Every track, session, and playbook was planned meticulously by a team of founders and practitioners. Even the hike, cricket, and all that yummy Indian food that made you feel like you never left home had a purpose. @saasboomi Caravan was a labour of love saasboomi.org/labour-of-love…

1/25 Want to know why most people struggle with meditation? They're trying to force their mind to be quiet BEFORE finding joy. That's backwards - and there's a better way, backed by the Buddha's original teachings. 🧵

You would think a global company like @marksandspencer would have better customer support. Exchanged multiple emails, screenshots over a simple login issue, and finally gave up and raised a request to delete my account, and that is also not happening after emails and calls!

Yes; a lots of terrific Malayalam movies in the recent years and yes; Kerala is India's subtle film hub: economist.com/culture/2024/0… But Manjummel boys is far from the poster child of this movement. Please tell me some of you found it melodramatic.

This is also Bangalore. This morning. My street ten minutes away from the World Trade Centre. One of the many reasons I love this quaint city ♥️

"Perfection is impossible. In the 1,526 singles matches I played in my career, I won almost 80% of those matches. But what percentage of points did I win? 54% In other words, even top ranked tennis players win barely more than half the points they play. When you lose ever second point on average, you learn not to dwell on every shot. You teach yourself to think: 'Okay, I double faulted...it's only a point.' 'Okay, I came to the net and I got passed again...it's only a point.' Even a great shot, an overhead backhand smash that ends up on ESPN's top 10 playlist – that too is just a point. Here's why I'm telling you this. When you're playing a point, it has to be the most important thing in the world. And it is. But when it's behind you, it's behind you. This mindset is crucial – because it frees you to fully commit to the next point with intensity, clarity, and focus." –@rogerfederer

Six months ago, a viral infection left me paralysed from the waist down and numb in the lower limbs. I learned to walk again, although it’s an awkward gait. #TransverseMyelitis #Paraplegia happiesthealth.com/testimoni…

Last week, I lost a dear one. Someone who inspired me and many others, to live a little better, love a little better. I was trying to make sense of the sorrow, so turned to books and meditation - as I do when in doubt or grief. Came across this beautiful poem.

Everything within a company eventually boils down to the culture. We got @verghese_ancy of invideo AI to write about what's been working magic at @invideoOfficial
Probably one of the many reasons why we didn't think twice about hosting an article on what it takes for such a rapidly scaling #startup to define and harness #WorkCulture. 👇 READ: saasboomi.org/saas/leadershi… #AI @invideoOfficial #SaaS

Computer vision brings self-driving cars to mind. But an Indian startup @toothlens is using it to spot tiny cavities in teeth with nothing more than smartphone images to train its AI model saasboomi.org/ai-dentistry/ @vmalu @prasanna_says @saasboomi

"Human reason left to its own devices is apt to engage in a number of fallacies and systematic errors, so if we want to make better decisions in our personal lives and as a society, we ought to be aware of these biases and seek workarounds.” RIP Dr Daniel Kahneman.

None of my international credit/debit cards from India are working for international subscriptions - RBI mandate issues is what banks say. Please tell me how have you solved this issue for yourself.
