Pavel Durov on why he hasn't had depression in 20 years:

"I normally never have depression. I don't remember having depression in the last 20 years, at least maybe when I was a teenager."

Pavel's approach to difficult emotions is completely counterintuitive.

As he puts it:

"I'm a human being like everybody else. I do get to experience emotions and some of them are not very pleasant. But I believe that it's the responsibility of every one of us to cope with these emotions and to learn to work through them."

On what creates depression:

"Self-discipline is particularly important because without it, how can you overcome this seemingly endless loop of negativity or despair that ultimately leads to depression for some people?"

His method:

"One of the reasons I don't have depression is I start doing things. I identify the problem, I can see a solution, and I start executing the strategy. If you are stuck in this loop of being worried about something, nothing's ever going to change."

The mistake people make:

"People often make this mistake thinking 'Oh, I should just have some rest and then regain energy.' This is not how it works. You gain energy by doing something. So you start doing something, then it happens. You feel motivated, you feel inspired, and then ultimately you do something else a little bit more."

He continues:

"The whole point is to do first and then feel, not feel and then do. Going to the gym is a good example. There are many days when you don't want to start working out. But you have to overcome this initial reluctance and then you get to a point that you enjoy it and you think 'Oh my god, it was such a good idea to come to gym today.'"

Action creates energy, not the other way around.

For everyone who is disappointed that we didn’t finish Pakistan. I have only one question.

What exactly do you mean by “Finish Pakistan”? What do you expect to do?

Do you want to do a WW2 style Operation Sickle Cut, launch armored pincer movements, encircle Pakistani armies and annex Pakistan? Why on earth would you want to do that?

Do you want to add 300 million hostile people, some of whom already think blowing themselves up is their greatest purpose in life? How will you manage them?

Is that how you will finish Pakistan?

Or do you want to nuke them out of existence?

Because let me give you a reality check here. We won’t do that. We can’t do that. Indian citizens cannot morally contemplate, let alone sanction, nuking 300 million people. So that option is out.

Then Someone said, “Let’s split Pakistan into 5 countries”.

Now, Pakistan isn’t some Ikea Furniture that you can assemble or disassemble at your will. As hopeless they may be, they still have a functioning military and a working bureaucracy. They will do anything they can to keep the country together.

With all our might, with all our focus, we can exploit that Faultline, but it will take a lot of money and energy and 10-15 years. Are you ready to wait that long?

Some people said we should do a large-scale attack on all their air bases, military bases, Ports, Military HQ everything. Obliterate them out of existence.

Sounds nice if you are movie general.

In reality if we do that, Pakistan will launch nukes on Mumbai and Delhi. Simple. Because it will be their last resort and they will exercise it.

Obviously, we will retaliate and wipe them out of existence, but are ready to lose our 2 big cities and the lives of 20 million Indians as a price for taking out their military?

I don’t think so.

Finally, what is War? War is nothing but politics by other means. And War without objective is pointless.

Any battle launched should be with a purpose.

Our purpose in this strike was two-fold

1. Send a message to Pakistan that for every Indian your terrorist kills, we will kill 100 of your terrorists. We will take you out even if you are ensconced in the heart of your country. We will come after your terrorists like a wrath of God.
2. If Pakistan retaliates, not only can we handle them, but we will also hit and twist the knife if it comes to that.

We have achieved it. In fact, we have more than achieved it.

We have put the fear of God in the terrorists. Obviously, they will try again, but this time they know we will hit back.

And we have clearly shown Pakistan that we can penetrate wherever we want into Pakistan, while the maximum they can do is look up and shake their fists.

Some people also speak about India being diplomatically isolated.

In this entire exercise, if anyone has been isolated, it is Pakistan.

In the olden days, as soon as something bad from Pakistan happened, most countries used to descend on us, asking us to be restrained, calm, resilient etc.

This time not only did nobody speak, but they also allowed us three days of complete freedom of action where we stuck fear in the hearts of the Pakistani military.

