I am looking for new roles at startups after freelancing for the last 6 months, here’s why: Six months ago, I wanted to spend some time travelling and designing my lifestyle around it. I did not want to completely disengage from work, so I decided to freelance while I travelled. I learned a few thingsContinue reading “Why am I pausing freelancing?”

Notes to my Younger Self: Part 2
To believe or not to believe; To seek or not to seek; Well, that’s the wrong question. Or rather an incomplete question. You see: Somedays you believe in God. Somedays you seek God. Somedays you believe in yourself. Somedays you seek yourself. It is only when you pause believing in yourself; That you truly seekContinue reading “Notes to my Younger Self: Part 2”
Writing and Flow State
There are times when the act of writing transforms into a seamless flow. I’ve realized that this flow state in writing is directly tied to my willingness to let the ‘witness’ speak. This witness is always active in the background. Continuously collecting observations from both my internal as well as external world. By observations, IContinue reading “Writing and Flow State”
Notes to my Younger Self: Part 1
You are entering a world of narratives. Everything. Everywhere. All is narrative. No one, absolutely no one knows what they are doing. Yes, that clueless teenager to the 80-year-old wise man. Both are different sides of the same coin. The only difference is that the wise old man has learnt to tell a good story.Continue reading “Notes to my Younger Self: Part 1”
Logistics is a real deal!
I recently came back from my solo trip across Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. During this trip, there’s one aspect of life I’ve come to appreciate a lot: the logistics and supply chain of everything around us. If there is something I have enjoyed the most on the trip, it is asking every random vendor andContinue reading “Logistics is a real deal!”
Imposter Syndrome and Writing
I began counting: one, two, three… and then I stopped. There were just too many to count. What I am referring to are unpublished posts. Not because they turned out to be bad in my mind, but because I just couldn’t hit publish. Why? It is this simple question that always stopped me: “Am IContinue reading “Imposter Syndrome and Writing”
Writing and Thinking Work Together
Do you also suffer from the ‘I should know what I want to tell the world before I start writing’ Syndrome? (Please help me with a better name in the comments 😂) I’ve suffered from this for years but recently found a cure and am now in the recovery phase. More than a cure, itContinue reading “Writing and Thinking Work Together”
All you have to do is “Live”
“My life? It’s just wake up, work, eat, sleep. Nothing special.” This is the usual theme during my initial consultations with clients for personal branding. And you’ll be surprised by how many people think of their life this way. I often encounter clients who believe their lives are ‘too mundane’ to be story-worthy. For them,Continue reading “All you have to do is “Live””
Method Acting and Ghostwriting
Lately, I’ve been deeply engrossed in the world of method acting. No, I’m not planning a career switch to acting. But there’s something else: After leaving my full-time job in October, I tried my hands at personal branding and ghostwriting. Initially, I was skeptical: “Do people genuinely need help to tell their stories? Can someoneContinue reading “Method Acting and Ghostwriting”
What I learned about money
Here’s what I learned about money💰 in the last 2 years: When I began my career, I was pretty naive about money. What is money after all? For me, it was the ability to purchase ‘things’. Having an “X” amount of money means I could buy XYZ things. I could pay my XYZ bills. IContinue reading “What I learned about money”
