    I finally got the answer why he changed thumbnails. The answer is that a lot of people aren't good with straight up portrait pictures which demolishes the whole look of channel anyway. So he found the cartoon one's to work better. Now I can finally stop asking this again and again

    When you talked about getting a dip after growth, this took me back to 2016 when i went to US as cultural ambassider during a semester in my bachlors and when I came back I though my next achievemnt would be higher than this. My next target was silicon valley but I could never go back to that place again. I had achieved many things career vise so I thought "graph of success always goes upward". But when I went through downfall or dip (as u said), that made me realise that no matter how successful we are we can come to any desastrous state in life...Anything can happen to anyone.. As you said, whatever I experienced was real but suddenly I am in a regular life....That downfall has taught me a lot but that was and still is most painful period of my life. I lost confidence in my abilities and myself. I don't believe when i see my achievements that those are mine. Dip gives you a lot of self doubt and Since then I am in a continious struggle to overcome it....
    In the end I would say, Career freaks like me never stay satisfied. They need one achievemnt after another and this thing keeps them in a continious state of restlessness. But we need to learn to stay happy regardless of having achievements or not. Keep hustling but never make your life hell by being unhappy due to achievements. Your happiness should not depend on your achievment; try to understand that. Sooner you will understand that, sooner your life will become easier.
    Whoever is reading, I pray that may you achieve huge success and never be deprived from the rewards of your hard work and hustle. Ameen

    I really enjoyed the Manto launch and story. Takes me back to 1981 Georgetown university campus, as a 25 year old I wore a white shalwar kameez and a pink duppata……the compliments came from so many including my professor! Years later at law school girls wanted my mauve shalwar that I wore with a western top. I can quite see Manto on western campuses!
