Episodes

Listen to this if you're the 'anxious' one

June 12, 2021 09:19 - 3 minutes - 4.88 MB

You're the anxious one. Not anxious about things out of your control, but things that are in your control. You take action instead of pondering over your anxiety. You try to work hard whenever you are in the element. But sometimes, you fail. Do you fail? No. That's what you think. In this podcast, I compel (& hand-hold) you to re-thing the same.

The formula to find your passion

June 06, 2021 14:18 - 2 minutes - 3.64 MB

I think passion comes from a combination of two things. Curiosity and being really open to trying something out, and when you find it upto your liking, going all in into that one thing by your own self rather than anyone else having to poke you to do it.   My Instagram: @akshat.do

Do something uselessly amazing, every day

May 12, 2021 13:17 - 3 minutes - 4.41 MB

Do something uselessly amazing, every day. All I wanna say in this über short podcast is, you are a human and you completely destroy the point of being one if you don't do literally anything that comes to your mind. Enjoy! My Instagram: @akshat.do

Please don't read books

May 08, 2021 09:25 - 3 minutes - 4.75 MB

This podcast is for individuals who have lesser time than others. This one is for individuals who have things to get done. For the ones who wish there were more than 24-hours in a day. Don't read books. And in the next one minute, you'll understand deeply as to why not. And no no, this isn't any listen to an audiobook instead of reading books kinda' sh*t. It's some real talk. Pay attention. My Instagram: @akshat.do

The Art of Caffeine Consumption

August 14, 2020 05:26 - 3 minutes - 12.3 MB

Okay, let me set the bar right for this one. I love my coffee- I mean, no I cannot go without it. I, just can’t. Is it a need? Sure. Is it something that I absolutely cannot live without? 100% yes. So I hope I’m clear, I am not going to hate on coffee- I’m here to tell you, how to take it right and maybe feel more than you do, with the same cup of coffee. This quick bite-sized podcast should tell you how much coffee to take in a day, when’s the best time to consume the same and the right w...

The Art of Book Retention

August 04, 2020 15:04 - 2 minutes - 3.75 MB

Regardless of you being an avid or a passive reader, in the course of your entire life till now, chances are, you pondered on the following question- how does one retain what they read? Some of you read one book every 2/3-months, some of us read one book a month, some read one book a week. Regardless of how much you read, there will always be something that you miss to capture from the book. How do we pick what we take home from every book that we read? I mean, a self-help sort of a book has...

thank you, creators

August 02, 2020 19:09 - 3 minutes - 12.2 MB

Here's a tribute, to the art you are in yourself.

How to learn anything, fast

July 20, 2020 17:41 - 3 minutes - 12 MB

Want me to cut straight to the chase? Great, there is no simple answer to this but here's what works for me. Bite-sized learnings.

An Apology.

July 18, 2020 09:19 - 3 minutes - 7.4 MB

I have made a lot of you wait for this voice and all this calmness. Maybe a few of you, that I know personally and don't, are disappointed in the delays being caused in between podcasts and I'm glad a handful of you even took the courtesy to send me really good constructive criticism. But before I start with the revival plan, I owe a sincere apology to everyone who's been looking forward. So, here it is.

The Ultimate Variable

July 03, 2020 12:15 - 3 minutes - 11.6 MB

The ultimate variable- hard work. It's funny to even think of the misconceptions people have of this word. Hard work isn't simply doing more. It means sticking through. And this isn't a slim difference in understanding. It's a massive difference between the two. Instagram: @akshat.do

Printing business cards doesn't mean you run a business

June 25, 2020 10:37 - 2 minutes - 10.9 MB

Authority, to me is such an important concept. Yeah, it's a concept and it's being misused more than anything. This podcast, surely is a little informative and all those fancy words, but I see this getting to me as a rant. And let's start here- printing business cards doesn't mean you run a company.

Anything that calms you down, is your meditation

June 15, 2020 19:36 - 2 minutes - 10.2 MB

What's meditation? Is it sitting on the floor with your legs crossed and deep breathing? To most of us, as we're told, yes, it is exactly that but to me, again, my opinion, it's simply calming your sh*t down. One may do it alone, or in a group, it's all about making your sub-conscious mind, aware of the reality and it's about giving your conscious mind the freedom it requires to be present in the moment.

Making Decisions While You Sleep

June 04, 2020 13:44 - 2 minutes - 10.2 MB

I really thank Reid Jots,  the co-founder of LinkedIn for igniting this thought in me through one of his blogs. A few podcasts back, we discussed how to easily make decisions using a coin flip and for anyone who hasn't heard that one, it's not cliché advice but something that's just so real. I encourage you to listen to it once you're through with this one.

