Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
• DO WHAT YOU CAN. As long as you start momentum habits. • Principles are the same. You just had to apply. • Listen to your parents but don’t take advice from poor people. Instead, join and attract yourself to the rich. • Be clear in your mind - means doing hard work for the easiest tasks so that you don’t have…
I’m a big advocate of making the most out of the cards you’re dealt. Take what you have in the moment and start fixing things. Slowly but surely, and within a reasonable timeframe, you’ll get what you want — or at least you’ll be 2X or 10X better than when you first started. Even if don't get what you want, or get…
All I want is to see action Dreams without action (inactivity) is going to cause anxiety and negative feeling You need energy levels You need mental environment to tell that it’s okay no matter how fled it is You need to know accountability as well, only by doing you’ll be able to get to places you wanted to be Not a…
Today, my friends surprised me after my exam with an outing to an escape room. There were three of us, and initially, we thought we needed a leader. But once we started, my friend (1) and I couldn’t help but get distracted by all the information we could find. Friend (2) focused on the written clues while friend (1)…
You can impose fear by not talking to anyone and people might take you seriously But the better way is to gain respect That’s the hardest To be good at your job at the same time connecting human relationship It’s hard to beat that
It’s kinda a different feeling living without social media. It wouldn’t be this way if I hadn’t tried it for years. All my adult life was spent before a screen waiting for approval. Now I just sit in front of it.
Do your habits serve you? They should. Any habit you keep needs to serve you as long as you keep it. It only makes sense that your habits will change as your needs change. My journey with journaling is an example of this. My journaling has come a long way in 18 months. I started journaling three simple sentences of…
English is indeed a funny language. Though when your foundation in the language has been laid by Mrs. Usha Kagal, the language is anything but funny. It is fluid, accepting, non-judgmental and a conduit for the mind to think, explore and discover. Today in 2026 we talk about leaders who are vibrant and energetic. If…
"gonna just put on some classical music and write" never ends well because i will just fully want to listen and not write at all but i can listen to rap and write sometimes
Imagine if the earliest explorers were asked to create an itinerary before they set out to travel. Absurd, right? But that has completely changed for the rest of us. We travel after meticulous planning. In fact, our planning is so meticulous there is a whole industry around curating trips. Travel influencers are a…
Sostengo que Tony Robbins le hizo (hace) mucho daño al mundo. Él creó el mundo de los Gurús y en consecuencia, muchos querían ser machos/hembras "alfa". Personalmente, nunca me subí al tren. Yo siempre supe que mi única competencia era yo mismo. Todos los días tenía que hacer algo mejor que ayer. Disciplina le llaman.…
Maybe I'm biased, but I don't believe that people are fundamentally lazy. Our whole modern world seems founded on this misconception. Why do people need jobs? Because, if they didn't have them, they'd give themselves over to lounging and debauchery. Every person is a malingerer at heart. Can this really be true? In my…
This is the way I'll be going about for mostly all that I do in the upcoming year. 2023. This is an idea that popped up in my head in my leisure time. The more I think about it, the more that I realize it's pretty on point and summarizes many of the learnings of the previous 2 pandemic years. There are many things…
então, eu posso ter demorado imensamente, mas voltei! e só finalizo esse blog quando atingir 365 posts. ontem eu assisti incompatível com a vida e chorei... chorei por ter me visto me despedindo, cantando, dançando, gritando, desguando sobretudo. pode sair, tá tudo bem. também pandemia. também ecos. também vômitos de…
Complexity will make you successful 不该认真的时候不要太认真 幽默才能过得更久 所以有时太认真 看清更多事实 会更难生存 (analogy - if you see every each dust in the particles you won’t feel good) Another thing is do it now. Or think it now. What is the thing that you don’t feel like doing but you think you SHOULD’VE been doing… don’t think. Just do it!
