Commitment: Poorna Samarpana

The Path to Success. यस्य समर्पणं कृतम Total Commitment. Recently, I heard Dr Sudha Murthy talk about her husband,Mr Narayan Murthy's Commitment and Dedication towards Infosys. She said" The success of Infosys is the total Commitment and Dedication of all its Patrons and Employees towards their work" When in education period,many students work equally hard.Some are extremely brilliant. But only few students get academic excellence. Why? The reason is Total Commitment. Just intelligence ,hard work, never guarantees success. It is Focus,Dedication and Commitment towards your goal. Once you start the Career path....all have Desire to bring innovation for a better life ...a Prosperous future. Many start with path breaking ideas. Thousands show the zeal and enthusiasm. But in due course of time, handful remain Committed to the Focus....the ultimate Goal. Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination, dedication and commitment to an unrelenting pur...

A Shrub

A Shrub ....... A few days back,the social media had a video gone viral in which a kid ...maybe around 2 or 3 yrs...was being kicked,bitten,bullied,banged by her own classmate in a posh playhome in Bengaluru suburb.The parents were shocked to see the CCTV recording.What was shocking ...was to see the violent attitude of a 2 or 3 yr old kid towards his own compatriot. I would like to narrate an incident I have seen as an Anaesthesiologist in my private practice. A teen was admitted with Ulcers on his both foot which were erupting repeatedly inspite of all investigations being normal. When under sedation during his dressing, the teen blurted out that he injected into his own skin liquid mosquito repellant to cause those Ulcers....so that he gained attention and sympathy from his parents and he managed to get from them whatever he wanted. Dear Friends, my this blog wants to highlight modern methods of parenting...... Today,due to inflation, both parents have to work long hours.The ki...

Poem by Anaesthesiologist

A romantic poem by Anaesthesiologist...... As I rest my head lovingly on your chest.... My Anaesthesia Brain suddenly over rides my heart...... My ears hear your racing heartbeats.... My mind says " Ah,Sinus Tachycardia, normal rate, normal rhythm, a few regularly skipped beats " I feel husband warm breath.... My ears start hearing his breathsounds.. " Ah, AEBE( Air entry bilaterally equal).No added sounds " Suddenly I hear husband peristaltic rumble..... " Ah,no electrolyte imbalance. Potassiums normal". I look up gaze lovingly ..... But here too my Anaesthesiologist gaze takes over my heart...... Jugular vein too good,Central cannulation v easy. ........ Further I need not go..........

Essence of Success.

 How successful are you? This is often asked question to one ownself and also by others to you. What is measurement of success in our life? Is it measured by the power I have attained in my social circuit? Is it by the number of people who know me in the society? Is it on basis of materialistic exploits I have managed in my life? Is it education, degree,power,wealth???? What is definition of success? I had once gone for a funeral if an octogenarian. Saddened when his son commented" My father managed to earn only name as a good person. But absolutely no wealth .What is use if good name in today's world where everything and all that matters runs on power of money." I am today at an age where actually all that matters runs on power of money.Yes,money is important. But for survival and good life especially after retirement.  Yesterday, my mother who worked for many years in the Meteorological department in Mumbai ,was felicitated by her Junior staff even after retiring from h...

Atmaja/Atmajah.

 Atmaja= Daughter  Atmajah=Son. Sanskrit synonyms for my Prodigy.  My mini - me is an individual different in form but shares my Atma= Soul. I write this blog sharing my Motherhood experiences with my Atmaja/h.....my daughter/son. Motherhood is indeed a beautiful feeling which keeps changing as the prodigy starts growing.  Infancy brings the warmth of small fingers clasping your hand.The warmth and sweet smell of their bodies and breath when they snuggle close to you.The milestones and their curiosity about the world and people around. Teens bring the rebel in them.Yes at times it us frustrating and very challenging dealing with their Gen Z outlook towards everting and everyone.It is this phase where parenting skills read in books go into burner.The true test of my Motherhood actually came into picture.It tested my patience, my values, my understanding of everything......I was actually the one crossing the test of time. When they were at brink of adulthood, I was mad...
