Fixing the Education System

 The future of education/knowledge is not going to be based on remembering facts/numbers/stats. What more value addition difference we are going to make that a simple google search can outperform the number of facts we are remembering. 

We need to teach kids what minimum they need to do to clear the current education system and then do things that will really help them to do something meaningful in life. My facts echo below tweets/slides I picked up from my reads.


The education system needs to be focused on developing below skills for kids/adults. We need more experimenters/innovators / empathetic thinkers who can make the world level up the imbalances


Teachers need to be the best set of motivated passionate individuals. We need to reset the current system of number/grade focused teachers.


Kids today can question/interpret a lot of facts that are shared. Teachers need to be more empathetic to teach than just delivering facts.


Games / Bully / Smartphone Addiction are serious issues that need to help them understand the importance of mental health.

This is my favorite tweet. Use the young brains to find big breakthroughs not clearing NEET / JEE / useless MCQ Exams

Value of people we Live with

For a week, I went out to Bangalore to clean up the mess. In 6 months

  • Pillow, Kitchen, Rotten vegetables, Dust made the house a mess
  • Rain / Winds made the balcony almost muddy

With Corona around, you have no way to try to be cautious every time you go out for Tea, Food. It made me realize how much my mom is taking care of me. In a way whatever happened in life is a blessing. 

Lockdown was helpful

  • Expenses are minimalistic
  • Avoided 6 months of commute chaos
  • When I cleaned up my place there was a lot of iodex, volini, Amrutanjan. The commute had given me back pain for long
  • Nearing 40 in a way this home food helped me to get back in health from all outside food for 20 years
  • Sometimes I did have some differences with my mom, Overall I guess it was positive

A trip to clean up home in Bangalore made me realize the comfort I had been living past 6 months.

Keep Going!!!
