Unplanned activity really messes up the mind!

Yesterday was perfect example for me, how a day will start and end, if I don't plan my activities...
Everyday is an experience which teaches me either how days should be or how things not to be!! Learning never ends for a day!
Yesterday taught me how most of the instances would pass and how a situation will unnecessarily hinder my regular work (what you thought or how your time like to be)


Supplier visit was planned at Bangalore. Ticket was booked by my HR.


Learning #1:
Usually: I take print out of tickets well in advanceThis time: I took print out last minuteLearning: Never wait to take the printout 
Learning #2:
Usually: I arrange my packing. Since this was only one day trip, nothing much was taken except for additional sweater in my laptop bag along with Lapps.
This time: I regularly carry 1/2 foot steel ruler in my bag. This will be used for any immediate linear measurement.Learning: Being a steel ruler, security check in at airport asked me completely take off all the stuffs in the bag and checked again. Need to re-arrange everything. Not to take steel ruler when travelling in flight (Though, finally, it was given to me).
Learning #3:
Usually: I arrange for my return travel to airport as well.This time: I was concentrating on supplier visit and missed arranging for return travel to airport (This cannot be an excuse).Learning: Not to repeat this again.
Apart from 3 learning's, there are much more learning's...


Thanks to cab driver, who has driven 80Km in 1.5 hours in congested Bangalore traffic. Without him, I would have not caught the flight.
Somehow, last night, Bangalore airport was bit free and could able to complete check-in faster.


Planning makes a man's life easy!!! 
I would never redo the same mistakes as there are so many mistakes to do (on the lighter note)!!
