A Day Rooted in Health and Harmony
My daily routine is a blend of physical well-being, mental clarity, and spiritual nourishment. It sets the tone for a balanced and productive day.
๐ Starting the Day with Vitality
At 5:30 AM, my day begins with:
Yoga exercises to energize the body and mind.

Following my workout, I sit down to read the newspaper, staying informed and reflective.
๐ Spiritual Pursuits
I dedicate some time to spiritual growth, reading devotional books, and listening to soulful songs. These moments of introspection ground me and infuse my day with purpose.

Seeing off my 10-year-old grandson at the school bus bay is a heartwarming ritual that keeps me connected to family. His cheerful goodbye adds joy to my morning.

With a refreshed mind and body, I transition into my office work, approaching each task with focus and enthusiasm.
๐ช Commitment to Health
Throughout the day, I remain mindful of staying active, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and finding moments to relax and recharge.

The Joy of Sharing Wisdom with the Next Generation
Building memories with my grandson adds a personal and heartwarming touch.
One of my greatest joys is spending time with my grandson, imparting values, habits, and skills that will serve him well in life. These moments are not just about teachingโthey're about bonding, laughing, and creating memories that we both cherish.
๐ Lessons for Life
I focus on guiding him to become:

Pilgrimages and Spiritual Journeys Through Sacred Destinations
One of my greatest passions is embarking on pilgrimages and sharing these divine experiences with the world, which creates a natural connection to my spiritual side.
Whether through detailed blogs or contributions to Google Maps, I cherish capturing the spiritual essence of each place I visit. These journeys are more than travel; they are paths to inner peace and self-discovery.
I am excited to celebrate my 70th birthday at the holy Tirumala Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, this year. Seeking the divine blessings of Lord Venkateswara will mark a new chapter in my spiritual journey.
My blog chronicles a cherished experience I had at the Statue of Equality, a celestial marvel in Hyderabad.Visiting this iconic site with my grandson was both enlightening and inspiring.

Empowering Lives Through Knowledge Sharing
As a self-published author, my journey extends beyond selling books online. It embraces a profound commitment to Individual Social Responsibility (ISR) through gifting my publications to educational institutions and libraries.
This ISR initiative began with a heartfelt project at my alma mater, Osmania University Library, where I donated my booksโSelf MOTIVATION 111 and Career Boost: 9 Certification Advantages. These works now inspire students, faculty, and researchers, aligning with the library's mission to promote motivation and career development.
My vision is to expand this ISR project to all institutions I studied in and any I visit as a guest faculty worldwide. Each act of sharing knowledge represents a step toward creating a ripple effect of empowerment. By placing books in libraries, I hope to connect with readers, leaving a legacy of learning and inspiration for generations to come.

GratitudeโA Life Enriched by Blessings
Embracing the Golden Years of a Fulfilling CareerโA Journey of 40 Glorious Years.
Having dedicated my professional journey to the esteemed role of company secretary, I reflect on nearly four decades of meaningful contributions. Since earning my fellowship with the Institute of Company Secretaries of India in 1985, I have served as a trusted key managerial personnel for corporations before venturing into the practice side. This transition allowed me to offer my expertise to multiple companies from the comfort of a home office setupโa space ably managed with the unwavering support of my wife, Lakshmi. Her back-office assistance has been the backbone of our shared professional endeavor.
Today, as senior citizens, we find our preferences and priorities evolving. My passion for writing, going on pilgrimages, and spending cherished moments with my grandson have taken center stage. Lakshmi, now an ardent devotee, devotes her time to spiritual activities, finding fulfillment in service and prayer.
The passage of time has reshaped our ambitions. The drive to earn more money or chase accolades has gently receded. Instead, we cherish the enduring relationships with clients who have trusted us for over three decades. Yet, we are aware that our pace has slowed, and younger professionals now handle routine tasks with greater efficiency and at a lower cost.
In the absence of active marketing efforts and the natural decline in income, weโve arrived at a pivotal decision: to embrace pursuits that align with our current stage in life. From this point forward, our focus will be on what truly brings us joy and suits our ageโa transition from chasing professional milestones to savoring the essence of life itself.
