This week the Founder & CEO of Network Capital Utkarsh Amitabh, wrote another article for the Indian Express on the Fuelling Future Forward Dreams.

The future economic and social possibilities are not pre-ordained. How we think of our stories today and how we write them will pave the way for an uncertain, unpredictable but hopefully exciting future.

Newsletters | Subscribers get curated newsletters

💌 Paradox of Trust - Gladwell has a simple formula for dealing with strangers, an adaptation of Hanlon’s Razor: trust people with caution and humility. Caution because things can backfire and humility because we are not particularly good at reading strangers.

💌 The Art of Introducing Yourself - For the last 7 years, I have been to a new country every month or so (pre-Corona chaos of course). This exposure, to which I owe most of my powerful learning adventures, has enabled me to both introduce myself thousands of times to people and witness tens of thousands of people introduce themselves to me.

💌 Sprint, Rest, Repeat: The Opposite of Hustle? - If knowledge workers train like athletes, they are likely to get more done with less and do stuff that moves the needle. History is likely to remember such knowledge workers favorably.
