I am indeed blest to have friends who I can trust. The truth is nobody wants to deal with friends they can’t trust to give their sincere opinion. You always want to know your friends’ opinion instead of them just accepting whatever you say to them because you are friends. If there is no sincerityContinue reading “Sincere Friends”

It’s never too late to change your life
Too often we catch ourselves on autopilot mode, caught in the same routine, the same 9-5 grind. Unhappy, unfulfilled, and uninspired we go through life counting time instead of making time count. While it is perfectly normal to crave routine, there is so much more to be discovered outside of our comfort zones. We tend toContinue reading “It’s never too late to change your life”
The Power of Appreciation
When was the last time you told someone that you appreciate them? It is something we often take for granted, especially with the people we love and appreciate the most. Sometimes this happens because we’re around them all of the time. Sometimes it’s because we think they surely know how we feel about them. OrContinue reading “The Power of Appreciation”
P.A.T.H.
We go through a whole gamut of emotions everyday, each with varying degrees of intensity and duration. Most of us are very comfortable with expressing our positive emotions. At the same time, we tend to struggle dealing with our negative emotions. I still have a hard time expressing myself when it comes to negative feelings.Continue reading “P.A.T.H.”
Tied to Technology
When I saw this picture on Facebook, I was immediately transported to the days when we got our first landline at home. We were in awe of such a magical device. How times have changed and what a different world we live in. Our phones have become so powerful and we’ve become completely dependent onContinue reading “Tied to Technology”
The 90% rule that puts you 100% in control
We spend a lot of our time reacting and responding to people and situations around us. And often, we react/respond without thinking. It is an instinctive reaction, spontaneous, a gut reaction, based on fear and insecurities, and it’s not the most rational or appropriate way to act. I admire those who are cool and calm,Continue reading “The 90% rule that puts you 100% in control”
The Attitude of Gratitude
Someone with an attitude of gratitude appreciates everything in life. They are grateful for their relationships, their health, their business, and their sense of well-being. Having an attitude of gratitude is important because it shifts your focus from yourself to appreciating someone else or something else. When we focus on our gratitude, the tide ofContinue reading “The Attitude of Gratitude”
The Art of Being Tactful
At Xavier’s, I was member of a group called AICUF (All India Catholic University Federation) that organises various activities, keeping three objectives: Social Outreach, Personality Development, and Spiritual Growth. And as part of the core organising team, we had a session on feedback to help us improve and grow. I smiled when I saw “IContinue reading “The Art of Being Tactful”
Be Flawsome!
I came across this post on LinkedIn a few days back and it just brought a big smile to my face. We are all fallible human beings and we live in a world of flaws. And yet ironically, most of us (including myself!) place a high value on perfection. Why chase a facade of unattainableContinue reading “Be Flawsome!”
Competition
I’ve never liked competition. Do I need to see someone else lose to feel better about myself? Do I need a bigger house or a fancier car to be happy? Do I need to put others down to get that promotion at work? Here in India, right from the time we’re in school, we areContinue reading “Competition”
