Time Out: Visit to Srivardhan, Diveagar, Harihareswar

Recently I went out for Konkan darshan with my family at Pune. I loved this weekend trip with my family, nice one. It was planned nicely after exploring a lot on Internet. The first day we traveled through Pune - Mulshi - Taminighat - Mangaon - Masala to Srivardhan where we had booked a resort. We went to resort directly after all our site seeing through the journey to get rid of the travel pain. The drive through Mulshi lake & Taminighat was amazing. The resort where we stayed for a day was also pretty good. In the evening we went to Harihareswar teample & beach. My family enjoyed a lot there, then we came back to resort. The resort was very close to Srivardhan beach, so during evening also we went there to chilled out. The beaches were nice, specially the Srivardhan one. Next day we checked out and went to Divaygar. In between we stopped by the famous Sri Ganesha Temple. Oh I forgot to tell one thing...near to our resort in Srivardhan there were small temples and Ashrams. It was a special experience of visiting such places on our leisure time. After Divyagar we drove back to city though we stopped at the Mulshi Dam for few minutes. Overall it was an excellent trip.

Got a different role to play...

I am now out of my current team and moved to a different one to play a different role in a different hierarchy which is different for me and I aspired for same. Wow this is something good for me. A complete new team, a complete new domain, no technology (though I hate it, but I won't leave it), no team, more of managerial work. Dealing with large stakeholders and only SLAs. Nice experience and I think it's good for me to go with this to certain extend before exploring something else in this line.

Two programs I watched on TV without missing...

I love to watch 2 programs on TV one is Dance India Dance & another is Satyamev Jayate. One that brings amazing talents to us and another who spread awareness about social issues but also brings some excellent people, I would say sons of GOD. I salute the people who brings such programs to us. I can feel the change coming to our society and also in our life.

Back with a challenge

Wow refreshing...it's been long time I have not been active in blogging. Today, I am back as something inspired me today to get me back to this blog site. Today we had an article writing competition where I contributed a little & then I thought about to write same on my blog. The article was all about the last difference I have made in my organization. I did not take much time to write as i have many things to write, but restricted to 800 words as per instruction. I mentioned about my goal which I got while joining current team & how successfully I capitalized the same. I added more to it by adding what I have done till now during my tenure of leading the team. Wow ...yes tenure... which is gradually coming to end probably as I am planning to move on to new role assignment. I am not prepared well but I want to jump into as I remember the conversation I had long back with my mentor. If I don't take risk then how will I do something different. Yes I want to do something different, want to come out of my comfort zone & do something which I believe I can do much better way. It will be learning for me & that will give me confidence to move faster & do something more. Not only for me but mostly for my team members and last not for the least the organization. Anyway ..let's wait & watch how I am going to get that opportunity where I can do something different, learn something new & do something for all. Please please wish me best of luck.
