Most people write requirements. The best PMs write acceptance criteria.

There's a difference.

Requirements say "users should be able to withdraw funds."

Acceptance criteria says:

✅ GIVEN a verified user with balance > $10
WHEN they submit a withdrawal request
THEN the system shows a risk disclaimer, requires 2FA confirmation, and logs the action with a timestamp

I've been building security features for a crypto wallet platform — things like withdrawal review permissions, API key management, abnormal operation alerts.

Every single one starts with Given/When/Then.

It removes ambiguity. Developers know exactly what to build. Testers know exactly what to verify. Reviewers know exactly what to approve.

Bad acceptance criteria is where most product delays are born.

What's your go-to format for writing acceptance criteria?

Big news—I'm officially BACK on YouTube ! 🚀

After a hiatus, I've returned with more energy, more clarity, and more conversations that I believe the world needs right now.

🎙️ Deep-dive interviews with global leaders
🌍 Volunteering projects setting up libraries in rural Sri Lanka
💡 Honest conversations on leadership, technology, and imposter syndrome
📊 Economic journalism — breaking down complex trends, simply

I've had the privilege of hosting leaders from across the world, and every single conversation has left me—and my viewers—with something powerful to take away.

Now I want MORE of you to be part of it.

Stop letting small minds take up big space in your head. 🧠🚫

As you get older, your "stress list" should get more expensive.

- Stress about your ROI.
- Stress about your Legacy.
- Stress about your Next Move.

Don’t stress about the person who stopped texting you or the colleague who left you off the lunch thread.

Small circles. Big goals. Better peace of mind.

Leading the Path to Peace: Lessons from a Journey 🤍

There is something profoundly moving about this image of Aloka the dog walking alongside monks on their pilgrimage for peace. It serves as a living reminder that the journey toward a more harmonious world isn't just a human endeavor—it's a collective one.

In teaching, "peace" is not merely the absence of conflict; it is a state of mind and a way of being. Here are a few reflections on why this walk matters:

1. The Power of Metta (Loving-Kindness)

The Buddha taught Metta, the practice of unconditional love for all sentient beings. Seeing Aloka lead the way reminds us that compassion knows no species. When we walk for peace, we walk for everyone—human and animal alike.

2. Mindfulness in Motion

A peace walk is a form of walking meditation. Each step is taken with intention and presence. In a world that prizes speed and "hustle," these monks (and their loyal companion) teach us that the most significant changes often come from slow, steady, and mindful persistence.

3. Interconnectedness (Pratītyasamutpāda)

None of us exists in a vacuum. We are all part of a delicate web of life. Aloka’s presence symbolizes the harmony that is possible when we respect our environment and the creatures within it.

4. Leadership through Humility

True leadership isn't about ego; it's about service. Whether it is a monk dedicated to the Dhamma or a dog dedicated to his pack, leading for peace requires a heart free of pretension.

Let’s take a lesson from Aloka and these dedicated monks today: How can we bring a little more peace, patience, and compassion into our professional and personal lives? 🌿