So much so, they had to beg to us to stop.

In international diplomacy, no country will come out and say “Please attack someone else. We are with you” .

They will support you only when you are being attacked. The fact that nobody said anything when we attacked, is a diplomatic success in itself. Just that we don’t see it.

To summarize, as far as Operation Sindoor is concerned

1. We sent 200 jihadis to where they belong.
2. Took out 9 terrorist locations deep inside Pakistan
3. Attacked all major Pakistani Air bases, made a complete mockery of their air defence system.
4. Made them beg for us to stop. I mean if it is a wrestling match, the person who taps out first is the one who loses. Pakistan tapped out. Ergo, they lost.
5. Ensured Indus Water Treaty is now firmly in the dustbin.
6. Have given ourselves the freedom to attack Pakistan as soon as a Terrorist incident takes place.

If this is not a win for us, then I don’t know what is.

P:S: India wants to be an advanced country and has to provide for 80 crore people who are below the age of 30.

We have to focus on industrialization, technological self-sufficiency and agricultural modernization.

We have higher priorities than fighting pointless wars against a country who has nothing and can give nothing.

How do you monopolize any industry?

According to Mukesh Ambani, Asia's richest man, you give away $25 billion.

His competitors laughed... Until he bankrupted 11 companies, created $100 billion & disrupted India's economy.

This is history's most ruthless takeover: 🧵

[Baba Banaras™ @RealBababanaras]

When Sania Mirza got married in Pakistan, there was so much uproar. Now after the closure of Attari-Wagah border, it has come to light that in Punjab alone there are 83,000 women who got married in Pakistan and instead of taking Pakistani citizenship, they are giving birth to children here. Just think how many there would be in the country?

This is a huge loophole in our system. Think about how many ISI agents we are nurturing and that too at our own expense.

Think about the patriotism of those Muslim families who are marrying their daughters to Pakistani Muslims despite the presence of 30 crore Muslims in India.

These women want to get married in Pakistan but they do not want to give up their Indian citizenship and they also want to give birth to children in India and make them citizens of India too so that they can work for Pakistan in the future.

This is a very dangerous situation. After taking action against Pakistan, it is very important to take action against the traitors living in the country.

திரு அண்ணாமலை வெளியிட்ட ஆவணங்களின்படி, துப்புறவு தொழிலாளி பெறும் ஒரு வாகனத்தின் விலை = 61.84 லட்ச ரூபாய்

வாகனத்தை வைத்து தொழில் தொடங்க மூலதனம் = 4 லட்சம்

தேவைப்படும் மொத்த தொகை = 65. 84 லட்சம்

இந்த 65.84 லட்சத்தில் தமிழ்நாடு அரசு தரும் மானியம் = 25.47 லட்சம்

வங்கி அளிக்கும் கடன் = 40.37 லட்சம்

மொத்தம் = 65.84 லட்சம்.

(இந்தத் திட்டத்தின் கீழ் ஆகும் மொத்த செலவில் மத்திய அரசு 50 சதவிகித மானியம் தருகிறது என்பது கூடுதல் தகவல்)

ஆக. செல்வப்பெருந்தகை கை காட்டும் பினாமிகள், 10 பைசா முதலீடு இல்லாமல், 61.84 லட்ச ரூபாய் வாகனத்தையும், அதை வைத்து தொழில் தொடங்க 4 லட்சமும் அரசிடமும், வங்கியிடமும் இருந்தும் பெறுகிறார்கள்.

இந்த வாகனம் பெறுவோர்க்கு எரிபொருள் மற்றும் ஊதியம் வழங்கும் வகையில் ஒரு மாதத்துக்கு, ஒரு வாகனத்துக்கு, 87,500 ரூபாய் ஆகும் என்று அவர்கள் அளித்த project report கூறுகிறது.

