Excerpt from the Speech given by Chetan Bhagat at Symbiosis.


"Life is one of those races in nursery school where you have to run with a marble in a spoon kept in your mouth.
If the marble falls, there is no point coming first.
Same with life; where health and relationships are the marble. Your striving is only worth it if there is harmony in your life.
Else, you may achieve the success, but this spark, this feeling of being excited and alive, will start to die.

One thing about nurturing the spark - don't take life seriously.
Life is not to be taken seriously, as we are really temporary here. We are like a pre-paid card with limited validity.
If we are lucky, we may last another 50 years.
And 50 years is just 2,500 weekends.
Do we really need to get so worked up? It's ok, bunk a few classes, goof up a few interviews, fall in love.

We are people, not programmed devices.

"Don't be serious, be sincere."

Start Enjoying from this very moment................"




"We never work too much. We never work as much as we can ,we never work to the maximum potential. The more we work, the more we are capable of working. The less we work, the less we become capable of working. Life has its own logic. If we work hard we will get more energy. If we don't work at all and we avoid it even the energy that we have will disappear. Whatsoever we want to do, we should do it, and should do it to the optimum. Soon we will see that more and more doors are opening and more energy becomes available. Always try to reach beyond our grasp. That is how one grows. If we always try that which we can do, we will always fall flat on the earth, we will not be growing . Try the impossible and it becomes possible and we don't try possible even the possible becomes impossible."

If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.
