A day in the Life of Amit Lalwani

By July 22, 2018May 30th, 2023No Comments

6:00 AM – My day starts early morning as I get up at 6 and prepare myself a nice cup of tea. After that, I do some exercise followed by meditation and breakfast.

Meditating in the morning keeps me fresh and focused during the day.

8:40 AM – I try to reach work at least 20 minutes before 9:30 so that I can be on time even if there is a delay because of traffic.

Then, I plan the day. I jot down all tasks I have to complete and prioritize them depending on their urgency and importance. I check my voice mails, emails and the calendar and try to make plans such as organizing meetings and calls. This way I can increase my pace of work and become more productive for the day.

On a typical Monday morning, I usually begin by going over the list from the previous week. This way I can set up my priorities. I review the status of the projects that I’m currently working on and I try to finish any pending work. (if any). I try to make sure that all the work assigned to me is moving forward without any glitches.

10:00 AM – As a Team Leader I organize and conduct group meetings daily or once every three days to get the status of the projects my team members working on and if they are facing any issues I help them out.

As a Startup, we have a very healthy and cheerful environment and this culture keeps us exciting every day.

11:00 AM – 7:00 PM – During a typical day at the office, I am responsible for overseeing and coordinating my team’s progress on the various projects that are assigned to my team. I keep in touch with our clients and keep them updated about the progress of the projects and make sure they are satisfied with the performance and the statistics.

1:00 PM – Lunch time is a time where we all sit together, eat and we believe that “Family that eats together, stays together”. J

Comsense is more like family to me as I was from the first few members of the team.

I am a biiiggg foodie and I love taking bites from everyone’s tiffin ;). Especially from Bhakti’s tiffin and Idli from Karan’s.

After Lunch, we play for 20 Min (Any Game, Mostly Cricket ;)) which is Seniors Vs Juniors, Where cheating is allowed ;).

On Saturday (Once in a month) we go on cricket ground to play, this is everyone’s favorite.

The most interesting part of this job is that there is no ‘typical’ day. One day I would be busy scheduling meetings and the other day I would be supervising and helping my team.

Maybe the next day I would be busy making presentations for the Client/ Prospect meetings or tutoring the trainees on how to speak efficiently in front of a crowd. If the job is unpredictable and calls for efficiency, I try my best to reach that level.

7:30 PM – Time to go home. Sometimes it feels so good at the office that nobody wants to leave on those days we play Pictionary or dumb charades  ;).

9:00 PM – I share a flat with my friends, we discuss each other’s day over dinner. And after dinner, I call my Mom and her first question “ Khana khaya beta ?”

11:00 PM – Check mails, in case of any updates or urgent work.

11:30 PM- Meditation, before going to bed I meditate for 15 Min and then Sleep.
