Making energy for things is more important than making time for things (15:25)
Hiten doesn't see himself retiring (17:25)
Why care about legacy? You're forgotten sooner than you think (19:00)
A typical day in the life (27:00)
Most important communication principles: fast, honest, direct (35:00)
What Hiten would tell his younger self: "Learn how to accept the change that is happening" (38:33)
You add value to the world when you don’t think about adding value (42:20)
