“The decisions you make now can be changed, but take years & years of hard work to redo it and in those years you become someone different. Everybody does as time passes. You get married, you get into debt, but you’re never going to be the same person you are right now.

Promise & potential, it’s very fickle and it just might not be there anymore.

All I’m saying is you’re an adult now and adulthood, it starts before you even know it starts, when you’re already a dozen decisions into it.

But what you need to know , no lifeguard’s watching anymore, you’re on your own, you’re your own man and the decisions you make now are yours and yours alone from here till the end”

I think it’s called an epiphany. It’s a midweek holiday today. I’ve done nothing constructive all day and Robert Redford’s words in Lions for Lambs are chilling.

I’ve noticed I hate talking about work anymore. Not because it’s that bad, it’s because it makes me think- think about what I am doing ( or not doing)

I hate thinking about my further education plans because they make me think- about what and who i want to be. I’ve developed an inertia towards thinking and an even worse one towards doing.

I want to learn to play guitar, lose 5 kgs, play football, go to my hometown Pune every weekend, prepare for my GMAT. Yet i had a whole day and wasted it. Have i lost the hunger ? Did I ever have it ?

Promise and potential are words that have been attached to me, yet never achievement. It has to stop.

I’ll be 23 on 31st May and although it scares me to say this, I am an adult now. No lifeguards. My own man.

Quarter-life Where-What-Why-sis has set in & it has to be attacked & conquered.. & I hope this blog can play a part.

Case in point, I don’t ever want to have a “boss”. So be an entrepreneur then.  Total no. of business ideas I’ve developed in Life Q1, ZERO.Developing, dissecting, discarding business ideas-on this blog. Entrepreneurship not all its cracked up to be?  Lets hear it.

MBA or MS,   iPhone or HTC Diamond,   Centipede- 100 feet ? ( I’ll explain in another post )

Sports bar in Pune-viability,   MBA in India or abroad-Return on investment,

Job after degree- How long ? ,   Guitar-the best way to learn?

Learning Chinese-worth it ? ,   The World is Flat- Yes/No/The book is too long,

Lindsay Lohan- really a lesbian? , the save-the-environment economy- how long will it last

Just a cross-section of the issues & non-issues we might address as the SLC gets older

I want SLC to close out one-by-one, all the issues minimized to the back of my head,  which altogether contribute to The Crisis-  from the big fat Career-Money-Love stinkers to the Lindsay-lesbian-wow-types.

I’m  looking to add more contributors to this page from different backgrounds to get the best spread of topics & a more all-round view on issues. Do write in or send me the links to your blog that you feel are already helping solve the great Where-What-Why-sis affecting me & similarly afflicted people everywhere.

So lets kick QLC ass people!

To be super corny, out with quarter, in with smarter.

Cheers !
