(1/) @gauravkapur is contagious. How I wish if he had a podcast on his life learnings. I would happily pay for it.
A thread

(2/) Thinking content as a commodity/Product.
While you can put all your heart & soul while creating it, treating it as a product can make it reach places.

(4/) "You can only waste time if you have it" - my personal favorite quote from this talk.
(5/) Two ways to make wealth:
- Using the power of compounding over a longer period of time which has greater chances of success, (The Warren Buffet Style)
- Trying for the moonshot, the entrepreneurial way.
The former one seems to be a far more rewarding way - @thetanmay

(6/) When it comes to business, you have your own weaknesses & strengths. Acknowledge & be honest about it
In business, "Further optimize your strengths and outsource your weaknesses." Absolute Gold.

(8/) "You are the best bluechip stock you can ever invest in". - @gauravkapur.

(9/) My biggest takeaway, "Udne ke liye chalang lagana jaroori hai".
Trying and taking leaps of faith is a big virtue. Try making that cold call, or texting that person about that opportunity, just do it.
Remember, "If you don't ask, the answer is always a no."

(10/) Contacts/Networks/Relationships are harvested.
They don't happen overnight and requires efforts.

(11/) Make yourself as a compelling proposition when reaching out to somebody.
Value their time and get straight to the point.

(12/) "Attention to detail will never go out of fashion" - @gauravkapur
(13/) Here is one interesting point @gauravkapur made about thinking long term vs short term,
"I don't want to make profit once, I will make lesser profit but I'll make it multiple times."
"I don't want to make profit once, I will make lesser profit but I'll make it multiple times."

(14/) Doing nothing is like doing a lot. Our brain connects dots when we are doing nothing and that's where ideas happen or come to you.
Takeaway: Take some time out and do nothing.
