I am just one man...

When one grows up to be a responsible person, get married, have kids, he gets even more responsibilities than he would have normally had with just being a son and a brother. He suddenly becomes a husband and then a father. Different people have different ways of approaching these new responsibilities. It takes a while to adjust to these new changes and sometimes it takes too long. One requires patience from the dependents for him to be able to take that load.

His partner, the wife, plays the biggest role of them all. Considering that she is the newest in his life out of his parents and siblings, that is a huge responsibility on her. One has to appreciate the role of the woman in any man's life. Be it the wife or the mother. After all there is one behind every successful man.

The fact of the matter is that all people around this single person play an essential role in helping the person to be able to meet expectations and attend to responsibilities to his best potential.

Responsibilities can be of all sorts. Financial, emotional, professional, etc. The only way to adjust and get the job done correctly is to think about it. Plan it out. If this is not done and assumed that things will just fall in place, then it usually will result in a failure. With so many things happening around him, every man in his own life is playing the role of a CEO/MD. The Chief Executive Officer or Managing Director of his life. He has to have a vision. He has to learn to manage with the available resources and still be able to get the job done. Get the targets met.

There will be limitations. There will be ups and downs. But the man is the captain of the ship. He has to stand guard against all thunderstorms. Against change of weather, against ad-hoc changes to plans. He has to be ready for everything. He cannot cry, he cannot let himself feel let down. He has to keep standing.  Keep the flag high. Whether he feels strong or not is a different question. He has to look strong. As on his attitude are dependent his crew. The people behind him. The people counting on him.

There is pressure. There is a recurring question of survival of the fittest. There is pressure to perform. There are results expected. There are dependents on each action taken.

This is just one man...I am just one man....and that is what I will ever be...just one man...

Torres - Brings Spain Much Awaited Glory

Euro 2008 ended with a quiet finale yesterday with Spain beating the Germans 1-0. The two best teams of Europe met in a jam-packed stadium on a lovely evening filled with happiness and an air of friendliness.

Both teams took a while to get going and
