ARS (Automated Response System)

Warning: This is not a technical blog about any of my project, so please discontinue if you are thinking something like that. 

Automated Response System (ARS) is very common word that we come across when we watch Hollywood movies and read some Sci-fi stuff, but today I am talking about our personal automated response system that, most of us don't realize that it exists somewhere in our body (brain to be precise). The most common example of ARS is our reflexes which automatically reacts to some of the activities around, another example is out sixth sense (yes! I believe in it). But, I am not going to talk about any of these systems too, today I am talking about some of the systems in our body that we rarely notice which is little funny and equally interesting too. 

Today I was working on solving one of the project problem to help one of my student since early morning, and, suddenly I realized that after few hours of head banging I am feeling very very hungry. As, the work is in deadlock, so I decided to take some time off and start writing blog... now what is the connection between my hunger, blog and project?? Simple, its my ARS when I am very busy or mentally tired I do this. I started to think about my school and college days, I never looked panic during my exams, there is always a chilling attitude about exams from my side, whereas many of my friends were totally panicked and rushing around. Then I noticed that it was my ARS which made me do something different then being panic. I remember that I used to eat a lot those days, and gain a hell lot of weight during my exams (combine effect if eating and sitting), and now this system has also acquired another member in the family which is my blog. Whenever I am supposed to be super busy, panicked, or tired I do one of these activities.

Its kind of discovery in self, I don't know how many of you realize that you have this system, but I am very sure that you must be having something which is funny at the same time very interesting. I remember one of very close friend of mine who used to shout 'Aao... Aao' before all viva exams, saying that he gains confidence after that... I am sure its his ARS, another one I have seen doing moonwalk right before the exams (its true!!!), and I also used to watch a lot of movies before my exams... all these are ARS!

Believe me, for some these are just silly activities but for some its just like performance enhancer, rather then being panicked their subconscious mind make them do some other activities that I mentioned, to make them roll again.

I think, my ARS has served the purpose for me... time to get back to work again! :)
