Welcome to the Soya Says Blog, where I dump all my random thoughts and experiences (you’ve been warned!). From travel stories and tech musings to life lessons and brutally honest opinions, this is my space for conversations about things that have shaped my perspective. No grand agenda here, just stories and ideas that felt worth sharing.
Let’s cut to the chase right away, I had a spare day in Bombay. Mumbai, if you prefer, though most of the folks I met seemed to lean towards Bombay. I have been to this city a bunch of times in my childhood, so the usual tourist spots had zero
Have you heard about the 90-9-1 rule of social media. Might sound like some secret code but its all about understanding who’s who in the realm of social media. Picture this: you’re hanging out on your favorite social media platform, scrolling through posts, memes, and videos. Guess what? The majority,
They can be. But the more appropriate term for a vlogger is a ‘content creator’. In the World of Internet, there is a not-so-fine line between a Content Creator and a Business Owner. A Content Creator’s work ends at the content itself. A vlogger is essentially creating content. He may
Innumerable youtubers out there are creating content everyday to help you make your phone buying decision. Still it is not uncommon for people to overthink a mobile phone purchase. If you ask me in person, I will just tell you – Buy the phone that matches your vibe If you
I rarely take any days off in the last week of December. The primary reason for that is the fact that everyone else is out anyways so I don’t feel like wasting my leaves on days when there’s no work to begin with 😉 One thing I always ensure though
Let’s cut to the chase, There was a time this year when I was running pmclounge.com – making videos, writing articles, doing social media, doing project mgmt. consultations, sending newsletters, conducting classes & everything else you can think of that is required to run a YouTube channel. AND also making
Of course this is totally subjective. It is subject to whether someone else is evaluating you if you are good enough or if you are doing it yourself. The problem with answering this question yourself is that most of us, most of the time invent or decide the measurement criteria
Before you jump to any conclusions, I am not talking about LinkedIn becoming the Grand Central of hate where arguments on politics and religion is a common sight. I am talking about the mighty algorithm. In the early and mid 2010s, ‘internet marketing gurus’ specializing in Social Media Marketing (SMM)
Before we dive in, here’s what comes to mind when I think of the term ‘glory days’ – The glory days. Those school years. The school that felt like a second home. The friends we thought would always be close. That first crush. The feelings tied to all those unforgettable
When I was preparing for my MBA entrance, we used to have mock Group Discussions (GD). A teacher once told us how GD was actually an elimination round and not a selection one. So, you could be the best speaker in the group, but that doesn’t secure you a seat;
By definition, a solopreneur is, a person who sets up and runs a business on their own. This definition still has traditional hues to it because it centers around the word ‘business’. Rather than defining a solopreneur, it tries to draw a line between an entrepreneur and a solopreneur. Someone
At this point, its like beating a dead horse. I have talked about the Final Chapter of Facebook and how Facebook is dead. So why am I writing about Facebook yet again. Well, other than the fact that this is my blog and I can write about “What’s on my
Ever had that moment when you hear someone say, “If my stomach could talk, it would ask me to stop eating sugary, salty, or junk food!” I mean, who hasn’t, right? We’re all aware that junk food is no saint when it comes to our health, but let’s face it
I am not exaggerating but if I don’t have access to my To Do list, I wouldn’t know what to do with the entire day. I am equally dependent on my work calendar but that’s a topic for a different blog. As a lifelong To Doer, even before I had
How true is the Oscar Wilde quote – “With age comes wisdom”? Is every elderly person wise? Is it possible that sometimes age comes alone with no wisdom to offer whatsoever? You will usually find Wisdom defined as, the ability to think and act using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense
In one of Seth Godin’s blog, he talks about how Social Media is only a symptom and not exactly a tactic. I generally agree with most of what Seth Godin says and he has a fantastic example to support this claim, The Mona Lisa has a huge social media presence.
You can walk into a project and give your 100% effort. You understand that a project is a collective effort and that’s why you expect everyone else to give their 100% and do their bit too. You cannot run the World but surely the World knows you’ve put all your
