Be your own man!
“Live upto your potential instead of imitating someone else’s.” I was recently reading the book ‘Elon Musk’ by Ashlee Vance which is a sort of biography covering Elon Musk’s life in detail. It is an interesting read and provides an insight into Musk’s life and journey so far. I was highly impressed by Musk’s intelligence and knowledge, but even more so by his charisma and his almost superhuman ability to get the best out of colleagues, achieving impossible feats in the process.

The ‘move’ to update your CV and start looking for that dream job, the ‘move’ to set the alarm for 5 AM everyday and go for a run, the ‘move’ to execute that business idea that has been sitting in your…

How to Become a Badass?
“You only live once. You might as well be a Badass.” Every once in a while you come across a person who leaves you awestruck and impressed with the way he carries himself, the way he acts in any situation, and the way people treat him. He (or she, since such people come in all shapes, sizes and genders) is the one who makes you feel that he has total control over his life. Nothing seems to be impossible for this real life Superman. Heck, it appears that if needed, he could look a tiger in the eye and make it pee in its pants(if it was wearing one), by…
