Some people think they will get an easy way out on the back of other hard-working co-founders. It will be an easy exit and fruitful operation with more intelligent co-founders to back them. It can work in the short run. In the long run, everyone has to perform. You are not in a government job …

divide
We are a 70-plus-year-old independent nation now. Our democracy is the biggest in the world. Yet the current trend I am seeing ends up being the same during the election. Caste and religion are still playing central issues in elections. The discussion should have been on job creation, education, health, and food. I am reading …
validation
We are a living validation machine. We are one of the millions in the faceless world of the internet. We want compliments from others. People we have never met to like, comment, and compliment us. We are hollow from the inside. We carry smiles for Instagram. Our relationship is testing waters, but we are a …
Face
The advantage of believing in what people tell you on your face is that you don’t have to worry about the game they play. We live in a world where people play games.

maturity
People say maturity comes with age. I feel it comes with experience, circumstances, and upbringing. We see youngsters starting to earn early on because they have to feed their parents and siblings. If they do not do it, everyone will sleep empty-bellied. It is maturity that the kid has taken responsibility on his shoulders. He …
nothing
There are some blank days in my life when I wonder what I am doing. These are the days when the brain keeps fighting with the ghost, an imaginary devil whose job is to keep fighting me and making me believe about nothing. When I say nothing, it simply means why are you running? What …
parasite
There are few types of people, few who will suck your blood to the core. They will usually be critical about anything, pessimistic, and blame the world for their miseries. They have all the knowledge about the world, money, and how to suck energy and blood from others. They will excel at everything from showing …
delay
We are creatures of delaying decisions. We will suffer in a relationship, but the sunk cost will cause us to suffer. Things are not working well with business, but instead of calling it quit, we will continue spending time with the hope of things improving. The same happens with giving feedback to employees, kids, or partners. We …
