From Tony Robbins’s ‘The Monk who sold his Ferrari’: “How would you drop an egg thruogh a height of four feet, with a floor of concrete below, and still not have it cracked?”
Trivially, we all begin by thinking how to circumvent the hardness of the concrete, or the weakness of the egg. We do not …
When was the last time you were delighted to get something you were ‘supposed’ to? For instance, how many of us would actually delight in receiving breakfast? Not me!
What we do not struggle for, we take as granted — the most fundamental example being our own existence. Rarely would one find somebody so conscientious, he actually …
It happened. Like, two weeks ago. See — that’s how awesomely fast my life is. Hence, I forgot to tell you about it. Now, I’m pretty officially also called tech.head, while Anurag is called Ac. Head. And I’ve actually abandoned most of my anger at that. Here go my “technical” contributions to this …

It seriously pains me, how every body opinionates on every other thing, person, and activity. The worst part perhaps, is how even I, despite being conscious of this terrible habit, fall prone to it often.
I want to …
I registered for this “blog a Penguin India Classic”, got the book, and didn’t manage to complete it for nearly two months. That goes nowhere to say how good or bad the book was, but does go to say how callous, distracted and shameless a person I am.
Well, I finally managed to read …
A story. Yup. That’s all it is. Minus the adjectives.
Life-changing, memorable, and most influential; unforgettable and really thoroughly awesome. Of course it would only be self-flattering to say any such thing on themselves.
It is about a seagull with the name of Jonathan Livingston. I could go about telling you the whole story, considering its just …
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable man persists in attempting to adapt the world to himself. All progress in the world, therefore, is dependent on the unreasonable man.
