I was convinced that there was only a limited amount of money in the world. Today, I know wealth can be created.
Growing up, we equate our parents to God. Hits hard!
Growing up, the only definition of success was rich AND famous. Today, I realize that success has little to do with money and fame.
This was a big one for me. Today, I'm wiser and I know that marks have very little to do with who you are.
Growing up, life felt like a popularity contest. We grow up, don't we? What are some truths from your childhood that you now know aren't truths?

📸 My week, in picturesIn this section, I share my week in pictures, for those who do not like to read as much as I write :)) A surprising research study showed the correlation between the age of retirement and the average age of death (the study was done in the US). My standard breakfast when travelling. Look what I found in a dusty library :)) Ghalib's grave in Nizamuddin, Delhi. Had a lovely walk in Nizamuddin with the charming Mayank Austen Soofi, courtesy of Hindustan Times :)) My post-workout meal: one scoop of whey protein, 4 almonds, 4 cashews, 1 walnut and occasionally, 1 banana. Our beautiful home. Sometimes, I just sit and pinch myself that I get to live my life. That's it for the week in pictures. Have a lovely weekend and week ahead, all of you lovelies :))) Question of the week

"Your voice sounds so clear and deep. Which mic do you use?" "You have been meditating for so long without fail, which app do you use?" Makes me smile :)) It's the equivalent of me asking someone, "Your book was wonderful. Which pen did you use?" A lot of us are stuck in the wait for the right tools. The right...
I had to ask! When I met my current wife, Ruchi, at the age of 19 while in college, she was way out of my league! I was the super geeky and serious kid.I had strong notions about what is right and wrong.I was too uptight.I would even call myself sad at that point.Too serious. And took myself too seriously. She, on the other hand, was the Shahrukh Khan in everybody’s life.Happy and going with the flow :))Forever smiling.Everyone adored her.Her happiness made everyone else happy around her. We...
If it's just hard work, why wouldn't you do it? Our colony had the Tennis Singles Finals this morning. I lost. While I feel slightly bad about it, I am happy about 2 things: 1/ I didn't play it safe. I played aggressively and took my chances. It's another thing that most chances did not work out :)) But I tried! 2/ I know exactly where I went wrong and what I need to do to fix it. The distance between where I am and where I wish to be can be covered by hard work. You see, a lot of us are...
