Don’t take up every activity with competitive spirit. Do things because you find joy in it. That would be your advantage.

Jogging refreshes your heart and mind like no other activity. If you are low on enthusiasm, go for a jog If you are not able to focus, go for a jog If you want to feel happy, go for a jog If you are happy, go for a jog 😀

I used to undertake projects just for the love of it. In the last decade, I evaluated everything from "will it make money". I want to get back to doing things just for the love of doing it.

This is one reason I respect her a lot. She never played a victim card, though so much of mud was thrown at her. She stood up to her bullies, internal to cong and outside too. That is grace and culture. Pure example of what it means to be an Indian.

> every day they (people of Berea) carefully examined the Scriptures to see if what Paul said was true - Acts 17:11 People of Berea were appreciated because they checked even Paul. That's what my role-model has been.

- Don't put anyone on a pedestal We need to repeat that in the social media era (or is it RT?) multiple times a week. Hero worship is dangerous for our health, democracy, wealth, and for everything else.

We all live up to names given to us by our parents, whether we realize it or not. My mother, Maria Johnsi, was no exception. Here is the eulogy I delivered at my mother's funeral:

What is the Microsoft Frontpage for the current times?

Anyone working on releasing next version of @tachyons_css ? I see lot of commits but the released version is still v4. @mrmrs_ will there be v5 anytime soon? tachyons is way simpler than other options available

We expect too much of rights than responsibility. That manifests itself as entitlement. You can see it in flights, malls, social media, and everywhere. Which also shows as inability to handle criticism or opposing viewpoints.

Indians are socialists appearing as capitalists

We grew up in a culture where speaking loud in a common place was considered rude. Now if you goto a mall or any open space you can hear people shouting into their phone or listening to songs loudly. What would be next in cultural shift?

Is it now voluntarily mandatory to link @digilocker_ind with demat accounts?

@TabularIO has more here about unbundling storage and query engines.

The database is being unbundled. Historically, a database is both data storage & a query engine. Unbundle storage from query engine.

This prediction believes humans can never get better. Only AI can. We humans have extraordinary talent and skills to match challenges thrown at us. Read history and you'll notice predictions of doom in every century. We have survived so far and we will surpass this too.

> Self-confidence erodes and expectations fall. And from this place arise narratives which suit foreign powers and fit vested interests. That is what’s wrong with India, and that is what’s getting fixed. Would like to know how this is getting fixed in today's India @suryakane

Mental health is living in your bubble

When you know your reason for existence, it should effect the decisions you make. - Patrick Lencioni How to find your reason for existence? Write your obituary:

> 100 calories from a cola is not the same as 100 calories from a fruit which has fibre, micronutrients, natural sugar and a sense of satiety. Not all data points are same. Beware of using any data points. This is one thing you learn when you learn, "how to lie with statistics"

Took sometime today to build all episodes of @GravitasWins as a @baserow table: Now every episode is categorized and all links are easily browsable. Happy about this.

This is a cool "product as a marketing" hack. Grabbed my link too.

New startups change the habits and behaviors of customers and then charge for the changed habits. Earlier restaurants used to deliver for free. Now we pay for the aggregators. Same case with all digital use cases.

I need a #notetaking tool that’s a combination of @logseq & @obsdmd Obsidian: • love no learning curve to start using it • long form writing • simple interlinking to sections with [[essay#section]] format Logseq: • outlining • taking notes from YT, pdf with sidebar

Is this a case of polymorphism or operator overload?

Been reading “Good strategy/Bad Strategy” by Richard Rumelt. Whole book can be compressed into - “strength applied to the most promising opportunity” Then we can dig deeper into each part. I am going to explore these parts more in the coming days.

Much like physical health, mental health doesn’t only include things to improve but also reducing everything that disturbs. In addition to deleting Twitter from mobile, I have started to write a dairy daily - either in the morning or in the evening.

Finished reading “Good Strategy / Bad Strategy” twice in the last 3 weeks. 1st time read & highlighted. 2nd time: going through highlights Next: summarise After that: connect with other books / ideas I love this book

Content you create (text, podcast, webinar) should address head, heart, and hands of your audience: • head : appeals to their reasons with data & logic; • heart : appeals to emotions with word play, visuals, personal story • hands : give them something to act after listening

Will new Google SEO changes kill chatgpt generated content or will we see more and more of gpt generated content?

A new experiment as part of mental health & productivity. • Deleted Twitter app from mobile • Will post only via buffer • Use Twitter only on laptop once a day (engaging = answering replies, replying to other’s tweets etc) Let me see how it goes.

> Not sure what's happening. As a techie guy, when I talk to most marketers I use this to understand their expertise. Novice knows everything. They can quote all google algos, SEO techniques, and so on. Masters say: I have no bloody clue. Let us figure it out.

What’s the streaming service you are using now? Amazon prime has become crap.

Always evaluate options for your context. Don't follow the megastars of the domain.

Next interview on @GravitasWins Radio - Building generational wealth. We will discuss: • What are the best ways to leave wealth to your kids? • Will leaving wealth to them make them irresponsible? • What are the tax efficient ways? What other questions should we discuss?

Sad case of digitization in India. It is supposed to be efficient and corrupt-free for citizens. Yet both objectives are defeated for citizens.

🔥 Our hundredth episode is here! 🔥 Excited to have Samson Selladurai, a serial entrepreneur, on the podcast! Join us as we dive into the lessons he learned from both his successes and failures. We talk about: • Entrepreneurship journey and challenges • Role of mentorship •…

Few days back when Google took down Indian apps, Indian entrepreneurs wanted GoI to step in. Then... GoI says AI models need their approval, everyone takes up arms saying this will kill innovation. Make up your mind. You want govt regulation or not.

What is the role of parents in #homeschooling? My younger son writes his perspective on this subject. Parents play an important role in educating kids. In homeschooling we take full control and fine tune the curriculum for each kid’s interest.

You learn a lot from history. About revolutions: > The only real revolution is in the enlightenment of the mind and the improvement of character, the only real emancipation is individual, and the only real revolutionists are philosophers and saints
