twists in my life #3

One of the newest passions I've unlocked just after the completion of my home-schooling journey was Master of ceremony. 
It has given me numerous event management skills and shed light of the hidden responsibilities of holding the mike. 
From preparing a script after understanding the schedule to delivering the needed instructions on spot I've gather a bag full of knowledge. It is a great shift from being a member in the large audience to being the member who steers the event. 
Just a year ago my voice was shivery unsure if the listener understands. My confidence was was so under the blanket that people asked to repeat every word I uttered. With these qualities I'm quite surprised to realise that holding the Mike has bought great strength and not any fear. 
It wasn't something that came to me naturally. At the beginning it was just one of the many new things I tried. I never imagined I would do it again. Continuing to mc for various events at college was really out of my thinking span. 
I remember what I did when I was given my first script quite to well. It was around 2 pages with a 1 days schedule. But I finished reading it within 5 mins. Just like reading aloud, I'd thought. 
We lots of practice and patience I understood it's not about reading it's about conveying information to people so they understand it the next moment. 
MoC is also not only about reading instructions but to keep an eye on the stage and ensure the show runs smoothly. The dignitaries must receive their due respect and the gratitude must be showered at each person involved in the program on stage or off stage momentarily. 
I've still not become very good at the art of mc.  But I've gained lots of knowledge from it not only about mc but how to talk and be in general. 
Very often the responsibility comes with a lot of tension and stress but it can't be transported into the voice so striking a balance has been the key. 
I sincerely thank all the faculty who persistently motivated me to take up the role and believed in my capabilities!

it's really happening

When it all happens too fast  When you realise sitting around isn't an option anymore  When you feel the anxiety building  When your heart starts beating faster When your mind races imagining the impossible When your surroundings are quiet and dark but your gut pushes you to get out  When all that was once a routine slowly starts to end  When all the mistakes replay in your mind  When all your dreams aren't only what you see in sleep but the fuel to make everyday brighter Maybe that's when life's happening  Pulling you to make your decisions and draw your plan  Urging you to succeed in such a phenomenal way that even you had never imagined  Just random feelings and thoughts  - BHARATHI SENTHILKUMAR

WAYS OF THE MIND :D

  A churning storm,   a hidden rage,   But on my face, a practiced page.   No messy feelings, just cool clicks, A clockwork heart, with hidden tricks. The ways of the mind. What happens when you are constantly questioning things you cant change. Maybe that's the turbulence of the mind. The pilot who trains to fly through the turbulence is maybe the one who becomes successful. -Bharathi Senthilkumar

Survival vs. Success

It's a common misconception that survival and success are synonymous. While surviving challenges is undoubtedly a significant achievement, it doesn't necessarily equate to a fulfilling life. This post attempts to give perspective into the nuances of survival and success, exploring how they intersect and diverge. Historically, survival was the primary goal of human existence. Hunters and gatherers faced daily threats from predators and environmental factors. Their ability to adapt and overcome these challenges was paramount. Today, while our immediate threats have evolved, the fundamental need for survival persists. However, success is more than just staying alive. It involves achieving a sense of fulfillment, purpose, and well-being. This can be achieved through personal growth, career advancement, meaningful relationships, or contributions to society. Innovation has been a double-edged sword. It's increased our odds of survival, but it's also created new complexities. ...
