I have shut down my 100 crores course business. And converted it into a subscription! Between making more money and helping more people - the choice was super clear to me! WebVeda now gives access to ALL courses, for the price of one course. As a WebVeda member you will get: - ALL courses, present and future (we add a course every day, every week, every month) - An exclusive members-only community - Personalized jobs based on your skills
 100% refund policy, as always. Skills. Community. Jobs. Growth as a subscription.

All 5 lakh existing WebVeda students have been upgraded to the membership for FREE. I want every person in this country with a phone and an internet connection to have the same learning, networking and job opportunities in life as someone born into privilege. Where they were born, how much they earn, what language they speak - none of such things should ever matter.

"I’m trying to prove myself wrong more than anybody else." Novak Djokovic: The Wolf in Winter is streaming August 20.

In India we rarely buy products for ourselves. The bigger car. The destination wedding. The international school. The latest phone. coaching class for a 4-year-old who cannot yet spell coaching. If we go back to our last big purchase and be honest about who we were really buying it for - we will realize that half the time it was not for us. It is for an imaginary panel of uncles and neighbours and friendly - who are quietly judging your life. Scoring it. You are free the day it never even occurs to you to tell anyone about a big purchase.

@myunforcedera He will grow into it. This isn’t an innate irreversible trait you are talking about - it is something one can learn should one wish to. The question isn’t whether sinner is marketable. The question is - does he wish to be. The day he decides, he will be.

Sinner is an amazing tennis phenom, on his way to possibly becoming one of the all-time greats. There’s absolutely no denying that. But there’s also something else that’s undeniable. He’s not marketable. Some people have It. Rafa Nadal, Roger Federer, to a lesser extent Novak Djokovic (those of us who’ve been following him from the start know that he had to grow into It), Bjorn Borg, Johnny Mac, Carlos Alcaraz, Jimmy Connors, Marat Safin… I could go on but you get the idea. These guys ooze charisma, personality, flair, coolness, swagger, aura.. they have It, or they earned It (like Nole). Jannik Sinner doesn’t have It. He just doesn’t. Maybe he’ll grow into the role of The Man like Novak, but so far — it’s tough. He’s the socially awkward introvert who is forced to be marketed and propped up because he’s so undeniably brilliant at playing tennis, but you can just feel it’s forced. None of the tennis media have the courage to admit this of course, so it’s a taboo subject that no one wants to grapple with. Which only makes it worse because how will he grow into It? Novak at least had the media against him and he ended up savoring the villain role after that phase of wanting praise passed and that’s when he became The Man. But how will Sinner learn and grow into a charismatic personality if the tennis media coddles him all the time? For the sake of the game, I hope he grows into the role.

The craziest thing about relationships Strangers get our patience. And the closest ones get our anger. And maybe that is actually the test. Real is the relationship that has seen your worst and still stayed.

@thefurqanstory @ericitaIiano Absolutely. 17th July booked already

@warikoo @ericitaIiano Going to odyssey sir?

still chasing this high tbh

@avikaul @priyakumar @HarperCollinsIN @AnupamPKher @rahulkanwal Such an incredible story. Grateful to have had an early glimpse into the worded journey. Can’t wait to hold the book in my hands

The Next Mountain is the #1 Best Seller on Amazon India in Film & Television & Cinema & Broadcast. At seventeen I lost my home and studied in a tent in a refugee camp. Thank you to @priyakumar, to @HarperCollinsIN , to every colleague who gave a displaced youth a chance, and to everyone who bought a copy. Thank you to @AnupamPKher @rahulkanwal @warikoo for your support. None of this would have been possible without your support. amazon.in/dp/9373073397

