Mental toughness is often portrayed as determination and persistence, but it can also be flexibility and adaptability. - I can be happy anywhere - I can work with what I have - I can have a good day with anyone You are tough when your mood is not dependent on your conditions.

Charging money is the ultimate life hack. You can easily get a Yes or No without having a time-wasters conversation with a total stranger. It's been 7 hours, I haven't got a reply. I saved myself 30 minutes ✌️

An interesting, philosophical take by Zhang Yiming, the then CEO of Byte Dance in @interconnect_ed . It's one that got me pondering over larger things in life. Not the usual growth speech by a CEO.  Here is why and what he spoke about : interconnected.blog/zhang-yi… 👇

4. The feedback loop is quick and real on the internet. You are judged by the market and not so much generating flashy ppt slides.
4. Having audience is key. You get audience by providing value. It is not about selling the next course. Just provide plain value. That's what sticks.