I usually do a video when talking about a book that I really like. But this time, it’s safe to say I was left speechless after reading “Raag Darbari.” (Hence, no video this time! 😊) The book had been patiently waiting on my bookshelf, and I finally took it out
“Spend Your Money On Experiences, Not Things” – Internet How many times have you come across this line or some other version of it on the internet? You can surely thank the Tourism and Hospitality industry for it. After all, it’s this industry that makes a profit when you plan
I have a Project Management website. A YouTube channel accompanies it. They are both called PMC Lounge. PMC stands for Project Management Certifications. The reason I bring all this up as an introduction to this blog is the fact that these days we are covering Agile topics. And before you
1. Those who are in super hurry “Only 1 hour to go, we need to rush!” 2. Those who are in no hurry at all “Relax, we have 1 full hour before the flight leaves” It could be surprising that both of them are catching the same flight and have
I recently blogged about The Big Picture. But then I had a follow-up thought. It deserves a blog of its own. So what if we have the big picture and it turns out that it is not something we want? What if we don’t like what we see? Our first
There is a fantastic couplet by Dr. Rahat Indori, Dhundhte-dhundhte ek umr guzaari jiskoWo agar saamne aa jaye to paagal ho jaaun You can watch the entire ghazal here The lines talk about searching one’s ladylove for ages and going crazy at a mere sight of her. But the point
My friends would know that I recently became a dad to twin girls. Congratulations and best wishes came from all directions and I am very grateful for that. But some of my friends are, let’s just say, very innovative in their wishes. A friend who knows that most of the
How many times have you gotten this advice? How many times have you given it to someone? How many movies and Instagram posts can you recall that advocate “follow your passion” as the only way to achieve anything meaningful in life? As cliched as it may sound, this is one
Let me spill the beans about a daylight robbery 😉 Few years ago, social media marketers asked their clients to spend money on facebook ads buying ‘likes’ and ‘followers’. Having page likes and followers was what it was all about. Enter the facebook algorithm change. The focus shifted to ‘engagement’.
One of my best friends once called someone a Bhayyu (भय्यु). To set the context, let me tell you that Bhayyu isn’t really one person. Bhayyu is actually a very specific category of us, Indian men, who are perpetually single and have a very low probability of changing that relationship
This is one those Urban Purush blogs that you’ll find around here. These are gems I wrote for the Urban Purush website Alright gentlemen! So we understand its all over and its painful. If its not painful then this isn’t a blog you should read. Go out and have fun!
The single biggest reason this blog took so long to come to fruition is that I wasn’t able to decide whether I should be doing a blog for each country I visited or just cover everything in one post. I figured that a lot of stuff could be repetitive and
Gentlemen, a legend once said, Being a male is a matter of birth, but being a man is a matter of choice! You’ve been a male by birth for years and now its time to become the man. It starts with making better choices, good job with choosing to read
We all know someone who has had a breakup or even a divorce. I know you came here to see what this blog has to say about marriage, and I started with the ‘breakup and divorce’ holler right in the first line. Why? Because you may not want to get
This is one of those typical Urban Purush blogs that women won’t have any interest in. I hope that serves as a fair warning 😉 As men, we do realize between the two sexes, we are the ones that are more hairy, sweaty and stinky. 😒 However that doesn’t mean
Not like the company is dying. Infact even after the recent privacy concerns, Cambridge Analytica scandal and the rise of Instagram and Tik Tok, facebook still remains one of millennials’ top choices to announce their marriage, birth of a child and vacation checkins. Now I know most of my readers
That’s the most usual comment I get during the holy month of Ramadan. I have been fasting the entire month of Ramadan since teenage. And let me admit, I don’t remember losing any weight at the end of the month ever! Infact there are instances when I actually gained 😁
Clickbait! 😜 Chances are, if I know you I follow you already. I am (thankfully) not one of those that lose sleep on their following / followers ratio. Infact here’s a bit of stat, the average number of followers for a personal Instagram account is 150. ‘Personal Instagram Account’ being
Some of the life defining decisions that teenagers and young adults make are related to career and studies. Choosing your major subjects, college or graduation stream, preparing for campus placements, higher studies or competitive exams are some of them. While in school, I always had a knack for mathematics. So

