Challenge yourself, enhance your learning, gain wisdom

One of the good point about Gandhi Ji was that his mind was restless. He always tried something new, he never was contented with his present. He never thought once in his life that he is settled, at peace and satisfied. I think this is one of the many reasons that he was a great person. He never tried to hide his mistakes/faults. He denied primary education to his children, his elder son was very unhappy with him for this. Unfortunately, this was also one of his experiment with life. But many of his other experiments like cleanliness, ahinsa were globally appreciated and accepted. So, don't stop yourself from experimenting, just because of the fear of failing or non-acceptance by society. I agree there is risk, but risk is there in anything and everything in life, the only difference is our faith in the outcome. We are generally happy in taking those calculative risk, where the results are more or less favorable. Challenging yourself is the best thing a person can do all his life. It also enhances the learning, knowledge, and wisdom of a person. Its quite easy to get into a comfort zone, which also means reducing the challenges and risks. It is obvious that it will be a 'good feeling' zone, but it definitely leads to a stagnant and dull life.

A little into attitude and life principles

A person who seems impatient at work front might be very patient in his personal and family life. The way one displays his virtue at any particular point of time or place all depends on the situation, his mental strength and his experiences. If a person is left with no other choice but to show patience, then he ends up being patient. But, if you have options then definitely you will react or display the attitude that is easily reachable and not the one which is hard to show.  In earlier days, great living principles were attained by very few people. For more than 90% of the population, the aim in life was to earn bread and live healthy and disease-free. Only a few were there with zeal and enthusiasm to make their life useful and achieve something. But, if we look around us, one will find persons with courage/endurance/patience and other great abilities in them. But, many times they feel it is redundant to show them, and in some cases, they don't realize their posse...

Which is the best OS for atom netbooks????

Although laptop makers recommend using windows 7 starter or basic edition for netbook to get best performance, but unfortunately that doesn't happen. I have tried three versions of windows 7- basic, starter and professional. It does run, and you can do things, but will hang in between. The reason being, windows itself is taking ~50-70% of your RAM. So with 1 gb RAM, there is hardly much space left to really work. Even with internet surfing you will see that it stuck many times when there are heavy sites or multiple windows open, as RAM usage reaches more than 90%. I bought my netbook (Asus x101ch) with the hope it will be much easy for me to do simple things  like surfing, listening music etc. But, with OS mentioned above its really not smooth. I have found that XP runs much better, faster and smoother. But for the latest netbooks like the one I have, drivers are the issues, you don't get drivers for XP.

Happiness is an attitude, stop comparing and focus, be happy and live your life.

The common thing which I hear from people is that the present is not good, I don't deserve this, I should be somewhere else, etc . But, if you analyze your life, you will find that only the attitude is not changing otherwise every single part of your life is constantly changing. The problems and issues you are facing in the present were not there in the past, and may not be there in the future also. Same way, the problems with which you were struggling with in past are no more now, they got solved or dissolved with time. Life issues/problems have different ranges, some are short span and get solved/resolved within months or maybe a year, but some take longer time. But every single of them gets out of your life ultimately. The thing which sustains with you is patience and your precious life. The events happening in one's life is predestined, it never is/was what one expects from god, but it is always what God wants and is in good favor of person in the long run. We do feel...