I was sitting around and doing some work, and it hit me. This is the best feeling there is. It's the height of existence. Paradoxically, it's the opposite of what we all chase. Everyone wants the easy wins and the pleasures of life. Successful people say they miss the times they had to struggle. What hit me was a…
Sometimes I wonder what kind of life we all are actually living, are we truly happy with ourselves right now or it just a façade to just get by. Sometimes I wonder what we are truly afraid of, is it fear of rejection, fear of alienation by our peers or fear of showing weakness, because for me being vulnerable with…
Life is simple, but we make it complicated. Life is a like a game, but at times we focus on it too much. Life is exciting, but sometimes we take precautions Life is coming out of your comfort zone, but we are scared of falling into pieces. Life is like dancing in the rain, but we are afraid we might catch a cold. It…
I really miss YouTube. I gave it up for Lent and talked about it here. But I truly do miss being on the platform, talking with subscribers, watching videos in my free time, and creating helpful content for those looking to make intentional tech purchases. Luckily, I do have a good amount of sponsored videos lined up…
A writer doesn't choose to write. That's why they often run from it. Avoid it to the point they'll procrastinate. They'll clean instead of clean (express) the interior of their mind. It's easy to run away from the work. But, a writer is called to do the work, regardless of the outcome. I've heard other writers say,…
Oh Hi! This seems so cool! 🤩 I love it, simple and clean. Oh it counts words not letters. Means,ifIdon’tUseSpace,itCountsJustOneWordLOL(thisIsStill1word!HaHa). Very interesting. I love this font, it makes me feel like I’m coding 😂
Hoje eu fiz as pazes com uma grande amiga, uma daquelas amigas que estavam aqui desde que o Guilherme Candido deixou de ser Guilherme Hurts, cresceu barba e disse que tinha o sonho de fazer filmes. Essa amizade me auxiliou no caminho tortuoso do audiovisual e me fez chegar em outros lugares que eu não teria chego…
When I started journaling, I read about all the benefits except one. Journaling is a tool for change. If you journal, you are ready for change. If you’re not a journaler, you need a daily journaling habit to assist you in making a change. Journaling provides four strategies to use when seeking a change. 1. Knowledge…
When was the last time did you try or buy some thing out of your own curiosity or without any feedback? Must have been a very very long time i am sure. Today for everything and anything we have an app and someone would have written a feedback about the product or the service which you want to buy or try. This has made…
What do we say to the god of procrastination? Not today.
I’m Nanaji of Akhil and Abhi. My grandson, Akhil, made me start writing this blog, to share my memories and events of my daily life.
Is to do every single little thing right Even if you’re out of time You still use NOW as a start Wake up and it’s a new beginning Put 💯 onto every single task I want you to monitor how you breathe All your action is going to make so many difference So you gotta fortify your mind; put a purpose Rather than feeling the…
Every single human society that has ever existed, past or present, has had to contend with the question of how to control the generative impulse. Variously identified as the will to power, yetzer hara (יצר הרע), or "toxic masculinity," it is almost always referred to in terms that are more male than female, and…
Of all the things people tweet about online regarding startups, I've not seen a single one about cofounder dynamics. Yet, in my experience, cofounder dynamics are one of, if the not the, most important aspect of a young startup. Cofounders can argue and disagree. Individuals have egos sand insecurities. People have…
i mean, why not just write it in a private journal? or go the other way and book-publish all your thoughts? just look at sheila heti, publishing a catalogue of thoughts from her diary alphabetized from a-z (she is so busy that she can't even organize them by theme NOT TO BORROW SCHOPENHAUER'S IDEAS LEST HE CALL ME A…
In the past, I struggled so much to fall asleep. Every night was a real-life nightmare, with my brain refusing to shut down and winding up in all these hypothetical scenarios that brought me anxiety. But strangely, that doesn’t happen when I read before going to bed. Reading before sleeping, apart from making my eyes…
ahhh quickly sketching out ideas makes me think of how 'real' that idea can become. if the sketch is too perfect to begin with, then that idea is generally not special enough. it is the ideas which start out murky that have the most potential, because they tend to be in a realm where they do not exist yet.
