Dear Subscribers,

Hope your week has started off on a good note. Here is a quick summary of what’s going on:

  • If you google “hard work”, my HBR essay comes up among the first few links. I hope people quickly get over the seduction of the hustle and start focusing on systems that lead to long-term success.

  • Once upon a time, I was a shy guy. Today is not that day but it is helpful to look back at the past.

  • Khyaal, one of my portfolio companies, partnered with Tata. It is a tough time for startups but gritty ones continue to thrive.

  • Instacart went public. Valuation guru Aswath Damodaran has a contrarian take. Think carefully before you put in your hard-earned dollars anywhere.

  • Network Capital is at the Australia-India Youth Dialogue. Varya, Nipun, Vipin, and a bunch of other speakers are representing us at AIYD.

  • What does having a good enough job entail? Watching you will help you figure out the challenges of aspiring for a perfect job.

Are you going crazy? How to be ambitious and sane.
