# AZADI- We can be interdependent once we are independent !

I was waiting for the right time to write about this !
Had a wish to be independent of my parents (which was majorly concerned of financial freedom) this point lead me to the thought of understanding the real definition of independence.Then I did the same thing, that anyone one of us do these days- ' googled it ! '. It was something like this :
independence
/ɪndɪˈpɛnd(ə)ns/
noun
  1. the fact or state of being independent.

    "Argentina gained independence from Spain in 1816"
    synonyms:self-government, self-rule, home rule, self-legislation, self-determination, sovereignty, autonomy, non-alignment, freedom, liberty; More
Translate independence to

noun
  1. 1. स्वतंत्रता
  2. 2. आज़ादी

 I thought whether "I could be ever independent of anyone ?". Anyone cannot be completely independent. We all are interconnected we all are dependent for example ' If a nuclear test fails very badly at some place on earth may be it will be bad for whole earth not for that place only !'.  So whats the point in celebrating the independence day ?

The question seems rough but till the time I felt  like celebrating this day as attending flag hosting in the school , participating in speech competition, watching related movies on TV and celebrate the holiday ! But now Ill tell you what I have realized,


Let's begin,
When I was going through these thoughts I realized that I wanted to be ,
   'F R E E  not  I N D P E N D E N T'
Freedom is a feeling while the independence is a position or being state but the real freedom comes once we are independent. I would like illustrate this with example ," I asked mom i wanted to open a restaurant, she said "first do a job, earn money then do whatever you want" .Indirectly she was saying first be independent then you're free. Many of us struggle for freedom , freedom for living life their way, freedom of doing whatever they like , eating what they want , sleep and wake-up when they want ,but for this they must be independent .
So now I can conclude that we celebrate the 15th august every year since that day India become free , became independent of  the British rule. Indians free to decide their leader, free to speak , free to write, free to do many things that we do every day. So to thank the people, remember the legends who happily sacrificed their life asking for no returns so that we can be free. So its really a great to start its not just a holiday its an opportunity to educate people about the real Independence. Because we can be really together well interdependent once we are individually independent.

PS: If you really want to celebrate the Independence day, well I can suggest you that let someone aware about the freedom he has in his life and make them realize the price someone is paying for his freedom,  he will no longer be the same person as before. Start with yourself !

The General solution

You stuck in a problem, let that be of any kind (Relationships, Financial Planning , Career ) and trying to find a way out. The most common way you'll prefer will be reading a book ,consulting someone or taking advices from the experts. But the person who is writing that book or the one to whom you are consulting is answering your question based on his own experience. So in that case the solution you might hear would be his customized solution for the case. The customized solutions are the one which are (problem specific and person specific ) so their application in our case may workout , workout on partial extent or can make things even worse. The general solution is the origin of all the specific answers to that issue . When particular conditions and constraints are applied to it the general solution can be turned into a customized solution. General solutions are mostly certain critical principles ( Jugaad ) ; Trivial methods from different areas of life or the mentality (m...

The teachers at life school !

Everybody of us must have attended school, college in their life, but we never noticed the biggest and the realest school outside of our school/college building, the school called "THE LIFE SCHOOL".Yes, the life school where everybody has to go, where teachers are experience,incidents,mistakes,books,novels,internet etc. Here everybody learns according to his capacity,passion,way of thinking and self instincts to try different things. Have you ever wondered how Steve jobs built his empire apple,?without having any formal education in business analysis .or how Dhirubhai Ambani started reliance industries as before he was a spice dealer.?  these two being business tycoon. The life school also have students like wright brothers , Isaac newton , Albert Einstein who changed the scientific vision  of the world . No one taught the biggest business men how analyze chart and interpret result , how to  get the work done. No one taught great scientist the ways to find out ...

The habit loop

Okay!   As the last post about the about the power of habit book mentions, here we go for looking ‘the habit loop’. This is a thoughtful model about the habit formation, understanding which will be helpful in forming and changing the habit that we already have and the habits we want to form. Some fact checks about habits before start reading about the habit loop. 1.     Habits storage (Basal ganglia) in the brain is not same as the memory storage (different parts of brain, depending upon the type of memory) means if a person is suffering from a disease which is affecting his memory storage, won’t feel any problem in performing his daily routine which he was habitual to. 2.     Habits formation is a not lengthy nor a short process, it depends upon the extent of desire which is behind that habit. 3.     Habit is a thing which a person does mostly unconsciously, so when we set a habit it takes less will power to do it so choose them...
