I am Back :) with the "Greatness Guide"

I am back :)
My last post was on July 22nd 2008....That was hell of a break .... I felt I should start writing again.

I'm reading this incredible book called "Greatness Guide" by Robin Sharma and I must tell, you cant stop reading it. I just started thinking "ok , let me read 1 chapter to start with"... then I went to the 2nd then to the 3rd... and read up to 10th chapter.

I must say, that book is AMAZING. Every one should and must read this book. It will change how you see things in your day to day life, both personal and professional.

Let me quote a couple of statements which are really inspiring:

• Nothing fails like Success - Richard Carrion, CEO - Popular, Inc.
  
• If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep the streets even as Michelangelo painted, or as Beethoven composed music or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, 'here lived a great sweeper who did his job well.' - Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.
• Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. -Mark Twain
• Leadership beings on the Extra Mile - Robin Sharma.

These are just a few which really made me think ..... and that too just from the first ten chapters....

More to come... In my next post :)

Express or Experience Extreme Emotions (E/EEE)

Yeah!!! Even I was wondering what that was :) and someone seem to have done a good amount of research on this. This is clearly expressed in most of our Bollywood films which is described as the "FORCI" - the Formula of Cinema. A lot was spoken about Taare Zameen Par, people loving the movie, crying in the theaters, saying it changed their approach etc etc and I agree to it too. I will also acknowledge that the FORCI formula worked wonders here. And if you want to know more about all the FORCI thingy, you may read it here.

Om Shanti Om !

Om Shanti Om,a home production of Shahrukh Khan is a very good entertainer that will have the audience want for more. This is a typical Manmohan Desai film made in a new avtaar by Farah Khan. Its a brilliant movie by Mushtaq Shaikh and Farah Khan (screenplay). Certain incidents happen, and Shah Rukh Khan is murdered. Shah Rukh Khan plays a junior artist who dies during the 70s but is reborn as a superstar and starts to remember his previous life.

In the first half of the movie there are several moments of comedy : the premiere of ‘Dreamy Girl’, the Manoj Kumar episode, Ghai directing Rishi on ‘Om Shanti Om’ song etc. The second half moves into a total new zone. SRK finds his lady love ShantiPriya, played by Deepika Padukone, who was the love of Om in his first life.
Another jhatka is when Arjun Rampal takes Deepika to the set of his film 'Om Shanti Om' and the entire episode that follows, right till the intermission, is spellbinding. The very fact that Om Shanti Om is a Manmohan Desai kind of a film set in the present-day, it would be foolish to ask questions or raise eyebrows and look for logic.

On the whole, Om Shanti Om is is an out and out Bollywood masala in its truest form and at its best.

iPhone Security Problems

A security researcher warned recently that there are ways the iPhone could potentially be hacked. iPhone does not have a security software, but it doesn't allow people to load third-party programs, resulting in the reduction of risk of infection from malicious software. But the problem arises when the iPhone is connected to the Web, said Marius Van Oers, a security researcher with McAfee.
"He listed many ways that hackers could use to try to find a way in though he did not claim to have a specific security issue in the device."It's fairly easy to send someone an SMS (Short Messaging Service) or an e-mail with a Web link," he said. "And once you go to the Web link, then that server can inject code into the iPhone, and if that happens, [a hacker] can have full control." He also said that Apple allows JavaScript when the iPhone interacts with Web pages.

Hacking mobile devices is less popular than hacking desktop computers. But interesting and dangerous programs have been written for mobile phones, some of them repeatedly autodial or send text messages to a number. That number would be owned by the hackers, who collect the revenue.

These kind of chances of malicious software affecting the iPhone today is probably low, but "that's the future. Let's hope it will not come to that," van Oers said.
