Talking to Miss. Universe! (POEM)

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science


POEM

You are living in this world, so you’re a part of this Universe.

Your existence is unbridled and unavoidable.

Listen to the sounds of nature; it calls for something all time.

I cannot hear that voice, am I deaf?

Universe is the name of peace, have you experienced?

I’m in a part of world, full of distortions, injustice waves on top.

This is not my creation; I’m Ms. Universe, infallible and unfathomable.

Your inside certainly needs some guidance though!

Is that the case, let them fix it by themselves, I’m busy.

People are not sane to understand your plight, Ms.

They are and they will.

How?

They have to figure this out; God bestowed upon them the intellect.

I’m a human but I can’t think of a better solution to this mess.

You’re human; little is your known conscious.

Then how am I going to fix the inside of yours?

Let it be; you better focus inside yours!

Why so?

Change you want to see comes always from inside.

What can I do to reform my inside?

Listen to the sounds of nature, it has messages in it.

I’m busy solving the riddles of this messy life.

You are sure busy, but not as much as you pretend it to be.

Oh. Ms. Universe, do you talk to God?

Yes, I do all the time.

Ask him to help humans; they’re ignorant of their existence!

God has already given me the answer to your question.

What was the answer, please?

Humans have to figure out the solution.

Is God helpless?

No, he’s the most generous and helpful.

Then, why he doesn’t want to intervene?

God is here to help you only when you ask him for it.

I’m asking for his help.

What about your fellow billions?

I don’t know about them.

Listen, I’m tired of your questions.

I’m just looking for a better life.

Then go help others.

Why?

Many are lost in their journey to the hereafter.

Am I rightly in the correct direction?

It’s you who has to figure this out.

Oh. Universe, I’m lazy, I don’t have time for all this.

Then go sleep have daydreams.

Is it anger?

No, it’s the real you, living at the time.

How come, I’m talking to you?

You’re only here to find ease, not the solution of problems.

I think I better go back and watch YouTube.

You better deserve that.

Was that again a taunt?

I’m Universe, I don’t trade these things.

Alright, I will come back to you again.

Hoping not to see you again, Bye…

Steal like an artist by Austin Kleon

  Book Cover (Source: Tapan Desai) Summary (informal) Everyone wants to become something in his life.  There’s no single formula to achieve one’s desired destination.  In this rapidly changing information climate, everything has become more competitive and less rewarding for those who do not pay more attention to details.  It is healthy to settle one’s mind to steal ideas productively from those who have experimented with them successfully.  There’s no harm in stealing ideas as there’s nothing as new to the world today given the scale of information exchange around the globe due to the Internet.  Since everything is already available on Google, one must go there and copy from authentic sources.  Make changes in it and sell it to the world. While you are working on the project, keep an eye on wrongs that might discredit the efforts.  Copying from a single person is plagiarism, but doing the same thing from more than one is research.  A good artist always credits his work to those from w

Why reading books is important?

There can be various aspects to this question. However, I will stick to a few points to convey to your mind why reading is an important exercise. Human is social being and to understand the world we need to learn new information constantly.  The learning must be slow and fast. No one can learn all the information available out there at once. For Humans to learn and that too authentic, a companion/teacher is required. Books can be trustworthy teachers in our lives. As we know, the human brain is a unique engineering tool. We can see things and make a judgment about them. We can hear the voice and make a particular opinion about it. We can walk on the ground and make an analogy of how it’s different from other parts of the world. We continuously improvise our ideas as we get updated information passing through our heads. This trait is unique and makes us better than Chimpanzee. Our minds require a continuous flow of information, and this information can be about anything, even the color

7 lessons I learned from the Al Chemist

Lesson #1:- Humans are tested with calamities and challenges to build a stronger intellectual ground where they can protect their lives and become able to create a better world for future generations.  Those who risked their lives and followed their dreams, they have got the victory. And those who did not risk, and played it safe,  merely stopped where they needed to start. Lesson #2:- Santiago in the search of his legend (true inner self) encountered challenges and a few close calls to death. In the search for treasure, he fearlessly bids on his life by selling his sheep to an old King joins a crystal shop in an unknown part of Africa, and finally embarks on the longest journey towards the Pyramids of Egypt.  His passion to find the unknown treasure based on his audacious belief in omens led him to overpower all the negative forces that could have stopped him from achieving his legend. Quote “If you believe in yourself worthy of the thing you fought so hard to get, then you become
