Day29- SMART WORK

Today I heard many times the word smart work or may be this is what I am doing. Different people gave different generalized definitions for smart work. Few years back one of my colleague told that "Before you start working on anything, rise your hand and ask if any one has done that work, most of the things you are supposed to do may be already implemented by others, so don't waste your time and energy for something which is already implemented."...another friend told that "smart work is perfect planning, execution, smart work needs hard work as well ......" .In a telugu movie BOYS ,one beggar owns a full book of information of where about of free food and clothes for the full year. In my view that beggar is the best smart worker. One of my colleague recently told me that "Anil I heard that you are a smart worker", then immediately I asked her to define smart work, she replied that "Who complete his work with less supervision from others and less than expected time".....Me being a copy cat from all the places I don't deserve good comments. Everything I do taught by others or copied from internet or begged from colleagues or copied from documentation or copied by observing others etc.......everything is copy, I just copied and placed everything in my brain...may be any hard disk can store that much information........ when ever some challenge comes, I am retrieving the information I copied and executing successfully according to situation, this is not just related to work but dealing with people as well. If I am unable to execute successfully or unable to deal with people then its my failure because I failed to execute which I copied, if I do in a better way then its all because of the knowledge I copied from all different places.

I have several definitions for smart work, The best of my definitions is reading opposite person mind. Smart work is between you and the opposite person or set of people with whom you are dealing with. Every person is different in this world , so is smart work. Owning a barber shop next to lord venakteswara temple is meaningless, you have to read the set of people who visit tirupati. Each and every second in life needs smart work. Smart work is positive behaviour which help to excel in life.
Few smart works according to me are placing myself in most challenging environment so that I have to use my brain more frequently, keeping myself away from the people who pretend to be intelligent , never ever take credit for others work and never hesitate to praise good work even if it is done by your enemy, share everything I know so that I have to learn again to share next time, analysing myself so that my tomorrow will be better than today, lead simple life so that no recession will effect in any way, time and expectations management gives lot of flexibility in life, inspire and get inspiration from surrounding people,.......so on...

One of the smart work I feel like sharing now
I was attending my first campus interview, cleared written test and about to attend interview. Me and my classmate Deepthi Sharma from Delhi were the two out of my class who cleared written test, so we both were waiting for interview. She is beautiful, intelligent and having excellent communication skills. I was pretty sure that she will get job. I already challenged to my classmates longback that I will be the first person who will get the job. I told to the same to Deepthi also before the interview. In campus interviews most of the questions are related to attitude and aptitude. Two person were interviewing me, few strategies or smart works I followed are any of my answer should not lead to second question, I should observe the interviewer and answer according to their interests. Two persons came to the interview room, one person came and cleaned his chair,table etc.. another person carrying a C++ book in his hand. So I decided to answer such that cleaning and c++ should emphasize and I should not get caught in this process. When they ask me about my hobbies, I told them that keeping my house, class bench and surroundings clean and neat was one of my hobby , where ever I get chance I stressed my cleaning habits hobby.
During technical interview they gave me an option to choose my favourite technical subject, I told them that " I was very much interested in C++, though I don't have any C++ practicals I learned it on my own" I told this to keep less expectation.Its not syaing something, you have to guess and be ready the consequences also. My village back ground also helped me a lot. Countless smart works in that 2 hours interview . My interview was over, they gave me pencil to write some code while I was attending the interview, I came out without giving that pencil back. I thought that they won't excuse me as they may think that I don't know right attitude, so I ran back and returned the pencil, while returning pencil one among the two told me " this pencil won't stop in selecting you"…….....result of my 18 years struggle for good living .........The girl who was with me also got the job. Yesterday I received a mail from Mrs Sharma, revisited old memories.
