For most of us life is just one organized chaos, though we plan meticulously to the finest detail, it never goes according to plan though we get the desired result. India is one fine example of organized chaos (OC), the worlds largest democracy we have the most corrupt system but life goes on unlike our neighbors we enjoy relative stability .One more example is the traffic in Bangalore we have some of the most awful road and traffic jams but most of us can calculate the time we need to reach our destination, its really captivating. Some from the west comes here he would go totally nutty but we Indian’s know how to handle this chaos in a very organized way.
I have been always fascinated by these management books how people achieve by planning,forecasting and stuff like that but what happens actually is quiet different .Its better to understand who we are what suits us better and use this to our advantage. I had a friend who was the finest example of OC he used to study only the night before the exam and pass ,after getting lot of advice from parents and teachers he started to put in effort from the beginning of the course ,he did this but hi grades hardly improved .So what he learnt was it was better to do a crash course at the end than slog out the whole year. I know I will be getting lot of flak parents reading this blog (heheh)

Funny..... Giving you one more example....the indian team of the world cup fame of `83 almost never practiced, they went to England as if on a vaction....and they won! and Look at our South Africa they win the world but manage to falter at the world cup...So tis the performance on the day that counts and not necessarily preparation.
