Dear Friends, Career Care wishing you Happy Independence Day 2025

Today is Independence Day, the day on which we gained Freedom to become Guardian of this beautiful Nation called India. Our ancestors who were not only from our homes but from our neighborhood, from the same land and outside of our National Geography handed us the responsibility to take the nation to the next level leveraged with beauty. We called this nation our Motherland, India.

The people of those times, definitely some and certainly who have taken the bigger roles and whose message still after so many years reminds us that we are the people of this wonderful land became our Heroes. The message of those people in words, through books, newspapers, magazines, and audio & visual media is so alive that the words said by those men and women become Lessons of Life for many.

One such personality was Gandhi Ji, his name became immortal, you know why, because he took the bigger responsibilities, he took the bigger risk towards everyone, he not only fought with British, but also fought with the thoughts of inequality spread across length and breadth of not only in this country but also worldwide. The vision of Gandhi Ji was a Hindustan, an India, a country, a nation that would be open for learning, open for course correction over time, open for brotherhood where everyone would be responsible towards its people, its values with open mind; a nation where there should be no difference between poor and rich, between this skin color and that skin color, between different genders, between geographies etc.

The message of Bapu was that we should build an India where everyone should be open to learn, open to take responsibilities and open to teach others by good deeds that we are Indian. We are a nation of a billion plus people, our geography is vast, we speak many languages, we celebrate many cultures and our strength is UNITY. Our responsibility is to ask questions, and questioning begins from the self. When you question yourself, you design better questions, you strive for answer and this quest you THINK Better and this builds your moral, develop your strength and you ask next big question to yourself; and when this quest is continues, you build your strength to spread love and harmony, feel responsible towards nation building and you build values. This all comes from learning and learning empowers you to ask big questions not only to yourself but those also who are responsible like you to perform their duties and enjoy their rights same as you do.

Learning makes you powerful, knowledge is a form of economy that builds your strength and then you strive to transfer this strength from one person to another, from one generation to the next generation. When you transfer knowledge that gives you Peace and then you Spread Peace and then people remember you as a person who has contributed to the Do Good Cause.

Do Good, Stay Blessed, Strive, Spread Peace. Let’s Hack Gaps.

Happy Independence Day 2025 to you and your loved ones.

Must Read Book: "Measure What Matters"

 Whether you are a college student, graduate student or executive professional Measure What Matters' is a treasure. If you have read this book already, that's super cool. If not grab your copy. This is not a promotional post. Measure What Matters teach you about how to implement OKRs in work settings. I have gone through this word by word and really now I know the first step.

I don't belong to a family of entrepreneurs or management professionals and nobody was there to guide me. These are books, books, and books only those helped me truly in living life. Everyone has a choice so does you. I like reading around and about science, engineering and technology. I do buy a book when its title attracts to my eyes. Any word, any phrase, any mathematical symbol when in a Title get my eyeballs. Then I try my best to read it before anyone else reads.

Measure What Matters is written by John Doerr who worked for Intel with Sir Andy Groove. The book is divided into Two Sections; section 1 talks about OKRs, and Section 2 is about CFRs. You can find this book from shopping websites very easily.

Personally, I love to call this book Andy Groove Theory of Management.

And, I can bet on it, once you read, the learning not apply to work settings but a lot in personal life too. OKRs and CFR are about how you approach to a problem, execute program to solve it and get results. This book will take your understanding about execution to next level. Yes, if you are programmer your approach to execute the program next day will change.

Measure What Matters is a must read book. To know what will you get inside go through those pages and say Thank you to John Doerr. Hack Gaps
