CHKDSK

Looks familiar? My lappy gave me this message today on boot. I was with Dell for sometime and knew this somehow wasn't a very good sign for the health of ones computer. I had although never bothered to sit and read what all it does when it performs a check disk -- but I did today. I let the check disk happen and then sat and read through what it displayed. Weirdly enough, it surprised me because I had never thought about it earlier -- how could I have missed it. Come on - even the computer has its own ways of healing itself before it crashes down on you. It's a sign. Even 'it' was built such that it gives itself a chance. The CHKDSK process will actually check the file systems and status of the system in the hard drive and then lists the errors and corrects them!! Awesome. Now I know what exactly goes into those risk registers and risk responses!

There's always a sign before something finally falls on you. It just does not happen LIKE THAT. And 99% of the times, there is a clairvoyance. We all know. Saying that we generally miss out on them - would be kind of incorrect. We don't want to see the signs, assuming ignorance would be bliss! But what we fail to understand is that this will not prevent what is eventually in store. But can we not prevent it with our actions? It's all about your deeds - ain't it? The delay might give us the extended lifeline -- if we actually work towards it - which we don't, I don't! On second thoughts - what is wrong about it. If I can do my bit to save it? If I know my computer's giving me signs of it not being in the clean bill of health, I know I need to take some actions to ensure no mishaps. Worrying doesn't solve problems.

You got to take the signs,
