What keeps us moving? What makes our life unique? What keeps us moving against all the odds, failures? The more and more I read about the life of successful people or those who left their mark on society. It makes me realize they had a purpose: Martin Luther King to Mahatma Gandhi to Nelson Mandela …

reunions
Reunions result in bringing memories of the past. Be it with school friends or colleagues. There has never been a dull moment. Sometimes it makes me wonder about our innocence at others about our foolishness, bravery. Reunions are bittersweet. The conversation about your crushes, their present life. The sports teacher and being caned bunking morning …
utopia
Most of us living in the metro are part of a bubble. We are part of a parallel universe. It is like living in a utopia: capitalism, consumerism, and modernity is the virtue and elements like cars, housing society, mobile fostering the identity. I see people complaining about electricity failure or water not coming for …
Wrong
Every opportunity comes with success and failures. Society tells us about look for positives and ignore negatives. Over the last few years, I have read Charlie Munger many times, and thinking in inversion has been a great mental model for me. I have been trying my best to add it as part of my decision …
hoopla
What is this hoopla we have created around us? Why do we have to be on top of everything? Do we need to consume, comment, and converse on everything?

Together
Since we have crossed the webinar and thought leadership around entrepreneurship during COVID19, I can write it. This COVID19 is a test of your leadership. All your principles painted on companies’ walls in huge fonts will be tested. Everyone will look upon you: customers, investors, and team members. Now is the time to find real …
kid
I understand the world we are in runs on money. We have to run, crawl, sweat for it. It is not easy to earn a respectable living considering the economy and price rise. A newborn child or a growing child needs love as much as he needs a diaper, cereal, milk, or iPad. Growing up …
fear
I was unaware of what fear of death could do to a relationship. I am starting to see a trend in the elderly population and taking the challenge of COVID19 together. On other occasions, they lived on their own. Sometimes the same roof with a different ideology, viewpoints, and opinions. I am seeing change happening, …
