The great scientist Richard Feynman once said: “Religion is a culture of faith; science is a culture of doubt.” If you really want to understand this better, listen to this great talk by Richard Dawkins on "Faith-Based Reasoning vs. Evidence-Based Reasoning". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpAsDnO6UyI
Principles: Thoughts on “Potential to Performance”
I am not an HR guy. I have never aspired to be. However, I did enjoy the HR related courses during my MBA and really liked the Professors who conducted them.

Ship Daily…
I read this interesting Tweet yesterday. In short, execute relentlessly! I think this is my problem area. And probably that of many others. I do the first three fairly well; but falter on "shipping daily" i.e. executing as per plan, every single day. It has to do with habit and discipline (lack of both), rather... Continue Reading →
Good Read: The Price of Certainty
I follow many good people, thought leaders on Twitter. Unfortunately, I also follow just too many people there. So I often miss some of the great posts that appear on my timeline.

Good Read: Rat Race
The Flight landed! Everyone got up & rushed to move out of the flight, they stood for a long time, till the doors opened. If I were a child on my first flight I would have thought "Maybe the plane will take us away if we don't get off quickly or the plane is on... Continue Reading →
Reunion
I came across this lovely poem...one of the few times when WhatsApp throws something worth reading. The heartthrob of the school, is a man grim and somber. That lanky little girl, is now a weightlifter. The topper of the class, is a happy homemaker. Back bencher of the lot, is an entrepreneur. The flamboyant fashionista,... Continue Reading →
