I had a chat a few days ago with a friend on this subject. It did not go well. It did not go well because of one point – the person did not feel that he/she had done anything wrong. Now, when I said that both sides in the issue he/she was involved in, had…
I’m back after a hiatus
I’m back after a hiatus … My posts on various subjects were posted on the company website and my LinkedIn Page.

What will they think…
What will they think…Do it my way One of the most challenging social issues that people face is handling the worry of what others feel about them. ‘Others’ can be neighbours, classmates, friends, family, enemies – in fact, anyone we know of. This is what cramps us in every thing we do. A lot of…
Romanticizing Pressure..
Romanticizing pressure: During this pandemic one of the most commonly used phrases is – Handle the pressure. Now, these three words sound great.
