I've been working out of Tilak Marg 66 for a long time now. It’s a solid old building and my space is just enough for what I need to do every day. Dealing with paperwork and meetings takes up most of my time, but I try to keep a bit of a routine. The morning starts with a quick check of the mail and then settling into the chair. Tilak Marg is a well-known area, so people usually don't have too much trouble finding the place, though the street numbers can be a bit confusing if you’re new to the area. I don’t have a giant staff or a lobby with fancy chairs. It’s more of a practical setup where work actually gets done. Sometimes the noise from the street comes in through the window, but you get used to it after a week or two. I’ve always preferred this kind of environment over those big, glass office buildings where you can’t even open a window. Here, you feel like you’re part of the city. People drop by, we talk, we settle the business at hand, and then life goes on. It’s a quiet life in a way, even with the city buzzing outside. I just keep my head down and focus on the tasks I’ve got lined up for the week. I often stay late when there is a deadline, but I don't mind the quiet of the evening. It helps me think better.
