2 by 2 matrix

One beauty of management education is that in any subject for most of the concept, their is choice of selecting one of the quadrant of 2 by 2 matrix.. It is all trade off and decision making. there will be two parameters with two values streched and 4 different styles !!

i got one great idea !! i will  collect all such 2 by 2 matrices from all the subjects and will put it together and will publish 200 page book "2 by 2 "..And under each page , i will put interpretation of that concept in  real life wihin 2 sentences.. !!

Vision statement for my shaolin school will be MANAGEMENT OF LIFE -  finding the conficts of free mind. Deciding the trade-off. washing all other quadrants and following your passion !! 

Let hope each one will able to implement above statement in their own life including me....

race is on....

Last two week whole batch was enjoying quite relax schedule very rare in their buzy b-school life..then came the news of bad CRP in campus.. People started feeling pressure..then came result for 2 nd term.. there were quite a few prof in 2 nd term , who gave very bad grades.. decrease in CQPI.. what to do now ? You can't imagine the atmosphere in our batch now. Next week is going to be reflection of all..I am dam sure atleast 10-20 people will be there , who will spend their whole week sleepless.. add on to that we have lot of submission and 4, big 4 midterms..I really feel scary by imagining the next week situation in Xl..

I feel lost in such environment.. How one B-school should be ? They should go to various places and should solve real problem.. If grades are out, nobody should even visit the office as actually study is not grades but something else. I know that people have taken loans and that is the reason why they feel pressure...but anyway according to me these people are of such catagories that resulted in action of taking 7 lakh loan and coming for mba education. My dream of education and what i am actually doing are completely different.. But i have to that.. for first year.From second year , i will study on my own way !!

I had imagined that my XL fellows would be each one diamond having high self efficacy and doing something different.. but there are very few like this.

Conflict and trade off are fancy terms to study in management education...But in real life , what a big role they are playing ? God, give me the power to choose right one..Ya, i will create my own school of shaolin were , i will learn all this.

Leaves and flowers are falling down.. Vasanta (most probably) has started.. What a beauty it is.. XL campus is really heaven.. Why cant we have some Bodhi tree class or JLT katta sessions ? there is great need of dynamism in XL..

Now philosophy is over.. I have a marketing and IR class.. Again back to study of such a  system that to lock the people than providing them freedom..?

again after long time !!

when u start writing after long days , it becomes difficult to write..there are so many things but all trying to go in back up and nothing nin catche ..:)

Recently important activities in life are - XL-IIMC meet cancelled because of shift of placement(global effect on local sport meet :)), conflicts about motivation and learning theme going through my mind, Chilka Sarovar travelling, reading Jungle book again, Sigma conference- vijay Mahajan speech, seniors placement and so on...

First time in six month i am in confused state- feeling the distance from Jnana Prabodhini..

I think manthan is going inside my mind. something will come out after one or two month..Everything going under turbulence, issue of emotional independancy, social entrepreneur Vs Faculty, some thing missing in life - dont know what ?..After this one month and 3 month summer, i am hoping that i will again in no question state..somebody in my college got job for 1600000...What really worth that ? I have seen people working 14-16 hrs and earning 50 rs...What is answer for this ? why it is like this ? And height is that people have ""services"" for serving these people during placement.. I cant do that... I dont understand that..

Good thing is that i can observe myself during all this and can laugh on myself watching as a third person..

One thing is clear, nobody can give answer to your queries. You have to find answers on your own.

diary pointers

Now days i am getting free time but not that free where i can enjoy writing the blog. So today i will write few points abt major events and learning.

• Sudden plan (10 min before) and biking from jamashedpur to Ranchi in heavy fog and chill cold in the night
• Maxi fair -work- sponsership work, ticket selling work and actual event day work (JP ani yuvi athavala, pan JP chi dhamal vegalich :))
• current questions inside the mind - my future life, does i am changing with XL ? , emotional dependance (better word - ownership issue), what is stable in once life ? all the things are changing...
• Kakani- one good prof in finance has actually occupied all the life of my batchmates. :)
• XL - IIM C meet preparations.

Novelty in life

First three days and XL life began with full energy. I am enjoying it and i want more and more strech.It is real fun of learning. 

Now, considering that i will have this long strech for 4 year :), what will be the novelty in the life ?

or any way for any body what is there that drive it ? i know, i am surely better than most of the people who are flowing with currents or having normal routine but then again what is novelty in my some different or own currents as  its again routine ...

So i will like to find that

Noveltty (as early as possible.)

Most of the people live not for novelty but for somebody else. Say GF, wife, childrens or society, or some dream.For all these people its emotions that drives their life.

But 

if i am thinking of living life as a learner or one with doing all but filling nothing... i need novelty and not emotions.

Currently i am impulsive and thus positive towards all the learning as well as experiences...but what if this impulse go down ? 

i need to maintain this impulse...(convert ac to dc :)..)

last one

if we find meaning in life and started living for that will we loose novelty ?

thus novelty and meaning goes against each other?

now leaving it ,

enjoying maxi admin work, football practice, kakani's work and all !! keep it up GAURAV !!

After long gap - just to start again

My last writing was on 28th nov. So i just wanted to restart it. Chinmay's writing in Marathi inspired me to write again atleast in english. After 28 th nov lot of learning in two busy week in Xl and meeting all friends and relative back in Pune.

I will write separately on that in one or two days.

Today i have started my third term in XL. i think i am in best mood to learn. I had glance through varsharambha upasana.Best part of trimester pattern is that you can make your "Sankalpas" and re-energies yourself after just 3 month gap rather than year long. :) 

I have three big event in XL in next month. Lot of interaction with groups and team. I will finalise my Sankalpa's for this trimester in two days. I want to generate momentum in this week itself.

thats it !  This is just kick start . I hope it will start ignition that will continue for three months.
