The expression 'prep' is heard often by me when in the exalted presence of the younger generation actors and actresses of our Film World ..

It has reference to 'preparation' for the role they are about to play in a film, and the kind of reverence they show towards it , leaves me with immense admiration ..

In my time I never did come across such conversation or modes of operatives for a film about to be done ..

BUT

what an excellent example of dedication and interest in the project about to be loaded on celluloid ..

"Preparation is the cornerstone of success in any professional endeavor. It equips individuals with clarity, confidence, and competence to handle responsibilities efficiently. Without preparation, even the most talented individuals risk failure due to oversight or uncertainty. It allows for understanding the scope of work, anticipating challenges, and developing strategic approaches. Preparedness reflects discipline, professionalism, and respect for the task at hand. It minimizes errors, enhances communication, and boosts productivity. Whether it's a presentation, negotiation, or project execution, adequate preparation ensures better outcomes and builds credibility. In the professional world, being well-prepared is not optional—it is essential for growth and excellence."

SO ..

Not to be left out of this wonderful and admirable habit and exercise , I had an opportunity to have a word with the KBC crew, and wondered if I could do similar ..

And the generosity with which it was permitted and organised has been a moment of great learning .. parrot and all ..

'prep' then is the act .. and the takeaway is 'learning' ..

Each day is a learning in our lives .. limited time .. but a gift of learning all the same , in all quarters ..

May there be several divine examples of such .. which must be present there in abundance .. and if we can capture and imbibe a few , life would have reached a certain modicum of a satisfied soul !!

Affection , love .. and abundant learning
