Are we Sparrows?

The society we live in today appears to inspire a lot of flying. Most people you come across are flying in or out, flying with someone for a while, flying towards new experiences, hunting for what others don’t have, flying away from relationships, binding, commitment since we must be industrious, work hard and make more, … Continue reading

Stories, Identity, Community & Nationalism

Over the last few years, the term Nationalism appears to have irrevocably crept into the lexicon of urban India that constitutes almost half of the country today (not merely the metros anymore). Mind you, we are not talking about patriotism, the love for your nation or acting to defend your country in times of war … Continue reading

Success or Happiness…Choose!

Happiness is a responsibility you owe to yourself. You can neither delegate nor hold anyone or anything responsible for it. It is not the same thing as Success. Success is a measure while happiness is the reason, we have a life to lead. Successes are milestones you have left behind, never to come alive again. … Continue reading

Do you feel the Poverty?

Poverty of Time! Poverty of Relationships! Poverty of Peace, Harmony, Happiness! I am erratic by nature; routines bug me pretty fast.

When I chanced upon my old friend Ramesh today, after a … Continue reading

Merry Christmas from India – It’s a festival Dude!

I requested my children to make me a Christmas greeting (soft copy) that I could respond with, given the ever-burgeoning unread messages on my WhatsApp. I am so happy that I deleted the FB App before Covid entered our lives. Barring LinkedIn, I have no social media junk interfering in my life. BBC reported the … Continue reading

Generation Gap (an urban Indian’s perspective)

Should we simply ignore or merely acknowledge, or learn to bridge this Gen-Gap? Despite the disintegration of family as a multi-generational large unit under one roof, we cannot lead our lives without interacting, transacting, and even nurturing relationships across generation gaps. Not many make a choice to leave the older or the younger generation in … Continue reading

Psychological Armoury (Personality)

In my earlier article, ‘Tenacity & Leadership’, I started with asking a question, “Is tenacity an integral part of a leader or manager’s psychological armoury (personality)?” I received a good amount of positive feedback on the article, but interestingly, nobody commented on my using the word armoury when referring to our psychological personality.
