Right, Wrong; Good, Bad; and Correct, Incorrect

One of the discomforts that I am forced to go through is seeing people taking umbrage at the bold statement that one man’s right is another man’s wrong and that wrong and right are subjective. Is this true? Good and bad also get buffeted by similar linking and callous hits through the open justification thatContinue reading “Right, Wrong; Good, Bad; and Correct, Incorrect”

Knowing the Truth

The most difficult task in life is knowing the truth. Many may dispute this statement by saying that there are even more difficult things in life. An aircraft pilot or astronaut, for example, could say that the piloting job involves understanding the intricate dynamics of physical laws, hence, is the most difficult one. A heartContinue reading “Knowing the Truth”

Man is not Even Small Enough

We often come across people who gloat over the mountain of knowledge they are carrying. There are others who compare themselves as better folks than everyone around. Some others go to the extent of feeling that they are polymaths who could answer queries of anything and everything. The breeds that think that having higher physical strength orContinue reading “Man is not Even Small Enough”

Problematic Perspective for Living Better

Many of you may find the blog title intriguing, and there is no wonder in such a thought as man is used to seeing problems as troubles in his way. However, I am trying to look at problems in a unique way which is hard to practice but possible to do as we all didContinue reading “Problematic Perspective for Living Better”

Abundance

What is the least abundant part of our knowledge base? The unobvious answer is the knowledge of abundance. Man is mostly oblivious of the fact that nature has bestowed everyone with abundance — of invaluable, immense and unlimited resources that are capable of providing him with progress without having to vie with his fellow beings.Continue reading “Abundance”

Selection

People answer in different ways if we ask them, “What is the most likable thing about social media?” Knowledge acquisition, new information, friendship, pastime, etc. are some of the answers that will come onto the table. Though I, too, like these things of social media platforms, the most I liked is something else. WhatsApp, oneContinue reading “Selection”

Determination: the Invisible Element in Decision-Making

There are many factors that are characterized by different people as the most important things in life, and a few of them are love, living in harmony and happiness. Though there exists cross-linkages — like one leads to another, mutual inclusivity among these factors — each one of them exists on its own merit, meaningContinue reading “Determination: the Invisible Element in Decision-Making”

Competition or Complementarity: Which One to Choose in Unavoidable Interpersonal Relations?

At the outset, I make a bold statement that being complementary is the only way to sustain interpersonal relations. The term: interpersonal relations that I use on this blog refers to personal relations that are unavoidable. We are caught between two competing forces: competition and complementarity as we wade through interpersonal relations, and these twoContinue reading “Competition or Complementarity: Which One to Choose in Unavoidable Interpersonal Relations?”

Imaginary Fear

The most enticing thing in the world is success, for it is the culmination of man’s aspirations. So if you ask me, “What do you want in life?” my answer will be, “I want to succeed in life.” There are well-known and non-negotiable ingredients of success which, if man puts into use, will ultimately leadContinue reading “Imaginary Fear”

Credibility

The last thing a man wants to lose is his credibility. But, is it that which gets his first priority? If credibility is not the first priority for a man, then it cannot be that last thing to lose. In other words, credibility is not an accident but a default output of deliberate and consistentContinue reading “Credibility”

Ease of Doing Life

Many of you will be familiar with the term: Ease of Doing Business, or E.O.D.B., an index that measures regulations which directly affect business. It has ten subindices like starting a new business, dealing with construction permits, getting credit, etc. with which the regulatory framework — hence, the consequent easiness or lack of it —Continue reading “Ease of Doing Life”

Mental Atrophy

In Biology classes, students learn a phenomenon called atrophy, which is physical organs losing their functional value due to the decay of their cells arising from constant non-use over a prolonged period of time. A few years back, I read about an incident of a Romanian girl who was chained down for a large numberContinue reading “Mental Atrophy”

Inherent Differences of the Astonishing Similar

There can be similarities between two things or two persons but never sameness. For example, even when they have so much morphological similarities that make them not easily distinguishable physically, identical twins have two physical marks: retina and fingerprints whose scrutiny can reveal their individual identity, hence, uniqueness. Uniqueness is the nature’s way of tellingContinue reading “Inherent Differences of the Astonishing Similar”

Rio de Janeiro

There is no exaggeration that Rio de Janeiro is known as Cidade Maravilhosa or Marvelous City as it is one of the most beautiful cities in the world! Its magnificent mountains dotted in the vicinity of beautiful beaches are enough to justify the marvelous nomenclature. I was fortunate to have visited the city two times,Continue reading “Rio de Janeiro”

Simple, Complex and Complicated

On facebook, I come across people who show their relationship status as “it is complicated.”  It is a fact that this is a willful selection by them as facebook does not give it as a default option. So being in a state of complicated is man-made. Why does not facebook have a status option of “itContinue reading “Simple, Complex and Complicated”

Proportionate Growth – A Learning from International Business

James Allen is one of the thinkers who influenced me in a big way, and his thoughts are pearls of wisdom — detailed in his book: ‘As a Man Thinketh — which played invaluable contribution to my life’s progression. Amongst them, this one: “Man is a growth by law” has profound meaning. In this aphorism,Continue reading “Proportionate Growth – A Learning from International Business”
