Maximizing happiness from micro moments !!

Indeed!! Many waits for an event, an occasion , a reason ,a particular day ,an evening to celebrate ,meet and great and enjoy but why do one need a reason for all this ,Why a day ,an event ,an occasion is required to celebrate .
I am celebrating each moment at the fullest. All wants to live long and peacefully .But nothing guarantees any ones life.For instance ,the recent earthquake has taken many lives in Nepal.
So why not to live a life or each day as if it is our last day.
That is what I am doing ,I maximize my happiness in every smaller moment I live in .
When even I buy small things that also give me immense pleasure ,I wrap out the cover slowly and give some background commentary to feel the pleasure of buying things.

Every weekend I talk to all my dear and loved ones,I make new friends and be in contact with them.Wishing a birthday to anyone will make him/her happy.These are smaller things I take care of.I try my best to wish anyone I know 'A very Happy Birthday' .These are small things which come in big pocket which makes people happy and make them feel special and indeed it don't take any hardship to do so.

While going in a public transport.If  I see an old age uncle or any lady standing nearby.I offer them a seat .Which make myself happy ,so do to the person whom I offer.yes this are small little things but it give be maximum happiness and gives a feel good factor to the lady,uncle anyone whom I offer.

When a small child,my cousin, my niece comes ,I talk to them with there common sense .Offer them chocolates,Play with them the way they plays.Even play stupid games which give them immense pleasure and so do me . It is always a learning and I love all this.

Even at my workplace ,Many college freshers joins and they are always in the mood of skipping works and go for hangout ...ha ha but this time I don't follow them ,I make such an environment where we talk ,we work and we hangout together so that even we can achieve the organisation goal and each of us desire.We need to accommodate and inherit traits of each other and must enjoy life at the fullest ,In the process we maximize our micro moments to a maximum happiness and  hence we #CelebrateLife at the fullest.

Gen Y chooses which Indian E commerce Sites and when .........

A sample set of a Gen Y person(I am referring to myself).Who earns almost 40K a month, spends how much and on which items and on which e commerce sites.What is my favorite e commerce sites in recent times and which e commerce site I have never shopped in. Answer to all these in this post below.

The people who shy buying any items from e commerce site and when I tell them these all items I bought from e commerce sites ,they feel unbelievable .
I start with Flipkart which is one of my favourite in recent times

The cross marked shows the item I have returned and the shaded yellow marked says the item which
 is priced less.Out of last 10 purchases 6 comes flipkart.So in recent times flipkart is my favorite .
I have purchased 14 items till date and total spending is 22788 Rs so average is around 1628 Rs per Item. The total spending which I did in Flipkart is comparatively less than the other eCommerce sites because on many occassion I saw flipkart doesnt sell big home products which were available in Snapdeal and infibeam etc.

Now moving to amazon which also comes as one of my favorite at recent times .
The rest 4 out of 10 which I have bought in recent times comes from Amazon.Note :my last  2 purchases were from Amazon.

As of now I have bought 5 items from Amazon and my recent 2 buys are from Amazon only.The
total spending in Amazon till date is 8045.5.Which is somehow nearer to the Average spending per item on Flipkart.Which comes out to be 1610 Rs.

But Unfortunately ,Both Amazon and Flipkart is not the ecommerce where I have spend highest.
Lets bring them those where I have spend more than both this ecommerce King.
Here comes Infibeam,From where I have bought the item which is of the highest spending by
me on an item  in any eCommerce site till date.

Though the status is Showing Pending yet ,But the item was delivered and I paid for the same.
The Price is 38.3k for an Led Tv.But after this purchase I never did purchase in this portal
 and even forget to see the price before ordering in any portal.

The ECommerce Site where spending is at par and is second highest
 spending by me is Snapdeal.

The Total spending till date is 37K in 2 items .I have no purchased any item from snapdeal since last 15 months.The above washing machine has been delivered to me but still the system error showing as Status :Processing

Now comes those portal where I purchased very rare.
From Ebay I have purchased only 2 items till date. and total spending is 1250 Rs approximately

I rarely do any price comparison  while purchasing  any item .

The 2nd set where I purchased only 1 item is Jabong .

I purchased only one item till date But average spending is 2397 Rs which is above flipkart and Amazon.
And those eCommerce sites which is not in the list .I have never purchased any items from them .
Total spending by me till date on Ecommerce sites comes out to be 110K approximately.

How #hashtag trends on Twitter

Twitter ,a micro blogging tool where we find many hashtags and keyword on the left panel of the screen,I used to wonder how a particular hashtag starts trending.Slowly and slowly I discover few things which would like to depict out here.

