पाकिस्तान का आर्थिक सफ़र। Understanding Pakistan's Economic Challenges ft. Uzair Younus
पिछले कुछ सालों से पाकिस्तान की अर्थव्यवस्था उथल-पुथल भरे दौर से गुज़र रही है। बढ़ती महंगाई और ऊर्जा की बढ़ती कीमतों ने आम आदमी के जीवन स्तर को काफ़ी प्रभावित किया है। इसके पीछे क्या वज़ह है? पाकिस्तान इन आर्थिक चुनौतियों से निपटने के लिए ज़रूरी सुधारों को लागू क्यों नहीं कर पा रहा है? इस हफ़्ते, हम बात करेंगे उज़ैर यूनुस से, जो अपने पॉडकास्ट पाकिस्तोनॉमी पर पाकिस्तान की अर्थव्यवस्था के कई पहलुओं के बारे में लिखते और चर्चा करते रहे हैं।Pakistan's economy has been going through turbulent times in the past few years, with inflation reaching above 35% in May 2023. High inflation and rising energy prices have caused a significant dent in the common man’s standard of living. What are the reasons behind this?

We discuss:* The OG Asian Tiger* Market economy in the early days* Failure to do land reforms* The curse of aid* Political instability* Rising inflation* Need for economic reformsReadings* The Pakistonomy substack * The Pakistonomy Podcast by Uzair Younus* SEATO-CENTO * Pakistan’s 22 Families by Mahbub ul Haq* Follow other Pakistani Economists like Kaiser Bengali, Atif Mian, Ishrat Husain, Khurram Husain, and S.

Hanging With Steve and Ethan
I have the pleasure of hanging out with the "Auto Lead King" of Canada, Steven Scott, and his video production manager, YouTube Whizz Kid Ethan Ashley. Both Steve and Ethan are top 1% performers and in addition to recording them at work I asked them the 2 questions I am trying to answer with this series of lectures: 1) Does Self Help work? 2) How can the average Joe or Jane employ the power of Self Help in order to become successful?

Why Self Help (Ultimately) Fails
The reason that self help cannot be considered an "ultimate" bastion in your life is that it cannot answer the question of how you can be happy. Not to mention any of the other "big questions" that give your life meaning and purpose and which provide you with a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment

Self Help and Serial Killers
Were serial killers born or made? What about people like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk and Gary Vee? The average person looks on in awe as these God-like figures traverse the landscapes of our collective consciousness: why do some people seem to have it all? Moreover, can the average schmuck like you and me become like them? What exactly does that take? There are no end of talented, hard-working and intelligent people in the world. Why do so few succeed then? What is success? Is it being "happy" and if so, what does that...

Self Help vs. Spirituality
I often ask my atheist friends whether they are spiritual and, regardless of the answer, I believe that many of them are. Like many people, I believe that spirituality is more important than being religious and, I posit, more real than "self help". The self help genre has spawned millions of books, CDs, courses, workshops, gurus and God knows what else over the last 150 years but does it work? Do you know anyone who has transformed their lives by reading a book? Can self help answer basic questions like, "how can I be happy?" It cannot but spirituality can

The Will to Succeed
Nietzsche talked about "will to power" as being the primary driving force of the human psyche. While most of what the man wrote and spoke of is way above my level of understanding I have never quite understood or accepted this principle of his. Until recently, that is. Don Juan used to advise Castaneda that the principles he was teaching him would remain dry theoretical constructs until he, Castaneda, experienced them for himself. This is how I feel about "will to power". I had decided that man's desire for meaning was the preeminent factor in his inner life. Nietzsche himself...

What is the Key to Transforming My Life?
The perennial promise of Self Help is that anyone can become a "suberbeing". Just like Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Larry Ellison or [insert your hero or heroine here!] you too can become an excellent version of yourself and accomplish amazing things. Deep down inside we all believe this is true, that we are special and capable of accomplishing great things. Unfortunately, however, most of us live drab lives of mediocrity overshadowed by the debris of broken dreams and lost hopes. If that is putting it too harshly then at least most of us have not been able to live...