Non-monetized. Is that even a term? I was recently creating a page on my Notion called "leisure + fun". It basically has 1 database with all my hobbies and leisure activities. But I soon realized that there's only one hobby or leisure activity that I regularly enjoy doing and haven't monetized. That's reading books.…
i like volcanoes the same way i like indie movies and indie books: volcanoes are different from "normal" landmasses but they're also different from each other i've been on two volcanoes: Kīlauea on Hawai'i and Mt. Etna on Sicily my favorite is Mt. Etna i am curious about this one volcano in Indonesia which has "blue…
If Apple does release a slimmer new iPhone, it will likely do so in 2025 as part of the iPhone 17 lineup, say reports from Haitong International Securities analyst Jeff Pu and co-founder and CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants Ross Young (as reported by 9to5Mac). Kuo, Bloomberg and The Information have reported…
there was a study with mice where "the mice have a lever that they can press any time they want. When they press the button, a special optical sensor, which controls specific neurons in their brain, activates their dopamine neurons" anyway they pressed the button until they died with no desire of food or drink if…
Airport Arrival Terminals are a places filled with joy. Families and friends reconnecting, giving each other a warm hug and a kiss. Some, weirdly enough, spraying hand sanitizers as soon as possible. People stand waiting behind a railing waiting to get a glimpse of their loved ones, and as soon as they see them, their…
I scored 11 out of 11 here. This has been, I suppose, the greatest source of psychic pain. It’s hard to cope, when you’re constantly reminded that the way your mind works is a mess. There are benefits to this psychic disorganization, it just takes some time and understanding to accept the benefits. I’ve accused myself…
It's counterintuitive but I think it's true. We struggle to find time to stretch our creative muscles. But modern creativity doesn't come with more freedom. It comes with more restriction. Think of Morning Pages. It became wildly successful among creative professionals because it forces you to write 3 pages. No more,…
If my manager read a page of my code contributions in the last month, it would either mean nothing to him or he would draw the wrong conclusions. Adding code doesn't make one a valuable contributor. It just means you're a contributor. The hubris of thinking that managers (or CEO's...😂) can discern anything of value…
Llegué. Fui recebida por um motorista sorridente. Vi primeiro o céu, que de um amanhecido recente, servia de palco para passarinhos dançantes. Até os prédios, de tão grandes, refletiam o que parece ser normal por essas terras: o calor de gente. Calor de salsa, de sol, de tesão, de pimenta. Calor que nem sei como é que…
First post. I have no idea what I'll write here or whether I will even write at all after this first post. Let's see how it turns out.
i guess i suppose i can’t say for sure but then again maybe can neither confirm nor deny that you’re in my mind all the time maybe I’ll win maybe I’ll loose maybe it’ll just blow the fuse and we’ll sit there in the dark pitch black wondering how to make it out of this mess
I recently began working as an electrical apprentice under a Master Electrician. He's a Colombian immigrant with a work ethic that is simply staggering. He's up at 3:45 in the morning, goes to the gym, intermittent fasts, is at work by 7am, prays with his team and hits the road. He is calm, patient, neat and quiet and…
one of the nicest things about being a hospital for over 5 hours is the kind of people you meet. note that when i say 'meet' i don't mean small talk, making new friends type of meeting - i mean instances where you start recognising another's face and when they smile at you, you smile back. those type of interactions…
Nov 20, 2023 marks a few approaching ends—the conclusion of the year, the nearing end of my mid-20s, and the closing of this chapter of my life. I have found a myriad of tools to distract me from my anxiety, with nostalgia being a key one. I dress in '90s fashion to emulate the teenagers I saw when I was a kid in LA,…
I recently watched a viral clip of a podcast in which Tyler Cowen asks Marc Andreessen about the concrete advantage of web3. Marc attempts to explain, but doesn't do anywhere close to as good a job as you'd expect him to. And the skeptics loved it. That got me thinking - I've been bullish about web3 for quite a while;…
Why bother so much about not making a mistake - like KS. The point of this life is to make as many as possible. The way of saying “what’s the point of playing Sudoku if you don’t even bother getting it right or wrong” - is actually not the essence of life. The point of life is to make as many mistakes as possible -…
