China is building dominance in the industries that will define the next 20 years- rare earths, magnets, batteries, EVs, robotics, semiconductors and advanced manufacturing. JL Mag is a perfect example. It already dominates high-performance rare-earth magnets and is now moving into components for humanoid robots. The strategy is simple: own the raw material, the technology, the manufacturing and eventually the entire ecosystem.

Meanwhile, much of Indian business is still chasing softer opportunities- bottled water, ice creams, snacks, packaged foods and instant delivery. Even our great software success is largely built on labour-cost arbitrage.

China is building tomorrow’s infrastructure. We, in India, should be asking- what are we building that the world will need tomorrow?

@karunpal Interesting.. this book explains the same thing in more details along with other important aspects of life. Highly recommended.

Most of the stereotypes about India in Western countries are true.

The reason you get defensive and try to push back is because you don't fit in those stereotypes and it infuriates you to be judged by the lowest common denominator. You push back because you confuse Bharat, the great ancient civilization, with modern India, the democratic socialist republic, and passionately fight for the sacred honor, philosophy, and heritage of the former, entirely ignoring the crude realities of the latter. You reject the humiliation of a collective reputation you did nothing to create, refusing to be grouped with the lawless, the uncivic, and the vulgar when your own values are entirely at odds with them.

But you're part of the quiet minority. The harsh truth is that the rest of the country, the overwhelming majority, simply does not care. They are a hopeless, unreformable mass of selfish, ignorant, and shameless parasites who lack even the basic capacity for self-reflection. Operating on a primitive threshold for crime and corruption, they are far too pathetic and lazy to care about rules, progress, or the public good. They would eagerly wallow in filth, chaos, and shortcuts just to satisfy their immediate personal greed, leeching off the system while leaving the few civilized people like you to carry the dead weight of a demographic dividend that lacks the decency and dignity to ever grow up.

Apparently this is how @BlueDart_ @BlueDartCares works.

Courier guy wakes up. Sees your address. Decides it’s too far. Calls you repeatedly from the morning to check if ull be home to give him otp-he dosent want the otp from your doorstep as other couriers do. The blue dart courier guy is the VIP here you see- customers apparently the idiots who have nothing to do but pick up their 100+ calls. And the blue dart call back numbers? Dont exist. Invalid. Needs to be legally checked how none of their call back numbers are operational.

You miss the call? Perfect excuse not to deliver. And to harass customer with 100 more calls and no delivery.

If this isn’t harassment, what is it? A scam disguised as courier service? What does blue dart do with all these undelivered pre paid products that customers give up on recieving bec of this sheer torture? Pocket it? Or is resale of unsold goods a new business model now. Uff.

Hiring Tony Robbins today costs 1 million dollars for just one day.

This is a 21-minute tape recorded in his own home more than 30 years ago.
There, he explains exactly how to get anyone to say yes.
The same material for which they now charge a fortune... completely free.

It's a rare, unfiltered recording from the time when he still didn't charge millionaires just for being in the same room.

When someone says no, they give two excuses:
“I don’t have time” or “I don’t have money”
Neither is true.

The real reason is that they still don’t believe it’s worth it.
It’s not a money problem. It’s a state problem.

Tony teaches something he calls “attack and confess”
Instead of arguing the objection, you confess your own:

“I had the chance to go six months ago and I didn’t until two months ago.
I can’t even imagine the time I wasted”

The room goes silent. No one argues.

Then he gets the person on the “yes train”
Each little yes adds to the next.
Until saying no at the end feels harder than saying yes.

When it’s time to sign, the person has already said yes five times without realizing it.

Just 21 minutes.
There you learn the two only moves that people pay 1 million a day for:
how to read anyone’s state… and how to shift it.

Most people spend years guessing in sales.
He wrote it on a flipchart in his living room in less than half an hour.

A seat in that room cost $125 dollars.
Today it costs $1 million dollars a day to sit in front of him.

The tape is free right now.
And the answer is in this video.

Naval Ravikant: "You're going to die. It's all going to zero. What's there to stress about?"

"Stress is when your mind has two conflicting desires at once. You want to be liked, but you want to do something selfish. You don't want to go to work, but you want to make money. You have two conflicting desires, and that's stress."

Most people use stress and anxiety interchangeably. Naval says they're different things:

"Anxiety is this pervasive, unidentifiable stress where you're stressed out all the time and you're not even sure why. The reason is you have so many unresolved problems that have piled up in your life, you can no longer identify what the problems are. There's this mountain of garbage in your mind. A little bit is poking out the top like an iceberg; that's anxiety. But underneath, there's a lot of unresolved things."

His fix for it is thinking about death:

"One big anxiety resolver for me is just ruminating on death. You're going to die. It's all going to zero. You cannot take anything with you. If you can keep that idea in front of you at all times, what's there to stress about?"

