THE HUSTLE CULTURE! Are you in on it?

                                        

A scenario that might hit close to home for many. Based on true events!

God forbid that one day when you are 50 years old, you are forced out of your comfort zone to go hunting for a job.

You need to be the breadwinner now. So, you head out into the big bad world, hoping that your experience, qualifications, and winning personality can get you something good, something substantial.

But then you apply to multiple jobs in your field, and there comes the shocker. You are judged without being given a chance.

You're met with a wave of rejections, and reality smacks you in your face when those who seem less experienced and perhaps less dedicated than you are, are making their mark in your field.

It's a tough pill to swallow, isn't it?

But here's the truth: the world of work has transformed. The dynamics have shifted, and qualities like hustle, adaptability, and a relentless drive are more crucial than ever. The younger generation is embracing these traits, and it's a reminder that evolution is constant.

To the young souls out there, this is your wake-up call. The professional world isn't just about degrees and paper qualifications. It's about pushing boundaries, seeking opportunities, and working tirelessly to hone your skills. Your journey might not be linear, but your dedication and work ethic can set you apart.

And to those who've been in the game for years, remember that age doesn't define your worth. While the landscape has changed, your experience is a treasure trove of wisdom and insight. It's about embracing change, adapting, and showing that your passion and dedication are as unwavering as ever.

This scenario highlights the beauty of a multi-generational workforce. It's a chance to learn from one another, to exchange knowledge and values, and to create a harmonious blend of experience and fresh perspectives.

So, whether you're just starting your journey or have been on the path for decades, let's come together. Let's recognise that while challenges arise, they also spark growth. 

Let's remember that dedication, hustle, and a genuine commitment to our work are qualities that defy age.

Embrace the hustle. Work your heart out. Be open to change.

CONTRIBUTION OF A HOUSEWIFE TO SOCIETY

Oh I don’t work, I am just a housewife! An oft spoken and heard expression it has for as far as we remember meant that a housewife really is a married woman who sits at home doing nothing much but enjoying her married life. What is even more alarming is the fact that the term ‘housewife’ has offensive overtones for most people. Somewhere till the 20 th Century, in the early 1900s, women were expected to stay at home, and those who wanted to work were often stigmatized. Today it’s mostly the other way round. Across the developed world, women who stay home are increasingly seen as old-fashioned and an economic burden to society. Though there are husbands especially in India who look forward to a warm meal and a comfortable house when they reach back home from work, more and more of them feel that housewives are well ‘just housewives’, a community which is a big burden on society and is at best ignored. With so many confusing inputs I felt I really needed to delve into

STARS CAN'T SHINE WITHOUT DARKNESS

“If I can impact one life in this entire process of speaking up and letting people know that it's something I have been through and something that I could deal with because I had a fantastic support system." …said Deepika Padukone breaking the silence, shame and stigma around depression and anxiety some months ago. According to WHO statistics, India is the most depressed country in the world. At 36% this is the highest rate of depression anywhere in the world. However, mental health is not thought of or given importance as much as physical health is. The shame, the embarrassment, the humiliation people attach to mental illness such as depression and anxiety especially in India, is phenomenal. No one wants you to talk about it, you are not allowed to take medication, what will people say or think, you are going to lose your job, are only some of the things that go through your mind or your family’s when you or they encounter the word “depression or anxie

The Life and Death of a Family and Nation

  “People join the Army and Police to die and are paid to die…” said the self-assured Bihar minister as millions of TV viewers watched aghast at the insensitivity and brazenness of an arrogant politician.    The hue and cry raised over the issue frankly left me untouched and unmoved as do many of the concerns raised by the media and the so called political parties.  Why you may ask am I not angry at the rant of this callous man who feels that people act and behave in a particular way only because they are paid for it? That’s because I have heard it before…from not one, not two but many people who feel that the people employed in the Armed Forces are a blessed lot who party and drink with great gusto and then….well that is all that they do. According to most people (civilians as they are referred to), the job involves ‘free rations, Canteen facilities, cheap and good liquor and subsidised accommodation.’ As an Air Force daughter (21 years) and now a wife (18 yea
