Stay away from these 3 kinds of people

1/ Those who make fun of your insecurities and when you are hurt, they tell you that you are too sensitive.

2/ Those who do not contribute to the relationship, but expect you to be invested and engaged in the relationship.

3/ Those who dismiss your success as luck or destiny and never acknowledge your hard work or capability.

We may not always get to choose our relationships.
But the worst tragedy is to choose the wrong ones, despite knowing they are wrong.

Don't do this to yourself.

Vote for Make Epic Money

Book I am reading this week

​

Started reading Accelerating India's Development: A State-Led Roadmap for Effective Governance by Karthik Muralidharan. An incredibly powerful read analyzing India's growth, its current status, its current failings, and what needs to change for India to truly realize its potential. I love such takes because they are established on years of research and global benchmarking. While the past doesn't always predict the future, it certainly is a leading indicator of it.
Pick this book if you like country governance, political economics, and data-based findings.

My 3rd book, Make Epic Money, has sold 1,31,000+ copies in India with a 4.4+ rating. You can buy it in Hindi, English, Marathi, Audio, and Kindle here.
The book has also been converted into a video course (in Hindi and English) - that you can check out here.

Here is an alphabetical list of all books I have shared in this newsletter so far.

Results of last week's question

Most people rate their parents 9 or 10 - which is understandable. Notice, however, the younger ones seem a little disappointed with their parents, which with age, tends to reduce and become overwhelmingly positive.
That is the summary of our relationship with our parents.

​My response?​
I would give my parents an 8/10 - they did an incredible job given how young, inexperienced, and financially weak they were.

2 quotes I wish to share

The biggest competition to schools today are not other schools or online education.
It is parents’ desire to make their kid's lives comfortable.

​

A routine isn't discipline around tasks.
It is discipline around emotions.

1 new thing I learnt this week

This year's US election was the first presidential election since 1976 where a Bush, Clinton or Biden is not on the ballot.
Talk about generational dominance, wow!
