Himanshu's Session

Thank you @him for taking this session on such a short notice 🙏 You started the session by asking 3 very simple but profoundly BT questions 😂 They’re BT because of the same reason you mentioned — People instantly see the low in their life and the high in someone else’s. I really liked the analysis of what goes into choosing a career and how that has conditioned us today. When I thought more about the risks we take, I realised that those are the very same 3 parameters we judge a risk on. We never take a bet on our curiosity. I liked the term “Curiously commit”. Somehow curiosity always felt incomplete to me. I now have the full version. The session was surprisingly 😂 easy to follow for me, yet it had great depth. Looking forward to the next one ✨

Hey @him , really great session, enjoyed it throughout. The start to the session was quite interesting where you picked up references and questions from Harry Potter and very smoothly transitioned the session into careers in India. You stressed a lot on the importance of getting over your low moments and not waste too much time pondering over it once the learnings from that has been extracted. The past has passed and you cannot change it. The quote put a lot of things into perspective - "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times". The reason for choosing a career path felt like a small attack but it makes a lot of sense and I realized it holds true for almost everyone 😂 It was a light, yet important session. Looking forward to the next one. ✨

Hello @him ✨ Firstly, I want to express my appreciation for the insightful and engaging session we had. It was truly a valuable experience. I really loved how you asked such simple, deep questions, all of which come from a movie. While watching movies, we often see ourselves as protagonists but never ask those questions in real life. I love how you bring those questions to us and make us think about them. Then, we discussed how we choose our careers (3 P's) and how, as Indians, we lack curiosity. Somehow, in every session, we always come to the point of why we Indians lack things to become at the top, and in every session, we get different perspectives, which makes me think, are we really that low? Your sessions always leave a mark after the session. The next session is on game theory. Ok bye 🔥

Hey @him, Thank you for the another mindblowing session✨, You emphasis on overcoming low point of life , it's really important to learn from tough times instead of thinking about them too much. This is a valuable reminder for everyone. It's important to acknowledge setbacks but not dwell on them excessively👍. The quote you shared "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times", This quote provides food for thought on the cyclical nature of challenges and resilience.🌟 You covered important factors like how we choose our jobs based on three things pay, personal aptitude, and prestige, you also mentioned that we Indians might not being curious and wanting to learn more about different things.✨ Your sessions always offer valuable lessons, thanks to your insightful perspectives and engaging discussions Looking forward for next session 💫

Hello @him ✨ The questions were simple, but the answers ran deep, which is the standard process for your Thursday sessions :)

 When you were discussing the 3Ps and why we are stuck as a nation, I was trying to understand what we focus on instead. Lack of curiosity felt like the most obvious answer, but it is also something we’re lacking by a mile. That said, maybe we can have a session on how we can work on being more curious and also how to notice strengths move forward from there, sometime? The point made on how we compare our lows to someone else’s highs is at the forefront of how we process anything; it feels like instinct at this point and needs to be worked upon. Thank you for tapping in on aspects which are important and making us introspect on where we're headed 🚀

Hey @him , Wow, what a session! 🌟 From the get-go, it was clear this was going to be one for the books. I always admire how deep the conversations go with you. You break down every concept, every word, to its core, making us ponder and rethink everything. The discussion on choosing careers and its ripple effect on both individuals and the nation really resonated with me. "Curiously commit" is my new favourite phrase! It's got such depth and meaning packed into two words. The idea of comparing our lows to others' highs struck a chord. It's something we do almost reflexively, but the session really made me realise why we do it and its consequences, not just for us personally, but for our nation as a whole. It was eye-opening yet light-hearted, and that's what makes your sessions stand out. I always leave your sessions feeling inspired and enlightened. Can't wait for the next one! 🌻

Hey @him, That was another amazing session! Starting off with interesting questions has become a standard. They always makes one open their mind to thinking and reflecting deeply. You always connect topics with pop-culture, in this case the Harry Potter questions, which adds more fun to the session. “Those who do not remember the past, are condemned to repeat it” - It was intersting to learn how remembering the past can be a strengthening exercise. The points on our belief system and how it has formed by the mirroring network around us helped in understanding why our minds work the way they do. The concept of the 3Ps - was straightforward and full of truth. It was also fascinating to learn the difference between Goal and Direction and how you can have flow once you know your direction. The session was filled with learnings and new-found observations. Thank for such an intriguing and fun session, looking forward to the next one!

