Wow! July’s almost over. And honestly, it was like a blink in the eye! Have I accomplished anything spectacular? Nope. There’s a lot left to be desired. Speaking of which, isn’t it strange that we desire so much yet fail to do anything about it? And we know that’s partly due to our belief that…

I’m not a big fan of the word “dignitary.” I think it’s a useless identity for someone’s worth at the expense of people who’re still growing.

“It takes a village to raise a child,” says an African proverb. But this child is you. It’s me. It’s our loved ones. It’s the ones we know. This child grows up to become a dreamer. Just like us. She has outgrown what the village has to offer her. And she leaves the village one…

Isn’t it weird that we fight, argue and complain how chaotic an environment can get for productivity and thinking, only to miss it’s when it’s totally silent? It was a long workday yesterday and I decided to stop by Starbucks to wind down my day and reflect on my wins and learnings from the past…
