We should stop confusing what someone was doing when we became aware of them with all they are capable of, interested in, or ever hope to be

Let folks have their many talents, interests and gifts. Life is far more fun with variety, loves.

My dad led an organization of over 300,000 employees.

When I took on my biggest marketing & events team to date (35 employees) I asked him how the *heck* he did it. Here's what he said and what helped me every day. 🧵

Remember you're leading all the employees under you, but you're not *managing* them all. You're managing your direct reports, which should be 5-7 individuals max. Focus on them.

When you interact with the employees you don't manage directly, get to know them as people first, that'll be the most valuable information in leading them. Remembering everything you learn about them is hard, but doing so will make you a superhero.

If you're not going to empower the managers under you, why do you have them? If you see room for improvement, let the manager know and let them make the change on their teams and come to you with questions/concerns. This will save you SO much time.

If you're the smartest person in any room - you're doing it wrong. As a leader, your job is bringing together the best people to get the job done - your skillset is identifying those people, not being one of them.

People are weary.

They get run down by the daily demands of life.

Work, stress, health, money.

It all adds up.

THEN, when their defenses are low, they get SLAMMED with very clever, psychologically manipulative marketing.

Game over. Broke and sick for life.

They used to stand a chance when it was newspaper and TV ads.

Now, with algorithms that prey on the data they themselves provide via social media and browsing habits? No chance.

Digging an endless hole.

Very smart, well educated people cannot overcome this trap.

And the few that do are tempted to use that knowledge to prey on others.

Those with less intelligence and agency are sheep being led to slaughter.

Leaders, those who have been given the ability to initiate change in the world (you know who you are), have a responsibility to fight against those who take advantage of others, to not sit quietly under the false flag of peace.

Everywhere you go, look around, nearly everyone looks miserable.

The most prosperous time to be alive in human history, and people walk like zombies through life.

They were told these material goods would bring fulfillment, instead they brought debt slavery.

Fun with speculation...

1: Lin Wood tweets that Epsteene is still alive (no way you let THE key witness die in jail).

2: DJT is the consummate showman.

3: DJT tells his loyal supporters to be in DC on the 6th for a "wild party".

(con't)

1) Looks like Trump KNEW what the coup plotters were plotting on the 6th, so he arrived an hour late to the stage, and talked longer than he intended, before he asked MAGA to walk peacefully down Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol.

He also didn't walk WITH them as he promised.

ANCIENT BHARAT WAS CALLED VISHWAGURU, AND IT REALLY DESERVED IT.

India had a well developed education system centuries before the westerners arrived and called us uncivilized. Education was always given a great importance in Indian civilisation since times immemorial.

Ancient India had the Gurukulas and Ashramas as the epicentres of the knowledge and enlightenment. Bigger Gurukulas served as the centres of higher education called universities. Besides these universities, temples also emerged as the major learning centres.

Studying the Holy Scriptures, character building, personality development, responsibilities towards self,family and society,discipline and preservation of the ancient culture and heritage were the key embodiments of education.

This kind of education system made ancient India, a centre of knowledge all over the world. Many foreign students came to India for education and India was called the 'Vishwaguru'.
Takshshila and Nalanda were the two prominent universities of ancient India.

But were these only Universities of ancient India?The answer is 'No'.Let's learn about these gems of our education system that flourished across ancient India & be proud.
