On the road - the road safety messages are out of this world

Here are some glimpses
If you knew you are driving towards death, would you still drive faster?
Safety on road means
Safe tea at home
Peep-peep
Don’t sleep
You get everything in life, even those you don’t want, when on the wrong side
We are living on this planet as if we have another one to live on.
What are some you have encountered. Share please.

The art of cold emailing

A thread...
Cold emailing is the act of sending an email (or a DM) to someone who doesn’t know you (hence the word, cold!)

Every day I get 300+ emails, most from those I do not know, and a shocking number of them are poorly written.

Here are 10 things that work for emails that I reply to
1. A different (but not aggressive) subject line

Ask yourself, what is the most likely subject line that EVERYONE will tend to write.
And then DO NOT write that.

What works?
Personalization (I think Vidur and Uzma will love this)
Intrigue (This is when I first saw you)

10 ways I am running my current startup differently from the ones before

A thread...
Difference #1
Bootstrapped as against raising money

nearbuy.com was a venture funded company. We raised $43Mn from top investors, but I couldn’t give them a return that I would be proud of. In the process, learning how raising money works but also doesn’t work
My current startup is bootstrapped.
I do not intend to raise money for it.
It has been profitable from Day 1 and that is the way I hope it remains.

I have raised money from customers.

9 harsh truths about relationships

A thread...
Harsh Truth #1
There is a high chance you will outgrow your best friends from childhood.
And you wouldn't want to be friends with them.

Do not feel guilty.
Wanting to maintain a distance from someone you do not relate to anymore doesn't mean you don't care about them.

It just means you care about the relationship you have with yourself more than the one you have with them.

10 lies I was told about money

A thread...
Lie #1
Money is the root cause of all evil

From an early age, thinking about money was not encouraged.
It was the unsaid rule that money is important, but thinking about it is evil.
After all, money was the reason behind the fights, the wars, the disagreements.
Now I know, it is not money that is the cause. It is the importance we attach to it, in our lives.

Money is simply a medium of transaction.
When it becomes an emotion, is when it consumes us.

And that is true for all things in life!

My Productivity Hacks

A thread...
Productivity Hack #1
Not try to remember anything

I consciously and obsessively try to NOT remember things.
So that my mind dispenses the least amount of energy in remembering tasks or even context.
Hence, I carry a notebook with me always.
I take notes like a school student
I put tasks in a calendar
I send myself emails in the future

My mind's energy should be spent in thinking.
Not remembering!

15 quotes that I go back to often

A thread...
I am not who I think I am
I am not who you think I am
I am who I think you think I am
"She must think I'm stupid"
"They must think I'm petty"
"He must think I'm fat"

Our entire identity is woven around what we think others think of us.
We may never get to know what they think.
Yet we never fail to form an opinion.
And live our entire life, on that opinion of ours
