Level up your career with insights, inspiration, and support from your fellow go-getters.

Career Growth

I worked in a company for 20 years and suddenly put off role. Searching jobs I realised I am over age for various roles that I could do and less experienced for Leadership Roles as my exposure was limited. I always thought I am earning decent money and can work another 7 years and retire at 50. Though the younger generation is much smarter I still want to advise them (BFSI specific)
* Work in a role for max 2-3 years and switch when you feel you are done.
* By age of 30, if you are still earning less than 10 lakh you are not growing 
* By age of 35 you must become AVP as no company will hire AVP if you are more than 36.
*Be loyal to your self, not your organization. 
* Most importantly save atleast 30% or more of whatever your CTC. Donot spend much with every raise. 
* Buy a property, and pay loans before 35.

In tough times it's only Savings that give you cushion and peace nothing else

Loyalty vs Company Mindset

Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

going above and beyond isn’t always acknowledged as expected. I completed a two-day costing task in a single day, thanks to the solid training from my past mentors. Yet, a simple “Ok, thanks” from a sales colleague felt underwhelming. It made me reflect on how often R&D efforts in costing and formulation go unnoticed by other departments. Still, I choose to see this as growth — every effort adds to my journey, whether it’s recognized or not. This dedication may open doors, either here or in future opportunities elsewhere.

Today’s experience taught me a valuable corporate lesson

Aviation & Aerospace

Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla is now orbiting earth on a spaceX crew dragon, marking India's first privately backed human spaceflight mission! 

Unlike the 1984 mission, ISRO is partnering with axiom space and spaceX as equals. Shukla's experiments in space agriculture, muscle regeneration, and cognitive performance will directly contribute to India's Gaganyaan program.

By 2027, India aims to launch its own astronauts on its own rockets from its own soil. This shift opens doors to microgravity research, international partnerships, and commercial space opportunities in the $400 billion space market. 

Jai Hind!

After 41 years, the Indian flag flies in space on an astronaut's suit.

Personal Finance

I wondered if saving was even possible.

Spent:
Rent ₹12k
Food ₹8k
Netflix & travel ₹3.2k
Emergency ₹2k

Saved the rest ₹24.8k:
₹10k in SIPs (ELSS, large-cap, mid-cap, gold ETF)
₹14.8k into emergency fund

6 months later:

Returns: 8–12%
Portfolio: ~₹1.9L

SIP = habit

Emergency fund - ready

POV:
Even on ₹50k, if you stay disciplined, saving ₹5–10k/month is absolutely doable.
