If you can overthink the worst, why can’t you overthink the best? We spend so much imagination worrying about what could go wrong. Perhaps optimism is simply using the same imagination to wonder what could go right.
The older I get the more I realize, calm is the real wealth. Living a very private life. Away. Alone. Observing. Thinking. Learning. Being bored. Creating something meaningful. A quiet day, sunlight, coffee, music, books, and stillness. That'll do.
People who reach a high level of awareness become unsociable. Crowds drain them. Noise overwhelms them. Small talk feels like work. They chill different. A cozy room. Two people they trust. Good food. Music. Conversations that actually mean something. That’s where they feel alive. Depth over noise. Because for them... peace feels like home.
There's something i learned from introverts.
You can not control someone who is comfort being alone.
They don't need you. They choose you.
You think they would suffer without you?
They'll show you that they can enjoy their own company indoors without being bored.
This is another level of Power & self-awareness if you ask me🤭🤭
In 2020, government could sell petrol under ₹50 and be profitable but we paid ₹80+ per litre.
From 2014 to 2026, one of the biggest economic stories in India has been fuel taxation.
In 2008:
Crude oil was ~$99/barrel.
Delhi petrol was ~₹52/litre.
In 2020:
Crude crashed to ~$42/barrel during COVID.
But Delhi petrol touched ~₹80/litre.
Why?
Because after 2014, especially post-2019, petrol pricing became increasingly tax-driven rather than crude-driven.
Here’s the reality most people don’t realise:
Petrol price is not just crude oil cost.
It includes:
• Central excise duty
• State VAT
• Dealer commissions
• Refining & freight
• Oil company margins
By 2020–2021, crude oil cost per litre was roughly ₹20–33.
Yet citizens were paying ₹80–95/litre.
That means taxes and additional costs became larger than the crude itself.
Simple comparison:
2000:
Crude cost per litre: ~₹8
Delhi petrol: ~₹27
Gap: ~₹19
2020:
Crude cost per litre: ~₹19.5
Delhi petrol: ~₹80
Gap: ~₹60
So when global crude prices fell massively, Indian consumers did not get proportional relief.
Governments defended this by saying fuel taxes funded:
• infrastructure,
• welfare schemes,
• fiscal deficit management,
• COVID recovery spending.
Critics argue:
• middle class bore the burden,
• transport inflation increased,
• food inflation increased,
• and indirect taxation hurt common citizens more than direct taxation.
The key takeaway:
Before 2014, petrol prices mostly followed crude oil trends. After 2019, taxation became the dominant factor in fuel pricing.
Data tells the story better than political slogans.
India will always going to remain a country with huge potential & things are going to get worsen every single day.
I am not even talking about Rapes, Civic Sense, Illiteracy, Corruption, Paper leaks, Politics & atrocities.
- Rupee may be on free fall soon.
- Petrol/Diesel/LPG Crisis on the cards?
- Increasing inflation
- Global companies ditching India
- US & China relations reset
- Racism against Indians at it’s peak
- Pakistan with better PR than India
etc etc.
What is our plan to tackle both national & international challenges?
No plan? Then expect more & more people leave India until there is an end to this beautiful country.
Let’s not play politics everytime - better we start taking actions for India’s future.

Education minister of India is very serious about NEET paper leak & same is reflected on his twitter timeline as well. He has opened investigations against the corrupted professionals & hopefully we will get the culprits arrested.
Students can again appear for the exams. It’s not one year that’s wasted - Government gave another chance to students to learn more & score better marks next time.
Soil testing has stayed broken for decades.
Collect samples.
Send to labs.
Wait days or weeks.
Pay per test.
Meanwhile agriculture is moving toward:
• precision farming
• carbon MRV
• CSRD compliance
• greenhouse optimisation
• real-time field intelligence
At Soilo, we are building a portable soil intelligence platform that delivers:
• 16 soil & water parameters
• real-time field testing
• geo-tagged audit-ready data
• zero per-test cost
From farms to greenhouses and enterprise supply chains, the future of agriculture needs verified ground-truth soil data.
Looking to work with:
• agri distributors
• greenhouse operators
• seed companies
• ESG platforms
• carbon programmes
• enterprise farm networks
The future of agriculture will not run only on satellite data. It will run on verified field intelligence.

@Genpact India has mandated a full return to office for remote employees. Interestingly, this move comes just a day after @narendramodi and @PMOIndia encouraged companies to promote Work From Home.
Why are global firms moving in the opposite direction of the government's advice?
Emotions shape how you experience everything.
On a good day, a small comment won’t bother you.
On a bad day, the same comment can ruin your mood for hours.
When you are happy, you overlook flaws.
When you are hurt, even silence feels offensive.
That is because emotions are filters.
They change what you notice,
how you interpret things,
and what you believe people mean.
Two people can live the same moment
and experience two different realities.
Change your emotional state,
and the world will begin to feel different.

BJP in opposition for 30+ years
Lost election
Faced Political isolation
Remained in opposition
But
Never Defamed India
Not on Global stages
Not to Foreign Media
Not against the National intrest
Congress in opposition 12 years
Questioned India's Growth
Ran International narrative against India
Doubted Army Achievement
Defamed India every at every stage of development
The difference is not Ideology
The difference is Intent
Remember this
Opposing a Govt is Democracy
Opposing the Nation is not
Nation above politics
INDIA FIRST. ALWAYS 🇮🇳🇮🇳
The older I get, the more I realize, I don’t want a busy life. I want a deep life. Slow mornings. Focused work. Calm people. Meaningful progress. Good books. A quiet mind at night. Nothing flashy. Nothing trendy. Just a life that feels good to live. Depth over noise. That'll do.
it is easier to reach outward
than it is to turn inward
to hold another heart gently
feels less sharp than holding your own
there is a fire in self-recognition
not the gentle kind of warmth
but the kind that exposes everything
you thought you could leave unexamined
we escape into connection
because it softens the mirror
but every borrowed tenderness
eventually returns us home
and there, in that return
nothing can be avoided anymore
the question stands without disguise
can you stay when it burns
i write for those who
learn that love begins within themselves
I get blown away every time I read this paragraph by Carl Jung:
To love someone else is easy, but to love what you are, the thing that is yourself, is just as if you were embracing a glowing red-hot iron: it burns into you and that is very painful. Therefore, to love somebody else in the first place is always an escape which we all hope for, and we all enjoy it when we are capable of it. But in the long run, it comes back on us. You cannot stay away from yourself forever, you have to return, have to come to that experiment, to know whether you really can love. That is the question-whether you can love yourself, and that will be the test.
