1. Ageing is a gift, embrace it.

2. Beauty comes in all sizes, shapes and weights, don’t wait to feel beautiful.

3. Be friends with women who know how to enjoy a meal.
4. Cook a special meal for yourself once every week.

5. Self care is not skin care and massages, it’s protecting your bandwidth from getting exhausted.

7. No one and nothing is worth losing your sleep over. Maintain good sleep hygiene.

8. Sex is important. No shame or guilt in being sexually fulfilled. No greatness in sacrificing your basic needs.

9. No is powerful. Say it like you mean it.

In my kind of profession people want to “shadow” you for 10 days or max work with you for a year to figure out what you are all about, highlight that on their profiles and CV and go about their lives.

A short thread on Jinal and Somya ...
In a world where that is default, to find someone you vibe with, grow with and learn with, is a rarity, if not an absolute miracle.

When Jinal and Somya walked into my office, they came in wearing similar clothes; white shirt and blue jeans.
Straight out of SNDT, they had been friends for over a decade and were willing to take the job only if we would work with both. We agreed and it’s been 10 years since.
