Bolognese and $10k MRR
I’m in my bed, showered, moisturised, ready for tomorrow and wrestling with a rather difficult question. Should I use Wispr for writing these blogs? Something tells me I should not. But then, am I being purist to the extend of my own downfall. I can’t stand that in others. How dare I allow that for…

Guess who’s back?
Hello, hello! I spent 2.5-ish days writing my annual stakeholder report this week. And my top realisation was that I had not written much this year. Online. Or for myself. Or documenting lessons/progress at work. And the consequence? 2025 feels like a lost blur. I know a lot has happened. But here’s the thing —…

Weekend tak to idea die-down ho jayega
I started writing this at 11 AM this morning. But thanks to some coffee, good sleep and no calendar in place for the day, I monkey-brained the day away. So now, it’s 12:41 AM, I’ve tried to make some cold coffee and splattered it across the kitchen, and I am here. On my favourite blue…

Lately, I’ve been excited about…
Hello, hello! It’s been a while that I came back here. Things have been like things are — good, bad, simple, the usual. My days have a certain sense of routine now, which I like. I wake up by 6:30 or 7. I’m working by 8-ish. Lunch is 1 PM — I try to eat…

Freshly minted graduate
Hello, hello 👋🏼 I’d been waiting for this week to come by for the last 3 years. I am now done with college. Monday, the 5th, was the last day of exams. Followed by one last college party — and perhaps my first. Or maybe, second. 6th onwards, I’ve been going around town, carrying a…

Do things everyday
It’s March 26, 2025. I will turn 23 in exactly two months. That’s a serious age. In two more years, I will be 25. That’s more demanding. Greater expectations. I’m not scared of it. Hopeful actually. Now I don’t think I have made something worthwhile of my life so far. Or satisfactory. But I’m confident…

A ton of things are begging for my attention but first we write.
October 21, 2024. 7:51 PM. I’ve been having a ✨ moment ✨ with my life. For the last few weeks — a couple of months, to be honest — I don’t think my head’s been in the best shape. I keep trying to work on things and choose better and be kind to myself. It’s been on…

Lemon Rinds
The opening line for yesterday’s unwritten, unpublished blog post was – “I have just had Butter Chicken; the light in my room is a warm yellow; life feels good.” But I could not get myself to writing it. I did write an equally lengthy mail/report to @Saurabh though. To which he (basically) said: If you can write…

Stakeholder Report: July
Time flies faster than all fairies and all witches. Especially if you have fallen off-track. Which is why it helps to have a self-reporting structure in place. These Stakeholder Reports are mine. I like to write a long-ish update + send it to every single person I know. Last month’s report is here. Each edition has…
