The Best Career Advice I Ever Heard: 'Dream Big,'... →
1. “People break down into two groups, motors and anchors. You always want to surround yourself by people who push you forward, not hold you down.”
2. “There are things in life that you can’t control…so don’t waste your time, energy or sanity on them. You can only control your reaction to them…so make your reaction worthy, smart and sane.”

chiquegeek asked: You're the best friend a human could ask for. I don't know if we'll be friends in ten years. Maybe we won't speak. But in case I never say it again, thank you so very much. I heart you. Thanks for giving me strength and reminding me to be patient. I may not be there right now, but if I do ever get there.. it'll partly be because of you!

..understanding change, from an unknowns positive...
The more things change, the more they stay the same. I’m not sure who the first person was who said that. Probably Shakespeare. Or maybe Sting. But at the moment, it’s the sentence that best explains my tragic flaw, my inability to change. I don’t think I’m alone in this. The more I get to know other people, the more I realize it’s kind of everyone’s flaw....

Handling the Complexity of Society–Anywhere. →
Societies are so complex. In ways, they are so gruesome, so ugly. Just disgusting filth.
I’m not just talking about India, I’m talking about in every country in the world, there are things that make you turn your eyes in shame, pretending that it’s not true in your country, in your town, in your class, caste, family, race, upbringing.
You’re pure. And good. And civilized. It’s the rest of the...

23 Successful People Who Get Up Early →
Most business leaders get up early.
This trait was common to 17 CEOs surveyed by Jim Citrin at Yahoo! Finance a few years ago. And it’s a trait we expect from CEOs.
They are go-getters who want to start the day before their peers and competitors, who want to work long hours and have enough time for their personal life too.
Many function unbelievably well on little sleep. Others may not...

Art of Living - Koregaon Park, Pune, India
I’ve heard of Art of Living in various countries, and I really wanted to understand what it was all about, and took the course. Wasn’t life changing, as I was hoping for it to be, but definitely learnt and picked up a few things. Happiness does lie within ourselves.
Some things I took note of and remember: Opposite values are complimentary...

I remember reading Visual Loops’: Cost of Relocating and it made me realize, that I should write exactly what my “vacation” was about, for the most part, and what my “cost” of relocation is.
Coming to India, isn’t the strangest of experiences, since I’ve worked here and travelled here numerous times over the past 22 years.. However, there was this peculiar emotion I...
