But IMO, its not necessary to look deep for "more" inspirations, rather then just to praise one, and then follow it more.

I was watching a program on the greatest inventions ever on Sci-Fi channel. And the author concluded with a quote, that inspired me to the core. Goes something like this,

"One day a women approached Faraday and asked, "Why do you think this thing you call as, "electromagnetism" holds the kind of significance you boast?
Faraday replied, "What significance does the baby which has just been born holds to you? It may seem that a baby is useless. Since they cry, shout and just makes a mess everywhere. But you never know who the baby might become just after a few years later!! For the least you expected, he could be the next Mozart!""

A person named "Koolent" on the IRC. He's a smart kid. Just 13 years old. But knows a lot of stuff that I wasn't even aware of at my time.
He's conscious about his present. He wants to learn something. And he's making an effort for it. Not like me. Wasting time!

You're my inspiration dude. Thanks for talking.

Wat u mean by 'resolutions'?

For me Resolutions is a way to keep a list of stuff that you have to do.

It's gives me an estimate of the amount of work to finish, or the target to achieve. And helps in deciding my short term goals as well.

Don't try to find inspiration in others.Be an inspiration to others, doesn't matter if it's a small deed.

I did one yesterday.
