Not gonna lie, I used to feel jealous of cows, seeing them roaming so calm and carefree. But gladly, not anymore... Lately, my perspective on life and how I approach it has become more liberal, and I've become as carefree as a cow myself. Earlier, I had been a guy who cared about anything and everything. I was so obsessed with how I'm perceived and what others think of me, my career, the outcomes and everything. I was super concerned, sensitive, insecure and stressed out. I was walking on eggshells all the time. It made my life complicated and miserable. And now... I started seeing life from a bird's eye view and remember how small we are and how little our lives are, I remind myself how every incident or outcome is meaningful and a lesson, I remind myself that others don't care about us as much as we do, or as we think they do. I let people troll me and laugh at me, I watch sitcoms. Not just for fun, but to realise the reality of how simple our lives are when it is app...

I smiled with joy like a baby receiving chocolate, when I turned the shower on and experienced a good flow of water in my new hostel. I've been a bachelor for almost 4 years now, and I came across a lot of residential spaces during this period. But this is the first time I'm experiencing such a thing. Initially, I was fascinated, but later, I came to the realization that it might not be something beyond what we paid for, but only what we are supposed to get. Forget the shower. We had access to hygienic drinking water and food, a clean surrounding, sufficient provision of every amenity with thoughtful planning to make it comfortable and convenient for us without much hassle, and most importantly, immediate and responsive service to every concern we raised. If anyone had ever told me that there's such a living space at an affordable price, I would never have believed it. Because we got accustomed to experiencing even the normal standard of living as a luxury. No, I'm not ...

Have you ever felt so restless - mentally - that you constantly keep thinking, analysing, questioning and creating something? Can't sit idle, Can't focus on one thing, Can't have a personal life, Can't sleep peacefully, And feel completely restless... I was yesterday years old when I realized that this phenomenon is called the Curse of Creativity. Creativity is one thing that I've always admired when I see people creating something out of nowhere. I had always wished to be one of them, seeing it from far and thinking it is purely a blessing. But lately, as I myself have become more involved in it and started using it like a drug, it has become a second nature to me and it keeps my brain working non-stop leaving me restless. And what I've realized now is how draining or overwhelming it can be. I can see that too much of anything is good for nothing and that I've clearly overdosed. When you think that's all, there comes a fuel to the fire - the curse of pe...

Have you ever wondered if what you do in your job is all that you are? Or all that you can do? If yes, you've come to the right post. Lately, I've been asking myself the same questions and it took a while for me to pause, reflect, and realize that we are much more than what we do daily. Realizing it not only adds clarity but also sets us free from being yet another rat . I know how easy it is to get carried away by our daily tasks, meeting deadlines, and all. But it is crucial to pause and reflect because we all have a unique talent. In nature, an artist can’t play sports like a sportsperson, and a sportsperson can’t paint like an artist. I always admire that speciality of nature. It is why I want you to bring your real potential to effect and become more of who you really are and do what more you can do instead of just doing what you do daily. Some of you might be really into your job as it might be the one that you always wanted to do. And, some others have their interests ov...

The other day when I gave a thought about what I've been doing for a month where I didn't even sigh in between, I wondered. I got stuck, I got confused, and I went blank... The entire perspective of life collapsed in my head. It STARTED with the thoughts about my employment. Yes, I got employed recently placing the first step on my career ladder. It has barely been a month and I haven't even received my first paycheck yet. And, I'm not gonna lie - I'm really passionate about what I've been doing. I love the workplace, my colleagues, and the atmosphere. It is so great and I'm truly grateful to have such a calm, positive, and friendly environment. Because I hardly see people finding their jobs pleasing. So, I'm really grateful for it. But... When I gave a thought about what the purpose of running this way is... I realized that it is always the compensation or profit. And, extending my thoughts further took me to a scenario where I'll start earning mone...

Though the conversation on AI whether it is good or bad has become cliché lately, I still am writing this article because I've been seeing its effects so clearly everyday right in front of me in my workplace, where my colleagues and I are highly dependent on AI. It is pathetic to see ourself turning towards AI whenever some task is assigned to us. The fact of us not even consider thinking ourself and jumping on it right away really makes me worried. Of course, AI makes our work efficient and saves more time by helping us with our mundane repetitive tasks. I really appreciate that automation aspect of AI. But what I want to discuss here is the AI chatbots which jump in as a search engine, teacher, or even a mentor. That's good and great. But I feel that it is also time to look at what it takes away from us - our creativity. Yes, the one that makes us unique and also powered our civilization. But now... it is coming to an end... You can think that the AI can be creative, think o...
