Max, Moose, Masha, and ME.

Reshma wanted — needed — to nudge Me a little closer to being perfect, to make Me into a mate who might be flawless and exasperating a little less, She has never bothered to follow the rule and advice book available in the library, The usual nagging of the wife is not her style, for which I was prepared, and I have read all those books, In fact, I can write a book, how to avoid your wife’s advice to Improve…. I am one of those who believe I am the best and need no improvement. Most of our known friends complimented us repeatedly on how well we communicated — our union was better than most. But is she happy??? NO…. Naah Naahhh………. She always wanted it to be closer to Perfect on the positive side of the graph. Then something magical happened…. We decided to bring in Max, Moose Masha into our life… Our three lovable puppies, She is so caring and has been training them so well; she didn’t use the services of a professional trainer, Moose the naughty of three, if he is upset, he would show ...

The Righteous

As they say, there was nothing special about me, I was considered as a normal girl, as you can think off, brought up in a typical middle-class family, I was forced to go to classical dance and music classes, which I just hated but pushed myself to attend a few classes. I was keener towards playing football but for my mother me going to play with the boys was a big NO, so that dream remained just a dream, I don’t blame her those days girls were not allowed much outdoors. I was not a bright student either, they used to refer me as an average student, my mother wanted me to be a doctor, but I was nowhere near to those expectations… So, as they call, I was an Average girl or a girl next door, whom no-one would notice. I had a lot of things to tell, I used to make up weird stories and had very unrealistic dreams and wanted to share with someone, As friends used to feel I was too loquacious, elder brother was always with his friends, outdoor, never sat with me to listen, father was atypical ...

ON YOUR OWN

Most of us have got a lot of time to spare and self-introspect in the last few months, what we have done till now and the road ahead never could have imagined that the freedom one has, can be taken away so soon without even realizing it, A small virus, which is not even visible to naked eyes….  In the last few months, people who I have known both professionally or personally have approached me, asking, if it would be a good time to start a business (could be because of passion or may have been forced due to circumstances). I am no management guru, no expert, but I tried putting 20 years of experience of being on my own, which I have learned, while experimenting, time and again, in few points which may be of some help. As such this could be useful to any business but I have kept in mind small entrepreneurs who would be trying for a business turnover of around less than 10 Cr. It all starts with a dream, to make that difference in the industry, and to achieve the goal, support a team...