When there is some news ,they might starts trending when people start using the same keyword or hashtag etc .For Instance today is 18th April and Bangalore is bandh today and there is Kolkata muncipal corporation election .so in below picture we can see that in India the trend is as such

The above shows the India trend ,which we can change the trend as we like to city trends or also to the world trend which ever we like.

In India trends we can see #KarnatakaBandh is at no 2 .But when we change the trend to Bangalore,see the result 

The #KarnatakaBandh came to no 1 and there are many hashtag which is trending in bangalore but not in India and vice versa.

Now the question is how these topic starts trending.

we can see #MIvsCSK trending in Bangalore.These trend came when marketing team of Ipl or the sponsor of CSK and MI started using the hashtag for the match and each of the user started interacting and started talking about it.

Again if we see #Vote4BjpBengal is trending in India ,It is sure that these hashtag was not used by any media channel as it is specific to party.So the Bjp party people ,supporters and paid influencer started using the same hashtag to get it trend in India and when  twitterite see the trends in there panel.They even start tweeting on the subject which further result in trending for long till a new trends emerge via news etc.

Nandi Hills -- Awesome Place to see sun rise!!

The sunrise always seems to be amazing,when you see it at the Nandi hills.
During my recent trip to Bangalore,We planned a trip to Nandi hills.We booked am innova for the early morning.Unfortunately ,The cab didn't came and even the driver was not responding to the call.We thought our Plan for Nandi hills will not be executed .But Luck was in our favor.We tried with another cab service in the early morning and the cab came within 20 mins after confirmation and we were as per our plan to Nandi Hills but just 20 mins late.
Nandi hills was around 50 Km from our place and we reached there in 50 mins around.
The atmosphere out there in Nandi Hills was amazing.It was a cool weather out there.the feeling of morning breeze at the top of the hills on our still wet hair cannot be explained in words.
I could see so many bikers,friends,family hanging around in early morning to see the beautiful sun rise.Even I with my family was ready to see the scenic beauty of the Nandi hills.

Friends and family were taking pics of each other to capture the beauty of the place.
My 18 months little neice,Vaanya was smiling though out the trip while seeing small monkeies fighting with each other.

We visited the Nandi temple and did capture many beautiful pics of the scenic place.We stayed there for around 2.30 hrs and then we went back to our place and did bought a kg of grapes when got down from the nandi hills.The grapes were different from the usual grapes we get in the market.It was bigger in size and sweet in taste.Must Say,Nandi hill is one of the beautiful place in the outskirt of bangalore ,where everyone must visit with friends and family


A couple of snaps of the Good times with at Nandi Hills!!

                                       A snap with my sister,neice vaanya and brother in law

With family it's always a Dil ki Deal !!

Being a working professional ,It is some time very difficult to take a long leave and attend a family function.It become more difficult if the family function is happening in out station,some 2000 kms away from the city where I live in.This time it was a convocation for my brother who was passing out from IIM Bangalore,It was a very proud moment for each of us and we all family members wanted to take part in this beautiful ceremony and the proudest moment of my brother's life.

It was becoming very difficult for me to take leave and I know to attend this function in Bangalore I need at least 3 days of holidays ,1 for the dinner party invited to all guest on a Wednesday 25th March 2015 other was convocation on Friday, 27th march 2015.So it was basically at least 3 days of holidays I need to take to attend both and As I have lot of pressure in my work due to year closure etc.It was impossible for me to ask my Manager for this 3 days of holidays.so I kept mum and dropped my plan for this awesome time with my family.

The day passes in office and it was on 25th March I was feeling so confused and helpless about this .My mind was in office in Kolkata but my heart was in Bangalore .I wanted to attend this but now I couldn't and was not able to concentrate on my work.
The day passed and then I started feeling I should have gone.Work will be throughout and I need to balance my self,my professional life and my personnel life ,But it was just 26th March I have missed one function and one the major one where my brother will be certified with the IIM Bangalore Degree certificate was yet to come .I planned to go Bangalore now to attend this major event,.But this time my heart was not letting my mind to do things like it did earlier.
I planned for the trip and booked a flight ticket for Bangalore on 27th March 2015 morning. and believe me I could feel the happiness and joy ,when my brother saw me ,He felt so special and it boosted his confidence and he was in cloud nine at that time.

We all attended the awesome Convocation function and it was indeed a #DilKiDeal.
These are few of the snaps of the happening moment

I was so much motivated by the awesome speech of Dr Devi Shetty ,who was the chief guest for this convocation.

He is indeed a great man with vison for doing things for the masses and specially for the weaker section of the society.

This decision to attend this function was a decision of my heart which made my family happy and our bond with each other became more stronger.!!
