SETTLING INTO MY NEW ROLE IN THE COMPANY
Some 6 months ago, and after a lot of campaigning, I was moved to a new role within my company. This role was larger, more strategic, and honestly more to my liking. Even though I have done this sort of work in my past companies, every new organization has its own unique challenges. That’s why I have been taking my time and gradually building the foundations for this role to be successful. For me, and for any number of successors who will join this particular role in the company after I leave. That’s my style actually. I like to solve problems for the future, as well as for the present.
BUILDING MOMENTUM IN MY FITNESS JOURNEY
2025 was great as far as consistency towards fitness is concerned. For the first half of the year, I focused heavily on strength training and hit the gym quite regularly. I was tracking every single workout and had a target to do 200 gym sessions. I did not hit my target and went into a slump between July & September. But starting October, I began my yearly ritual to train for a marathon. Though this year I did not enroll for any actual marathon, but I forced myself to train only at zone 2 and build my aerobic base, basically running really slow all the time. Last 3 months of the year I clocked some 35 runs, which is pretty good for someone who struggles with consistency. In 2026, I want to enroll for martial arts training as well as dance classes. Not only will these help me with my fitness but they’ve also been a long time desire for quite a while now.
THINKING ABOUT SHIFTING HOUSES
I moved into my current house some 1.5 years ago. This house is everything I ever dreamt of. It is big, it is super well maintained, it’s modern and aesthetic, and I have truly made every single corner my own by putting the right kind of furniture, decor, appliances and accessibilities. Basically, I love my house. At the same time, I also feel that I’ve outgrown this particular place. I feel the need to be closer to my loved ones. And closer to the hustle bustle of the city. And that cannot be possible by staying in this particular place. Hence, I am thinking very hard to either move back with my family, or to get a new place in central Gurgaon, the heart of the city.