‘Alpa kichu‘ means ‘little bit’ in Bengali. When you’ve already had loads of sweets, ‘alpa kichu‘ is also how you convince yourself for having some more of those Bengali delicacies. It is thus impossible to come back from Kolkata without gaining ‘alpa kichu‘ weight 😁 Anways, let me get down to
I was in IIM Calcutta recently for a residential training program. It was quite an experience. The best part of this program being residential is that the classes are in the same building where you put up. So, you aren’t spending any time commuting. You are also spending whatever free
Gentlemen, a suit is one of the most coveted pieces in every man’s wardrobe. Don’t believe that? Custom clothier H.M. Cole once said, A well-tailored suit is to women what lingerie is to men. Considering the importance of a men’s suit, additional attention should be given while making the purchase decision.
Style and fashion are usually used interchangeably but are the two terms really same? If not, should you be more stylish or more fashionable/fashion forward? While that is a personal choice, let’s look at the difference between the two. Going over the literal meaning first, Style – The way in which
Gentlemen, I assume all of us agree on the fact that shoes are important, they matter, they need to be paid attention if you want to draw attention! If you still don’t agree, here’s an article that you must read first – Shoes. Why do they matter? There is a very
Around 2013-14, Taxi4Sure was a major competitor of Ola. If I remember correctly, it was also comparatively cheaper. Their phone number was also pretty easy to remember. Infact when you called them, you were greeted by their peppy jingle which was basically their phone number turned into a song –
Long flights are a pain. Much worse than long trains actually because you can never get down from this giant aluminum tube and roam around like you would on a train journey. There are definitely a few things you can do on long flights and there certainly are a few
Ever been on a really long flight? More than 12 hours? It can be a very draining experience to say the least. Before hopping on one, I read a few very lame suggestions on things you can do on long flights (including getting sleeping pills prescription from your doctor!). None

