The Three Types of Growth Graphs

-
Image
­The late twenties of my life, have brought me face to face to one realization. We are all growing in different ways. Even if sometimes life feels stagnant, it is not. It might sound like a forced positivity to you. In an era, where AI replacement in jobs have cut down half the possibilities for entry-level work experiences, I am one of the freshest victims. Sometimes I wonder whether Artificial Intelligence is really the problem or whether foolish CEOs are. CEOs who think they can eliminate everyone from the industry and run their companies solely through AI. So, I am not forcing noble thoughts in your head, no. I am just choosing optimism as a life’s standpoint. However, this article is not about discussing the AI-approved stupidity in the corporate. Will get into that later. This article is for people who feel that they are stuck in some stagnant water, in a muddy web of life, or let’s say in a mire. This article is to make you believe that you may not be able to see your grow...

Error 609 FOUND: Being Not Enough

Hi, this is just another relationship-based article. It will not bring any change or transformation to the GDP of my Nation. But it might just transform someone’s social attitude towards themselves. Thought of the Day? “How well you handle your work shows your academic knowledge and skills. How well you handle your relationships, shows your upbringing” © Sk Muskan Tabasum Well, a lot of us weigh our value and worth, based on how somebody else treats us. After a relationship ends or a lover cheat on the partner, you would often find the other person screaming at the top of their voice (In Bollywood at least), “ mere pyaar mein akhir aisi kya kami reh gayi thi? ” I have seen the same resonance with my friends, juniors, seniors… etc. When a partner leaves or a relationship does not work, people often blame themselves. They feel- it was their fault, their drawback. It was their limitations that they could not stand up to the expectations of their partner. They feel that they w...

10 Negative But important Vices of Life: Being Out-focused

-
Image
  Disclaimer: To people who believe that Mahabharat was a myth, for them my anecdote is mythical. To people like me, who believe in the existence of Shri Krishna, my anecdote is historical. Historically (mythically), the stories of past tell us that there are two types of blind. One by birth. Those who did not have a choice except being born blind, to have seen nothing in the world, Seeing it through other people’s narration and tales. The one who in Mahabharata was King Dhritarashtra. The other blind is the blind by choice. Those who are so adamant in their choices, perspectives, theories, decisions and other things that they do not know what is happening around. People who have the entire world at their blind spot. People who are so focused on thrusting their decisions that cannot see the impact of it on the lives of other people, themselves and the society at large. The one in Mahabharata who was Gandhari, the princess of Gandhar. Princess Gandhari was not born blind. She wa...

Error 609 Found: Benefit of Misunderstandings

-
Image
  It’s July 2025, and if somebody would have asked me before this day, what am I afraid of- I would take two hours and say, nothing. There is no specific thing that comes to my mind of which I am afraid of. My mother is cool. My sister is sassy. My brother is my second copy (revised edition). Spiders? Well, I accept the fact that I co-exist with them. Crocodiles? By God’s grace I do not have to meet and greet them in human or animal form regularly. Lions? I live with Leos! But today, I realized that I am afraid of misunderstandings. That is a part of our existence that can drive a person to hate you, to be against you, to become an enemy. In my book Kaliyuga On My Curls, I had added a note that Misunderstandings are like Brown-tinted glasses. It can change how you appear to a person. This note was a hard-earned learning of my growing up. All my life, I have been very annoyed at the lazy-witted people for their quick-judgement on me. Or anybody. I do not find it fair whe...

The Greatness of Gratefulness

-
Image
I had been so enchanted by the idea of the cosmic numbers that every time I would see 11:11, I would start uttering all the nicest things I have been waiting, working and praying for. You know right? The idea of 11:11 and 3:33- the magical numbers that are a sign that the Universe is listening to you. Now, suppose each time your boyfriend or girlfriend comes to meet you, they start telling you about all the ‘pending things’ that you are supposed to bring them. No appreciation for the ice-cream the other day, no thank you for the happy cinema date, no kisses for the love you keep giving them- no, nothing. Just a trail of ‘things to do’, like Myntra and Flipkart has ‘things to buy’. Applications can work like that, (even they ask for platform fee and good reviews). Relationships don’t. At one time, you would get tired of that ingrate and begin to regret. Mind you, this was just an example. If you think of yourself to be carrying a relationship with the Universe/cosmos/God… (which...

Error 609 Found: Love and Commitment Myths

-
Image
 So, someone asked me, what would you choose between love and commitment? And I asked, Does not Love and Commitment go hand in hand? You should never commit to someone; you are not in love with- that is like cheating on to yourself. When you commit to someone you don’t love, who are you fooling other than yourself. When you say that I love you, and I cannot live without you to someone you definitely don’t love and can evidently live without- Who did you fool? We are fools to think that people cheat on others. Committing to someone you do not actually love is the first step to self-betrayal. Everything that you do later is just an add-on cheese to that layer of self-betrayal. However, when you are in love and you are committed. You need to keep loving that person because we don’t make commitments to the other person. A commitment is a promise you made not just to your beloved, but also to yourself. Backing out is like breaking a promise you made to yourself. Once you are com...

10 Negative but Important Vices for Life: Being a Rebel

-
Image
 If you cannot rebel. You cannot repel. If you cannot rebel, you cannot repel people who want nothing but the worst of you. I am writing this post on a warm afternoon. It is the first of June, and some people are in their air-conditioned rooms, feeling as uncomfortable as a poor child without food. Does not sound sensible, right? How can the poor child be of any equal to a child in an AC room with a world-class phone and first-class parents? You know, rebellion is seen as a state of character which needs to be subdued, control and better deleted. A hero can be rebellious, but in films or in the house next door. Nobody wants their relative to be rebellious. Nobody wants a person who says a clear NO without any reason to it.  But, not having a reason to say NO and yet saying it is a rare skill. Knowing that you do not like the approach of certain things in life and not minding to have a reason to justify people is needful. Rebellion is needful when the world is mystified to run ...
