Movies to watch

Ek Doctor Ki Maut is not a film that tries to win you over. It confronts you, exhausts you, and then leaves you alone with uncomfortable questions. This monologue sits at the core of that discomfort not as an emotional high point, but as a slow, suffocating unravelling of a system that crushes individuality while pretending to reward merit.

The film operates like a closed room: bureaucracy, ego, suspicion, and power circulate endlessly with no real exit. What makes this monologue devastating is its restraint. There’s no release, no catharsis. Just a man articulating what the film has been showing all along that truth, in rigid systems, is often treated as a threat rather than a virtue.

Ek Doctor Ki Maut refuses the comfort of heroes and villains. Instead, it exposes how institutions function through silence, paperwork, and slow erosion. The monologue doesn’t seek sympathy; it documents defeat. And that’s precisely why it lingers.

Decades later, the film feels eerily current. Not because of its plot, but because of its understanding of power, how it survives by exhausting those who question it. Some films age into nostalgia. This one ages into relevance.

Not just read

  • Read to understand, not to finish – because content is unlimited, and you can’t finish all even if you want to.
  • Understand because brain remembers meaning.
  • Memory is built when you actively try to recall the information, not just when you re-read it. Recall signals to the brain that the information is important and should be saved.
  • Why read? – Read to remember what you read and let it change your life.

Scrolling vs. Slides

— Posted inUncategorized — 1 min read

Why do smartphones and websites prefer scrolling style to slides?

Scrolling makes content engaging and user keep scrolling for more and more in the hope of reaching its never ending dead end. Whereas, slides format is more eye friendly. It’s like flipping a page.

I prefer slides for:
1. It’s easy on eyes.
2. Slide no. can be specified like 1/10, 2/10, and so on, so user knows how much is left.
3. Scrolling cause eye fatigue as text slides, making it harder to focus.

Even reels are in the slide format (though vertical), that’s why they are more popular than the ‘for you’ page where reels are scrolled.

Thoughts while reviewing suggested answers of Advance Accounting IPCC ICAI Sept. 2025

  1. In reality, accuracy cannot be checked. If a particular transaction hasn’t been tagged to a particular segment, then it’s impractical to check all the thousands of transactions at the year-end to check if those were properly tagged. It would cost much higher than the benefit. What all can be done is checking is if there is proper system that ensures proper tagging to the transaction at the data entry stage. If the system is not there, it can be implemented.
  2. Segments are reportable or not as per accounting standards is a secondary matter. First, transactions must be accounted separately for all segments. Without this, reportable tests cannot be done.

  1. The right assortment.

  4. Associates on the sales floor who want to take care of customers.
  5. Associates who have been trained properly in terms of product knowledge.
  6. The expectation that our associates will be there when the customers need them.

  1. It’s not a value until it costs you money.
  2. The one-man show doesn’t scale. Pat Farrah was brilliant at fixing things himself, but he never learned to teach. When you know how to do something and don’t share that knowledge with someone else, you’re stealing from your company.
  3. Companies are built on instincts and opinions.
  4. All the time you spend replaying the past comes at the expense of focusing on the future.
  5. When it comes to people, look past the resume and at their heart and soul.
  6. You’re never as smart as you think you are.
  7. Outcome over ego. All the time and energy you spend trying to prove how right you were in the past comes at the expense of building the future. Revenge costs everything but pays nothing.
  8. Great partnerships aren’t about being the same; they are about complementary force. You don’t need two pitchers.
  9. Hire people better than you. “Why have I been successful my whole life? Because I’ve always surrounded myself with people who are better than I am.” Don’t just hire good people and let their potential go to waste. Challenge them to surpass you.
  10. Growth comes from obsessively solving the problems of the people you failed to serve today.
  11. The money is the scorecard, not the motivator.

You no longer need to follow the herd.

Every time someone disapproves of you, your brain registers it as a survival threat. Evolution wired us to believe that rejection equals death. If the tribe kicked you out, you didn’t survive the winter.

But the world has changed. Being disliked is necessary to live a meaningful life.

The cost of making decisions to please others instead of yourself is misery.
