Could be anything. Your work, your workouts, friday night with the boys etc. 
If you've not taken notice of what you like doing, this might be a good way to, and also to hear from positive things that people are doing. 

For me, it's usually the weekly outing with work friends/other friends or just watching an amazing piece of content on the weekends. That's usually the peak. Excited to hear from all of you!

What do you look forward to every week? What makes you feel alive and happy?

What do you look forward to every week? What makes you feel alive and happy?- Grapevine

Want to have a nice weekend, searching for ideas on things I could do to feel good this weekend. Could be stuff to watch, read, or places to go. Or activities I can do. Movies or shows will be the best - or documentaries that you guys have seen recently. 

Let me know people please 🙏

What can I do to feel good this weekend? 🍿

Investment Associate

As most of us look forward to weekend or long weekend, I wanna know what are few things or that one thing u try not to fail in doing such that after weekend u don’t regret that it’s over? It can be as simple as getting a space cleaned in ur home. I am only looking for things that u cannot do on a weekday and so u look forward to doing it over weekend.

How do u make weekend fulfilling ?

To quote Robin Williams - "medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for."

I look forward to the weekly badminton sessions with my friends for two hours on Sundays. The intensity, laughter, sweat and the following conversation in the juice shop. I hope our lives don't take this away from us. 

So outside the typical work, sleep, eat cycle, what feeds your soul?

What feeds your soul?

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Would love to know if there are people out there who don’t get Monday morning blues?

What excites you about the work week, has it always been this way or did you find what you love to work on somewhere along the way?

People who don’t get Monday morning blues, what do you do?

I wait all week for weekend, then realize I just didn't have enough fun on the weekend. What makes a good weekend? How can I make sure that this Monday I go to office feeling like I had a nice weekend. 

Give suggestions please 🙏

How to have a good weekend?

Have a bad week. Your weekend will look better. Your brain thinks in comparatives.

Program Manager

I know most of us don't have a choice as we need to earn to make our livelihood, but what keeps you going day in and day out? Or do you just wait for the weekends. I think very few people get to do what they love doing. So how do you get through the week ? What do you tell yourself ?

How do you guys get through workdays ?

So I wanted to know what kind of things you do  or personality you have after your working hours. Basically you could list down your hobbies or maybe skills you are trying to learn or anything else. Looking forward to some out of the box responses

I'll go first, so I am currently focusing on my fitness, going to the gym and trying to correct my routine to wake up early. Also wanting to learn a musical instrument like a harmonica or a flute but still procrastinating on that one😂.

What do you do after Work

I mean what are some of hobbies that you are doing

be it health-wise, sports, trips, other activity ?

something that add an extra layer of intrest in your life, that break monotonous working vibe 

reduce pressure of always being productive 

Hoping for good variety of answers 😅
something that I can adopt

What do you do other than work ?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Had the Monday blues once upon a time, I have been there.
Working on my own thing, it's just exciting. I know we've all been there. A few energy drinks down, working on something that excites us. 

No toxicity, just love for the work. I hope so many of us find it in this community (if that excites us) 💪🏻

You'll know you've found bliss in life, when you're excited to work on a problem at Sunday night/Monday morning at 1 am.

What are your weekends usually like as a PM?

Weekends

Product Head

Hey folks,
 
Happy friday!
 
What this post is: a place to hang around and chat just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss.  
Think of it like the watercooler at your office.  
 
Look forward to hearing from you all :)

Daily Watercooler (30th June)

If you ask me, the purpose of life has to be more than climbing a self-constructed ladder. 

Like, it has to be more than a 3BHK in a metro, with two kids, a car and a prestigious job at a faceless corporation, 2 weeks of vacation and a movie on the weekend.

Isn’t this weird that, we all continue to fool ourselves? 

When you know nothing matters the universe is yours, and I've never met a universe that was into it. The universe is an animal, it grazes on the ordinary. It creates infinite idiots just to eat them. 

You know? Smart people get a chance to climb on top and take reality for a ride but it'll never stop trying to throw you. And eventually it will, there's no other way off

[Thread] What is according to you makes life worth living?

Remember when you were a kid and had a school trip the next day?    
    
 You sleep all excited, over preparing your bag, snacks, your pocket money and sleep fantasizing the day forward.   
    
 You wake up on the morning. You are excited as hell. Although it's no different than any other day but everything feels colorful. You can't wait to hop into your school bus and meet your friends who are just as excited as you.   
    
 I think what makes life is worth living are these experiences. When you sleep, you have something to look forward to. Someone to do, something to achieve, something you truly enjoy or be passionate about.   
    
 If you are just going through days fixated on the coming weekend or planned holiday. That is when things get a little messy.   
    
 I'm in that zone right now. I try to seek the satisfaction and happiness inside of me. So I don't depend on materialistic or emotional to feel lively. It must come from within and its damn hard to cultivate.   
    
 When I'll have that I'll be off from this corporate for good. .

Product Manager

Hello good people, 

What's the vibe going into the weekend? 
Let's use this space maybe for plans you have, stuff you're planning to watch or do, or just share how few people have turned up to office today. 

Also, if your manager denied your leave request 🙈

Look forward from hearing from you all :) 

Best,

Hey everyone,  
 
Similar to yesterday this is a place to hang around and chat just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss.  

Think of this like the Watercooler at your office.  
Look forward to hearing from y'all :)

Daily Watercooler (14th June)

How’s it going everyone? 
Hope you all had a decent week and have a more than decent weekend up ahead. 

Just making this for any casual conversations that don’t belong in another post: something that happened this week, something the boss said, plans for tonight etc 

Comment away :)

Watercooler: End of the week casual chat (30th Aug)

What's one thing that you look upto with curiosity, even now, like you used to do in your childhood.


It could be playing Sunday matches, meeting someone special, going to a special place, it could be anything, where the interest didn't fade away with time and responsibilities.

Hello people, 

Nearing the end of the week now! Thinking I'll prepone Friday evening plans to Thursday evening for good measure. 

Welcome to the watercooler: the place for any conversations that feel a bit small to create a dedicated post. Manager acting weird today? Ended up being really late to a meeting and got bad looks? Need movie recommendations? This is probably the place for it. 

Look forward to hearing from you all :)

Dive into any good books? Or perhaps you found a new favorite spot in the city?
