Rituals

I was reading Daily Rituals: How Great Minds Make Time, Find Inspiration, and Get to Work. The common pattern and learning were: People left their brains on autopilot.  Some went for long walks. Some started day with a cup of coffee, tea or music.  Some had lots of cigars  Others like Jung built their own …

why

Why do we have to find a reason behind everything? Why can’t we let things rest as it is? The constant questioning is not worthy. Why do we have to postmortem everything happening to our life: good/bad? Leaving past behind and focusing on now does better. Why did this happen to me? Why are they …

commitment

People switch jobs like taxi ride finishing a trip. There is no sense of commitment. People are willing to let go of their year-long hard-earned respect and trust. Finding people who will abide by their ethics is like searching for wise men in daylight like Diogenes. Any kind of perk, freedom or trust is valued …

People

People will always tell you what you cannot do, your inefficiency. It is easy to blame, criticize and form an opinion on others. Our existence and our purpose should matter most to us. People have their motives and bias in blaming you. We have to grow a thick skin and have an amplified bullshit meter. …

different

I have been part of this startup ecosystem for some time now in different personas: investor, employee, and founder. I am starting to see a new trend where many people have started schools to churn a startup. The journey of starting a startup is different than getting an educational degree. I wonder why are we …

Positive Ego

There is a thing called positive Ego. It consists of self-belief, faith, and perseverance. Always keep it. It will take you ahead of dead mortals, naysayers and slaves. We have to stay away from the noise and signals. What matters most to us is our consciousness. Since early adulthood, we have been told what we …

Lie

I know in this fast-paced world where negotiation trumps over ethics. People lie, there can be numerous reasons. One being fear and another being judgment. I have bought this belief that people do everything because of the current frame of their minds. Although I feel bewildered knowing the fact that people give up on their …

Not sure if it is my age or past few years of experience. I have realized drive is an important piece that defines our pathway to success. The definition of success differs from us all.

blame

It is easy to blame others. It is easy to remind what we are missing from our life. It is easy to crib about everything. I take over us. They get blamed for my failures.
