Happiness requires struggle. Without struggle, the world would lack meaning and our joys would feel empty. Be grateful for your struggles, because within them is the constant opportunity for purpose.

Let’s not blame the people who come out to vote. Let’s not believe - with such stupid confidence - we know better. How many of us truly even understand the immediate regions we live in, let alone the realities in areas we’ve never meaningfully attempted to ever get to know?

A good bet in economics: the past wasn’t as good as you remember, the present isn’t as bad as you think, and the future will be better than you anticipate.

Just incredible to experience this in person, goosebumps and chills.

Love the point about the 50% being a feature, not a bug! Hiring senior executives is one of the toughest parts of building a company - you begin to question your own judgment, and work harder and harder to help them succeed, when swifter course correction is the only way out.

At @WeareSwades crossed a big milestone! We completed 20,000 life-changing free cataract surgeries since starting the Swades Mitra Program - where we aim to restore vision and change lives, one surgery at a time!

Which one of these methods do you use to upskill yourself in today's job market?

Powerful thread!

This is an extreme story but I’ve seen very few people truly thrive in retirement. I never glamorize retirement from working, only towards financial freedom so you can work more purposefully on what’s important. Good work that stimulates the mind & kindles purpose is a privilege!

What we are trying to do @HarappaEd

Employees are voting with their feet as they don’t feel ‘seen’ or ‘heard’ by their managers.  Being a good manager has less to do with technical skills & more to do with the mastery of softer skills like reading the room. EdTech can fix this across the world at scale.

There's a misconception that if you want to attract and retain great people you need to go easy on them and give them a cushy environment. The opposite is true. Talented people want to be held to high standards and supported through the hard work of doing big things.

Even meaningful work is hard work! It's never easy - tough things will feel tough, because they are.

A lot of people get pulled from very lucrative paths, because they buy into the story that they have to "enjoy the journey." You should love what you do, but it’s going to come with a lot of what you *won’t* like to do…so buckle in, grind it out, and get where you want to go.

"Goa has the highest female enrollment in education, and the numbers are 60% women in postgraduate degrees. Yet, in leadership and power, those numbers fade to oblivion. Women literally disappear..." my op/ed cites @deepavop + includes invaluable inputs from @elsamariedsilva ->

Mediocrity is like a magnet pulling organizations toward it. You can only avoid it by constant effort.

Biggest lesson: people who don't need small armies to get things done!
