@LifeMathMoney People don’t usually hate success itself.
They hate seeing someone take risks they were too afraid to take and then calling the success “just luck.”
If you are a successful person, and you're around broke people
Claim that all of your success is a result of *luck*
This prevents them from resenting you too much
Remember everyone thinks they have equal talent to you, even if they have no results to show for it
If you break the illusion and imply that you work harder and/or are more talented, you will be hated
@ThetaVegaCap I think Indians are not optimizing for career upside. They are optimizing for predictable stress.
That’s why “stablity” wins even when the upside is lower.
“Govt Job vs Private Job debate is endless 😄
But honestly…
Some private jobs today offer:
🔥Better work-life balance
🔥Faster salary growth
🔥Performance-based promotions
🔥Freedom to switch anytime
Meanwhile many people still run only behind “sarkari naukri” tag 👀
What would you choose today:
Government Job or High Paying Private Job?

@Priyansh_31Dec Older siblings are usually right about pattern recognition.
But blindly copying them is also risky because half their advice comes from surviving a completely different economy.
For all the younger siblings.
Please listen to what your elder siblings tell you. They have been through a lot of things themselves and when they question you for something, understand that it comes from a place of concern and love.
If your elder sibling is in the same field as you and has made it to a good point, then it is simply a no brainer to just do exactly what they say. It would only prevent you from making a fool of yourself later.
@karthik2k2 China treats high-stakes exams like national infrastructure while in India its like an annual event.
I think a country that can run elections for 150 cr people can definitely conduct one exam securely.
Number of students appearing for Gaokao in China 🇨🇳- 13.3 million
Number of students appearing for NEET in India 🇮🇳- 2.2 million.
No leak or controversies in China. If scale alone is the problem, why are they able to do and we aren’t ?
@suhani_09 Because most resumes are written like personal archives instead of sales pages. People are not paying for grammar. They’re paying for signal clarity.
@Arubekind Yes. A child who feels safe saying “I’m mentally tired” is already doing better than most adults who only realize it after burnout breaks something important.
@dflieb Most domains are less gatekept than people think.
But staying interested long enough to do 500 boring reps without needing applause every week is where most people give up.
Founders overestimate how hard it is to become a top 100 expert on most subjects.
For most things you need to solve, there’s usually a very clear path: just go do the work, obsessively, and become friends with everyone else doing it.
My friend lost his ₹35 LPA job in recent layoffs.
He moved to his home village.
Family: “Everything is gone in minutes.”
But he had prepared quietly.
• ₹15L FD in wife’s name • ₹15L FD in child’s name • ₹15L FD in parents name • ₹30L FD in his own name
2 years later…
@Nithya_Shrii A lot of people stay 2 years too long because they want certainty before leaving.
By the time they resign their energy is already gone and the company is also ready to move on.
The best time to resign is when you’re at the peak of your performance. You submit your resignation proudly, honour the contract by ensuring all handovers are completed, and leave on positive terms, to the point where they even beg you to stay. But your decision is firm, as you look forward to taking on new challenges outside.
One underrated product skill is noticing where users hesitate for 2 seconds.
That tiny pause usually means confusion, extra effort or lack of trust.
Most drop-offs happen there quietly.
@LifeMathMoney A lot of people become “losers” temporarily after one bad year, failed startup, layoff or family problem.
The smarter filter is character and self awareness, not current status.
The difference between someone who understands the game and someone who doesn't
is that the person who does not understand the game usually takes pride in investing time and resources into losers simply because they are "friends"
People who understand the game know that time and resources are limited, and should not be wasted on idiots
