Oh what a irony! 😱
How much wisdom is found in those ancient literature? And how relevant they are! Thanks @SathyaHQ for visualising Kural and spreading the ideas contained in it to the wider world. #tamil #Thirukkural #moderntamil
It bothered me that my fav CSS library @tachyons_css didn't have a playground. So as part of learning @Alpine_JS , I created one here: Surprised how easy it was to create one with Alpine. Code is here:
@SachinRamje What browser based design tool would you recommend for designing social media posts (something like sketch but on the web)? Thanks
As Bill Bryson says the urban planners seem to design cities for cars, business rather than for people. True for India too @Abhishek_Rai
One of my favourite Kural. Thanks @SathyaHQ for visualising it.

You have “bad” clients because you thought they’d be better even as a pain in the neck than not having that client. You have no time because you refuse to turn down business. You’re irritable because you’re not in control @BentleyGTCSpeed
Quality control begins with education and ends with education-Kaoru Ishikawa If my team doesn't deliver quality output, I can either whine or educate. Either I'm part of the solution or I'm the problem. That is why I spend a lot of time thinking and teaching at @netsolutions
Couple learning with immediate use. You don’t learn to ski by reading a book. You learn with an instructor on the slopes. @BentleyGTCSpeed

As they say, a deer running for its life doesn't have to be the fastest. It just have to be faster than the other one.
>You don't have to be right to make money, just less wrong than the rest. Whoever learns this lessons prospers. This is true in investing, building a career, business, and almost in everything in life.

People get the future they work for. Lovely point. What’s the future you are working for?
I disagree. This is a myth that is created to rely solely on us. From the cave men times, we have been part of a community. Giving and receiving. Satisfied life enriches both self and others.

Dr. @vivek_murthy, said this about how heart operates: > The heart operates in two phases: Systole, where it pumps blood to the vital organs, and diastole, where it relaxes. Pausing, it turns out, is what sustains the heart. Your heart is best with rest. Your mind & body too.
Problems are inevitable in a society. When problems arise, we can either become: • a monk, • a lotus, or • a salt.
Make trends your friend. The way Jeff Bezos does. He said this about how he started Amazon. > The wake-up call was finding this startling statistic that web usage in the spring of 1994 was growing at 2,300 percent a year. He decided to take advantage of the trend.
Why sibling relations matter and what you can do to improve it? Our parents don't stay with us throughout our lives, our romantic partners and friends come and go, but our siblings are always there. So they play a key role in our personal growth & well-being.
Why should I have an opinion. Govt should make facts public. @Swamy39
Shouldn’t media discuss these rather than cows, bigotry…
There has to be discussion in the country. Many minds have to debate, rather than PM thinking I know everything. What if he is wrong? - Swamy
Modi met Xi 18 times. Make the discussion public. Our neighbours are either falling apart or threatening. Most of them are under the influence of China. @Swamy39
When we talk about goals, we usually are talking about “have” goals. But “do” goals are how we reach the “have” goals. To continue to do, we need “be” goals. I detail it here: Would love to hear what @nathanbarry has to say on this.
Value Investing > Real Estate I got a flat in Whitefield, Blr. Its value doubled in 20 years. I invested abt the same amount on the stock market during the same period. In spite of all the market gloom & doom, its value also doubled. Why then investing > real estate?
With everyone working from home after COVID, everyone is talking about occupational burnout, now more than ever before. Did you know that burnout as well as its potential solutions for leaders were discussed many millennia ago?

Well done @amitranjan. 👏
Calculus is precise, and probability is approximate. There isn't always a need for precision in life. Things we assume are accurate are only approximations.

Thanks @Manish322Verma for sharing Kamnath ji apt quote. Now they there is a solid foundation I hope Indian leaders (political and business) will set ambitious goals and achieve them using the foundation laid by @FirstPMOfIndia
What got you here, won't get you there. Many fall prey to peter's principle though.

Airtel fiber connection is down for more than 24 hours. When I raise a ticket the response is: "We are working on it" No "time to resolve". Customer is left hanging without an answer. 😱 😭 😩 @Airtel_Presence
