One of the life learning in life has been Be Yourself. I keep sermonizing this to everyone. Authenticity is what keeps us going in the long run, not mask or lipstick. I have seen many relationships falling apart because of the lack of authenticity. Employees join with a promise, serve something else. People get married …

cult
Our society is setting up the wrong precedence by creating cult leaders in entrepreneurship. It’s ruining the future generation and taking them in the wrong direction. Instead of solving pain, it has become a race. The success has become fundraising announcements and Twitter followers. Instead of creating long-term value, it has become camaraderie and groups.
dreamers
We should dream and strive towards making it a reality. Having a dream alone is not enough. There was a dreamer behind most innovations and, it was their itch: an airplane, cars, electricity, or computer. We, humans, are gifted and, our will to go against the odds has taken civilization beyond: Mahatma Gandhi and Martin …
glory
I don’t understand why we have made entrepreneurship something glorious. Some of us do it for the kick of it. One part of my brain says, ooh we are going to uncharted territory and taking all the risk and creating something unique. The other side of my brain says we are just trying to make …
attention
We are part of the attention economy. Actors and performers are spending hours on Instagram posing beach vacation photos. Mare mortals like us feel that we are wasting our time.

chatter
Have you tried sitting 10 minutes quietly without a cellphone or internet? Like being with yourself and your thoughts?What happens when you try doing it?Does your mind explode? People spend money or lock themselves for ten days at vipassana. How much of this helps? We are what we think. Observing why and what we are …
connect
It’s not easy to meet like-minded people. We live around humans but still, we relate with very few. Some become our friends for life and others our well-wishers. It’s like they understand us our actions and observation so well. It is like they are our mirror. If we end up finding such people, living becomes …
build
I have heard from many about planning and then executing. My problem with planning is that it drains you so much that there is no energy left in execution. There exists a multibillion-dollar industry on project management and roadmap tracking. On a multi-year and thousand minds, it makes sense. But when we are small and …
social
I tried my best asking parent to move with me and leave Bihar. I realized after all these years of trying, it is not happening. One main reason for this is the social capital built in the last 50 years. My mom and dad have a separate bunch of friend circles. Some meet every day …
