The best tonic for your mental health is having a kind boss. Even in the most high-profile assignments, when my bosses have been bad, I have hated the experience. And the other way around. Everybody can be kind on a good day. But can you also be kind on bad days?
“A student, filled with emotion and crying, implored, "Why is there so much suffering?" Suzuki Roshi replied, "No reason.”
Three things you should absolutely look for in a job (other than salary 😊): 1. Does the job build up your confidence or weaken you with constant micromanagement, nit-picking, and unhelpful criticism? 2. Does it allow you to build your health and fitness? For that, it should…
If you want to get rich, earmark 10 years. You might scoff at this and say, "What about that EdTech founder who sold his company to Byju's in 2 years for 2,000 crores?" Once in a while, some people win the lottery, some find oil in their backyard, and some can even sell a soap…
Two kinds of businesses don't need to earn their living (i.e., be profitable): 1. Public sector units 2. Heavily funded startups
Nobody gets up one day and says, "Let me become a drug addict." Nobody decides one day, "Let me start eating junk food, and become obese and unhealthy." Nor does anyone decide to become a chronic procrastinator, Netflix binge-watcher, or a smartphone addict. And yet, many of…
In 2010, at an investor event at the Oberoi Hotel in Mumbai, I was dazzled by a company called Opto Circuits. Their polished presentation, storytelling, and impressive product display left no doubt that a medical device giant was emerging from India. The founder won the ‘NextGen…
The biggest killer of productivity is not laziness -- it is anxiety. You can have the greatest productivity software, but if you are anxious, you can't get anything done. Here is why. To do any thoughtful work, our brain's pre-frontal cortex (PFC) has to do the problem-solving,…
Most professors teaching leadership in B-schools have never been in the hot seat or held leadership roles. Most consultants advising companies have never worked in business roles (I was one of them). Most people mentoring startups have never done startups. What does it tell…
We think we want money. But what we really want is for our days to be happy and joyful. We want to love the work we do. We want good relationships. We want the freedom to spend our time the way we like. We want good health and peace of mind. In short, we want a good life. But…
A friend of mine was once interning with a major Wall Street bank. One day, on a Friday evening, his boss asked him to make a presentation and share it by Sunday, ensuring that his weekend was ruined. My friend did not understand the urgency but there was little he could do. So…
In 2008, I had a lunch-cum-job interview with a very successful New York-based fund manager, who had made hundreds of millions of dollars from investing. I asked him, "What has been the hardest part of your job?" He said, "There was a time when for two years, I had nothing to…
Long ago, a friend who took the NDA/military career route was telling me about the bayonet charge routine in the army. In a bayonet charge, you run towards and attack an enemy bunker typically defended by a machine gun firing 10 bullets per second. What are the odds of making it…
I hate cowards. Yet, on a few occasions, I proved to be one. When I launched my first startup, I built a product that found zero customers -- zero revenue. Something was wrong. Maybe the product was wrong. Maybe, I had no idea how to market. (Now I know that it was the latter.)…
There is nothing you can't get better at. But conditions apply. For any kind of learning, be it a physical or a mental skill, our neurons have to rewire -- it is called neuroplasticity. Our neuroplasticity is extremely high in pre-teens and remains quite high till age 25. After…