அதே project reportல், CMWSSB தந்த வேலை ஒப்பந்தத்தின்படி, ஒரு மாதத்துக்கு, ஒரு வாகனத்துக்கு குறைந்தபட்ச வருவாய் 2.28 லட்சம். செலவு போக, ஒரு மாதத்துக்கு நிகர லாபம் 1,37,500 ரூபாய்.

இந்த 1,37,500 ரூபாய் உண்மையான சுத்திகரிப்பு தொழிலாளிகளுக்கு செல்கிறதா, அல்லது செல்வப் பெருந்தகையின் பினாமிகளுக்கு செல்கிறதா என்பதுதான் கேள்வி.

இந்தத் திட்டத்தை தமிழக அரசின் TAHDCO மூலம் செயல்படுத்தாமல், செல்வப்பெருந்தகையின் மூலம் செயல்படுத்த வேண்டும் என்று பெரும் முனைப்பு காட்டியது தமிழக அரசின் தலைமைச்செயலர் முருகானந்தம் ஐஏஎஸ் என்றும் தகவல்கள் கூறுகின்றன.

இந்தக் கேள்விகளை எழுப்பியதற்குத்தான் வீட்டினுள் மலத்தை ஊற்றுகிறார் செல்வப்பெருந்தகை.

DMK Minister Thiru KKSSR Ramachandran is known for hitting women with petition when they seek solutions to their problems.

Today, he sped at lightning speed after being questioned by our @BJP4TamilNadu functionary Smt Meena avl about why he called for a Gram Sabha meeting and converted it into a protest against the Central Govt demanding funds for MGNREGA.

The people of TN know well that under the MGNREGA, TN has received the highest allocation of ₹39,339 Crores in our country in the last four years, and the DMK Govt has turned a blind eye towards complaints of irregularities in the scheme's execution and the misappropriation of funds by corrupt DMK functionaries.

The people of TN have had enough of DMK’s drama.

Tourism in Goa is down in dumps

Foreign tourists have abandoned the state already. Look at 2019 v 2023 numbers. Russians and Brits who used to visit annually have opted for Sri Lanka instead.

Indian tourists still visiting, but soon likely to ditch it as word spreads about exploitation of tourists while there are so many cheaper comparable locations abroad

[Saiswaroopa Iyer @Sai_swaroopa]

Came across a couple of young working professionals who could not go home for Deepavali because

1) Train tickets not confirmed
2) Flight ticket prices over the roof

To one of them who I know orders food almost everyday, I gently said she could recover the flight ticket if she cooked food half the time. The question she asked me back was something which we as society needs to ponder. I will try summarizing her rant in my own words.

"Why did I study like crazy all through my high school and college to undergo same struggle as my parents akka? Cook everyday, travel by bus, face traffic everyday, buy dresses on discounts, prefer unbranded stuff to save money..... Everyone tells me this now. And while studying all elders promised me the moon about lifestyle. Now I feel cheated of my adolescent years and forced into some corporate bonded labour! Same struggle in glass buildings!"

I was all fired up to unsheath the Purushartha framework but thought the time was not right and it was best to lend a listening ear for the moment.

While acknowledging all the millennial impetuousness she showed, I felt we overglorified a corporate career to generation after generation, shook their teen years, uprooted them from their roots. This happened to a point that a large section of young population think those glass buildings are more respectable than being a part of family trade, SMEs and localpreneurship.

The same urban young gets exploited right from dishonest autowallas, PG owners and every other person they transact with. Then we blame these kids for raising the living costs in cities and
are now lecturing them to be prudent.

Our way of shaping younger aspirations needs a huge shift. Our way of creating value and employment needs to stop anchoring on Metro cities. Here's where I have a deep respect for @svembu. Thanks to him, at least some employees of one company arent away from their families.

But this change is needed at a much ramped up level. What all and what more can be done is the question.

Heartwarming immigrant banking story: The State Bank of Texas is owned and mostly run by Patels.

Poor Indian immigrant Chan Patel comes to Stanford for grad school, becomes a successful hotel entrepreneur. He finds that lenders are unfairly discriminating against Indians & decides to open a bank to solve the gap.

