Privacy is an illusion created between those with the power and those without (Modified quote from the matrix). The only difference between piracy and privacy is power, the power of bringing down the world on knees. Recently, what’s app announced the revised privacy policy, and people went crazy.

There is a new kind of addiction in the market, which is known as motivation and it’s like small doses of chocolates every day and you never get to know that you are addicted, perhaps that’s the beauty of motivation. People may argue that being motivated is not a bad thing but being over motivated […]
Great Expectations
I may have copied the title from the book of Charles Dickens but it’s got nothing to do with the book. Great expectations lead to disappointments and plausible explanation could be, we don’t expect what we want rather what others want. Why we expect? Sometimes we feel that we have put efforts in something and […]
Reality is often disappointing
In Avengers infinity war, Thanos said to Gamora, “Reality is often disappointing”. Indeed the reality is often disappointing, although the context was different in the movie because people tend to avoid reality and no longer feel tempted by it. Reality is nothing but all existent physical form in the whole universe. We often believe in […]
Equality becomes Gender Equality!
Once upon a time humanity and equality co-existed during the initial evolution era of homo sapiens (Humans) and their only purpose was survival, they indeed survived from animals, climate, hunger, scarcity of water and many more while being together in a group. Humanity means having human qualities and equality means supporting and providing equal opportunities […]
Freedom of Internet
We live in a cynical world and obsession of the internet grew faster when India got freedom from the 2G network. I still remember when the internet was a huge big deal in India, way back in the early 2000s. In the early 2000s, social media was brand new to Indians and in a small town where I spent […]
Skepticism
Skepticism runs in our blood Why would I say that? Because skepticism is an attitude of doubt or means lack of sureness. Earlier it was used as uncertainty of knowledge, suspicious about faith in religion, unwilling to believe hypothesis but now it has become the inability to make a decision. According to me, Skepticism is […]
Pretentious Acting
You can pretend to care, but you can’t pretend to show up – George I. Bell. Great acting makes people super successful. The best part about acting or pretending is that it is so convincing, we often forget that Christian bale is not the real batman. If you want to be a batman in real […]
Happiness
If you want to be happy, be – Leo Tolstoy. Happiness is like an impeccable haircut, which does not last long. Eventually, your hair will grow unevenly, and you will feel less happy unless you embrace the hair. Happiness is the byproduct of gratitude, and we must not chase happiness like I chase Scarlett Johansson […]
Not Good Enough
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” Eleanor Roosevelt We are living in a world where celebrities don’t feel good enough as they have to be more than that. They need to be a political activist, social activist, and philanthropist. So do we feel that we are good enough? The answer probably […]
The Secret of Stupidity
“Stupidity is the deliberate cultivation of ignorance – William Gaddis”. With great stupidity, comes a great certainty of happiness. Stupid people are the happiest people on the earth, and for them, every other person is stupid. They are the most fun, and when you talk to them, they will never bore you. They carry a […]
The Great Gullibility
“When emotion supersedes reason …gullibility must follow – Barbara Mertz” Common sense is very uncommon in the modern world, and everything which can’t be understood leads to gullibility.

The Surreal Success
“If you want to be successful, find out what the price is and then pay it”– Scott Adams. The topic of success has been gaining mainstream attention, and nowadays, every other book is based on the concept of success. The million-dollar question is, why it is hard to attain success in real life? Success is […]
Recency Bias
“Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it” -George Santayana. History repeats itself because we forget past very fast and assume that it has an insignificant contribution towards the present or future. People commit such mistakes more often. Importance to recent events over historical events leads to a recency bias. Why […]
Comparison of Unequal
“Comparison is a slippery slope to jealousy.” Danielle LaPorte The comparison starts with doubt, whether you doubt yourself or others. It is indeed a double-edged sword, and you can’t swing when you are in doubt. We always compare apples vs oranges to arrive at a decision – Which is better? Why do we compare? Well, […]
