Excerpt from the Speech given by Chetan Bhagat at Symbiosis.
{Chetan Bhagat (born 22 April 1974) is an Indian English language author. He is the author of three bestsellers: Five Point Someone - What not to do at IIT, One Night @ the Call Center, The Three Mistakes of My Life. He is also the scriptwriter for 'Hello', the Bollywood movie based on One Night @ the Call Center.}

Life is one of those races in nursery school where you have to run with a marble in a spoon kept in your mouth. If the marble falls, there is no point coming first. Same with life; where health and relationships are the marble. Your striving is only worth it if there is harmony in your life. Else, you may achieve the success, but this spark, this feeling of being excited and alive, will start to die.


One thing about nurturing the spark - don't take life seriously. Life is not to be taken seriously, as we are really temporary here. We are like a pre-paid card with limited validity. If we are lucky, we may last another 50 years. And 50 years is just 2,500 weekends. Do we really need to get so worked up? It's ok, bunk a few classes, goof up a few interviews, fall in love. We are people, not programmed devices.

 

"Don't be serious, be sincere."


Enjoy the moments................

Chetan's statement is in line with what Steve Jobs say. Onething I would like to say is that achievers will always say not to take life so seriously. Strange, but, it is true. Dr.Abdul Kalam has achieved so much in life as the entire world agrees, but, in his book "Wings of Fire", he regrets for neglecting his family when he was working as a scientist.
