I have been away for a while because of lots of chaotic things happening at my place. So didn't blog as frequently for the last few weeks/month. Now I am back! During this period I also lost sheen of my other precious habit of reading. Some research claimed that it takes 21 days to build... Continue Reading →
Mathematics Is Fun!
I like Mathematics and Puzzles and Problem Solving from very young age. Even today I dabble with many puzzles in my free time and I am in fact working on a book of puzzles (well, I am ashamed of saying so, because it's in the making for last 2+ years). Puzzles, riddles etc, if used... Continue Reading →
Atomic Habits by James Clear
One of the interesting books I read this year is Atomic Habits by James Clear. Actually I am not a big fan of self-help, self-improvement books. Certainly not the TED Talk type preaching. And yet there are few individuals I follow and learn from. I liked Mark Manson's blog and also his book "The Subtle... Continue Reading →

Even during MBA I liked the subjects which were extensions of the above i.e quantitative methods, business statistics, accounting and finance. Because those were concrete and deterministic subjects. However... Continue Reading →
Good Read: Are The Intellectual Benefits of Reading Overrated?
Manu Joseph is an interesting writer/columnists/personality. I have not read a single book by him, but have read some of his columns in the Mint newspaper and have also watched few of his interviews. They were really good. A couple of days back I read his latest article in the Mint titled "Are The Intellectual... Continue Reading →
Thomas Sowell’s Basic Economics
Dr Thomas Sowell, Americal Economist born in 1930, is a living legend! In our Economics classes I don't remember our Professors talking about him much. Or maybe they did so in passing and I didn't notice. So I was torally unaware what a genius this man is! I discovered him during last year through Twitter... Continue Reading →
Chat with R. Gopalakrishnan
Algebra is one of the better online platforms/Youtube channels I follow. They do talk shows, 1-on-1 chat with people from various walks of life. Some of them are really interesting and help you discover or connect with new people. Recently I saw one such episode which I am sharing here. It was with R. Gopalakrishnan... Continue Reading →
