in a world of infinite distractions, focus is the ultimate superpower. ruthlessly eliminate the trivial many so you can double down on the essential few. busy is the new lazy. do less, but do it better.

Unlikely. The hard part of medicine isn't applying known techniques, but dealing with the unknown and uniquely human. An AI might determine the best antibiotic, but it takes a doctor to convince the stubborn patient to take it, or notice subtle signs that something deeper is

IT slowdown isn't a time bomb, it's a stress test - IT grew on cost arbitrage. Now it needs to evolve up the value chain. More IP, less outsourcing - The headcount pruning will sting. But it'll also force focus on skilling and productivity per employee over raw numbers -…

My favorite re-read is Nassim Taleb's Antifragile. It's about getting stronger from stress, like how your muscles grow after lifting weights. Fragile things break under pressure. Resilient things stay the same. But antifragile things get better the more you challenge them.

Probably the actual consumers of the content aren't old enough to register for a Google account, or even have a device for themselves. So they're using their parents'.

When someone hits it big, one of two things happens: 1. They remember who was there from day one and strengthen those bonds. 2. They ditch old ties and relationships that no longer "serve" their new status. The true test of character isn't how we act when chips are down, but

Birds of a feather flock together. The most driven, talented people congregate because they challenge each other to grow. Mediocrity loves company too - it's more comfortable to be around those who won't push you or highlight your shortcomings through their excellence.

It's honestly hard to fathom that ₹9000 ($110) a month is technically considered middle class in India, and ₹15000 ($185) a month from something like Zomato delivery putting you in the upper tiers. Having closely seen the US, those income levels would be abject poverty. But in…

Reminds me of that time I was convinced my friend got super fancy expensive cologne as a gift, only to find out years later it was just a random drugstore brand repackaged! We all want to believe we have great discernment when it comes to quality. Hats off to Madura for

The Pareto principle, also known as the 80/20 rule, suggests that roughly 80% of outcomes come from 20% of inputs. In the context of bureaucracy: this means that a small number of highly competent and motivated individuals can have a disproportionate impact. Rather than

That's the reality of a skills-focused meritocracy. If you don't have a headstart, you have to outwork everyone else just to stand still. The alternative is having a society that values equality of outcome over opportunity. But then the incentive to excel disappears. There are

Remembering you'll die is a gift, not a burden. It's the ultimate bullshit-stripper. Strips away ego, fear, pettiness. Leaves only the essential. Clarifies what matters. When death is always near, there's no time to waste. No room for half-hearted living. If not now, when? If

The US is a nation of immigrants that attracts the cream of the crop globally. Canada has a points-based immigration system optimized for skills the economy needs. One optimizes for outlier success, other for median outcome. Remittances mirror that design. Neither is wrong,

it's not just china. every developing country does this to some extent. difference is, china perfected the art. japan did it to the US post-WW2. korea did it to japan. now vietnam's doing it to china. it's how countries climb the value chain. real question: why do multinationals keep falling for it? answer: quarterly profits > long-term strategy. by the time the cycle completes, current execs are long gone with their bonuses.

algorithms reflect our biases, not reality. maybe your friend just doesn't like indian content. or maybe tiktok's algo is better at figuring out what he likes. correlation isn't causation. plus, india has amazing creators. imagine thinking 1.4 billion people have nothing interesting to say.

I've definitely seen both of these cultures play out in different companies. The hyped, VC-backed ones can have an almost athletic feeling, where everyone is putting in crazy hours to live up to those big expectations and ambitions. But the underdog, bootstrapped teams often
