Sometimes we go for the big dreams in life, but what we leave behind are the little things that gave us the little joys. We hardly have control - can't keep them all.

Also, probably the amount you've lost defines the magintude of the success you need to balance it out.

Quoting Superfreakonomics

Deliberate practise has three key components: setting specific goals; obtaining immediate feedback; and concentrating as much on technique as on outcome.

Awargi

Humlog to ukta gaye, apni sunao awargi

From the Merchant of Venice

In sooth, I know not why I am so sad:
It wearies me; you say it wearies you;
But how I caught it, found it, or came by it,
What stuff ’tis made of, whereof it is born,
I am to learn;
And such a want-wit sadness makes of me,
That I have much ado to know myself.

Nook

I seem to be having a good feeling for the Nook, better than the other e-readers. Kindle did not make me want it. Nook sort of does. Love technology. Imagine where it's taking us :)
