We all have dealt with procrastination at some point in our life, all too familiar with that feeling of knowing you need to get something done but somehow not being able to do it. It may be something important that pressurises you into completing it at the last minute or many a times we don’tContinue reading “Be a Rhino”

Keep Trying
When four-time Olympic gold medal winner Sanya Richards-Ross said, “Failure I can live with; not trying is what I can’t handle”, she really meant it. Despite her extraordinary sporting accomplishments, the athletics star knows exactly what she is talking about, having gone through enough failure and heartache to sink all but the very strongest. “There are noContinue reading “Keep Trying”
The Masks We Wear
Often in life we don’t get to see what lies beneath a person’s “good self” presentation, also called a mask. We don’t get to find out if that person really is kind, caring, or not. The discrepancy is often hidden. And that is true for ourselves as well. We all put on masks to someContinue reading “The Masks We Wear”
Choices ~ Beach or Mountain?
When it comes right down to it, almost everything is a choice. Every single minute, we have choices in life. This is both a great truth and a hard lesson because it reminds us of our own power. Not power over others, but the hidden, untapped power to be our best and live out ourContinue reading “Choices ~ Beach or Mountain?”
The Company We Keep
A big chunk of our present and future state of mind and being depends on the company we keep. Surround yourself with the right people and you’ll be growing phenomenally. Surround yourself with the wrong people and you’ll probably be drifting like a leaf that goes where the wind blows! You’re the average of theContinue reading “The Company We Keep”
The Wills, the Won’ts and the Can’ts
This quote from Disney’s “The Black Hole” has been stuck in my mind since I first heard it years ago. We won’t always fall into one of these categories, but by and large we default to one of them. And our reasons, whether we are aware of them or no, are very different from eachContinue reading “The Wills, the Won’ts and the Can’ts”
Leaving Your Mark
I am not sure in what context did Elvis, the king of rock, uttered these words, but it doesn’t seem like something he’d say. It really doesn’t matter who said it, these words touched me and has left me pondering on how we leave our mark based on who we are. We leave a bitContinue reading “Leaving Your Mark”
Temporary Comforts
The quote above speaks a thousand words! I was immediately taken back to when I just started working many years ago where I didn’t think twice on things I bought for myself. There are two schools of thought: one which says you should live each day as if it were your last and the otherContinue reading “Temporary Comforts”
My Fishy Formula to Shine – 3 P
Sometimes we wonder how some people seem to be at the right place and the right time and have all the luck. I do not believe in luck as there is a lot more than what we hear of these “success stories”. As the quote implies, it is pointless having a great car that isContinue reading “My Fishy Formula to Shine – 3 P”
Materialism
Anything in excess is bad. Materialism, afflicting both, the rich and the poor, is in every way self-destructive. There is a strong relation between being materialistic and feeling empty, unhappy. We have a real problem on our hand when we couple materialism with our fintech boom, where you can easily get a loan with aContinue reading “Materialism”
