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...

Mumbai

Mumbai, as rightly said is not just a city but an emotion. This situation has really amazed us on shutting down of things for a while and we miss them. Lifeline of the city, locals have been shut, this is the longest interruption of services we have come across. Being late and seeing the train late too, is such a blessing in disguise, and ofcourse during the peak hours how adventure it is to travel. Where each of us would unquestionably have a story to talk about. Hearing some strangers gossips and then pretending that you did not listen, oh c'mon all of us do that. From every song you listen, and the joy of the window seat is all that you need. Every friend who is your travel partner. Unlike other Indian cities where we have ‘train friends’ who by virtue of travelling everyday in the same railway compartment become friends. Next thing which occurs my mind and I miss the most is Juhu beach where begger would have definitely tried tricking you, but just better be smart!. I would say...

Emotions

Emotions are just so sensitive and obviously difficult to understand on an individual level. Just so I felt the need to talk about how I feel at that phase. I just hope you can resonate, at some level. For me and maybe most of us keeping our mental architecture is top most priority, but yes sometimes you get stuck at a certain thought and then you find nothing is going right off the path. It's a deadlock, you just don't like to talk to anyone. It is a sense where you just want to disconnect or maybe isolate with the rest of the world. Also it's a static in your brain, and you are just so unfocused. Sometimes when you are physically present and emotionally into some other zone.  When you fear to share your emotions to people as they mirror back saying "I feel the same way." World where everything is running through Artificial Intelligence it has almost forced us to be their slaves.  Sometimes we tend to forget human string of compassion, hope, dreams. Instead we ai...

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 ...
