We are living our life in auto mode. Our life is dictated by others. We have a government to tell us how we should live, what we should eat, and how much taxes we pay. Similarly, our parents have a major influence on us starting from what we should study to whom we should marry. The web …

Earth Day
I saw all over Twitter about the Earth Day post. It’s sad as a civilization where we have come to. Deforestation, pollution, and mass production have changed us all. Fast fashion to quick commerce to e-commerce. We are paying the price for it all. We became advanced and got sedated with the consumerism bug. We …
Surround
Surround yourself with progressive people: doers, optimists, and believers. Our life is too short to be surrounded by toxic people. We live and think as per our surroundings and company of ours. Waking up, walking, and working with people whose belief drains you will only affect your progress. Not everyone is lucky enough to choose …
neurotic
Certain people suffer from within. They are neurotic, and whatever good you do for them, they will come and bite you. They are unhappy about their life and don’t like others’ happiness. As a result, they will create all the hurdles and try to hurt others. These people enjoy seeing others hurt. They are all …
limited
There are things we take for granted. It can be our relationship or the unaccumulated wealth of our forefathers. We end up splurging, showing the least respect. As a result, it vanishes.

team
A leader’s role is to lead and take the organization forward. They are responsible for setting up the culture, values, and other virtues. It is not an easy job with evergrowing team size. That is where mentoring comes into the picture. A leader requires a team that can outgrow them by learning their everyday virtues. …
strength
We have to focus on our mental strength more than our physical. We are living in a world where everyone acts hyper-competitive. Each one has personal gain above the rest. We can stay virtuous and play by our strength. Many scenarios arise that we have no control over. These are the times when mental well-being …
Faith
Time and again, we hear about faith. People tell stories of overcoming various hardships with undaunted faith. We know our life is unpredictable. But that does not mean we should stop living. There are stories of people surviving on islands alone after a ship disaster or mountaineers breathing in frozen glaciers for days. They say …
Race
Time and again, I have to remind my founder friends that building on VC money is different from building bootstrap way. Raising from others, you are accountable and have to progress at a certain pace. The progress of company investor’s incentives are hard aligned. The expectations of the founder and investor need to be aligned. …
