Inner Musings from Tokyo : February 2021
“Come-on wake-up, this year there is no year-end closing for you”, you are on sabbatical, it’s fine, you can relax, you don’t have to worry about achieving your numbers.…My thoughts started flowing as we are already into mid-March 2021; another financial year-end is about to finish… Yes, I remember now, I am on sabbatical and I don’t have to chase for my year-end closings – That was one life for 2 decades, and it’s different this year – No boss chasing to dump stocks or do a forward sale or incentivize partners to pick-up material – Hahaha, I did all that so willingly and perfectly. While I was working, I…

Inner Musings from Tokyo : January 2021
As I complete 1 year in Japan this February, we thought to start a monthly series about Japan; its daily life, its culture, its food, its unique aspects, its positives & sometimes even its negatives. In this series, “Tokyo Musings”, we will share our thoughts, knowledge, experiences, and insights from Japan with our readers. After staying for a year, possibly I think I understand and know Japan a little better than as I knew as a tourist traveling to Japan… With a base career in India, I have been traveling to Japan for 2 decades now and it had been only short visits of not more than 3 weeks. Again, in…

Life Is An Adventure
When was the last time you went on an adventure? While some of us still see travel as an adventure, for many of us, our adventurous spirit is something that we have left behind in our childhood.

An adventure is any kind of exciting experience that is a bold or risky undertaking. From traveling and exploring new places, to extreme sports like scuba diving, sky diving, parachuting, rafting, mountain climbing, and even changing career path, there are an increasing number of ways to challenge yourself…

Start Day Positive
Mary Poppins used to say, “Well begun is half done!” The way you start your morning can affect your whole day. Outside of a few rise & shine, most of us don’t consider it our favourite part of the day – especially if you stayed up late the night before working, worrying, or wondering. But if you learn how to start your morning right, you can reduce your stress and anxiety and significantly increase your chances of having a satisfying, productive day. Starting your day with a positive attitude has its benefits. Mornings set the tone for the rest of the day. In fact research shows that morning people are…

Hiroshima – Japan’s Peace Prefecture
Hiroshima is best remembered as the first city targeted by a nuclear weapon when the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) dropped the atomic bomb “Little Boy” on the city at 8:15 a.m. on August 6, 1945. Most of the city was destroyed, and by the end of the year 90,000–166,000 people had died as a result of the blast and its effects. In December 1996 at UNESCO’s 20th World Heritage Committee Convention in Merida, the Atomic Bomb Dome was listed as a World Heritage site being a building that communicates the total devastation caused by nuclear weapons. The erstwhile Atomic Bomb Dome was constructed in 1915 and in 1933…
