When A Hockey Team Is Left To Wash Dishes – What Are We Really Building?

When A Hockey Team Is Left To Wash Dishes – What Are We Really Building? When A Hockey Team Is Left To Wash Dishes – What Are We Really Building? By Amarjeet Singh @ AJ There was a time when Pakistan hockey was feared. Not respected — feared. Four World Cups. Olympic gold. Asian dominance. Skill, artistry, speed. Today, we are reading headlines about unpaid hotel bills, cancelled bookings, players stranded at airports, and athletes washing dishes before stepping onto the field in the FIH Pro League . Pause for a moment. Forget the scoreline. Forget Australia’s dominance. Forget Germany’s structure. Ask a deeper question. How do you expect elite performance from players who don’t even know where they are sleeping? After a 24-hour journey from Lahore, players reportedly stood on the roads in Canberra because hotel bookings were not honoured. Funds were said to be released. Payments were said to be handled. Yet the rooms were not there. What exactly broke d...

Liverpool at a Juncture: Protect the Core or Begin the Rebuild? | Amarjeet Singh @ AJ

Liverpool at a Juncture: Protect the Core or Begin the Rebuild? | Amarjeet Singh @ AJ Opinion • Liverpool • Premier League • Leadership & Identity Liverpool at the Crossroads: Protect the Core or Begin the Rebuild? When a champion stumbles, it’s never just “bad form”. It’s usually identity. It’s usually timing. It’s usually a system that no longer fits the moment. Written in AJ style by Amarjeet Singh @ AJ • coaching4champions.blogspot.com There is something painful about watching a champion stumble. Not because they lose — everyone loses. But because they don’t look like themselves anymore. Liverpool — a team that once imposed fear — now looks like a team trying to remember its own rhythm. Conceding early. Chasing games. Cracking under transitions. And ...

Reality Check: Crisis, Bubbles & Our Earning Mechanics (Hustle With Purpose) — Amarjeet Singh @ AJ

Reality Check: Crisis, Bubbles & Our Earning Mechanics (Hustle With Purpose) — Amarjeet Singh @ AJ Reality Check : Crisis, Bubbles & Our Earning Mechanics When the world shakes — we either panic, or we upgrade our mindset and our income model. Essay • AJ Style Topic: Economics • Hustle • Resilience Written by: Amarjeet Singh @ AJ We see the world in crisis. Economics looks unstable. Wars reshape trade routes, fuel prices, and confidence. And somewhere in the background, a bubble feels like it’s quietly waiting to test everyone’s foundation. Not to scare us — but to expose what we really built our lives on. The scary part is not the crisis. The scary part is when we live like the crisis will never touch us — until it does. I’ve seen this pattern across industries and organiz...

How Many More Lives?

How Many More Lives? How Many More Lives? Negligence is not an accident. Every day, as we scroll through our phones, the same headlines appear. Here — an accident. There — an accident. Another crash. Another death. Another excuse. “Suddenly lost control.” “Didn’t notice.” “Unavoidable.” But how many of these were truly accidents? Let’s ask the question we all avoid — how many drivers were on their phones? Texting. Scrolling. Replying to messages that could have waited. Eyes down. Focus gone. The road reduced to background noise. I don’t ask this as a theory. I ask this from experience. “I was hit from behind in a traffic jam. A young kid driving his parents’ car. When I confronted him, he didn’t deny it. He simply said, ‘Yes uncle, I was on the phone.’ ” No fear. No understanding. No awareness that a few seconds of distraction could have ended lives. And we still call this an accident? A car travelling at 60 km/h moves almost 17...

Liverpool 2025–26: Don’t Write Us Off Yet

Liverpool 2025–26: Don’t Write Us Off Yet FAN MODE: ON ANALYST MODE: ON EX-REFEREE LENS: ON Liverpool 2025–26 : Don’t Write Us Off Yet One minute you’re champions. Next minute you’re being labelled “crisis”. That’s football. That’s Liverpool. And that’s why we never stop believing. By Amarjeet Singh @ AJ “I was only in the game for the love of football — and I wanted to bring back happiness to the people of Liverpool.” — Bill Shankly (and yes… that “happiness” line hits different when the table hurts) Scene 1: The League Has Turned Into a Street Fight Let me say it the way a referee would: this season has been a match where the rhythm keeps breaking. Soft fouls. Broken momentum. Nerves. Injuries. And every opponent suddenly thinks: “They’re not invincible… so we can have a go.” That’s how “a dip” becomes ...

From Vanity to Value — Amarjeet Singh @ AJ

From Vanity to Value — Amarjeet Singh @ AJ From Vanity to Value: Why Most Organisations Don’t Have a Marketing Problem — They Have a Leadership Design Problem Written by Amarjeet Singh @ AJ — Lived experience across Automotive (2W & 4W), Service Industries, Theme Parks & Township Design/Management (Malaysia & ASEAN) Everyone talks about marketing — clicks, impressions, engagement. Yet CEOs and CFOs still ask the only question that matters: “Where is the pipeline? Where is the revenue?” Everyone celebrates new vehicle sales. Launches. Booking numbers. Campaign buzz. But the truth I learned the hard way — on the ground — is this: new sales excite the ego; systems sustain the business. Let me ask a blunt leadership question: If your dashboards look good, why does the business still feel fragile? ...

Aftersales: What the Workshop Taught Me That Boardrooms Never Did — Amarjeet Singh @ AJ

Aftersales: What the Workshop Taught Me That Boardrooms Never Did — Amarjeet Singh @ AJ Aftersales: What the Workshop Taught Me That Boardrooms Never Did An essay by Amarjeet Singh @ AJ — Cars • Motorcycles • Malaysia & ASEAN Exposure Everyone celebrates new vehicle sales — launches, booking numbers, influencers, roadshows. But the truth I learned the hard way is this: new sales excite the ego; aftersales sustains the business. Everyone talks about sales. Units sold. Market share. Monthly targets. PowerPoint slides that look good, sound confident, and disappear after the meeting ends. Let me ask a simple question — one I learned to ask only after years in the industry: If sales are doing so well, why does the business still feel fragile? That question followed me across cars, motorcycles, brands...
