What Parents Need to Know About the Future of Degrees
For decades, parents gave their children the same advice: “Get good grades. Get into a good university. Get a degree. That’s the safest path to success.” That advice made sense — in the old world. But the world your children are growing up in is dramatically different: AI teaches faster than textbooks. Employers hire based on skills, not certificates. Careers are evolving every 3–5 years. New industries are emerging faster than universities can update curricula. Knowledge is no longer locked behind a degree.   So here is the truth many... Read more...
How to Change Education — A Practical Roadmap for Today and Tomorrow
Education is not broken. It’s evolving — and faster than most of our policies and institutions can keep up. If we want schools to prepare young people for the next decades, we must stop treating education as a machine that processes students and start treating it as a living, human-centered practice. Below I set out a clear, practical way to reframe what schools are for, what great teaching looks like, and how change actually happens — with bite-sized actions anyone in a school community can take right away. Start with... Read more...
What If Everything We Knew About Grades Was Wrong? 3 Surprising Truths About Their Real Impact on Learning
Introduction: The GPA Trap For most of us, the rhythm of school was dictated by the report card. From a young age, we learned to measure our progress, our intelligence, and even our worth by a single letter or number. This focus intensifies in high school, where every test and assignment becomes a calculation, another data point in the relentless pursuit of the highest possible GPA. But what if this entire system, which we treat as an essential and objective measure of learning, is fundamentally flawed? According to researcher and... Read more...
Grades Are Destroying Real Learning — And It’s Time We Admit It
I have a difficult question for every parent, teacher, and policymaker who claims to care about education: If grades made learning better, wouldn’t our children love learning by now? Because that’s not what I see. I see students who once explored, questioned, built, created, experimented, and dreamed… slowly becoming young people who ask one heartbreaking question almost every day: “Sir, will this be on the test?” Something has gone terribly wrong. 🎓 Grades Were Supposed to Measure Learning. Instead, They Became the Reason to Learn. We built a system where... Read more...
The Identity Shift You Need to Unlock Multiple Income Streams in the Next 10 Years
We’re living through one of the most transformative periods in human history.Technology, markets, careers, industries, and business models are evolving faster than ever — yet one thing rarely evolves at the same speed: Our identity. Most people try to upgrade their income…without ever upgrading the identity that produces that income. And that’s exactly why they stay stuck. Between the ages of 30 and 42, your responsibilities grow, your experience deepens, but ironically your identity often becomes more rigid — shaped by years of repetition, job roles, and social labels. But... Read more...
Stray Reflections!
The secret is in the Feeling of it, not the imagination of it. We are raising students who know how to pass tests — not solve problems. (0404 - 17/11/25) Memorizing answers isn’t education. It’s intellectual copy-paste. (0406 - 17/11/25) Grades train children to compete with others. Real learning teaches them to improve themselves, and real progress happens when they cooperate and collaborate! (0422 - 17/11/25) The biggest barrier to education reform is not technology, money or policy.It’s the belief that “this is how we’ve always done it.” (0518 -... Read more...
Overcoming Adversity: Turning Hardship Into Your Teacher
It doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from, or where you are heading in life — adversity is unavoidable. At some point, in one form or another, life will test you.

The real question is simple: Will you allow that experience to shape you or shatter you?Will it make you stronger or break you down?

Why Schools Are Training Kids for a World That No Longer Exists
Have you ever noticed how school feels like a rehearsal for a life that doesn’t exist anymore? Every year, millions of students memorize facts, solve outdated problems, and chase grades—while the world outside the classroom is changing faster than the curriculum. The Problem with Traditional Education The current education system was designed in the 19th century. Its goal was simple: prepare children to fit into factories, offices, and structured jobs. It emphasized punctuality, obedience, and rote memorization. Back then, this made sense. But today? The world doesn’t need humans who... Read more...
