Anand Mahindra shares his New Year resolution. Watch what inspired him

Anand Mahindra regularly tweets to his 10.2 million strong Twitter family.

Anand Mahindra is usually not the one to make New Year resolutions, he said. But a short video of an artist creating a sketch using chalk seemed to have inspired the industrialist to keep a resolution for 2023.

“The New Year will naturally have ups and downs but I hope to use the ‘downs’ or ‘negative spaces’ to help shape more positive internal spaces. I’ll try to use bad times to give me more resilience and empathy for others,” Mahindra, 67, tweeted on January 1, sharing a tweet by user Massimo (@Rainmaker1973) that inspired him.

“Negative space, in art, is the empty space around and between the subject(s) of an image,” says the text accompanying the video of the woman sketching.

Don’t usually make New Resolutions but this post did inspire one. The New Year will naturally have ups & downs but I hope to use the ‘downs’ or ‘negative spaces’ to help shape more positive internal spaces. I’ll try to use bad times to give me more resilience & empathy for others https://t.co/OVS4dhCVle