He needed $2M of capital to start, so he crowdfunded from F&F, gave lifelong directorships to everyone who committed $100k (mostly other Patels who still form the board today).

They opened the bank on Black Monday (1987) with a single paid employee (& a bunch of unpaid family members who took bank training courses!). They've never had an unprofitable quarter, & now have $2.7B in assets.

The business is still mostly lending to Indian-Americans in the budget to mid range motels/hotel segment. This is a very large niche - Indians own 60% of the hotels in America, and most of the owners are Patels... AKA the "Patel Motel Cartel"

Why was Vinesh Phogat disqualified? 🤔

- Overweight by 2.15 kg, not just 150 grams.

- Original category: 53 kg, a tough category with the world's best wrestlers.

- Focused more on politics than practice, trying to bring down the GOI.

- Bullied the Indian Wrestling Council for the 50 kg category as it was seen as easier to win. That is why she reached finals so easily.

- In March, barely made it at 52 kg, the Olympic maximum allowed overweight.

- Two weight checks before finals showed she gained 2.15 kg. So disqualified.

- She couldn't do couldn't bully the French nor her tantrums swayed the Olympics council. GOI tried their best, but Athletes are responsible for their weights.

- Crores of taxpayer money spent on training, coaches, surgeries down the drain.

- 1.4 billion Indians disappointed; BJP supporters are sad, Pidis can't mock Modi as they did last two days.

கள்ளக்குறிச்சியில், கள்ளச்சாராயத்தினால் 35க்கும் அதிகமான உயிர்கள் பறிபோயிருக்கின்றன என்ற செய்தி மிகுந்த அதிர்ச்சியும் வேதனையும் அளிக்கிறது. கள்ளக்குறிச்சிக்கு நேரில் சென்று, உயிரிழந்தவர்கள் குடும்பத்தினரையும், மருத்துவமனையில் சிகிச்சை பெறுபவர்களையும் சந்தித்து ஆறுதல் தெரிவிக்க உள்ளோம். அவர்கள் குடும்பத்தினருக்கு @BJP4Tamilnadu எப்போதும் உறுதுணையாக இருக்கும்.

திமுக ஆட்சியில் கடந்த இரண்டு ஆண்டுகளில் நடைபெற்றுள்ள கள்ளச்சாராய உயிரிழப்புகள், 1980 காலகட்டத்தில் ஏற்பட்டதைப் போல, தமிழகம் நாற்பது ஆண்டுகள் பின்னோக்கிச் செல்கிறதா என்ற அச்சத்தை ஏற்படுத்துகிறது.

நேற்றைய தினம், மதுவிலக்கு மற்றும் ஆயத்தீர்வை அமைச்சரை பதவி விலக்கம் செய்ய, முதலமைச்சர் திரு @MKStalin அவர்களைக் கேட்டுக் கொண்டிருந்தோம். ஆனால், கடந்த இரண்டு ஆண்டுகளில் சுமார் 60 உயிர்கள் கள்ளச்சாராயத்தினால் பறிபோனதற்குப் பின்னரும், முதலமைச்சராகத் தொடர தனக்குத் தார்மீக உரிமை உள்ளதா என்பதை, அவர் எண்ணிப் பார்க்க வேண்டும்.

தமிழகம் முழுவதும் கள்ளச்சாராய விற்பனையைத் தடுக்காமல், பல உயிர்கள் பலியாகும் வண்ணம், தொடர்ந்து மெத்தனப் போக்கில் செயல்பட்டு வரும் திமுக அரசின் கையாலாகாத்தனத்தைக் கண்டித்து, வரும் ஜூன் 22 அன்று, @BJP4Tamilnadu சார்பாக, மாநிலம் தழுவிய ஆர்ப்பாட்டம் நடைபெற உள்ளது என்பதை அறிவித்துக் கொள்கிறேன்.
