If you used to work at Zomato, whether you chose to move on, or I was the one who asked you to leave, this is for you.

I know that for many of you, Zomato didn't have the environment, or the leadership you needed at the time. But I know for sure, that you loved being at Zomato, and it is quite possible that you never felt like home anywhere else since you left.

We have over four hundred people at Eternal today in their second or third stints. Many of them are doing their best work now. Maybe because they've grown, but also because the company has grown. We are more organised, a little less chaotic, and hopefully, I've learned a few things along the way too.

If you haven't reached out because you think the door is closed, or because you think I'm holding onto the past, I'm not. I want you back.

There is so much to build at Eternal. We are today, a family of companies. Zomato, Blinkit Quick-Commerce, Blinkit Ambulances, District, Hyperpure, Nugget, and Feeding India. We need people who already know what good looks like here, and who care enough to fight for it. There is no better person for that than someone who has been here, left, grown, and wants to come back.

You might say that Eternal is not going to be the same, because I am not the CEO anymore. But ask yourself a question. Did titles ever matter at Eternal? I am still very much here, and I'd love for you to be a part of this next phase of Eternal.

If you feel like you have unfinished business here, please don't overthink it. Write to me at [email protected]. The Gurgaon pollution is still a bug, but being at Eternal is the feature. Let's talk and find a role that fits your life as it is today.

Creating a personal experience map is one of the smartest ways you can invest your time. https://t.co/5otVFKm0mA

Emotion regulation is not about denying your feelings. It's about choosing a constructive response.

Victimhood is blaming others for what you feel. Regulation is taking responsibility for how you react.

A key to resilience is expanding the space between stimulus and response.

Not even a thousand people were present at Pappu's Yatra in Bihar. In fact, more people gather to watch monkeys.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Many people stagnate trying to change what they can't instead of growing by changing what they can.

We don't control how others treat us—we control how we treat them. We don't decide what happens to us—we decide how we respond.

Our reputation is not up to us. Our character is.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Psychological safety is not about withholding criticism. It’s about enabling people to speak up without fear.

The goal is not to lower our standards. It’s to replace knee-jerk reactions with open-minded consideration.

All ideas are welcome. Not all views are equally valid.

I just learned that silent reading isn't silent for everyone.

Some people hear the words in their heads as they read.
