Hellbound: A story of oppression through thrash metal

Thrash’s newest release “Hellbound” is a meticulously articulated narrative on oppressive establishments of authority and social hypocrisy, which is done using a character named ‘Bagha’ acting as a ‘Dervish’ (a member of a religious order, who has taken vows of poverty and austerity). The song alludes to how individuals denying religious and social stratification for good deeds are subjected to harsh repercussions for defying social norms or prejudice.

Can you overcome rejection?

Can you overcome rejection?

It is always difficult when someone turns you down and says ‘no.’ Be it a personal favour or a business pitch, it can be hard swallowing rejection. Sometimes, it is because we fear being rejected because of internal shame or embarrassment, or because of the way we were brought up, we sabotage our own relationships and opportunities which would be good for us. So, to learn how you can accept rejection, it might be worth trying to understand why you fear rejection in the first place.

Building a successful hybrid workspace

Building a successful hybrid workspace

The term ‘hybrid workplace’ refers to a business model that combines office and remote work. A core group is usually required to be present on site while everyone else is allowed to work from home or both. Sometimes, employees may be required to attend in-person meetings on a certain day of the week. Instead of organising work around set office hours, the hybrid workplace typically gives employees the freedom to fit work around their personal schedules. For many workers and employers, it strikes the perfect mix between efficient work and less stressful living.
