Corporate Wisdom: The Water Carrier’s Donkey

Long ago, cities didn’t have running water. A water carrier used a donkey to deliver water to people’s homes. The donkey worked very hard every day. Its back was bent from carrying heavy loads, and its body was full of wounds. The owner didn’t take good care of the donkey. He fed it poorly and often beat it to make it move faster. The donkey was patient, but it suffered a lot and often wished it would die to escape the pain. One day, the water carrier met a friend who worked in the king’s stables. Seeing the donkey’s terrible condition, the friend offered to take it in and care for it. The owner happily agreed. At the royal stables, the donkey saw strong, beautiful horses living in comfort. Comparing himself to them, he felt sad and complained to God: “Why do they live so well while I suffer so much?” Suddenly, a war broke out. Soldiers rushed in, took the horses, and rode them into battle. The next day, the horses returned badly injured—covered in wounds and arrows. Watching this, the...

The Rise of the Centennials: What Makes Gen Z Unique?

 Generation Z (also known as Gen Z, Zoomers, iGen, or Centennials) is generally defined as anyone born between 1997 and 2012. This generation, sandwiched between Millennials and Generation Alpha, possesses several unique traits. Let's explore them to connect with them better!

  • Googles Everything

    • Google is their primary information source, always, from the latest news to product reviews. This is now gradually shifting towards AI models.

  • Digital Natives

    • Gen Zers are so accustomed to technology that they now want everything to be online, from friendships and dating to classes and work.

  • Scrollers

    • Gen Z struggles most with mindless scrolling. Once they start, they find it difficult to stop. This isn't their fault; phones and apps are intentionally designed to cause this effect.

  • Prioritizes Personal Development

    • Gen Zers believe in work-life balance and seek opportunities that contribute to both their personal and professional development. They idealize financial and time freedom. They dream big and are often found tackling burnouts and finding new ways to improve their productivity.

  • Understands Finance

    • Gen Zers better understand the significance of savings and the power of investment. They manage well with their smart financial choices.

  • Explorers

    • Gen Zers love trying, experimenting, and exploring new things constantly, from technology and fashion to food and travel. They want to check out everything, from classic to the latest trends.

  • Loves Building Connections

    • Gen Z connects and builds networks through social media: WhatsApp for family, Facebook for friends, and LinkedIn for professionals. Not only that, Gen Zers tend to transform their passion for gaming into a fun networking opportunity.

  • AI Enthusiast

    • Gen Z knows how to leverage AI and when to put it to the Turing test to expose its "cognitive camouflage." Gen Zers simply ask AI a few common-sense questions, and they have a perfect meme to share the very next moment.

Do you agree or want to add something? Tell us in the comments. If you liked this article, share it with fellow Zoomers.

Game: China-US AI Competition Getting Hot, So We Said Why Not!

In the unfolding US-China AI war, the latest battlefield reveals a remarkable shift: while the U.S. continues pouring private sector innovation into AI—especially foundational models —China is rapidly catching up through strategic state-backed investments and homegrown chip development . Just last week, China announced plans to triple domestic AI chip production next year, launching multiple new fabrication plants to support efforts by firms like Huawei , Cambricon , and DeepSeek .