The Art of Starting Over

May 28, 2020 07:08 - 2 minutes - 9.07 MB

Change, is the only constant. Before you think of this as any cliché morning podcast, I just wanna let you know that I am willing to trade in almost anything for someone to have shared this realisation with me if it were two/three years back. If you're listening to this and have not felt this, yet, you can never thank me enough. It's called the Art of Starting Over.

Killing your darlings

May 23, 2020 12:06 - 2 minutes - 5.29 MB

No, it's not what you think and I hope it's not what you wanted. But here's what I mean by killing your darlings. It's a proverb used by legendary writers back in the time and it literally means, giving up things you love. But this, is a completely incomplete understanding of this beautiful phrase. It literally translates into the idea that sometimes, you need to stop doing things you love in order to nurture the one thing that matters most.

Never plan "everything" in advance

May 22, 2020 02:40 - 2 minutes - 9.55 MB

Planning everything in advance, kills potential. In almost everything we do, we seek to have a crystal clear path or try as much as possible to plan out every move of our approach towards a particular goal. It's all good and planning is surely something one must have in place. But never should we ever decide the uncertainties in advance.

Things you're not good at

May 20, 2020 09:39 - 3 minutes - 11.3 MB

You can either listen and try to act on that cliché advice- never give up or, if you want you can do anything, a million others. I'm not against these in any manner but when you know its not working, just acknowledge the fact that it's not working! In most scenarios, you'll see that you've wasted enough time trying to justify your weakness that work on your strengths. Okay so here's how you deal with your weaknesses- you don't. Follow the next two things I mention in this episode of The Teen...

Overcoming Anger {ELITE Edition}

May 18, 2020 03:47 - 4 minutes - 13.6 MB

When's the last time you felt anxiously angry? Probably a minute back. Yes, I did say anxiously angry because anger and anxiety go hand in hand. However, the thing to really notice here is, treating and curing the anxiety of the moment is way tougher than handling the anger. Let's start with the nature of this feeling. It's said that whenever an emotion hits us, namely, anger, happiness, or anxiety, all 300-Trillion cells in our body function and feel the same. Today's podcast addresses exac...

The ONE component that differentiates valuable & mediocre

May 17, 2020 06:42 - 2 minutes - 11.1 MB

It's simple. Doing the hard part. Period

How to make decisions you don't know how to make

May 15, 2020 11:34 - 2 minutes - 10.2 MB

It's already enough, the places where I've heard, flip a coin, make your decision, and don't ever look back on it. Well, I agree to the ideology here. I mean, there is just no point to think so hard over every decision we make and simply, go forward with what we feel like doing. That's in fact the best way to go about it but wait. Flip-a-coin? What are you dumb to leave a decision that was so important & difficult that you had to leave its fate to the gravitational pull of the coin? If you h...

"Good"

May 14, 2020 04:26 - 2 minutes - 9.59 MB

Good- whenever we hear this word, we feel desired or approved of. It reflects that, whatever the word "good" is associated with, is just accepted and appreciated by whoever says this word. Jocko's "Good" ideology has helped him deal with massive setbacks, failures, delays, defeats, and disasters all throughout his life of being a Navy SEAL. He deals with them in a fairly simple way- by saying "good".

Fix to Insomnia in 4-minutes

May 13, 2020 06:02 - 4 minutes - 15.3 MB

It's completely understandable if you're unable to drift off to sleep. But Akshat hold up, doesn't the human body get tired of just 18-hours of being awake anyways? Yeah, it does. But there's more to that & I don't see a better explanation of it than explained in this 4-minute podcast. =)

Consistency or Intensity- Which one and when?

May 12, 2020 09:14 - 2 minutes - 9.04 MB

Every day or every morning? What's more important? It is okay to not be intense or perfect but, one must always be consistent. Consistency, also referred to as compounding in the finance world, helps an individual to keep growing in any given circumstances. Being consistent is very well in your hands and it's the type of thing, that can never slip. However, don't be too hard on yourself for not being at your highest all the time. We're only human, after all.

The Importance Of Detachment

May 11, 2020 04:51 - 3 minutes - 12.6 MB

Detaching from the situation allows you to see the problems and ways of moving forward with something in life. Life or business, one has to step aside from his/her role to assess the clarity of it. It's surprising how many of us are doing things with zero clarity on an everyday basis. I want you to take a step back to take 2-steps forward and think of various aspects of your life from a third-person point of view. You'll find that you've not only been taking meaningless decisions but also ar...

May 09, 2020 03:43 - 3 minutes - 7.68 MB

Has it ever happened that after a big storm passes through your life or every day, you simply start cherishing the good things you already possess? Yes, it has. And it has happened a lot of times.

May 07, 2020 05:05 - 3 minutes - 8.18 MB

The simple difference between successful and happy, and when to choose the one. In fact, one can be both- but which one comes first? Is success derived from happiness? Or is it the other way around? This short episode should give your mind a direction to figure out exactly that.
