What those forty seconds reveal about the world we are living in right now. And about all of us.kaviarasu.com/2026/04/why-di…

The brain writes the story before the facts arrive. We share what we need to be true. The fact-check always travels slower than the feeling. It always will.

A small dog on a highway in China. Leading six others home. Freeing them from those who meant them harm. Ninety million people watched. Ninety million believed. None of it was true. 🧵

The NYT had a sharp essay this week on "high agency". The Silicon Valley idea that some people are captains of their lives whilst others are passive drifters. Worth reading. And it doesn't go far enough.

It doesn't need a podcast.

The word the culture keeps avoiding is character. Built slowly. Often through unglamorous work, without an audience. It has direction baked into it.

Strong coffee. Strong thoughts. Suspicious coincidence. That's the whole plan, really. Always has been.

Organisations are no different. The transformation programmes with the bold names and the launch events — they almost never deliver the thing on the poster. The quiet, consistent, week-on-week chipping away often does.

Last week had rough edges. Some things done well. Some done too late. One probably shouldn't have happened at all. New week. Stronger coffee. Slightly wiser version of the same person

@anuradhagoyal Super glad that it resonated. Dealing with it on a daily basis.
