Meditations

This fast life is unnatural. Don’t get lost. Remind yourself to step back every so often to take a breather and reflect.

Privilege has shielded you from many misfortunes. Do not forget that most among us have not been thus fortunate. And don’t measure them with the same stick with which you judge yourself or the others fortunate amongst you.

Identify your flaws, be aware of them. And no one could ever use those to harm you.

It’s hard to hear the truth, especially if it can break the illusions that you’ve created within.

Craftsmanship must go skin deep.

Learning to deal with people only improves you by creating an invisible shield to put up when you want.

Sometimes it is all about taming the evil inside you.

I must be afraid of nothing except in doing that which is wrong in a given circumstance.

Let us learn to hold strong opinions but hold them loosely.

It is only natural that there are as many opinions as there are people. We ought to be afraid if it were otherwise.

Why is thinking and acting oneself so hard yet judging others so easy?

There is an inherent beauty in the dullness. It isn’t flashy or immediately exciting. Yet it is rich in learnings, consistent, and never goes out of fashion.

Perfection, when pitted against progress, hinders progress. Its desire can make us abandon our pursuits and only bring despair. However imperfect it may be, be content with little progress and do not delay what you can do in the chase of perfection.
