The story of 2 cars and exactly a decade in between. So much has changed and something's have remained the same
Circle of life keeps spinning #mahindra#parenting#circleoflife@anandmahindra you will get a kick out of this 😊
This Children's Day, I reflect on my journey as a youth, educator & parent in a chat with @SubhasisMishra. My kids constantly remind me that I don't have all the answers - they show me the way ahead. Full podcast here: https://t.co/7RTrm1D7KH
Everytime there is a rape that makes headlines, political leaders say “don’t politicise it”. Today Mamata Banerjee has said the same. We heard similar rubbish after Nirbhaya, Kathua, Hathras. Sorry but rape MUST be politicised. Women’s safety MUST be a political issue and we MUST hold politicians accountable.
Controlling parenting isn't good for kids. It puts their well-being at risk.
238 studies, 38 countries, 126k ppl: Kids with controlling parents have higher rates of depression and anxiety. Kids with autonomy-supportive parents are happier.
Freedom is a foundation of well-being.
A perspective on turning thirty from @sama : The days are long but the decades are short. Make it count, don't forget family, whether or not money can buy happiness, it can buy freedom, be around smart, interesting, ambitious people, learn voraciously. Also, lack of money is very stressful. Be a doer, not a talker. Exercise. Eat well. Sleep.

For two years of our early married life, @DCrittenden1 and I lived in a Manhattan apartment owned by a successful psychiatrist. He kept his office on the ground floor of the same building. Hour after hour, limousines idled at his curb waiting for his patients to emerge. 1/x
To celebrate turning 60, I sat down with seven women I admire—Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Billie Jean King, Reese Witherspoon, Ava DuVernay, and Megan Rapinoe—to ask them about their biggest life transitions. Check out the full series on YouTube!😊
To those who never wavered, to those who refused to doubt, to those who always believed, my heart is full of gratitude.
Thank you for the trust you put in Joe—now it’s time to put that trust in Kamala.
Love,
Jill
Larry Ellison on what made Steve Jobs great
“Steve was my best friend for about 25 years. We were neighbors in Woodside and his peacock wandered onto my property and woke me up. His girlfriend had given him a peacock and I came over to complain.”
Steve replied: “You don’t like that bird either?”
Larry recalls how Steve made him watch 73 different versions of Toy Story:
“I said I’m not coming over if you make me watch Toy Story again… Now I know the new version is 4% better than the one I saw last week, but I’m not watching this thing again. And he’d say: ‘Larry, you won’t believe how different the shadows look.’ But that was Steve. Until it was perfect. And then once it was perfect, he moved onto the next problem.”
Larry believes obsessing over a product until it was perfect was a huge part of what made Steve Jobs great:
“If you want to know you’re like Steve Jobs, it’s very simple. You’re unable to think about anything other than serious problems at work. That’s all you can do, and you obsess about it until you solve it. And then you move on to the next thing. And you obsess about that until you solve it… If you have that kind of obsession combined with Picasso’s aesthetic and Edison’s inventiveness, then you are the next Steve Jobs.”
He continues:
“Apple became the most valuable company on earth and it wasn’t even one of Steve’s goals. He wasn’t trying to be rich. He wasn’t trying to be famous. He wasn’t trying to be powerful. He was obsessed with the creative process and building something beautiful.”

Lesson 👉 Everyone is different
For my life what Niev & Nitara want is more important than what Papa wants 🙏
What a wonderful message from Nelson Mandela, a great leader and a true Gandhian. “After I became president, I asked my escort to go to a restaurant for lunch. We sat down and each of us asked what we wanted.
On the front table, there was a man waiting to be served. When he was served, I said to one of my soldiers: go and ask that gentleman to join us. The soldier went and conveyed my invitation to him. The man got up, took his plate and sat down right next to me.
While he ate his hands trembled constantly and he did not lift his head from his food. When we finished, he said goodbye without looking at me, I shook his hand and he left.
The soldier told me:
Madiba that man must have been very ill, seeing as his hands didn't stop shaking while he ate.-
Absolutely no! the reason for his trembling is another.
Then I told him:
That man was the warden of the prison where I stayed. After he tortured me, I screamed and cried asking for some water and he came humiliated me, laughed at me and instead of giving me water, he urinated in my head.
He is not sick, he was afraid that I, now president of South Africa, would send him to prison and do to him what he did to me. But I'm not like that, this conduct is not part of my character, nor of my ethics.
′′Minds that seek revenge destroy states, while those that seek reconciliation build nations. Walking out the door to my freedom, I knew that if I didn't leave all the anger, hatred and resentment behind me, I would still be a prisoner..... Nelson Mandela”
