This quote first caught my eye when I was a young engineer, and it has stayed with me ever since. At the time, I was working on a project that was very challenging, and I was feeling overwhelmed. I was tempted to avoid the project altogether, but I knew that I couldn't. I had a commitment to my team and my company, and I knew that I had to see the project through to completion.
So, I pushed through my fear and self-doubt, and I started working on the project. It was hard work, but it was also incredibly rewarding. I learned new things, I solved complex problems, and I grew as an engineer. Ultimately, the project was a success, and I was proud of my accomplishments.
This experience taught me a valuable lesson: the magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding. The things that we are most afraid of doing are often the things that hold the most tremendous potential for growth and transformation. When we avoid complex tasks or challenges, we are essentially blocking ourselves from achieving our goals and reaching our full potential.
In the world of technology, this is especially true. Technology is constantly evolving, and the only way to stay ahead of the curve is to be willing to learn new things and take on new challenges. If we avoid work that is difficult or unfamiliar, we will quickly be left behind.
I have seen this firsthand in my own career. I have had the opportunity to work on a wide range of projects, from developing new software products to building and managing complex infrastructure systems. Some of these projects were very challenging, but they were also the most rewarding. I have learned the most from the work I have been most afraid of doing.
- I am more willing to take on new challenges. I used to be afraid to take on new challenges because I was worried about failing. But now I know that the only way to learn and grow is to step outside of my comfort zone.
- I am more persistent. I used to give up easily when I faced challenges. But now I know that the only way to succeed is to persevere.
- I am more open to feedback. I used to be afraid of criticism. But now I know that feedback is essential for growth.
- I am more collaborative. I used to be very independent. But now I know that the best way to achieve great things is to collaborate with others.
These changes in my perception have helped me to become a better technologist. I am more creative, more innovative, and more productive. I am also more satisfied with my work because I know that I am constantly learning and growing.
- Create a culture of learning and experimentation. Encourage your team members to try new things, even if they fail. Let them know that it's okay to make mistakes as long as they learn from them.
- Provide opportunities for growth and development. Allow your team members to work on challenging projects and learn new skills. Encourage them to attend conferences and workshops and to read books and articles about the latest technologies.
- Celebrate successes. When your team members achieve their goals, be sure to celebrate their successes. This will help them to stay motivated and engaged.
- Provide feedback. Give your team members regular feedback on their performance. Be sure to focus on both their strengths and their areas for improvement.
- Create a supportive environment. Create a work environment where your team members feel comfortable asking for help and sharing their ideas.
The quote, "the magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding" is a powerful reminder that the path to growth and transformation is often through the things we fear the most. As technologists, we have a responsibility to ourselves and our profession to learn and grow constantly. This means embracing challenges, stepping outside of our comfort zones, and being willing to fail.

In May of this year, Martin Scorsese's The Film Foundation launched its virtual theater, Restoration Screening Room, with a beautiful digital version of I Know Where I'm Going! (1945) by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, which was followed the next month by Federico Fellini's La Strada (1954). Showing next after these mid-century classics of Western cinema is Kummatty (The Bogeyman, 1979) by Aravindan Govindan, a selection in keeping with the foundation's World Cinema Project, which endeavors to preserve and restore neglected films from around the world. Nevertheless, the selection is an unusual choice, as the Indian filmmaker, an avant-garde artist at the vanguard of the Parallel Cinema movement in his native state, is relatively unknown outside of Kerala, let alone the country. Tadao Sato, one of Japan's foremost film scholars and critics, saw Kummatty for the first time in 1982 and stated that he had not seen a more beautiful film.
Kummatty, Aravindan's fourth feature, is inspired by ancient folklore of Kerala's northern Malabar region and follows the eponymous vagabond (Ambalappuzha Ravunni, a folk artist) who roams around like the Pied Piper, captivating children with his songs, dance, and magic tricks. He materializes from nature in a village and, with the change in season, disappears into the wilderness, only to return after a year. This dualistic existence of the protagonist can be attributed to Aravindan's fascination with the Samkhya philosophy of Hinduism, which explores the interplay between Purusha (consciousness) and Prakriti (nature). The inseparability of man from nature also forms a pivotal notion in his second feature, Kanchana Sita (Golden Sita, 1977), and later in Esthappan, which also traverses the same realm of magic realism as Kummatty.
One other commonality connecting the three films is the moral indefinability of the principal characters. Their personas are subjected to differing judgments by the various characters perceiving them. In Kummatty, the protagonist is an affable magician for the children of the village, whereas the adults look at him with suspicion and consider him a worthless nomad. The identity of the eponymous oracle in Esthappan also remains in flux, as his legend is constructed by the varied interpretations of the village folk. Kummatty reaches a turning point when the bogeyman performs one last magic trick on a bunch of children before leaving the village. He transforms every child into a different animal and then turns them back into their human form, but a boy, Chindan (Ashok Unnikrishnan), who is converted into a dog, escapes. Chindan has to wait one whole year for Kummatty to return and restore his human form.
With the exit of the mythical magician, the playful and carefree aura of the film gives way to a fable-like passage evoking the fragmentary nature of happiness and the ephemeral nature of relationships. The disheartened parents of Chindan offer prayers to God and turn to holy rituals, but in vain. Meanwhile, the old lady of the village passes away. Finally, after a year, Kummatty returns and restores Chindan to his human form, to the delight of everyone in the village. Chindan, who, as a dog, had come to realize the suffocating feeling of being trapped, releases the parrot caged at his home into the sky. With the closing shot of birds flying in the pristine blue sky, Aravindan mounts his philosophy of freedom and liberation. The arrival and departure of Kummatty with the changing seasons, shots of the rising and setting sun (a prominent motif in Aravindan's oeuvre), and the harvesting of crops are all attestations to the auteur embracing the transience of life and existence.
Aravindan filmed Kummatty in a quaint north Keralan village, capturing its wide-open landscape, clear skies, and a stray pond amid verdant fields. Cinematographer Shaji N. Karun delicately captures the soft lighting to lend the film an ethereal coating that enhances its mystical charm. Karun, who has shot most of Aravindan's films, is the primary architect of his revered visual language imbued with golden-hour shots, sun-dappled frames, intimate close-ups, and painterly lensing of nature's magnificence. He also served as the long-distance consultant on the film's restoration project. To get as close to the original colors as possible, the restoration team showed Karun recent photographs of the movie's location shot by Ramu Aravindan. Karun then guided the colorists on the appropriate color tones for various frames.
