Completed 3.5 years in Delhi

Time just flies may be a cliche but it’s also the truth. There were quite a lot of risks I took in coming to Delhi – I didn’t know the language, I was leaving the security of a corporate job & moving to be an independent contractor, and most of all getting into government consulting, which in India is sickened with red tapes and pedantic bureaucratic processes. Yet I took it.

These years have been awesome in my life. On personal side, got two amazing kids; and on professional side got to work with some of the brightest minds in India. Importantly I played whatever role I could play in aiding corporate growth & governance in India. Never dreamt of it. (I also realised Rani has more faith in me than I).

But after 3.5 years I am wondering if it’s time to change. Unlike earlier times, where I would feel distinctly about the impending change, this time I don’t feel anything about change. But I contemplate change – whether it’s induced by anxiety or familiarity, I don’t know.

Since I am not sure if the change, I also don’t know if I should go back to Bangalore or stay in Delhi, but look for a different engagement. I pray that in the next 6 months, I will have bit more clarity.
