Jam Jar

In this transition, each of us has become future-ready even before we thought of it, similarly, we have also obtained so many options unlatched. When we were kids, we all wanted to become a doctor, someday a lawyer, or maybe run a business or something. Skip to 20 years and you see different career choices right in front of you. The follow-up question is how does one know which career is best suited for them? So, I happened to recently read this book The Defining Decade by Meg Jay- which had a very beautiful case study I’d like to share. It is called the Jam experiment, so they choose a local grocery store to understand one's life choices. So, there were two conditions, one which has six flavors available for tasting, whereas in the second condition it has six plus the eighteen more flavors of jam. Cut to the chase study showed that the twenty-four-flavor table attracted more attention yet resulted in fewer buyers. Shoppers flocked to the exciting array, yet most became overwhelmed...

4 business books you must read

The one most familiar thing that I have heard from my friends is that they wish to read business books but can’t decide which one to start from. Everyone has a different taste and some books may work for you while some may not. So, I thought of recommending you 4 best business books I have read which I found had nuggets of gold and are worth giving it a shot. 1. Ambani and Sons: I have been meaning to find Polyester Prince but it wasn’t available and I came across this book. The book is very catchy and will hold your attention till the end. The way the author has started would already convince you to know what’s further? When Dhirubhai asserted ‘Jealousy is a mark of respect’ I felt it was just impeccable. This book explains the whole evolution of Indian business including the gloomy side of Indian business and politics. You also get an insight of an old school Gujarati family man and a mastermind building a first-class foundation. Later on, this book also explains the dispute b...

The Ride of a Lifetime

Disney is something we have grown up watching. So, I have been longing to read this book by Robert Iger, CEO of The Walt Disney Company. If you like reading business books then this is definitely a quality choice to make, so again if you don’t like reading or not aspiring to be CEOs this leadership book can help you in personal life too. These are six takeaways from this book: 1. Leadership : Iger tells why is it vital to create space in daily life to let your thoughts wander your job. While sharing his journey he mentions his relation with Steve Jobs and how he always remembered him and his lessons and one beautiful thing Iger mentions about him is that “How Steve was great weighting all sides of an issue and not allowing negatives drown out positives, particularly for things he wanted to accomplish.” That’s a powerful quality to learn.  2. Innovation: As this happened in an early 2000' due to rapid change in technology, they had to adapt it. Time in time Iger recalls ...

Have that one person in your life

-
Each of us want distinct things from life, but there is a familiar bottom line for all of us which is to be happy. Affirmative to say having people who bring out the best in you and with whom you can have healthy discussions. Talking about the things that matter to you and with whom you can share almost everything. It is just the vibe with certain people which helps you connect on an inner level. Make sure you pick them wisely. We certainly find things right from our view as we are blindfolded by reality, this is when you need that one person to guide you in the right direction and be brutally honest with you. The truth might sound bitter, but that’s what we sometimes want to hear. Of course, the choice is always yours, you choose what you want. In spite of all this if they make a wrong decision make sure to be a supportive friend. Apart from this, there are people who give you constant unasked opinions, however prospect people who are non-judgmental who could really understand you at ...
