About me

I am a Mechanical Design Engineer by profession and an avid writer and reader. I am a self-employed Machine Design professional, operating from my residence and I am fortunate enough to spare time to pursue my love for writing. I am middle aged, having a loving family. I am a spiritually inclined person, God loving and peace loving. I am quite humorous and love to make fun of the idiosyncrasies in the world and in myself too!

I am (rather was) a short-story writer too. More than a dozen of my short stories had been published in my mother tongue Tamil in very popular Tamil Weeklies and monthlies a decade ago and earlier.

A couple of my English writings related to Office-work/ management got published in "Business India" magazine decades ago.

I stumbled upon blogging and web-content writing 2 years ago; the scope of getting my writes instantly published enthused me to revive writing in full swing.

I am a regular contributor of "How to" articles at Howtodothings.com. I also write in Suite101, Associatedcontent, Hubpages and Brighthub. (See My links at the right side)

My major line of interest is Hinduism, its philosophies and its masters. Naturally, my writes hover around the subject a lot. The following Helium Zone contains some of my important articles on Hinduism. (See my links at the right).

I also write about my observations on the society and its funny contradictions. I love writing short stories with twists, interesting personal anecdotes, personal health and on family well being. Sarcasm and cynicism run in my blood and they frequently flow through my key-board and seep into Helium discussion boards!

I am completing 2 years of writing at Helium. Helium has given me good earning opportunities ( through Upfront Payments); Helium community is wonderful and I enjoy frequently peeping into Helium Community Discussion Boards and making some comments, criticisms, teasing and taunts and also constructive suggestions.

Helium staff members and channel stewards are very eager to extend helping hand always. My thanks to them.

If there is one quality that distinguishes a good manager from a poor one, it is decisiveness. A person in managerial position who is poor in decision making is fit to be called only an administrator and not a manager.The decision making process normally involves the following stages:1) Defining the problem /issues / situations / challenges which calls for a decision making2) Collecting relevant facts, figures and statistics to facilitate and support decision making process3) Identifying the various alternatives of choice4) seeking opinions and alternative view points from "people who know"...
