Earlier when a company would send me a court case or a legal notice, I would get scared.
Now whichever days I get a court case or a legal notice from a company, I wear this tshirt.
You don’t create a health revolution, without making a few enemies!
lately i've realised, the key to doing everything in life is just aim to do something few days a week
current split:
eat healthy 5-6x, workout 4-5x, focused work 4-5x, read before bed 3x, call parents 2-3x, call friends 1-2x, the list goes on
and then rest of the days i'm allowed to do whatever i want, it's a trick & somehow i end up sticking to routine way more this way
An idea I’m implementing in my life:
The 1-6-4 Method.
Popularized by entrepreneur and author Jesse Itzler, it’s a foolproof way to make sure you always have fun planned throughout the year.
1. Plan one big “year-making” event
This is inspired by the Japanese concept of Misogi (a challenging annual endeavor).
Pick one massive defining challenge or event for the year that pushes you to grow past your limits:
• A long endurance event (like a marathon)
• A big personal project (like finally starting that side business)
• Something transformative (like a multi-day solo backpacking trip)
This’ll act as the anchor for your year.
2. Schedule 6 mini-adventures for every other month
Lock in one small, exciting experience every other month (6 per year):
• Going camping at a national park
• Traveling on vacation to a place you’ve never been
• Attending a music festival where your favorite artist is performing
• Hosting a group of friends for a dinner party and game night
• Explore a new part of your city that you’ve always wanted to visit
3. Implement a winning habit every quarter
Add one positive, compounding habit every 3 months (4 per year).
It could be drinking more water, walking 10k steps per day, meditating, being on time, or any small routine that improves your life.
These are your building blocks for long-term growth.

We’ve become bad at leisure.
The digital world isn’t bringing as much joy to our lives.
Having alternative choices (using the 1-6-4 Method) to look forward to throughout the year makes life so much more enjoyable.
And remember:
Put these on your calendar so they actually happen rather than staying as ideas.
Cheers to more joy this year and beyond. 🥂

one of the best gifts you can give your child is one of the simplest, and completely free (in terms of money)
the "30 Million Word Gap" study is one of the most cited pieces of research in early childhood education
researchers followed 42 families for 2.5 years, recording every word. by age 3, children in professional families had heard 45 million words. kids in poverty: 13 million
the ramifications are long-lasting. even at ages 9-10, the kids exposed to more words had stronger language skills, vocabulary, and reading comprehension
there is also a socioeconomic disparity here. the good news is, this may be solvable by simple talking more! the bad news is, it may be harder than it sounds. perhaps the disparity exists in the first place because low-SES parents focus more on making ends meet than talking to their kids
so to summarize — you should be talk-maxxing as much as you can! narrate your day, respond to their babbling, read to them. talking is all you need
@AirIndiaX, today one of your pilots, Capt. Virender Sejwal, assaulted me physically at T1, Delhi Airport.
Here are the facts of the matter,:
🔸 Me & my family were guided to use the security check that the staff uses (also the PRM check), because we had a 4 month old baby in a stroller.
🔸 The staff was cutting the queue ahead of me. On calling them out, Capt. Virender, who himself was doing the same thing, asked me if I was anpadh (uneducated), and couldn't read the signs that said this entry was for staff.
🔸 A verbal scuffle broke out.
🔸 Not able to excercise restraint, the AIX pilot proceeded to physically assault me, leaving me bloody. The blood in the photograph (first comment) on his shirt is also mine.
Here are my issues with the whole thing:
🔹 My holiday is ruined. The first thing I have done here is see a doctor.
🔹 My 7 year old daughter, who saw her father get assaulted brutally, is still traumatized & scared.
🔹 I have no clue how @DGCAIndia & @AirIndiaX can allow such pilots to fly. If they can't keep their cool in a scuffle, can they be trusted with the lives of hundreds of people in the sky?
🔹 How can @DelhiAirport get away with such mismanagement, combining staff entry with passengers carrying infants, creating chaos at a sensitive security area? I thought Airports were safe places!
🔹 I was forced to write a letter stating that I will not pursue this matter further ... It was either write that letter, or miss my flight and throw the 1.2 lakhs holiday bookings down the drain. @DelhiPolice, why can't I file a complaint after coming back? Must I sacrifice my money too, to seek justice? Will the CCTV footage disappear in the 2 days till I make it back to Delhi?
To my friends & well wishers, I am pretty shaken, but nothing permanent. Can't say the same about my daughter though. 😢
