Clearing your confusion for better clarity

There's only one voice that matters in the end... Your own!


" People tread only one path with their eyes closed, head bent and in silence... They do not even know, do not even think or do not even ask... Whether this path will lead them somewhere... Or nowhere at all. There comes a turn on the way which is very different from the straight path. Only a crazy person would dare to tread this path... The rest follow the straight path all their lives... Eyes closed... Head bent... In silence... Hurt... Wondering about the turn that passed by... And wondering where that path would have lead... ". This is one of my favourite piece of writing from "Ek Hee Raastha", Gully Boy, a Bollywood movie.

Hello readers! Hope you're all doing well! This blog is all about clearing the confusion in your minds. At all stages of life, we are supposed to make choices. We are supposed to take decisions. And these choices shape our lives. And we all want a life where if we look back at it, we feel content. But how do we do this? With so many people giving as many advice... With so many choices. With so many possibilities! There is one way. The one that matters most in the end. Your own voice!

More often than not we listen to others' voices and even tend to forget we have our own. Background noise overpowers our voice and fades away. We just tend to listen to the "blur" background noise and follow it. It leads nowhere because it lacks clarity... Lacks purpose. What others say about your choices is not false but it is from their perspective... From their experiences. You are the only one that can judge your choices best. What others say might be valid and true... To their cases only. That is what they would have done in the same position... So how do we clear this clutter? Simple... Listen to you... You will live the consequences, not them. You are 100% responsible for your life.

Sometimes we follow it because of various reasons like peer pressure, parental pressure and many others. Again, it is a choice. You can listen to your voice or their's. All said and done when your life is done, you'll have this thought... Regrets to be precise. You will regret what you haven't done more than what you did wrong ! Yes you read that right. So explore, make mistakes, learn and live to the fullest. Fail over and over again... Learn. Try new things. Sail away from the safe shores. I know it seems scary at first. You might do it wrong. But remember that you won't regret it because YOU DID IT!

No matter where you stand today, keep this in mind. Whether you're 20, 30, 40 or whatever age! Follow your voice. You might be wrong. But you won't regret it. You will feel content when you look back. That is all that matters to YOU right? People who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the only ones that do. Who knows what you are capable of? Who knows what listening to your voice would do? I don't know... You might not too, in the beginning. SO JUST DO IT... and see for yourself!

The Importance and Benefits of Mentorship

  We are constantly surrounded by people no matter what phase of life we're in. We have friends, elders, and teachers around us during our childhood. We are surrounded by peers, professors, corporates, or bosses in the later stages of our lives. Have you thought about what impact they have on you and what impact you could have on them? Have you wondered how important this could be? We have all come across the popular saying " Show me who your friends are and I'll tell you what you are." We are indeed the average person of the group or company that we keep. The sooner we realise the astonishing effect the people we surround ourselves with have on us, the better we understand the importance of the right people around us. As demotivating and uninspiring as it gets with the wrong people around, it is also possible to feel equally motivated and inspired around the right people. The Importance of Mentorship The first and foremost step to any change you want to create within...

How startups can leverage Data for Success

“Who is my most ideal customer” ; is the first question every business, product, or service must ask. As a business owner or startup founder, it is important to realise that not everybody is interested in what you’re trying to sell. At the same time, there is a customer base that would actually pay for the genuine problems that they face. If you have the solution, it is important to recognise this set of people as the first step to make sure the efforts are getting the results that you deserve. It is said that 20% of what one does drives 80% of the results ; it is absolutely essential to pinpoint to this 20% of activities and data will help you do it . Analytical CRM for startups If you have a marketing or lead generation strategy, you’re already doing analytics even if you haven’t specifically thought about using data. Data is nothing but numbers and information. A question that all startups need to ask and answer is “how are we doing?” ; this involves analysing numbers an...

Personal Branding for Professional Success

 How to recognise and build a Personal Brand? We have all come across the term "Personal Brand" on various social media platforms through influencers and thought leaders, specifically on LinkedIn. Oftentimes, the way the term sounds makes us feel like it's something big; something that only an influencer or thought leader can have. No doubt that they have a great personal brand but are they the only ones that have it? Weren't these influencers and thought leaders beginners at some point? Didn't they have to build upon their personality to make an impact and build a perception about them? This brings me to the point that most of the attendees in one of my university workshops thought they didn't have a personal brand. The fact that we make it sound big within our mind makes it feel unattainable as a beginner and this is natural. But we all have a personal brand at all points in time whether we know it or not! Very simply, a personal brand is what we're know...
