growth
Modernization and mass migration’s side effect: we are leaving our culture and tradition behind. Visiting most north Indian villages will show a gloomy picture as most youths are out in the metros leaving behind their ailing parents, wives, and children. The country’s growth has shrunk in the metros where we are all flocking. Is it …
de-clutter
We live in a connected world with infinite notifications, nudges, and pings. It gets overwhelming at times how to de-clutter from this. We, humans, are not built to multi-task or juggle between things. We are doing it and getting sick. Everything around us is becoming difficult because of this de-clutter. If you want soap, choices …
happy
Being happy is a state of self. It has more to do with our intrinsic well-being. The wealthiest ones died of melancholy. Happiness is about celebrating small wins, being grateful to the world, and loving oneself equally. It also comes from being satisfied internally.

story
We are all unique, and so is our story. No two person has similar experience and views about the world. A lot depends on how much we have gone through life, traveled, or read. Humans come in all shapes: happy, angry, or mad. It is not that they are of nature by themselves, but conditioning …
one
We are told and taught about multitasking. How much can it scale? The more I see my friends traveling on multiple, the more I get scared of how they manage their time. We have a finite time in life, and success differs for us all. What matters is being good, happy, and cheerful with our …
outside
Who are we other than our thoughts and consciousness?We observe, act and take actions. Did Mozart, Van Gogh, Gandhi, Michelangelo, or Socrates go for emotional support and advice before what they created? In most cases, they had a lot of self-belief, affirmation, and radical optimism. The more people I meet, the more I feel we …