Self Help Misses the Most Important Thing of All
Erich Fromm talks about "being", "doing" and "having" and self help generally glosses over the most important of these. We are sold on the idea of becoming the best version of ourselves: superbeings. We are told that once we have mastered the art of being then we can have and achieve whatever we want in life. What is missed out in this equation is that the only thing we really have in our power which is what we do Self help sells us on the idea that we can somehow flick a switch in our minds...

Self Help is One-Dimensional
It is true. Self help is focused (mostly) on external success and, at best, brushes over the fundamental character changes that are necessary in order to become truly successful and happy. Self help gurus talk about "thinking like rich people" and visualizing every manner of external achievement in the greatest of detail. While none of this is bad in-and-of itself it ignores the fact that success begins and ends within you For the most part, self help ignores the moral side of self development. Very few self help gurus talk about things like honesty, patience and forgiveness...

The Final Frontier of Success
I haven't spent too much time talking about material success or "externalities" in my analysis of success so far. That is because material success is a given component of overall success. However, any kind of success begins and ends within you. You have an idea or an ideal or a dream or a goal or vision. You take steps to define and then achieve you goal. You succeed. You are happy Looking within, I have asked the question: what is the ultimate inner goal of the human experience? What is it that we need the most from...

No, Really, What Is "Success"??
You may not even realize it but you are looking for "the answer" (I am, at least). It is built in your very being, the knowledge that there is some vital piece of information or wisdom that will change everything. That is what Self Help sells us, the notion that we can somehow flick a switch inside of and become a superbeing like a Tony Robbins or a Gary Vaynerchuk. All in a weekend!! It is the same line we are fed by spiritual gurus who talk about instant "life transformations" or reaching "enlightenment" where our suffering...

What is "Success" Anyway?
Alexander the Great believed he was the son of God which is why he accomplished superhuman feats (so the story goes). Apparently he sat down and wept when he had conquered the whole of the known world because there were no more countries left to conquer. Along the way he met an Indian guru who imparts the essence of ancient wisdom to him It is important to define success because if nothing else, you may be aiming at the wrong thing(s) in life if you do not know what really drives you. Most intelligent people will...

The Promise of a "Super" You
The proof seems to be in the pudding in that "normal" people like yourself and myself can become superbeings like Gary Vee, Elon Musk or Tony Robbins. Most super-successful people did, after all, start of being average if not completely broke Multilevel Marketing businesses provide more examples in the tens of thousands of moms, dads and others of every race and background who went from "normal" to multi-millionaires living the ultimate lifestyle (at least outwardly) Is it that these people really went from being like myself and yourself and transformed themselves into new "super" people...

Can You Really Change Who You Are?
On the one hand, most people will agree that there is an essential "me" inside of them who has always been the same. However, would you not agree that you are a different person than you were 10 years ago? It often seems like super-successful people like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates and Elon Musk and Gary Vaynerchuck are "different" from the rest of us. When you read and learn about them it sometimes appear that they have always had the key attributes and qualities that led to their success, even when they were kids. Gary Vee used...

There Is No "Real" You
When you talk about changing your "self" you are talking about changing something that transcends time, space and material limitations. How can you change your soul or spirit? How can you ever change who you are as a person? Your essence? On the other hand, your likes and dislikes and personality does and can change over time! Every atom in your body changes every 6-12 months and if you compare yourself to who you were 10 years ago you might even say that EVERYTHiNG about you has changed Is the thing that you call "me" or "...

Why Self Help Sucks
The problem with self help is that you are focused on "self". If you are focused on "self" you are bound to suffer. The way to live is to lose yourself in EXPERIENCE. That means finding things that you lose yourself and focusing (just) on those things. Building your life around those things. Not worrying about money or fame or success or even that thing called "happiness".

Episode 09 - Ambassador Haqqani
Two recent pieces in the international press have been great reminders of the steep price Pakistan continues to pay for the tragic stupidities that the country endured for decades in the name of national security. In a February 6 piece for the New York, Carlotta Gall asserts that Da'esh is partly a product of Pakistan's ISI, and on Valentine's Day, a Bloomberg Business piece by Fasih Mangi and Divya Patil suggests that Pakistan is about to default. For even casual observers, both pieces fail to offer compelling evidence, or really any kind of evidence at all for their very substantial claims. ...
