Mind-Set and Match!

Hey Folks! I'm pretty sure that the few readers I have will be surprised to see another post this quick especially after a few posts earlier this week. This post is about mindset - something central to my formula of success. The title does have a hyphen (-) between 'mind' and 'set' which sure must have intrigued the reader I believe. The hyphen separating the word 'mind-set' is there just to bring a tennis reference. The phrase 'set and match' is commonly used in racket sports and this is a tribute to my love for tennis. As someone whose formula for success has mindset as a key component, I feel I'm in the best possible situation to highlight its importance. I hear a lot of people talk about the importance of mindset and I agree with most of them.  Throughout my educational life, I've always had the mindset of 'I can do this, no pressure' and this has always worked for me. In all the exams I had taken - except my CS Executive exams -...

Hey! Welcome(back) to my blog. I hope everybody is doing great and having a wonderful time. I'm back with another post after posting a couple last week. Surprised? Stay here to find out. This post is based on a recent feeling or thought I had a few days back. Usually, I refrain from posting about the nitty-gritty of my personal life and about my emotions.

I didn't pay much heed to it initially, but it kept provoking a response from me. I still didn't budge and went on about my routine. I always stare at the ceiling of my room for a minute, thinking about my day and how I can do better the next day. This memory acted as a hindrance, and I h...

Reaffirming the Why!

Hey! Welcome back to my blog. I'm recovering from my illness and should be back on my feet within a couple of days. In the meanwhile, I thought of addressing a question which has been irking me for some time now. Why am I doing this - writing blogs at a time when AI has taken over the writing space? In the era of multiple sources of income, why am I spending my time on something that is guaranteed not to return anything? My mission from the very beginning has been very straightforward - improve my language and expression of emotions and also carve out a niche for myself and create a space where I don't have to think much before writing. While things around me have changed, I have been committed to my goal and don't see myself giving up that easily. Over time, the methods, the expressions, the words - all have undergone drastic changes. Changes so stark that differentiating between two writings would be a stroll in the park. From writing simple, short sentences to writing co...