@him It is always such an honor and delight to learn from you, but if I'd think back to yesterday's session I will definitely think about what an emotional rollercoaster it was at a personal level, the things that you talked about struck a chord and made me wonder of all the other possibilities than to actually have to face my worst fear, whose to say that it'll certainly happen. The learnings that I had were profound from yesterday, whether it was the 3 Ps being the crux of our stagnation and impairment to think beyond the self, my favorite take away from yesterday has to be the quote that you shared with us all "Hard times create strong humans, Strong humans create good times, Good times create weak human, and weak humans create hard times." such simple words but the impact and impression they left was deep. Thank you for always being ever so gracious while sharing your life experiences and your knowledge with us. We look forward to more such wonderful learnings from you.

Hey @him I wanted to thank you for the fantastic session this Thursday! It was incredibly thought-provoking, and I especially liked how you started with those profound questions. I agree, we often get stuck comparing ourselves to others, and your point about focusing on lows vs. highs really resonated with me.🌻 The discussion about career choices and the 3Ps was interesting and it made me realize how much our belief system shapes our risk-taking. "Curiously commit” totally captures the essence of taking a chance on our interests and just never stop creating. Doing it because you are curious and not for the 3Ps!! Alsoo love when you create a link with HP every,time makes me look at it through a different lens and rewatch the movie :)🫶 I think if as nation we do lack in this, looking forward to next session where we can know more on how to cultivate this curiosity early on in childhood!!🐣 Overall, It was both insightful and fun, Cheers!👏👏

Great session, @him Your thought-provoking questions and pop-culture references added fun to the session. I found the discussions on the importance of remembering the past and understanding our belief system insightful. The concept of the 3Ps and the difference between goal and direction were also fascinating. Looking forward to the next session 🤩

@him Your session was amazing once again!! You ask us such simple yet effective questions that require a lot of thought and understanding. The discussion on the 3 P's actually made me realize how we're always in a race to satisfy ourselves and our needs. As kids, we dreamt of being doctors or even prime ministers, serving our nation or making a difference in the world. But as we grow up, we are so busy with filling the voids in our lives that we don't realize how self-centered we've become. The idea of comparing our lows to others highs is something we do subconsciously every day, without realizing the negative impact it can have. Your simple questions about our daily lives are incredibly effective, leaving us speechless and pushing us to question ourselves, Why did I do that? Why am I like this? How can I break this bubble around me? Your sessions are always inspiring. Can't wait for the next one. 🥳

Hello @him, yet another brain-picking session! The way you walked us through different situations and encouraged us to think from various perspectives was fantastic 🤌 I particularly loved your point about "committing curiously" and how humans tend to notice lows in their own lives and highs in someone else's. The quote you shared - "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times" - resonated with me too Thanks for a great session! ✨

Hello @him sir, It was a wonderful session with lots of new realizations. Your discussions always have multiple layers, and this session was no exception. I understood how we set standards for achieving the things we want. I could really connect with why people feel low and what the main causes are. I came to the realization that it's not always about me and myself! When you talked about the three P's, I had two checkboxes ticked. It made me realize how I'm choosing things, essentially to satisfy others and not taking any risks. And when you talked about the psychological fact, we immediately see our lows and highs in other people's lives. This is exactly what I'm doing every day without even noticing it. I loved the quote you shared Hard Times create weak men...... And also why India needs people like Rajinikanth and understood the reason why he's still acting! This session was full of self-realization! Thanks for keeping me engaged by asking certain questions and translating certain portions. It was absolutely an amazing session, and I'm looking forward to more amazing sessions like this! Thanks 🙏

hey @him thanks for an amazing session . Session kick-started with series of thought provoking questions which looked simple but needed brainstorming. Logically thinking our past has nothing to contribute to our present but still we let it affect out present . This was simple thing but could slip through mind . Concept of 3Ps was very human and factual . Looking beyond 3Ps and growing as society might be thing that can grow as whole nation . It was simply because we lacked “curiosity’ , simple as it sounded . overall loved your session !!. Looking forward to next one!!

Hey @him , thanks for another mind-blowing session. Your sessions are always awesome; they're like a reality check ✔️ where we step out of delusion. Starting from the session where you took the example of the boggart, which was thought-provoking, and you talked about the 3 Ps was really interesting. You also explained why we choose one of the 3 Ps, which really blew my mind. Moreover, the way to get out of it was for us to realize what we are missing or where we are lacking... which made me realize that somehow we forget to be curious. Looking forward to next session. ☺

Hey @him, Thanks for the awesome session! 🌟. Your talks are always deep, and this one was too. Learning from the past to avoid repeating mistakes is so important. Your emphasis on overcoming tough times is a great reminder. That quote about challenges and resilience really got me thinking. I liked how you talked about choosing jobs based on pay, aptitude, and prestige—the 3Ps. And the idea of being curious about different things is something I'll remember. Your sessions are always insightful and engaging. Can't wait for the next one!

