L.I.F.E@GOOGLE.COM

Now this is something many a people have told me to write( people who laugh at my psychology [:(] ..).. So here's life life at GOOOOOOOOOGLE

Google has been rated by fortune as the no. 1 company in the world to work with . Why? So well, as the name suggests , its a life full of colors, the workplace where environment seems to be just like a college .
The company is a true synonym of innovation , coz the ideas which Google has invented and implemented ,were never thought of. Be it Google earth, maps, news or even the very special Gmail. A quote of a person who visited google - “It’s like college, you have to be able to problem solve on your own, not simply stop andhope another team member can fix it for you”.

Fun@work - Well i ve seen some videos of our Googleplex in mountainview , n i can tel u , u cant have more fun anywhere else. The free food - what people say is the most inspiring factor to work at google- is just one of them . Shabbily dressed people , eating most of the time (but coding most of the time) playing with the google toys.. having fun. The google offsites and the frudays here add to the loads of fun and masti . The cafe, snack rooms , TT and pool tables and the break out rooms are just places to chill out.

... To be continued next week (because i really want to know what all i can write here)

the essence of life..

So ppl this is a disclaimer : please read at ur own risk.. my psychology.. could sound really boring to u.. never planned to write such a post.. but.. here i go

Well i dunno where to begin from.. but i have thought a lot about it.. what is the essence of ur life.. what is the purpose of living.. jus think over it for a minute.. i m sure u wud scratch ur head and come to the following options:
-Name and Fame
-MONEY $$$$$$
-Material things -includes the best luxuries in this world - the biggest bungalows, the most luxurious cars, the finest wines, the best 'babes' (n sex!! of course)
-Fun and enjoyment

Now Check out this survey:
How would you define a successful life? What do you need to do to be successful? What do you need from life
Here are just a few Girls' answers to this question:
~"A successful life would be one in which I am happy, my family is happy, and healthy. My family has a comfortable income, and we have enough money to be comfortable. To be successful you need to be smart, honest, ambitious, and hardworking."
~"Money! Cars! Big House! Fluffy Dog! Diamond Rings! Lush hubby! Angel kid! Happiness! I WANT IT ALL!"
~"A successful life is doing the best, and being the best person you can be. You don't have to be rich or have the most sought-after job, but if you just make your life the best it can be, it will be very successful:)"
~"Success is enjoying being around yourself and others wanting to be around you. To be successful, you need to be overall a good person--honest, faithful, and dependable."
~"A husband who is always there for you. Kids. Not to have to worry about money, drugs, rape, and violence."

So this was a survey for girls.. what i wanna say here is tht the essence of life is .. LOVE .. yes this could sound philosophy to u readers.. but its not.. i can say this .. here's how

What a human wants in life is happiness(almost 50% of the votes in the above survey) .. n you cant be happy only with money .. or cars.. or sex.. You can only be happy when you are loved .. and when you love the people who u r with.. when u know u r special for th ones around you.. when u know ur life makes a difference to them.. n their life means a lot to you.. Only then you are happy.. LOVE is wat gets happiness..

However this is not the end.. the biggest achievement in life is living for others .. a selfless living(i know this has got very philosophic .. but sorry .. jus my views ) .. a life just to make others happy.. a perfect altruist.. a person whose life is meant for someone else!!!!.. i wud always salute such people.. my respect for them.......................
