One of the best episodes!!

[@luda786]

Thank you Muzammil and Mr Haider Ali Khan. This was a phenomenal episode. One thing that deeply resonated with me was the fact that when you set up a business, you need to check the emotions out of it. I guess another way to say this would be that when you are creating something larger than yourself, part of appreciating this entity that you have been fortunate enough to create, is to treat it as fairly and justly and as little with emotion as possible. Thanks for this insight.

Love you from 🇨🇭

[@workhardmillionsonwelfared1329]

Amazing podcast. I've started liking engineers after being introduced to this gentleman!

[@abdulbari4812]

On the 15 minute but absolutely loving it. will complete this today. I think so far this is the top 5 that Muzamil did in his 400 podcasts.

[@samiullahkhanabdali121]

Mr Muzammal. Arrange a program regarding semiconductor industry in Pakistan.

[@XCITE.REALTORS]

Impressed by him ❤ so much practical approach throughout the journey
I am in the real estate business and can easily understand what they have done to this industry especially in Pakistan

[@muhammadahsanraza3363]

I was going through this course " Learning how to Learn " where one of the instructor is a pioneer in computational neuroscience. He makes it understand to the audience that how Jogging/Walk is the best ever thing to do for ideas generation, and I found the 2nd use case of this learning in this podcast.
Additionally, the part where KSA building with 70000+ unites is being discussed, the approach by Sir Haider was very thoughtful for me. It really broadened my perspective of business and opportunity Analysis.
Thank You Muzammil Bhai and Sir Haider

*Pride of Pakistan!*

[@asgarkadwa7914]

Who has time for nearly 2 hours podcast?No matter how good it is.😢

[@namrahkhan8358]

It's the best thing for people like me who commute 3 hrs for work

[@MuhammadUmar-jb5uk]

Me

[@waheed_akhtar]

People work and also listen to podcasts. Thats what I do. Writing code and listing the thoughtful thoughts.

[@callmefahdi]

Me

[@dawoodahmed5793]

I listen to whole podcast while doing walk

[@XCITE.REALTORS]

But Alot of delays in their projects especially in Lahore should be answered ..I mean they are doing the same thing by focusing on sales only not developing things more rapidly especially in lahore and Islamabad..

[@ubaidullahkhan500]

Finally after 200 podcast , u have change the question, where u r looking at pakistan in 2050

[@muhammadshehroz4968]

Please use only Urdu or English throughout your conversation.

[@user-lr2ie7tz6t]

Uae is tolerant??? Biggest joke of today!

[@jafarali3432]

So much talks but no real substance. Probably host has no business knowledge to trigger intelligent business questions
