Blessing

“Count your blessings” is a thing of the past. These days we are running like mad cows and making a list of things we don’t have.

We are running hard at the empty glass of our life instead what all we have and celebrating, cheering about it.

We have forgotten joy in little things, laughing and being crazy. We are all professionals now, seeking perfection in life on the treadmill for the next big thing.

When was the last time you made a surprise visit to your parents or called friends and gossiped? You are dying every moment: that is the reality of life. You will take nothing after death.

empty

We have started avoiding emptiness. We want to hoard from materialistic possession to an unwanted stream of unending information via the internet.

The power of emptiness is rare these days. As a result, we are thinking less. We are more reactive, and we are hindering our creativity.

How can a crowded mind be creative? Will there be any scope for the flow of independent thoughts?

reality

Do we craft our own reality?
Is it not we who define our perception and how we react? Your reality might be imagination for others or vice versa. So how do we know what is real and unreal?

Should we give up pursuing our reality because it is unreal for the world? Should we become a slave to the perception of others?

What would have happened to the airplane, lightbulb, and uncounted innovation if those inventors had believed in the perception of others?

We have one life, and the reality is ours. We should keep dreaming and building what is unthinkable for others.

confidence

With confidence, we can win over challenges in life. Most of us lack confidence, and, as a result, they give up without trying. It means a good chunk of us who are confident has less competition.

Our life is limited; most die with fear, pessimism, and not trying. It torments them from the inside and makes them bitter.

I keep hearing stories of not trying the idea for a startup. Failed to express love to a best friend. And over a few glasses, opening up and crying. For what good?

We look for results even before taking the first step, which is trying with confidence.

Efficiency

Successful organizations are built with responsible and efficient talent.
Efficiency comes with drive and freedom. You can build armory of talented individual contributors, but if they are not a team player, it will hamper the organization.

The more I read and realize about building an efficient team, it boils down to every next hire we make. What has worked for us is finding people with empathy and ability to work as a team and deliver independently.

An organization can never be efficient if one person has to take all the shots and others following them.

closet

I have gotten at peace with realizing that I am living like a traveler and this life is full of co-travelers in various forms: friends, partners, competitors, and foes. We merry, celebrate and laugh. We get back to travel mode.

It’s our option to cherish those memories or cry and celebrate the moment.

I think the best life is a life without keeping anything in our little closet of memories.

Pagal

Pagal hai tu Aisa kahte hai duniya usess. Duniya ko wo pagal kehte phirta hai. Kya sab ke sab pagal hai.

Pagal ke pagalpan me ek mayusi se hai, kuch na hone ki khusi hai aur pal ko is pal me jine ka gurur.

Kitne pagal hai hum sab Jo us pagal ke tareh pagal ho jiye ja rahe hai. Kitne pagal hai hum ko mohtaaz hai kisi aur ke apne khusi ke liye.
Kitne pagal hai hum bhage za rahe hai is duniya ke bhagduur me sabkuch paane ke liye.
Hum itne pagal hai ki khud ke he nai Hai.

Phir bhi hamara pagalpan to dekho uss ablee insaan ko pagal bata uska mazzak ura rahe hai jo zindagi ko apne Marzi se bekhauff ziye ja raha hai.
