1. Try, but you just cannot get taller
“If you take me on your basketball team, you can teach me many things, but you cannot teach me to be taller.” Why? Because you can learn new things but never change who you are meant to be!
2. Always have people around who can help you grow
“Life is too short to hang out with people who are not resourceful.” This line made an impact on me for reasons unknown. If you do not spend time with people who are not resourceful, by the end of the day you will find yourself filled with optimism and plenty of ideas for your own betterment.
3. Work through the regret
Bezos works with a simple formula. He always thinks of himself at the age of 80 and wonders about what he could have done differently. The lesson here is to think of how the choices you make in life affect the rest of your future and what you can do to map your life the way you want. Pick a number, think backwards and make sure you have your goals set!
4. Earn your reputation by doing the tough things well
A brand earns its reputation by doing even the hardest things well. Amazon lived by this policy from the very beginning and as a result, has become one of the most valued e commerce platfroms to date all over the world. Earn your reputation by trying to do hard things well and more often than not, you create a niche for yourself!
5. The customer is always the king
You know when they say the customer is always the king, it is a true statement. One of the major reasons Amazon is such a success today is that Bezos realised this fact early on. He built the entire platform to suit his customers and look at where he stands today! Quite an achievement, right?

Zupee Bolsters Short-Video Play with Vertical TV Acquisition Under INR 40 Cr
Delhi NCR-based gaming startup Zupee has acquired Mumbai-based microdrama platform Vertical TV in a deal valued under INR 40 Cr. This move strengthens Zupee Studio, its short-video arm launched in September 2025, by integrating Vertical TV’s expertise in bite-sized dramas like romance and thrillers.
Facing challenges from India’s 2025 real-money gaming ban, Zupee valued at $1 Bn after raising $120 Mn has pivoted to non-gaming content, including recent layoffs of 40% of its workforce. The acquisition builds on its November 2025 purchase of Australian AI firm Nucanon for interactive storytelling, targeting its 200 Mn+ users with engaging, mobile-first formats.
This deal underscores the rising microdrama trend in India, helping Zupee diversify amid regulatory pressures and compete in the short-video space dominated by quick, shareable content for on-the-go audiences.

T.N. Seshan: The Fearless Reformer Who Redefined Indian Democracy
T.N. Seshan’s name stands tall in India’s history as the man who transformed the nation’s electoral system with extraordinary courage and integrity. Born in 1932 in Kerala, Seshan grew up with values of discipline, education, and service to the nation — virtues that shaped his illustrious journey. From his early brilliance at Madras Christian College to his advanced studies in public administration at Harvard University, Seshan’s path reflected rare determination and intellect. Joining the Indian Administrative Service in 1955, he built a reputation as a no‑nonsense officer committed to efficiency and honesty, serving in key roles such as Secretary of Defense and overseeing vital national programs.
As the Chief Election Commissioner of India in 1990, T.N. Seshan sparked a new era of electoral integrity. In a system once marred by corruption, violence, and malpractice, Seshan brought order, fear, and respect through his groundbreaking reforms. He introduced voter ID cards, imposed strict spending limits on campaigns, and insisted on transparency at every level of the election process. Despite criticism from political circles that labeled him dictatorial, his relentless pursuit of fairness empowered every citizen to vote fearlessly. Under his leadership, the Election Commission became a symbol of strength and integrity in Indian democracy.
Seshan’s passing in November 2019 marked the end of an era, but his message continues to resonate across generations. Leaders from every corner of the country mourned the loss of the man who restored faith in free and fair elections. His enduring legacy reminds us that true leadership lies not in wielding power, but in serving people with honesty, courage, and conviction. T.N. Seshan’s life remains a timeless inspiration a reminder that democracy thrives only when its citizens are vigilant, responsible, and fearless.
