Nirav posted 10 questions that got me thinking and I thought it would be nice to share my thoughts and get you guys thinking too. 1. How much money you spend per month? All my expenses go into my black diary so I have a good track of my money. 2. How long you spend [...]

This ad is today’s edition of Bombay Times. Although I have always loved Femina’s – The Woman of Substance branding, this one left me a little baffled today.

What really inspires me when reading about these successful people is the struggle they go through fighting off every battle with great determination. One also notices that success lies in tapping [...]

This post is more like a comment to poor_planner’s Caffeinexperience. It turned out so long that I decided to post it here.