Hello @him What an amazing session! 🎉 Your ability to foster meaningful discussions and provoke introspection never fails to leave a lasting impact. The session was a journey of self-discovery, starting with reflections on unexpected moments of learning. It underscored the significance of embracing new experiences and the potential for growth they offer. Moreover, the insightful reflection about the impact of past memories on our present mindset made me reconsider how I perceive and leverage my past experiences as either strengthening or weakening exercises. The discussion about the Three P's was insightful and your emphasis on creativity and curiosity reminded me to stay true to myself and evolve my beliefs through experience. Overall, the session elevated both self-awareness and purpose. Thank you once again for your guidance and wisdom. I look forward to your next session and the insights it will bring ✨

Hi @him !! What a thoughtful session you had created there. Its always like this, I am in a confused yet clarified state after your session. But this session helped me a lot to clear my mind and channel my directions. I understood the 3P's and why would everyone would follow in those footsteps. Thanks for pointing it out and make me understand to come out of the cycle. I Hope I do better than that. My interest peaked when you spoke about why worry on things which are uncontrollable. Thanks for this session! I want to be in more of these sessions. 😁

Wow, what an amazing session! Your insights on overcoming tough times really hit home. It was fascinating to dive into how our subconscious plays a role in our actions. Your advice on moving on from low moments once we've learned from them struck a chord with me. Dwelling on the past can hold us back, so it's important to glean lessons and keep moving forward. That quote you shared about the cycle of strength and adversity was eye-opening. And even though discussing career choices felt a bit confusing at first, it was spot-on for pretty much everyone. Thanks for such a thought-provoking and entertaining discussion!

Hi @him ✨ You really have a fantastic capacity to encourage thoughtful conversations and self-reflection. Your comments regarding overcoming adversity and realizing the subconscious's involvement resonated deeply with me. You obviously have a talent for leading us to progress and self-discovery. I found the discussion on the Three P's particularly insightful. Your emphasis on pay, aptitude, and prestige in career choices was eye-opening, and it's something I'll definitely be reflecting on in my own life.  Furthermore, your advice to maintain curiosity in many topics served as a welcome reminder to be open-minded and welcoming of new experiences. Thanks for a great session! ✨ and sorry for the late feedback 🙏🏻

Hi @him Apologies for the late feedback. This session was surprisingly less BT and less intense compared to the ones I've seen so far, and that's a good thing. It kept things interesting enough for everyone to follow and second-guess themselves, but not so intense that deafening silence would take over. Not a big fan of the quote, "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times," because it sounds like something Ayn Rand would vouch for (I read Atlas Shrugged once and didn't like it), but I really appreciate how your session is always an exercise in getting rid of our needless anxieties and fears for the greater good. Thank you for that and as always, looking forward to the next!

Hello @him, Your session was awesome! Your questions really make me think deeply and reflect. I love how you connect topics with pop culture, like Harry Potter, it adds a fun twist. The discussion about remembering the past and the 3Ps was enlightening. It made me realize how our beliefs shape our actions. The idea of comparing our lows to others' highs hit home. It's a good reminder to stay grounded. Looking forward to more amazing sessions! ✨

Hello @him Apologies for the late feedback.I wanted to let you know that the session was truly incredible✨ The initial question seemed quite ordinary, but I was pleasantly surprised by how you connected all the dots and made me realize that when we experience sadness or hurt, we tend to revert back to a childlike state. The quote you shared about the cycle of strength and adversity really opened my eyes. I really appreciated your discussion on choosing jobs based on pay, aptitude, and prestige—the 3Ps. Additionally, the idea of being curious about various things is something that will stick with me 🙌 Once again, thank you for the session ✨

Hello @him, I apologies or the late feedback, I really enjoyed our latest session it was interesting from start to finish. I found it fascinating how the 3 P's play such a pivotal factor in peoples career choices in India . You emphasized the importance of moving past our low points, extracting lessons but not dwelling on them, as the past is the past and cannot be changed. The quote, "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times," which really put things into perspective, thank you for a meaningful and thought provoking session. Looking forward to more. ✨
