I worked under both —watched them closely — so very very different!
These were/are their priorities.

Maharashtra IAS officer Dr Pooja Khedkar accused of using fake certificates for selection. So many Hardworking Aspirants dreams are shattered because of such shameless people out there. The sanctity of UPSC is in question now. We aspirants toil for so many years just to see our names in that so called “𝙃𝙤𝙡𝙮𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙩” & what we get in return is this mess.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 has been a joke paper leaks, corruption,postponed exams etc. Many are not financially independent, some have taken loans to fulfill their UPSC IAS dream. Many come from rural backgrounds to cities like New Delhi especially Old Rajinder Nagar with the hope that one day their social status will improve once they clear these exams. But people like Pooja & the ones who have appointed her have shown what money can do.

She has claimed 𝙊𝘽𝘾 𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙜𝙤𝙧𝙮 so let me tell you she is the daughter of former civil servant Dilip Khedkar, who served as Commissioner of the Pollution Department, comes from a family with a strong administrative background. Her maternal grandfather, Jagannathrao Budhwant, also had a distinguished career as an IAS officer.

Her father’s election affidavit shows income of ₹40 crores. So the question is where did the 𝘾𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢𝙮 𝙡𝙖𝙮𝙚𝙧 criteria go? Certainly she does not need reservation.
Who is to be blamed? We need answers!!!

Share this to maximum people so that even they know how corrupted the whole system is.

The whole #LeopardinBengaluru saga, where unfortunately, the leopard was shot dead by forest officials is an indication of the reality of our cities today - where man is mindlessly encroaching on the territory of the wild.

Our cities are growing without a care for our environment or wildlife. We encroach lakes, tanks, forests and everything that is necessary for a sustainable life. Our hunger for real estate will eventually kill our cities.

This is a moment for us to reflect and make course correction as a society. Will we? Won’t we? Only time will tell.

Builders have reduced RERA orders to just a piece of paper. Pls watch this serious discussion on sufferings of homebuyers, way forward and steps under consideration by @MoHUA_India.

[Girish Nair @nairkgirish]

@governorswaraj Sir, what you wrote is the sense of majority of people who are buyers. The toothless mechanism like RERA are of no use as it favours builders. There is no legal or govt support for aggrieved buyers who have to shell out their entire savings to get a roof over their head.

Introverts don’t get lonely for “people” time, we get lonely for meaningful connection.

The best gift from parents is love, self-confidence and sense of adventure.

@ShashiTharoor If parliament is in such a state you can imagine how the rest of the country is! Such an apology!

That’s a seriously depressing cartoon. But it’s made me decide to put down the phone (after tweeting this!) and ensure that my Sunday is spent with my neck straight and my head up…

How to overcome hard times in life

The Stockdale Paradox

Why everyone needs to know it (especially right now):

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I recently came across data on who we spend our time with over the course of our lives.

The insights are simultaneously inspiring and depressing.

Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Time Spent With Parents & Siblings

Peaks in childhood and declines after age 20.

Key Takeaways:
• Time with family is limited.
• Time with parents declines sharply after age 20.
• You may only see your loved ones a few more times.

Prioritize and cherish every moment.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Time Spent With Friends

Peaks at age 18 and declines sharply to a low baseline.

Key Takeaways:
• Embrace friendship breadth, but focus on depth.
• Cherish those who are with you through good times and bad.

Invest your energy in the healthy, meaningful friendships that last.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Time Spent With Partner

Trends upwards until death.

Key Takeaways:
• Who you choose as a partner is the most important decision you'll ever make.
• Find someone you genuinely enjoy spending time with.

Never settle for less than love.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Time Spent With Children

Peaks in your 30s and declines sharply thereafter.

Key Lessons:
• Time with your children is short—the "Magic Years" will fly by if you let them.
• Be present in every moment.

Slow down and embrace the sweetness that children bring to your life.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Time Spent With Coworkers

Steady during the prime working years from age 20-60.

Key Lessons:
• You'll spend a lot of time at work.
• Who you choose to work with is one of the most important decisions you'll make.

Find work—and coworkers—that create energy in your life.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Time Spent Alone

Steadily increases throughout your life.

Key Lessons:
• Learn to embrace solitude.
• Flex your boredom muscle regularly.

Find happiness and joy in the time you have to yourself—there will be a whole lot of it as you get older.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

In summary:

(1) Family time is limited—cherish it.

(2) Friend time is limited—prioritize real ones.

(3) Partner time is significant—never settle.

(4) Children time is precious—be present.

(5) Coworker time is significant—find energy.

(6) Alone time is highest—love yourself.
