NC Newsletters
💌 Jamie Oliver, Roam Research, Clubhouse - When you start building something ambitious, there is no guarantee of success. You may or may not see it achieve the profitability or impact you envision but we reckon, if you keep building for the long term in mind, the result will be favorable .
💌 What does it feel like to be excluded? - The key is to remember that as long as the locus of control of your well-being and self-worth is in another person’s control, you are not really free. And if you are not free, you will feel constrained. And if you feel constrained, you will feel excluded - from your true self.
💌 Learning from Rabindranath Tagore's Santiniketan in the 21st Century - Despite the strong focus on conservatism at the time, Santiniketan celebrated diversity of thought, conviction and opinion. Debates were encouraged to debate, learn and unlearn through experiential learning.

Monday Musing: Teach What You Love
Network Capital was set up with the simple idea that everyone has something to learn and something to teach. It started off as a passion project, grew into a community for career advice and now serves as a platform for career intelligence, peer learning and skill sharing. What is interesting for us is that NC is considered as much a company as a movement where people from around the world come together to build, share and learn.
At the core of it, Network Capital is very much an example of passion economy in full swing.
Teachwhatyoulove.org: Our first 3 courses taught by NC subscribers live
💡Hard Conversations Made Easy taught by Yogi Sharma - Hard conversations are exactly the ones that develop a deeper trust between people. A strong relationship, either at work or in personal life, is not one where there are no conflicts, but one where people have developed the trust that they can have difficult conversations, and handle them.
💡Evolving Men’s Collective taught by Ashmeet Kapoor - This fellowship is designed to help you understand your conditioning around masculinity, how it may be holding you back from your full potential, discover what kind of man you wish to show up in the world as, and take steps towards becoming that.
💡Exploring Uncertainty taught by Mahmoud Rasmi & Philippe Caponis - This course will not give you answers. It will make you think about what certainty actually means. Why this is relevant today more than ever? Because in a time of bipartisanship, and extreme stances across the social and political spectrums, it is important to take a step back, ask ourselves key questions, and rethink what we have taken for granted.
Have a wonderful week ahead.
