What happens when you leave a restless mind without a laptop to use, without internet to surf, without books and newspaper to read?
Surrounded by people who talk on topics as varied as from sex to spirtuality, college politics to women reservation bill, one realizes the power of thoughts.
How far can your thoughts take you to?
Usually my thoughts take me to the future. And it unfolds everything. I wonder how human being would have progressed in life without the power of imagination.
I got up late in the morning.
11:00 AM-
After having late breakfast me and my friends started to talk about a new business idea “sweets on phone call” where a person will get sweets at his home just by giving a phone call. The brainstorming took almost 2-3 hours and ended with a conclusion
“Surely it can be implemented. No flaws. When are we starting it? “
We went for lunch.
3:00 PM-
We realized that home delivery of Indian sweets has a one major flaw that it will take lots of time to set up the back end operation. And we don’t have that much time. Then what are we doing next?
How about the tried and tested T-Shirt business for college students?
As the people sitting in the room were the people who had a little experience in this field, the arguments went for 2 hours and so. The final conclusion:
“We can easily start it in the month of June-July”
5:30 PM - Time for Snacks
After taking the evening teas we went for a walk and discussed that how can we recover our money that we invested in one crazy idea of making a film? The total investment in the film was about Rs 3 lakh. We had to find a solution that would recover the cost.
How about a “Student film Festival”? I said. Yes, this way we can sell the movie as the movie itself is not a great product to sell easily. We decided that the film festival can be executed in a period of 2 months.
So when we will be starting. Don’t know.
8:00 PM- Time for Dinner.
But before taking the dinner, I generally freshen up. I went to wash room. Sitting idle in a small room makes your mind so creative. And as far as I am concerned most of my ideas have been generated in that special room which everybody calls “toilet”.
BINGO!!!!!!!!
A new idea starts knocking in the head. How a bout a hitchhiking journey to Rajasthan.
NO hotels. NO Restaurants. NO Public transport. Just walk into the desert. Branding of Bol jaipur Bol and promotion of “Athithi devo bhave” culture, Coverage of the journey on city bhaskar for a period of one week, every thing started to fall in mind.
I lived every moment even before it actually happened. I lived every moment when I imagined about t shirts, student film festival or sweet dishes. That’s the way a human mind works…juggling with some thousands ideas…and finally working upon some..Imagining every fine detail of the idea even before it gets executed.
That’s the beauty of human mind.