For an average person working in the IT industry, the United States of America is also known as “Onsite.” And the average IT professional wants to be onsite, preferably permanently 😉. This involves a lot of discussions with higher management and might include pleading, scrambling, clawing, and every other tactic
To set the context of this blog, let me cite a relatable situation. On my recent trip to Dubai, I observed how jam-packed the metro train gets, specifically during the office hours. Equally crowded are the metro stations. Still the folks waiting to board the train stand in a queue
I have too many pictures of Dubai to share and couldn’t include all of them in the original travelogue. So here’s presenting just the pictures, Check out the Dubai Travelogue Dubai Travelogue Playlist –
Let me start this with a question. What are the top 3 words you associate with Dubai? (Tall Buildings? Shopping? Rich Arabs? Habib- Habibi?) Let me ask another question. What are the top 3 words you associate with vacation? (And this will obviously be different for everyone. Some would say
दुबई घूमके वापस आ गया हूँ. अपने एक्सपीरियेन्स का ब्लॉग लिखूंगा, फोटोस भी शेयर कर दूँगा. पर 4 घंटे की फ्लाइट में कुछ हिन्दी में लिखने की इच्छा हुई. हिन्दी शुरू से कमज़ोर है. दसवीं में हिन्दी के अलावा बाकी सब सब्जेक्ट्स में डिस्टिंक्शन मिला था. ख़ैर इसका दुबई
We have all been there. We have all seen the ‘Sharma ji ka beta’ memes. Chances are, we have been compared to a ‘Sharma ji ka beta’ in our childhood at least once. Be it the usual exam scores or any of our ‘bad’ habits. For those of us that
If you have no idea what this blog is about (and you didn’t care to play the video above), let me start by letting you know how you can read my ebook – Doctor, Love. It’s actually pretty simple, you can get your copy here Alright, now that we have
“More than 5 years now.” I quickly answered after a small calculation. But the next question was surprising. “How can you measure your experience in terms of years?” Dumbfounded. I had no idea where this conversation was heading towards. So, I smiled, waiting for an explanation. “Your experience cannot be measured
Let’s cut to the chase. You are here because (hopefully) you are interested in my first attempt at writing a small e-book: Doctor, Love! So let me try and give you a quick glimpse. Doctor, Love is a story of Tanya – a young, passionate, career-oriented Doctor in Delhi. She
For those of us that do not blog, do not have a YouTube channel, do not post much on social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram included) – all this ‘sharing’ could just be a waste of time. This ‘waste of time’ is often attributed to ‘you can eat your food
Let me admit this before we start – I totally love it when I get an email or an instant message from someone asking anything about my blog. Ask someone who blogs, what could be more fulfilling than someone actually reading it! 😁 I have earlier blogged about the top
Yes Sir, this is the blog I did my first facebook live video about 😊 But since my blog has a much larger audience than my personal facebook, here’s the blog! To begin with I must say there are tons of advice available out there when it comes to perfecting
There goes a saying: “A person who doesn’t read has no advantage over a person who cannot read.” Well, technologically speaking, that isn’t true. *Nerd Logic Alert* There are audiobooks and software of all kinds out there that can read a book for you regardless of your ability to read.
If you are an MBA, someone, somewhere, at least once, must have asked you, So what’s your startup idea? With the words like ‘entrepreneurship’, ‘venture capital’, ‘seed funding’ and, of course, ‘startup’ appearing almost everywhere from TV to Newspapers and from Facebook feeds to YouTube videos, it is almost a
The only disclaimer I would like to add before I start this blog is that it’s my blog, you have read the title and you are the best person to decide if you want to read further 😉 Also, there are all kinds of people in every office (and everywhere
If you personally know me, you already know that I am into running. I have been using the Xiaomi Mi Band for quite some time now and although I don’t really review products on my blog, I would really like to give you a quick overview of this handy fitness
In one of my previous blogs, I did share the absolute #1 fat loss tip but in order for everything to work, you also need to make sure you are in your fat burning zone. Nutrition is the other important thing. In this blog, I am covering the fat burning zone.
As someone who has clocked close to 1000 kms and burned more than 65000 kcal in the process (thanks to Endomondo for the stats), I feel worthy enough to share some pointers on running. To be frank, the aforementioned stats are nothing compared to some of the marathoners that I
Let’s get straight to the point. You know the question – What is the #1 thing that you should do to lose some fat? The answer is in the math – Burn more calories than you consume! An average man requires 2500 kcal and an average woman requires 2000 kcal
Thanks to my PMP certification, of late I have been approached on all kinds of platforms by a lot of people for a little bit of guidance on clearing the exam. But this blog is not about all of that (I am anyways available to tell you about it, if
Let’s get a few things straight, A person who prefers a vegetarian or vegan diet can be a true and practicing Muslim. (S)He can fulfill all his or her religious duties. It is NOT mandatory for a Muslim to consume non-vegetarian food (Since I don’t like Mutton, I usually get
So the dhols have stopped, the decorative lighting is off the house, the relatives have departed and you have either already scooted on your honeymoon or waiting for the photographer to share the ceremony photos. Those photos will either be subjected to a careful scrutiny before 10 of them go
I am someone who likes to use Facebook solely for social networking and staying in touch with friends. I can totally understand if you decide to “unfollow” a few people from your friends list because of their burning, politically motivated, and toxic posts. The central theme of such posts is
There comes a time in everyone’s life when looking at the mobile phone notifications just doesn’t suffice. We battle that situation, we change the phone’s wallpaper, lock screen, ringtones and even the good ol’ back cover. All of this only to give the phone a fresh breath of life. This
In 2009, a Salman Khan flick named Wanted crossed 100 crores in business. Let’s be honest, it was a game-changer. In Wanted, ‘Bhai’ went shirtless, flaunted his 6-pack abs, beat the sh*t out of goons, cracked some jokes, romanced the girl next door, danced like only he can, portrayed his
Yes, the title of the blog does imply that this is my 50th blog post! If you personally know any blogger, you know that making 50 posts isn’t a big deal. Bloggers blog all the time. Bloggers usually blog in a specific domain. Bloggers make a living off their blogs! For me,
The word ‘commitment’ may mean different things to different people. For a 15-year-old chap, it may just be a word his girlfriend repeatedly uses to bring some legitimacy in their relationship. For a 25-year-old girl, it could be a decision to get married and for a 35-year-old man, it could
I promise I will keep this blog as crisp as possible and my assumption is that you already have the basic information on PMP (like experience and PDU requirements, different PMP books available out there, contact hours, PMP certification cost, PMP exam format, PG-KA mapping etc) I highly suggest you go
In continuation of my original blog – Maldives, a reminder that 70% of Earth is Water, here are some more pics from the trip 😉 Check out the Maldives Travelogue Maldives Travelogue Playlist –
Maldives is essentially a group of very small islands. When I say very small, I mean so small that the airport of the capital city of Maldives (i.e. Male) is out of city on another island also known as Hulhule. So basically when you arrive in Maldives, you are on
You get a strange feeling when you’re about to leave a place… like you’ll not only miss the moments you cherished but you’ll also miss the person you are right now… because you know you’ll never be this way ever again… No, I don’t want to get sad and all
As Digital India dawns upon us, we Indians are having a great time tri-coloring our facebook profile pictures. Then there are some who do not align with all this pomp and show, those who think changing the profile photo with the colors of our flag means supporting facebook’s pet devil
This is not one of my usual blogs. This will be meaningless and you are not going to see a point. This won’t be funny. This is a tale which isn’t complete. The intention of this post is yet to be established. Or there’s none. Nothing to prove. Nothing to teach.
I was recently invited to attend a blogger meet organized by Flipkart. Headed by Flipkart’s Chief Product Officer Punit Soni, I was one of the 120 odd bloggers who were given a demo of what Flipkart seems to be riding high on these days – Image Search. Image search is

