We are all born narcissists. Some a little while others a lot. Our desire is to be loved and listened to. Some get angry, pensive when in a group, family, relationship others start getting all the focus and importance. On the scale of narcissism, one does the destruction. If you are or people are you […]

differences
The world is not a utopia and, an organization runs with a group of people. We all have our own opinions, beliefs. We work together for the greater good: the success of the organization. It means we will be keeping our differences, sail through, and progress. It is like a strong opinion weakly held. We […]
standards
I keep hearing and sometimes argue over specifications, be it a product or design. We have their specific standards or best practices defined. For first-time users and emerging demography, these standards might not hold. I believe in minimalism (thanks to AB & minio) and the “don’t make me think” paradigm. At times we have to […]
confidence
Why are we so stressed and less in confidence? Is it because of the treadmill of consumerism? Or is it because we are living in a divided world. The world where there is no equality or level playing field? We can see this in a city itself, one part has no water, electricity and living […]
actions
Do we not own our actions? Why do we have to blame others for our failures and success all through ourselves? Why can’t we accept our mistakes and learn from them? Is it more to do with our ego?
scar
I was with a few friends over dinner last night. We all were talking about subjects from work-life balance to managing a team. One thing was common: everyone has gone through the battle and has a scar. Life is not easy for anyone: be it an employee, founder, or investor. We are all fighting our […]
checklist
Sometimes I wonder if we are living my own life. It is like enabling someone else checklist. It is like running fast and, it seems there is no end to it. Is this how we humans live? Is consumerism or it is society? Or is it we who is responsible for this? Are you living […]
unlearn
I finished reading Adam Grant’s: Think Again. The book talks about the power of learning by unlearning, shedding our biases, and seeing people, the world around us more objectively. We live in a society, spend time with people who agree with our view. It is like living in a walled garden with limited knowledge and […]
stereotype
We are living in a divided world. How we see our world, how we react differs from people to people. We all have our ideological alignments. It is like a bubble we have wrapped ourselves. Why do treat humans differently on color, caste, religion, or sex? Is it because we are uneducated or educated irrational […]
Ambition
Ambitions are what defines our journey. People around us have a role to play. It is like a fuel that keeps us going. There are no right or wrong options and, a lot depends on what is our true north. Our world wants us to follow a destined template. It can jeopardize one’s ambition. So […]
