What was the best phase in your life?
The best phase in my life is right now because I feel energetic and healthy.
How do you feel about sharing your password with your partner?

I have never had a female best friend. I am not sure how that would work without feeling attraction.

What’s on your bucket list this year?
My goal is to exercise for an hour a day, meditate for an hour, and write one thousand to two thousand words a day. I don’t have a bucket list.

Meditation is like flossing. A must.
I learned TM in 2013 but started daily practice in 2020.
I dont know if Indians cry in public or not. It could be cultural. We are not emotional.
Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?
It depends on the situation. If someone is trying to bully me, I would consider crying as a weakness. We often cry when we are happy too, tears of joy.

What do you wish you spent more time doing five years ago?
When I quit my job in 2012, I thought my life would change for the better asap. My mistake was wasting a lot of time hanging out with friends. We hung out for like six to seven hours at a time! I was reading books and experimenting with my health issues. I wish I had exercised every day instead.

I don’t buy clothes often. I like the idea of reducing decision fatigue by not worrying about what to wear daily. I now wear orange shirts, so I bought a bunch last time.

Would you rather trade intelligence for looks or looks for intelligence?

I like American values.
What do you think your role is in this world?
My role in this world is influencing others positively, but not everyone. There are sides, and I chose mine. I like to do my best and develop as best as possible before dying.

What is your personal philosophy in life?
I try to do my best every day. I can feel it if I let myself down. My personal philosophy is to keep myself happy.

What are you afraid of?
Jews. ;
What is the most surprising fact you’ve learnt about yourself?
I was super negative-minded as a child, and as I become more of a positive thinker, my life gets better. The most surprising fact I learned about myself is that I have a say in how my life proceeds. The way I think affects everything else.

The last time we played Bluff with friends, I won 15 out of 20 games.
What makes you the happiest?
I love to get the weekly Grammarly tone emails to see how I did. I love to write and zone out to music. I love to be in forests and nature.

Do you think money is important?
Yes.
What do you think makes a good leader?
I care about the whole person, like Phil Jackson with his teams.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years’ time?
I expect to be in a much different space than I am now in five years because I am exercising every day and writing as much as possible. I will also have five more years of meditative practice under my belt.

I was obsessed with blogging since day one. 1995-1996.
Writing. Web publishing.
I love listening to music and making playlists.
Why are you passionate about what you do?
Over time, I found things I enjoy doing. Of all the things you could do, there will be a few things you love the most. Your passions choose you, as Jeff Bezos said. You don’t choose your passions.
