On this episode, Ashdin talks about the moral obligations in our lives, i.e., duties, how we feel we have a duty towards so many people, often even towards folks we haven't met, and how, because of this, the word 'duty' is a very dirty word when used for our loved ones.

Ep. 207: Social Circle Review

Did you know that the origin of the word 'positive' comes from the old French word 'positif', which was a legal word and it meant 'formally laid down' or (in Latin) 'settled by agreement'. The word 'negative' on the other hand, comes from a word that meant 'to deny'. Isn't it fascinating that two words with such different origins are now used together so often. Today, 'positive' and 'negative' can mean many things. They can mean good or bad, they can mean 'yes' or 'no', and so on. We use these words everyday without much thought.

On this episode, Ashdin talks about using 'positive' and 'negative' in a way in which we can evaluate and choose who we spend our time with. Tune in to find out how we can do that.

Ep. 205: Home Office

Did you know that, before the industrial revolution, most jobs were in fact, 'Work From Home' jobs. Think about it - agriculture, craftsmanship, etc, are typically work-from-home kind of jobs.
Today, when we are having to work from home, we are finding it difficult to cope. We do not have the skills required to work from home, as they are a very different set of skills.

Ep. 204: Social Habits During Quarantine

Did you know that the longest solitary confinement sentence was 44 years!
Solitary confinement has been one of the worst ways to punish someone. This is because we are social animals, and we need social interaction to feel happy and to feel alive. As soon as that is taken away, we are left with our thoughts.

Right now, the entire world is in some form of confinement. We've lost our abilities to be free and venture out. We've lost the ability to be social, among other things that we used to take for granted.
Especially if you live by yourself, times like these may be exceptionally tough.
On this episode, Ashdin talks about the social habits we can keep during this quarantined time to make it the most social times of our lives. Tune in to find out how.

Ep. 203: Expert vs Expertise

Did you know that 10,000 hours of practise is what is needed to master something? Malcolm Galdwell wrote about it in his book 'Outliers'.
This idea sounds very appealing and simple, but we must remember, it's not just about the 10,000 hours, it's more about 'deliberate practise'.

On this episode, Ashdin talks about how we should chase expertise, and not being experts. Why is the distinction so important? Tune in to find out.

What's important to note is that the dress code actually made a difference in the productivity of employees. In some creative organisations, a casual dress code increased productivity. Although, in sales, a stricter dress code was what worked.
