the memories,
which will be Lingering in our hearts for
ever and ever and
Ever and ever and Ever


Have a great day,
