Why I linked December with Dessert?

Posted in Life, Musings, My Learning by

When we end the meal with a dessert, the sweetness lingers on our tongue, for some more time. It feels satisfying. I had a terrible 2024 and wanted to end the last month of 2024, doing/learning something for the sake of fun. Somethings feel like therapy. I intentionally visited sweet shops & cafes to lift my mood. My wife learnt home baking of cakes & cookies and I feel thankful for that. Taking inspiration from this blog, casually clicked and shared random beautiful pics. Decided to watch one TED video on photography daily in the evening. Some were pleasing and some showed the difficulties/realities, as shared by photo journalists. The compilation of the talks are below. Also, below are a lot many resources, I found on the internet, which I plan watch later, at leisure. Happy video watching at leisure 🙂

nb: TED encourages sharing the talks, under Creative Commons license. Please refer TED Talks Usage Policy

A wealth of resources on photography, from the internet.

PS: I don’t aspire to be a professional photographer, but like to click random beautiful things that are pleasing to my eyes, using mobile phone. Thanks to my friend Ravisuriya, my school senior Balaji man & Ram, whom I met at Kabini, whose photographic works, I admire.

As we end 2024, I whole heartedly thank my family, friends & relatives, for all the support in times of extreme distress.

My Learning through GIG – Habits

Posted in My Learning by

I had the privilege of being part of an internal GIG, which provides opportunities for employees to gain experience in different teams or business areas, outside of their day-to-day jobs, without moving role. I was hosted, part time by the UX team, to assist them in setting up a Center of Excellence (CoE) for Behavioural Design & Applied Psychology and, learn on the go. Thankful for the opportunity and thanks to Haydyn for hosting me and to my team members Miryam & Vaishnavi.

“Knowledge shared is knowledge squared.” Pleasure to journal my learnings here. This is the fourth post in the series â€œMy Learning through GIG.”
