You know how to manage people much better.

You know how to prioritize your work because you also need to spend time with your family.

So yeah, family really, really keeps you grounded.

And which is very surprising that in a lot of Indian startups, after marriage, after kids, it's almost like your... Risk averse.

Risk averse is that you won't give time to the company, you won't put effort.

So it's actually looked down upon, which is...

very, very surprising.

I think traditional colleges per se, um,

have focused more on marketing, rather than building the core skills to make students successful.

And this was one of those examples, that marketing is very good, but actually the skillsets that should be built, are not built.

So we imported something and showed that it was our own.

If we would have actually focused on building those skillsets of students,

we would be in a much better place as an economy as well.

I really feel for the students, right?

Because I mean, I remember when I was preparing for IIT, this was when I was 17 or 18.

That was the top thing on my mind.

And when I didn't get through, I literally had felt devastated that this was the worst day of my life.

doing that with millions of students in India, that they have prepared so hard, given that exam, and then saying that this exam will be conducted again.

I think there is no worse mental torture for students.

They are young, at their age, that is what their final dream is.
