I find it sad and disheartening to see founders of modern-day startups bragging about themselves and their brands non-stop on social media. Your teams and customers pain-build companies, nothing else. That is where founders should spend time on. This unnecessary glory or stardom is short-lived. We are seeing the fall of companies in this current …

misfit
One of the many pleasures a misfit gets is dying peacefully without blaming others. They have nothing to complain about.As a misfit, they go miles to cure their itch. We are living in a world where society dictates our life decisions.Our society guides us into talking, eating, relationships, marriage, and work. It is like a …
perfect
We are not perfect. We all have flaws within. The sooner we accept it, the better becomes our path to improvement. Some egoist people don’t accept criticism or try to learn from their mistakes. They want complete respect and surrender. You don’t have to be like them. Our life has limited moments in it. You …
feedback
If you want to see your loved one doing better, be honest with your feedback. Nobody likes to mention others’ flaws for multiple reasons. The fear of making them angry or losing them could be the reason. We are slaves to our thoughts and actions. We are not perfect. At the same time, we feel …
assurance
Our life is not a straight line. It is a mixed journey with curves and shapes. We have to sail through it. Some of us in our life get lucky. We find helping hands as partners, friends, or parents who are there for you. We are falling for individualism. We are on our own. Having …

run
We are on the run.The infinite chase of wants. The more we do, our goal post increases. Also, as we age, we realize all we did was endlessly run instead of living. Our society embeds its guiding principle in us, fuelled with the saliva of capitalism, where everything comes down to wealth. Our existence becomes …
FOMO
In a digital age, we tend to fall into FOMO. Who will not crave for European vacation seeing friends’ Instagram posts? As a founder, the game goes to the next level. Your success becomes the VC money you raise, media mentions, or coming to the Forbes list. We are all animals. We suffer from jealousy …
freedom
What is the definition of freedom to you? Is it about unlimited wealth, company of friends, or enough free time? As we grow old, we realize how time flies and death approaches. These times we realize how much time we spent chasing things that never mattered to us. We get weak, our skin wears off, …
Surround
We have a limited and finite amount of time left. We need to make the best of our living. One big part is our company: the people we surround ourselves with. Our mind works in mysterious ways. The flight and fight mode is constant. These scenarios and situations our company comes to guide us.
