Thankfully unsuccessful
I am writing this on Thanksgiving Day here in the states. Obviously, I have to write about what I’m thankful for. I just want to say thank you to all of you who have ever come across this blog and given it a read. And I am even more thankful that this page is experiencing…

Breaking a first impression
I have an entire list of things I can’t do. Or rather, I have a list of things I can’t do if I want to uphold a particular image. I want to leave a good impression, even though I haven’t quite defined what that means. All I know is that, I am constantly thinking how…

Turns out I’m not a magician
This is awkward, but I must admit to you all, and more importantly to myself, that I am not a magician. I had been going through life with a set of hopes and dreams, with this vision of how my life would be radically different in three years. I have just come to the painful…

On frog clutches and fearlessness
I just saw a clutch from JW Anderson. And I thought it was ridiculous. Maybe you do too. It is a 3D printed plastic frog. I mean looking at it, it looks like the model is walking around town with a pet frog. And I laughed out loud, literally, when I saw how it opens.…

Stop delaying gratification, for the most part
In the past, when I was diligent in keeping up with my habits, I didn’t miss a day. More recently, I found that I have been missing a lot of days. I couldn’t quite figure out why I was so much more “lazy” now. It was especially frustrating because I knew I had done better…

I am now convinced
I am fairly certain that the affliction that you are not good enough is only experienced by those who most certainly are. And that those who believe they are of no use are those who bring the most value. Those who fear they are most unloveable are already loved deeply. Those who believe their life…
