I’m enthralled by this series of talks by George Soros. In them, he builds upon Karl Popper’s Open Society to constrict a theory of society, economics, and financial markets. The project is as ambitious as it sounds, but the writing is quite clear.

Left - 2010 Right - 2020 India, a short journey. From rising economic power to failing democracy

One time, I was at a Q&A with Nora Roberts, and someone asked her how to balance writing and kids, and she said that the key to juggling is to know that some of the balls you have in the air are made of plastic & some are made of glass.

Each year, about 15% of queries on Google have never been searched for before. => If you are tuning your marketing to Google search trends you are lagging in setting the trend and catching the trend. You are one of many players. Mind that. Source:

In India, biggest risk for businesses are governments, regulators and courts.

One big mistake can push you back by a decade. Focus on not doing wrong things.

After getting invited to two private Slack investor groups and one on WhatsApp, I'm becoming convinced that private, interest-specific social networks are the future. The sharing is a magnitude order higher signal. Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. are becoming auditions.

The worst part was that Amit came to me only because the flow took him to paytm and he wanted to use gpay instead! The Bharat market is huge, but the people get hurt a lot more when they are scammed out of thousands of their hard earned rupees.

Ok people, I have VERY good news to report. @rrherr found a list of all the Vintage Shorts. Text your friends, cancel your weekend plans, and lose yourself in the wonderful world of ideas.

“An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than an exact answer to an approximate problem.”

Stay clear of perfectionism. Building a business from scratch means creating things that work just enough to be valuable. They don't need to be perfect. If you try and create the best product ever, you will never release it.

If you’re struggling to come up with a business idea, remember there are only four different types of utility: form utility, place utility, time utility, and possession utility. What can you make easier to understand, faster to get, cheaper to buy, or more accessible to others?

Where people try to to save money: - $3 coffee Areas that actually matter: - Investment fees ($50,000+) - Asset allocation ($50K+) - Negotiating salary ($25K+) - Mortgage interest ($20K+) - Student loan interest ($5K+) Stop asking $3 questions & start asking $30,000 questions

true story...

@rsg Someone once said, “as the tangible becomes cheaper, the intangible becomes more valuable.”

Design is more important than ever for startups. One theory why: almost everything else has gotten easier. Basic tech stacks are a commodity—automation enables smaller, focused teams—capital is abundant. Product design is a larger percentage of what’s left.

What would the ultimate online course look like? Thinking: - On-demand - Cohort based - Live sessions - Pre-recorded webinars - Downloadable worksheets - Hosted on/offline - Accountability - Low price vs high price - Pass or fail - Accreditation - Post-course opportunities etc

Pricing tells a story. - Low price -> product isn't that valuable - High price -> this is a premium product - Freemium -> need time to see value - $/seat -> every user gets value - $/team -> the value is for teams, not users - $/tx -> value on every tx What do your prices say?

Real world internships could fundamentally change High School in the US. Then students could make more informed decisions about what to study in college & what working is like. Most teachers & professors haven’t worked in the types of jobs their students will eventually have.

Your best guess of where you want to end up is infinitely more useful than no thought at all. An airline sells tickets from London to New York. Do they decide where they’re going mid flight? A good plan: Fly to New York. An OK plan: Fly West. A bad plan: Fly.

Peter Thiel’s philosophy in three words: Be anti-mimetic. Here’s the secret... the Internet lets you curate your environment, so you can be hyper-mimetic towards people who are anti-mimetic. Copy the people who don’t copy people.

@paulg Your rate-of-learning is a better proxy for how successful you will be than your current compensation because it’s a leading rather than lagging indicator.

How to write a landing page title:

You become more attractive when you don’t need love. You become richer when you don’t need money. You become more convincing when you don’t need to impress. When you don’t need it, you make clearer, better decisions.
