It’s the new year – I will not make (brittle) resolutions but shall strive for the following:
EVOLVE: Through deep reading, and exposing myself to art, culture and literature in a planned manner.
WRITE: More books, and meaningful content on digital and traditional media platforms.
GIVE BACK: By encouraging others to lead enriched and creative lives. And share any knowledge, experiences and tips that may be relevant for those aspiring to achieve such goals.
GET BORED: By simplifying life, somewhat if not totally like in times past. Minimise usage of digital devices, so I am not hyper-connected and seemingly always-at-work. Wondrous ideas emerge in a state of boredom only.
MINIMIZE: Purchase and ownership of material goods. The exercise started in 2025 – will clear more spaces around me, not filling them with fresh shopping.
PERSONAL WELLNESS: I felt jolted on October 14, 2025 to be precise – since then I am watching what I eat and drink, and exercise when the polluted air of Delhi allows. Also sorting things in the head and heart for overall well-being.