For any knowledge business, the reverse information paradox has always held. We have given software our IP for decades. Excel and Google Sheets hold more institutional knowledge than most companies realise. Every model, every assumption, every hard won formula that someone built at 2am. The difference from AI is that none of it ever went anywhere. The product stayed static. It stored what we gave it. It never learned from it. Because storage does not compound. Learning does. That is the shift AI brings. And the reason it happened with AI, imo is because it began as a conversation. The chat broke all boundaries. We fed it reports, decks, medical records, contracts, half formed thoughts we had not told anyone. because the magic of AI only showed up when we shared. And then we corrected it when it was wrong. That correction is the real asset. It is how we think, what we value, what good looks like to us. Nobody was ever going to type that into a spreadsheet. This exchange is not new. Humans have given away information for centuries, in exchange for productivity, convenience and speed. What is new is who is on the other side of it. This time a system so powerful, it could replace us? Your answer, Satya is that enterprises need a trust boundary. Their own evals, their own memory, their own right to learn. Fair enough. Firms will get that. They have lawyers, leverage and procurement teams. Individuals will not. The 800 million people teaching these models to be useful, one correction at a time, have no boundary, no consent and no claim on what they helped build. That is the asymmetry inside the asymmetry. What happens next, I do not know. But I would watch who gets a boundary drawn around them, and who does not. PS: none of this ironically stops me from sharing every possible dimension of me and my businesses with AI 😂

@Shubhanshuuuuu Study and apply

@warikoo What about if someone is in teenage?

The advice that works for you at 22 can destroy you at 35. Works for 12hrs a day. Look for growth instead of stability. Keep switching jobs. Take risks with your money. It is ok to sacrifice now, for tomorrow. Good advice comes with an expiry date nobody bothers to print on the label.

@RamanRjha4647 :)) I remember blushing like a kid when a person I adored liked one ny posts So relatable

It feels next level good when someone whose books you have read likes your comment. Has this happened to anyone else? Read his books guyss..it's insanely practical in life.

@nikitabier Online is the only place mean people can thrive, Nikita. In real life they find no takers. What you say is true, but for the mean-spirited, this is their only playground.

Don’t be mean online. Life is too short.

@Bullish_Batsman If you are the founder, 100%

@warikoo Apply this rule to office meetings too. Highly recommended 😂

Honest advice for those who struggle to finish books It is just as much the book's responsibility to hold your attention as it is yours to give it attention. So if the book is mediocre, lacks excitement, isn't valuable - feel free to drop it. You don't have to finish all books you start!

@kethan228921 Advice is for everyone below 12 months

@warikoo Total BS. In that case, you may not learn from highly technical books. Attention should be decided by the perceived value in the book not if it is interesting. Unless this advice is for little children

@Realdineshstar Read the ones you WANT to read. Not the ones the world tells you to read

@warikoo It's hard to start any book for me Suggest some good tips how to engage with books interestingly

@initishkrsinha Here did those expectations come from, in the first place? As a kid you never felt any pressure to perform. You just loved playing. You loved the game. Until you were handed the rules and told - you don’t play to love the game. You play to win the game.

There is definitely truth in the first part. We adapt to achievements surprisingly fast, and comparison can make even meaningful wins feel temporary. I'm less convinced it's because every company wants us to feel behind. A lot of that pressure also comes from our own expectations and the tendency to measure ourselves against others.

You chase a title for a year, enjoy it for a week, then find someone one step ahead and feel behind all over again. The finish line keeps moving because that is what every company wants you to feel.

@manishvarma43 Genuinely enjoyed making this one. Thanks for acknowledging Manish

I was watching this video of @warikoo In our country, who are confused They have options and this is the reason of confusion When you go out and try to figure out by yourself and become responsible of your life that day everything starts changes

@sumit_codes_ I love this take

@warikoo One of the best career lessons I learned is that your manager shouldn't have to discover your impact by accident. Good work speaks for itself only if someone can actually hear it. Visibility isn't bragging, it's communication. #CareerGrowth

The most underpaid person in most companies is the one who quietly fixes things without anybody noticing. No drama, no email, no "pleased to announce" on Linkedin! The most overpaid announces every fire he puts out, having started half of them. At appraisal time if only one could get rewarded, usually the louder one will win. So what do the quiet ones do? Become loud? No! Learn to leave evidence. Something as basic as an email to your manager at the end of every week. Here is what I did Here is what I planned to, but couldn't Here is where I need help Being valuable and being seen are two different skills. A career needs both.
