*APAD-30-Dec-1-2023-Checklist-based-life* Starting with waking up, how many tasks we start & complete on time. ராத்திரி பத்து மணிக்கு வெத்தலைபாக்கு வாங்கிக்கப் போயிருக்கீங்களா? Staring from waking up in the morning, how many tasks we do at the proper time? Having a synergic lifestyle and reducing actives of personal pleasure makes us to live a holistic life. Starting with a checklist of tasks is fine. Even better is the schedule to start & complete them.

APAD-23-Nov-24-2023-Postponing-marriage-and-child-birth Jeyamohan started venmurasu in 2013, Seth Godin started many of his ventures around the same period. Why we are postponing marriages & children (plural!) At the end, the only reason to postpone marriage/children is (y)our personal pleasure, we need to seriously rethink. How truthful is the reality? The ‘made-for-each-other myth that deceives us. The demographics factor of both the partners and more importantly their parents. No perfect workable, predictive process for marriage/child growth. The only rule might be ‘Restrict our pleasure to the minimum’ If we unnecessarily postpone marriage / child birth, later that we might be forced to think we had done a big mistake. In Ramayana, Sita was 6 and Rama was 12 at the time of wedding ;-)

குடும்பத்தின் பெயரால் நாம் எதையெதை இழக்கிறோம், எதெதெற்கெல்லாம் மன்னிப்புக் கோருகிறோம். *சிலுவையின் பெயரால்* புத்தகத்தின் burp: எந்த மதமும் அமைப்பாகி அரசியலாகி அந்த முதல் கண்ணீர்த்துளியில் இருந்து வெகுவாக விலகிவிடுகிறது. அவ்விலகல் மீதான என் கண்டனத்தைப் பதிவுசெய்வதுகூட கிறிஸ்துவை மேலும் நெருங்கும் முயற்சியே என உணர்கிறேன். இந்நூலில் இவ்விரு இயக்கங்களும் ஒரே சமயம் நிகழ்ந்துள்ளன. என் கிறிஸ்துவை சொற்கள் மூலம் மேலும் அறியும் முயற்சி. அவரை மறைக்கும் விஷயங்களை சொற்கள் மூலம் கிழித்தகற்றும் முயற்சியும் கூட. என் இணைக்குப் பிடிக்காது என்ற ஒரே காரணத்திற்காக நாம் கைவிடும் நல்லவை/அல்லவை எவை எவ்வளவு தேறும் என்ற சாபக்கேடான கேள்வி We assume our Families/houses to be very relaxed at all time, nothing serious should be done or discussed in families.

Decisions are a hard part to all of us. So we (un)consciously copy others. At an individual level which friend/relation impacts our decision/conversation Market, Neighbourhood, friends & relatives - The order changed in the modern times. Better to write as much as we can.

Why we need to have a 21-day / 48-day / lifetime project? In what way it is essential? Parkinson's law - We will stretch our work to suit that day. So when we have a daily schedule (which covers our project), we will do more. Kindles the curiosity & We will have something to beat the ennui Reinforcement of daily habit. Consistent efforts. The only way to learn new things is to have a project always . We don't indulge in over-eating, Social media, gossip, Smoking... Everything we do to beat that boredom. Jeyamohan's claim that our life lacks தீவிரம். This project will give that intensity

80-20 rule and reverse it. Define a routine and finish that as earliest as possible without procrastination. After which we should have free time. Do not buy what others say. Start small, Experiment and then decide. Walking, Avoiding agencies & outsourcing, exercises, consistent habits — all of which will not have takers. The mass will be against it. Shun the masses! Be an artist. Try as many things as you can. One simple rule is try to find why the mass rejects it - Is it because it is tough to maintain (but actually very useful)? Then you should go for it!

We (team of 30, 7 families + 3 bachelors) travelled to Srinagar with Abbas on Feb 5-8, 2023 He was friendly & responsive. Lovely trails package included the rope car tickets to Gulmarg & also the chain of taxies we need to hire in various places. The hotel which they arranged (Milan, Srinagar) was top notch. Few suggestions: 1. They can suggest the tourists to buy winter clothing (gloves, socks, caps, jerkins, etc.) in Srinagar on the Zeroth evening of the tour 2. They can say that the boots can be rented near the tourist spots (Both of the above will reduce our luggage very much) 3. They can friendly warn/suggest the family tourists to prepare early for the outing so that the overall group’s time is not dampened by the kids. Overall, a 5-star rating to Lovely Trails (Venkatramanan)
