Best wishes to all civil servants for their coming endeavours.

The confusion in choices lies between better and best, not between good and bad. Whatever we choose, there seems to be something better. Use intuition to make your choices, and once chosen, accept it and move forward.

You're not too busy for self-care. Feeling overworked? It’s a sign that you NEED to prioritize your wellbeing—not an excuse to neglect it. Burnout isn’t a badge of honor—it's a symptom of unhealthy habits. Busy can't be an excuse. Wellness IS productive work.

Stop seeking attention from everyone. Focus on doing good work from your heart. When the time is right, you'll get the attention you deserve. This is how you move from duality to oneness.

It is a matter of understanding Our investments can be classified broadly into two categories 1)     Lending 2)     Owning If you go and deposit Rs.10 lakhs in SBI, from your perspective, it is a safe investment. You are right. What you consider as a ‘deposit’ is actually lending money to SBI. The bank in turn lends the money to many others; the difference in interest spread (what it pays you and what it receives from the borrower) being its income. If you buy Rs.10 lakhs worth of shares of SBI, you become its (part) owner. You share the profits or loss of the bank in proportion to the shares owned. As a lender, you are assured of fixed interest. As an owner, no such fixed interest exists; but you tend to make more money than the fixed interest if the bank performs well. When you invest in small savings; you are actually lending to Government of India. Of course there is no option to own the government. We are comfortable in lending to businesses but not owning them. Isn’t it paradoxical? We would lend to someone only when we are confident about repaying capacity. Repaying capability comes from economic performance. When we are sure of the economic performance and lend, then why we hesitate to own? If Tata Motors comes with a debenture paying 10%p.a tomorrow, I’m sure it would be over subscribed and not everyone may get allotment. Look at this way. If Tata Motors is willing to borrow from you at 10%, then Tatas should be confident of earning much more than 10% from their business. Would we not be making more wealth by owning Tata Motors than lending to it? Though we are an entrepreneurial nation (may be forced, because of lack of employment opportunities!), we are more comfortable in lending to a business then owning it. When we understand equity investments as part ownership of businesses and not a mere stock ticker in the bottom of the TV screen, whose price changes every minute, that is the essential and most important thing in investing. You may think what I’m saying above is very basic. You’re absolutely correct. The more I interact with people; I find that there is lot of confusion on basics. It is a matter of understanding.