Which raises a question. If nothing matters, isn't all time wasted?

"What is wasted time? Everything is wasted time in a sense because nothing matters in the ultimate. But in each moment, it's the only thing that matters. So if you're doing something you want to do and you're fully there for it it's not wasted time. If your mind is running away, wishing you were somewhere else, anticipating the future, regretting the past, that's wasted time. That's time you're not present for."

And the part most people miss:

"People get worried about dying and no longer being here. But they don't realize that so much of their life is spent not being here in any case."

Something extraordinary actually happened today.

Stuff so extraordinary, that even if it comes as a dream, you dismiss it as something that is impossibly improbable.

Thanks to your support and blessings, today I had the ultimate honor and privilege of having a conversation with our honorable Prime Minister on Mann Ki Baat about https://t.co/CIr1xkvilD

I still can't believe that he actually spoke to me, asked me about the website, its features and some questions on general history too. I am still in a daze.

For an amateur builder like me, i don't think there is a greater recognition or validation than this.

This conversation has given me enough motivation to take BharatRajya to the next level and make it the ideal history reference and visualization website for everyone.

Thank you @narendramodi ji, for encouraging people like us and inspiring us to achieve greater heights.

These is one conversation I will not forget in this lifetime. Or maybe even the next.

And rest assured sir, I won't let you down.

@gajen_jangid N number of party places everywhere, including pubs and BYOBs.. and so many tourist destinations at driving distance.

[Gajendra Jangid @gajen_jangid]

Living in Gurgaon for last 11 years and I have made the same jokes everyone makes. The waterlogging, the November air, cyber hub traffic at 6 pm. This city gets enough bad light online I feel

Here is what almost nobody says about this city.

If you love outdoors, Gurgaon gives you more than any city in India. Not one great facility. Density. Almost everything sits inside a ~30 minute drive, and none of it asks you to belong to a exclusive club.

- A first horse riding lesson for ₹549 at Janak Equestrian in Sector 67 and there are many more.

- A first shooting lesson for ₹999. Prime 10X, Sector 94. Air pistol and air rifle, pellets and coaching included, open to anyone above 10.

- A 10-lane, 400m synthetic athletics track at Tau Devi Lal Stadium, Sector 38. The same complex is a first-class cricket ground for Haryana.

- 18 holes of real golf with no membership Karma Lakelands takes walk-ins at ₹3,200 on a weekday. And a driving range in Sector 59 where you hit balls for a few hundred rupees.

- 270+ traditional climbing routes on Dhauj, 50 minutes out. A genuine trad crag with a no-bolt rule. Most people in this city do not know it exists. Indoor rock climibing options too on MG road.

- 392 acres of restored mining wasteland at Aravalli Biodiversity Park, 15 minutes from MG Road, free, with a 3.5 km jogging track and 185 bird species. IUCN made it India's first OECM site in 2022.

- Plenty of stadium size Cricket, Football grounds options that you can book in advance for groups.

- Karting from ₹600. A 4x4 track with 25 obstacles at Bandhwari.

- And this is besides all the usual sports swimming, badminton, tennis, table tennis, pickleball, padel which for most of us are within 10 minutes of home.

I dont believe any other cities offers so many outdoor options at such convenience.

This one came and was moving from different angles, pray for Nepal cause they’ve recorded almost 480 dead bodies and more than 1500 still missing.

[Weather Monitor @WeatherMonitors]

Terrifying footage shows a flash flood sweeping through the Nepal–Tibet border, trapping people on rooftops and balconies. At least 469 have been killed, with hundreds still missing.

[Neil Borate @ActusDei]

Saurabh Mukherjea gets a lot of hate but frankly a lot of what he has said in the book - the crisis of the Indian middle class is actually playing out.
1) Jobs have stalled. 8.7 crore youth not studying or working.
2) Going abroad isn't as easy as it once was. The West is making it harder to immigrate there.
2) Social media fuels unrealistic aspirations. So the youth borrow to finance consumption. Notice the incident in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar about the boy taking his own life, seemingly over an iPhone EMI.
3) The youth turn to F&O. 43% of traders are below the age of 30. They lose money there as well (88% making loses, per the Sebi study).
4) A govt job is seen as another escape from poverty and unemployment. Except that paper leaks lay waste to months of effort.
The result? A tinder box. More protests over various (seemingly different) issues - paper leaks, reservations and much else. The underlying cause is the same, a 'fastest growing' economy that isn't creating enough jobs.

I don't know if there's a solution. Supply-side remedies that can solve it, take time to play out. Less red tape, free capital, labour and land reforms. Even if done now, I don't know if the youth of India have time on their hands.
