doubt

We push ourselves to the unexpected. We are trying to solve the unsolvable mysteries of the universe, science, and technology. Is there any room for doubt? Why do we doubt ourselves? Is it because we are less confident, is it because we are scared to fail? Is doubt even an option for researchers, builders, scientists, …

moderation

We are living in a world where moderation is a thing of the past. A runner wants to compete in ironman, an e-commerce site offers one plus two discounts, and Friday brewery trail comes with happy hours. Netflix has binge-watching over ice cream, alcohol, caffeinated drink, and lots of carbs. Overdoing has become a matter …

focus

Is multitasking the need of the hour? Can’t we focus on one thing and give our best in it? Is multitasking a byproduct of modernization and the connected world we are? We are running so fast that we are getting injured more often. The precision with which work was done earlier is getting scarce. Deep …

vulnerability

We are all vulnerable one or the other way. I blame it on our monkey mind. We are building our castles, switching to the next thing with the hope of being satisfied. The race to succeed, feel good, or garner appreciation from the loved ones or colleagues at work. We are in a constant fight …

founders

Silicon Valley, tech crunch, and abundance of money have glorified founding a company. In the early ’90s, people built a company because they had the option to pursue their dreams. It was more about innovation. Most of them worked for many years out of their garage. The capital was limited. Fast forward to 2020, media …

change

Change has a switching cost. It results in cognitive overload. As a result, we miss out on newer innovation or trying a new process. I have been thinking more off-late on what all I have missed and the associated opportunity cost for the same. Be is running my company or overall trying newer things in …

risk-averse

Are we making our kids more risk-averse? Are western parents doing right by letting their kids explore the world by themselves? I have seen only one side with it being an Indian. I am lucky that the ways that most decisions in the last 15 years have been my own and the risk/rewards. My father …

decide

What would you do if you develop some infection on your arm? Will you cut it off? What will you do if someone close to you walks out of your life-giving all wrong reasons? Will you become bitter with them? These decisions should be taken by ourselves. We are called adults for a reason. We …

fragile

As a leader, it is necessary to understand the other side and team. Everyone looks at the leader, tries to match or clone their virtues as well as vice. We are living in a fragile world, and we are all broken one or the other way. The complexity of personal life, finance, society pressure is …

Religion

Religion came into existence so that it could bring society together. It was for the oneness. As we progressed, a few men gave different colors to it for their benefit. It kept them in power and garner followers to establish their dictatorship. Some of them ended up erasing our past and infused radical ideology. An …
