Hi all,

Well this is my first so called blog. Having never written any such thing b4, i am writing this one. They say the first impression is the best impression. I ask is it always so? Is there any rule which states this? Well for one thing I can think of many things whose importance or value is not so obvious at the start. But as time moves on you get the important and usefulness of this.

For example when you are born you are born you have a tongue which is useful only for tasting and swallowing food. But as time progresses this same tongue helps in speaking. The importance of the tongue is not so obvious in the beginning for anyone but then again is it not that important? Agreed that for a small child he may not begin to think of anything at such a young age. But it is for the sake of the argument that i am stating this.

Myself being a great football fan and in particular a fan of Manchester United Football Club, I can think of many instances in football where when you play for the first time you put in one of your worst performances and still go on to be great in the game. The reverse is also true. Sometimes you can have an explosive start to your career only to be lost in oblivion.

All this first if spoiled, rest will follow idea is stupid and needs to be reconsidered. Just think of all the ppl who are losing opportunities in all phases of life due to this stupid notion that First Impression is the best Impression.
All this needs to be rectified. It might help both the parties involved for a way ahead in life.