It’s June. The month when roughly 15 lac engineers graduate in India every year! Let’s understand what are their plans ahead. But before that, there’s one thing that I have noticed about working away from home. I know this could be a bit out of the blue but please bear.
If you are someone who lives alone, far away your from home, there is one question you have definitely been asked by every new person you meet, “So do you cook yourself or how do you manage?” Legit question! And if you are someone like me who can only cook
This is one those Urban Purush blogs that you’ll find around here. These are gems I wrote for the Urban Purush website Isn’t the main function of shoes just to cover your feet and protect you from the seasons, the roads and everything else? Some 5000 years ago this was probably true! Gentlemen, in
This is one those Urban Purush blogs that you’ll find around here. These are gems I wrote for the Urban Purush website Gentlemen, accessories are extremely important and one should think of them as the accessories on a car. A brand new car looks incomplete without some accessories and wrong accessories are going to
This is one those Urban Purush blogs that you’ll find around here. These are gems I wrote for the Urban Purush website Wearing shoes without socks is in.

What comes to your mind when you read the sentence, “Dress like a man”? Probably suit up or make an effort to look good? Whatever that comes to your mind, if it’s anything less dressy than what a woman would think on reading “Dress like a lady” then you’ve got

Gentlemen, when was the last time someone appreciated you for your new shirt or shoes or anything else for that matter? Long time? Yesterday? Doesn’t matter, what matters is the fact that a single compliment can make your day and more so if it comes from someone of the opposite sex.
Rant Alert – Some readers may find this blog a piece of rant, readers’ discretion advised! Just like most of the millennials out there, my first phone was a Nokia. And unlike most of them, every new phone that I bought after that has been a Nokia. It was only

It all started with an invite to connect on MySpace sometime in the latter half of 2004. I was a class 12 student and fairly aware of the internet. I distinctly remember my first hotmail account, Yahoo! messenger, chatrooms, “asl?” and those ‘Cyber Cafes’ much before MySpace came around. But
Thanks to our camera phones we tend to click any and everything we find different, unusual, out of ordinary or just ordinary. I always wanted to do a photo blog about these not-so-important clicks. So without much of writing, here are the top 5 random pics from my phone 😀
Bore hone ka time kahaan hai. Duniya mein itni baatein hain, itne kaam hain, itni cheeze hain ke agar koi sachmuch interested ho to phir bore hi nahi ho sakta. Loosely translated to – “Who has the time to get bored. There are so many things to talk about, so

Ever wondered how many tweets you read or how much time you spend on facebook everyday? That’s a rhetorical, I already know your answer, Don’t give me that ‘waste of time’ sh*t. I spend a lot of time there and I like it and I don’t care if you think

‘Apps’ is the buzz word these days. And more so if you own a smart phone. When I thought of writing a blog on apps, I figured it will be a lot easier to segregate them on the basis of the mobile operating systems. So here we will have a
Dabangg, starring Salman Khan, was the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2010. While it definitely had the advantage of the Eid holiday, there were several other things that really worked in its favor. Oh, and by the way, I am serious about writing this blog on Dabangg, so let’s dive into

The 2-day annual event of PROTON business school, Unison 2010, is now over and it ended with the rock band Tapas playing the theme of ‘Saare jahan se acha hindostan hamara’ on guitar. I don’t think there could have been a better ending to Unison than that. I was fortunate
“So how’s life?”“These days are so boring yaar”“Kyu? Any problem in the office?”“Arey nahi, the temperature is rising, there are no good movies coming up and on top of that, all you see everywhere is cricket, cricket and only cricket! I hate IPL and I really hate Shah Rukh Khan!”
Here’s the question – Should you start a blog? Ever wondered how many blogs exist on the Internet? Technorati claims that there were 112 million blogs in the year 2007. More googling shall reveal that by the end of the year 2009 there were as many as 126 million blogs on the Internet. Basically
