How AI Is Changing Work, Creativity, Habits, Money, and Relationships

Are you someone who constantly turns to ChatGPT whenever you have a question, a problem to solve, or just need advice? If yes, trust me — you’re not alone. Over the last few years, ChatGPT and other AI tools have quietly become a part of people’s everyday lives. The biggest reason? They’re always available. They don’t judge, get tired, or lose patience. Unlike people around us who may sometimes criticize, misunderstand, or simply be too busy, AI gives instant responses in a calm and conversational way. That’s why so many people are becoming attached to it — not just for information, but for support, productivity, and even comfort. In many ways, AI is giving ordinary people abilities that once seemed impossible. Tasks that used to take hours can now be done in minutes. Difficult topics can be explained in simple words. Students use AI to study better, professionals use it to write emails and reports, and creators use it to brainstorm ideas when they feel stuck. It has slowly become ...

Everything I Didn’t Expect About Self-Publishing…

-
Image
Publishing a book is a very big deal, especially in this overpopulated, internet-savvy world that we live in today. As writers, we want our books to be read by many people, whether they are hardcover or paperback editions. We want our stories to exist out there in the world. One thing about publishing with a traditional publisher is that writers often have to wait for their manuscripts to be approved by literary agents or publishing houses. Only after acceptance can the process of editing, design, printing, and distribution begin. But self-publishing is different. When you self-publish your own book, you have far more creative control. Not only do you get to see your work transformed into a physical book, but you also gain access to platforms such as Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing, Amazon UK and USA, Flipkart, Notion Press Store, Apple Books, Kobo Books, and Google Play Books. Isn’t that incredible? A book you sat at home and wrote can suddenly become available to readers acros...

The Voices That Redefined Womanhood in Indian Literature

-
Image
When we hear the word author, we often subconsciously imagine the writer to be male. Genres such as science fiction, classic literature, and non-fiction have historically been associated with men, while romance and young adult fiction are frequently attributed to women. Yet, some of the world’s most extraordinary literary works have been written by women — many of whom challenged traditional expectations surrounding marriage, identity, and womanhood. These trailblazing female voices include contemporary storytellers, Booker Prize laureates, poets, and novelists who have shaped both regional and global literature. Among the most celebrated women authors are Jane Austen, Emily Brontë, Ayn Rand, Toni Morrison, and J. K. Rowling. Their writing not only entertained generations of readers, but also reshaped conversations around women’s emotional, intellectual, and creative independence. One of my personal favourites is Danielle Steel, a globally influential bestselling author known for...

Trying to Stay Kind in a Selfish World: The Truth Nobody Wants to Admit

-
Image
Honouring your own needs is not selfish — it is necessary. In many ways, learning to protect your peace, your energy, and your emotional well-being is one of the greatest lessons life teaches us. We often grow up believing that constantly sacrificing ourselves for others is what makes us “good” people, but the truth is far more complicated than that. Prioritising self-care means respecting your own boundaries and acknowledging your limits. There is a significant difference between being cruel and being healthily selfish. Cruelty is often rooted in insecurity, ego, or the desire to control others. Healthy selfishness, on the other hand, comes from self-preservation. It is about recognising that your needs matter too. People often treat selfishness as though it is automatically a negative trait. But not all selfishness is toxic. Sometimes, being “selfish” simply means saying no when something drains you. It means walking away from situations where your boundaries are constantly ig...

My First Attempt at Writing a Light-Hearted Experience of Living with Epilepsy

-
Living with epilepsy is strange because most of the time, nobody can actually see it. To everyone else, you look normal. Functional. Fine. And then one day your brain suddenly misfires, your body betrays you, and people around you panic while you’re left trying to piece together what just happened. People think the seizures are the hardest part. Sometimes they are. But honestly, the harder part is living in the uncertainty of it all. Explaining what it is. Not knowing when your own brain might decide to stop cooperating. Explaining epilepsy is exhausting too. The moment you mention it, everyone suddenly becomes an expert. Someone tells you to sleep more. Someone else suggests yoga, turmeric, herbal tea, positive thinking. As if generations of neurologists somehow forgot to try drinking enough water. People mean well, mostly. But after a while, it becomes lonely trying to explain that epilepsy is not just “stress” or “being tired.” It’s a condition you carry every single day, eve...

The Fun Gen Z World Vs My Times - The Millenial Generation

-
Also known as the trial version of modern adulthood, millennials — the generation I proudly belong to — genuinely feel like the best generation by far. We were raised in the chaos of the early internet, where there was zero supervision, one family computer shared between siblings, pop-up ads attacking us every four seconds, and an unshakable confidence that everything we did online was absolutely correct. It was a strange, beautiful time. The internet back then was wildly different from what it is today. If we missed one episode of our favourite TV show, that was it — gone forever unless someone miraculously recorded it on a CD or knew a cousin with cable. There were no streaming platforms, no “watch later” options, and definitely no rewinding emotional scenes to post screenshots online. Today’s Gen Z generation can stream entire seasons overnight, fast-forward boring parts, rewind dramatic moments, and curate their feeds so perfectly that even their breakdowns look cinematic. Aren...
