I love traveling and seeing new places. But I have come to realize that when it comes to travel, there is always some other place I have to be at the same time.
This week, kicks off another travel and events bonanza !! First I head out to IISc Bangalore today evening for the Hack U kick off there. I am going to talk about how “Every resource on the web is a data source”. I get back late night, and have a early morning flight to Hyderabad, to start off the University Hack day at IIIT H . Its going to be 3 days of innovation, talks, discussions, ideas, creativity and coding fun. I get back on 24th and will have to decide between going to Mysore for a event and going to Chennai to attend 2 weddings. The coming weekend, I head out to Nandi Hills for a company off-site aimed at making better leaders out of the members of the group :-) Immediately after getting back, I need to be in Mysore to play the first match of the 1st division league cricket match. The weekend after that, I need to choose between going to another company off-site or to another friends wedding in Calicut. The 2nd week of Feb, I head off to Delhi to speak at the Techshare India 2010 Barrier break conference. During the same time, I need to decide whether to head off for a day to Ludhiana to attend another good friends wedding!
There are a couple of training sessions in office which I need to juggle in between all of this, ton of deliverables for the project I am working on, a couple of design proposals to make and couple of dinners to go out with my wife :-)

This is not the first time this is happening, last time I traveled to USA on business, I was forced to decide between attending a conference there and attending a close friends wedding back home. When I was in Jordan on business, I almost missed my dads 60th Birthday celebrations, managed to land up in Mysore a day before the event.
May be its just coincidence or may be its just that I notice these things more when there are many things to do and places to be.
Guess all this will just help me improve my time management and delegation skills. Experience ++
Wish me luck
