Wrote something, not as consistent with this as I would like, but I am hoping that it does become a habit soon. This one is on how I rarely win board games (reality is I rarely play any more), but found joy in playing for fun, which came with some unintended consequences.

The cost and accessibility may make you think twice. But, the country is super friendly, easy to drive around and truly magical. We planned and executed this itinerary ourselves :). More photos/spam/videos on IG, a reel from The Shire for LOTR buffs. instagram.com/reel/DSDYaGUEx…

Was special to see the effort that communities are making to preserve safe living spaces for species that are slowly finding it difficult to co-habit the planet. We saw Kiwis, Penguin nests (2 different types), Giant Albatross nests and Whales, besides dolphins putting on a show

Spent the last 2 weeks in Middle Earth aka New Zealand. Amazing country that gives you a taste of natural beauty and memorable experiences. We drove 3700 KMs over 12 days across both islands to marvel at nature and get up close with unique wildlife (Penguins, Albatross, Whales!)

@arindam___paul Don't know whether he would call himself a "performance marketing guy", but tagging @bbharadwaj in case the two of you haven't connected, can strongly vouch for the other parts of your question :). Pretty sure there is going to be enough notes to be exchanged.

Who are the absolute best performance marketing guys in India with very strong first principle thinking? Looking to connect and exchange notes

Urging & insisting fellow Malayalees to watch #Lokah before spoilers ruin it. The hype you may hear is real, you should be excited to watch it on a big screen. A well made fantasy movie built on a world rooted in Kerala. Already my favourite cinematic universe.

Once again, I am going to let 11 guys on a football pitch ruin my weekends. New season, new colours and we wait to see whether it is the same Arsenal or a new one this time around. #COYG

@airtelindia @perplexity_ai It is for all users and not just Airtel Black users, correct? Why does the Thanks app keep taking me to the upgrade page?

You x Us x @perplexity_ai - collab of the year!

@aditi1002 A journey that you should be proud of Aditi, I am sure you have learnt and grown a lot through all the interesting twists that it took. Enjoy the down time that is coming up and I am sure whatever comes next is going to be exciting :).

This one’s hard to write. 🥲🥲🥲 I was 23 when we started Locale with no safety net and no personal runway. 😱 5 years, 3 pivots, a pandemic, a recession, and countless late nights later... we're stepping away.

Sinner vs Alcaraz

These last 30 mins (after the 5+ hours before it) has seen the level go up with every single shot. What an insane match this has been.

I am a guy who watched the club’s matches in Europe in a hotel room holed up with 40+ other people in Pilani, a village in rural India. So this is special, you better make it to next round!

During a vacation in Amsterdam , I chose watching @Arsenal over every other permissible option to get high and be out of my mind. #COYG , you better win this !

@HrishikeshDub11 Some days are worth the struggle and the caffeine that goes in 😁.

@madnavin No seriously how are we supposed to wake up in 5 hours and go to work after that? Abhi toh 1 ghanta highlights dekhni hain

Arsenal fans losing some sleep, but living their dreams tonight. A magical Champions League performance, one for the ages.

Fun day learning and growing with @PaddyUpton1 today. Great workshop on what leadership means in a modern business. Obviously, filled with a ton of insights from coaching sports teams at the highest level and what we can learn from them. Cricket nuggets are always a bonus!

@drbtrading101 Welcome to the rabbit hole :). Unfortunately, I no longer own cosmic encounter. I do sell some of my games every once in a while , but nothing planned currently.

@madnavin Hey. I think I'm also following your footsteps into the dungeons.. 🤣 I saw a couple of epic games in your collection & am very tempted to ask. Are you planning to sell? Cosmic encounter specially. 🫣🫣

A thread on #BoardGames – a hobby/rabbit hole which I have been falling deeper and deeper into over the last 18 months. Always had an interest and played the introductory ones (aka gateway) like Catan, Pandemic, Splendor & Ticket to Ride. Read on for a sneak peek (1/n)

@ggmarquez Searched for good puns , but all predict that they will likely be flops :).

@madnavin Are you not posting on Cyclops ?

Decided to have some fun explaining parts of my job in memes. Here is what it looked like.

@Pranavenstein Looks like they work magic behind the scenes as well , so maybe yes ? :).

@madnavin So, RevOps is to GTM what DevOps is to engineering?

If the above isn't Latin to you, I wrote about why I am enjoying a role that I used to intensely dislike when I was on the other side as a seller. Not sure if it's the magic of SaaS, but I am having fun! P.S: You won't find more memes in the post. linkedin.com/pulse/demystif…

Business Operations & Deal Desk - a function that can truly be a sales productivity multiplier when done right, but often is just lost due to the complexity things outside their control (products, SKUs, client deliverables).They better take control to provide clarity to everyone!
