A few weeks back I was travelling to another city and happened to park my car on the side of the road while booking a hotel at night. Unexpectedly, a bike rider hit my car. I saw him being flung off the bike and come crashing down. I thought he was dead. Lots of people…

day166 – 1st gen
There are mainly two kinds of leaders. Those who become a leader because his or her ancestors were leaders. Be it in politics, cinema, business or entrepreneurship, in all aspects of life there will be leaders like that. I respect them, because, at the end of the day, their capacity to become a leader and…
day165 – Not love
There’s tonnes of literature in hundreds and thousands of forms in many languages that glorify Love… and I felt I should share with you what I think is not Love… If there is something that limits you, which pulls you back, don’t think it is Love.. it is not. If there is bloodshed for whatever…
day164 – Volatile
I have seen people who wish to do things or get things done in a manner like a straight line. Sometimes even though things get done, such people are unsatisfied and even refuse to appreciate the result or the favorable outcome at the end because it doesn’t follow the line they have drawn in their…
day163 – Valleys
Social dogma influences us, knowingly or unknowingly, to chase the moon and mountains where peaks are always being celebrated and recognized and glorified, and we often forget about the lush, green, beautiful valleys. Valleys are equally desirable, appreciable, and worth chasing – as great as the mountains. At the experiential level when we all try…
day162 – Planet-friendly
After almost a year, I visited a beach in the morning, it was comparatively calm and empty. Some people were doing their morning exercises and jogging near the pavements, the municipal workers were also around doing their regular morning cleaning. Something I noticed predominantly in their waste collection bags were the many disposable face masks….
day161 – Orange
I used to have orange juice for breakfast for many years, a routine that later changed because of the change in my lifestyle. Orange still remains one of my favourite fruits, though. There are times when I go to juice shops and ask for the menu and they say they have this and that, and…
day160 – Postpone
I happened to listen to a podcast about procrastination, why people procrastinate and what’s the psychology behind postponing things. In short, it says that you procrastinate simply because you really don’t want to do something, you really don’t wish to do it, but you are supposed to do it for another reason or purpose. You…
day159 – Clubhouse
Recently I landed on a newly launched social media product called ClubHouse. It is a platform completely driven by voice notes (live voice messenger system ). In fact, I have thought about such a social media platform, and I was excited that someone made that idea into reality. It works more like a live podcasting…
day158 – GPS
Just 15 years back it was quite unthinkable to arrive at a location anywhere else in the world with precision using the map applications now we have on our smartphones. When you order something the delivery executive reaches you with utmost precision, when you engage with an application it gives you recommendations and suggestions based…
