Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
People find their own ways on how they want to give back to society and people in their lives. Giving back to society is about making a positive impact, and there is always something out there for everyone. My mother was not from a very wealthy background, so she would say there will never be a perfect time to give…
Coming home to a refreshing pool, a beautiful sunset, a delicious BBQ dinner, surrounded by loving parents feels like paradise. I‘m so lucky.
If you want to be 健谈; you just gotta try to use your brain Before meeting — think what’s going to talk about; put effort and interest into it & technically just don’t be lazy. For example if you’re going to a badminton session. Everyone should be interested in badminton. You can search from rackets, shoes, badminton…
Masculine powers vs Feminine powers Is just a natural attraction energies It’s not your job to make people “attracted” to your energies Each person is finding that partner that can succumb to their energies levels Live your best 20s Work on your personality The time to be the best extreme at everything is now Taken a…
it costs as much to buy Holzfällen from Amazon.it as it does to buy it from Orellfuessli but whereas Amazon will deliver it this weekend, S has to fly to Switzerland first to then bring me back the book but since we already have an Orellfuessli giftcard...but I also don't want his mom looking at the book thinking…
ahhh! today creation is hard. it frustrates me. reoccurring in my mind as an emotion, fades from top to bottom. somewhere in the gradient is the perfect colour that represents the output of my frustration
Ah! the speed of our world does not sync with our concept of time. most experience time at a different pace to others and is relative to their context. there is an exception though, find the person who shares your speed. because with them the context of time become irrelevant...
então! eu comi uma grama de cogumelo. depois de uma semana produtiva, que ainda não acabou, e de momentos memyselfandI, decidi dar esse passo e tirar esse querido da geladeira que já tava fazendo aniversário. acho que tava meio mofado, mas who knows? bem, foi tudo, brisas gostosas, outras nem tanto. meu namorado que…

Last week I went down a YouTube rabbithole of credit card optimization. I watched loads of videos of extremely smart people showing off how they maximized their credit card reward rates. Not just smart people – rich smart people. Folks whose time is money. Somehow, each of them determined that spending hours of their…
I am immensely grateful to have my mother, whose unconditional love provides me with constant support and comfort. Knowing that someone in this world loves me so deeply and unconditionally is a huge blessing that enriches my life every day.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH i dont see failures as a negative. they frustrate me, knowing i can be better. i can see what can be improved and how to execute it. the hardest step is becoming better than the vision of my better self...
Let's do a thought experiment here. There's an ultimate all knowing being. It's the source of what makes us aware. It's the entity that's looking out of your eyes. It's job is to experience as much of life in this universe as possible. The place it calls home is a place of infinite possibility. Infinite options…
I found 105 articles about growing small businesses that I don't remember writing. I know the writing was forgettable because I'm running a business now and suffering from all of the stuff I talked about. Memory has some peculiar characteristics that help explain why so much of my writing feels like I'm shouting in…
The world announces itself loudly. It never asks for permission. It arrives as friction, metal against rail, voices colliding, engines coughing smoke into the afternoon. People move with purpose or pretend to. Everyone is going somewhere. Everyone is late. Noise becomes the proof of existence. I stand inside it and…
Day-4 of my 30 day atomic essay streak. This one's about how I used mindful repetition to teach myself meditation. For my essays so far, the concept of 'Mindful Repetition' has been the only anchor. If you're unfamiliar with it, then please read 'Essay 2: Mindful Repetition, Compounds.' I have been wanting to practice…
It’s me…again…here bc I’m wondering what will resonate if/when Twitter really does shift into a place I no longer want to be.
After half a year obsessing over the university that I actually got into, I finally saw it in person. Its so weird, it's so different, felt so different. The campus matched the multiple videos that I saw, it felt a bit smaller, but its so much better than I ever imagine, cause I'm actually here, experiencing and being…
There are two types of learning: structured and unstructured. The first is like reading a textbook from the start to the end. The second abandons all formal progression through learning material. There's one reason why those who follow an unstructured approach end up ahead. When you go through a formal course, you're…
It’s true - believe in the power of attraction Who you mix with take the average of 5 and it’ll become you E - said he’s becoming less ambitious Which is true I think it’s because he’s been working from home Read books and know people That will inflame your fire Like how you mix with G And know Y&and her dad. These…
To understand a system, you must define its boundaries, forming its own “universe.” While we often think of individuals as separate from their environment, in reality, they are deeply interconnected. Evolutionary constraints highlight this relationship: organisms are shaped by and respond to their surroundings. The…
some of the first things that i want to read now, before i really start reading a book, is the "about the author" section and i've noticed that it is usually like - birth year - birth place - current place of residence and it's like: why? why is this the info they choose to share? and when talking about artists of any…
Today I went to pick up my parents from the airport. First, the parking ticket didn’t go through, and the car behind me started honking. My dad went and shouted at them. Then, I took the wrong road, and we ended up in a bad area of the city. My dad was furious. Every word that came out of his mouth was loud,…
I'm a big fan of Steven Strogatz's writings. He's an applied mathematician with Cornell & has a flair for making you love mathematics. A concept from one of his books - 'Infinite Powers' stuck with me for a while. "You can reach potential infinity but not completed infinity. Unless there's calculus." It's a beautiful…
Such a stupid word, really. Disappointment. According to Oxford, "sadness or displeasure caused by the nonfulfillment of one's hopes or expectations." While I've never enjoyed the spotlight during recognition of accomplishments, even birthdays, I learned pretty recently how greatly disappointed I feel when my…
a little bummed that the sun goes down at 5:30 and at 6:00 it feels like midnight i like the night but still it is far too early to feel like i have to start cooking... i'm starting to like poetry (thanks, sylvia plath) also i am no longer afraid that i won't have time to read all the books i want to read i am now…
a digital world may enable us to have a continuous performance that has no defined start or finish. it exists like a dream. each person would experience a different beginning as they enter. this threshold is your start yet we can extrude this threshold to how you enter the performance space. a loading screen? a social…
Do things you think are stupid but other people swear by. Maybe you’re the stupid one. - Nat Eliason I fought the recommendation to journaling. Now I know everyone should. If you want to start small with a journaling habit, start with gratitude. Here are the benefits you can expect. Identifying what you have, allows…
Shit day - but never forget where you came from & lose sight of where you wanna be. Be like Alvin Tan. Confident, if not anything he at least brings his best out. Don’t have to be shy and negative about yourself - thinking what you say is not going to be correct. Just say you whatever you want to say. At least you’re…
I struggle to understand my emotions.My calibration ranges from sad,happy,hurt and angry.Beyond this I go "Idk it felt weird/not nice". An incident is making me ponder over this incapability and its real meaning. Context:I'm not close with my relatives.I don't share,ask about their lives,don't call,dont spend time…
We went to school together. We have known each other for twenty plus years. Given your unsocial behaviour, your family is surprised that you have maintained a friendship so old. The only other relationship older than ours is that with your family members. We have literally taken work from home opportunity to our…
We like to think of ourselves as rational decision-makers who are persuaded to accept arguments and ideas on the basis of logical merit. This is laughably divergent from how things really work. The idea itself that humans are rational decision-makers has no basis in empirical observation; it is just some wishful…
Someone grabs your jacket as you walk by and they won’t let go. Immediately, your senses are heightened. You think this person wants to fight, but you turn around to see a kind smile. Please don’t leave, they say, I see that you are a man of God and I need to know more. A humbling experience. What does it say about…
HAVE I SAID ALL I HAVE TO SAY? Do those I love know the depth and history of that love, and that it persists beyond dimensions? Why am I waiting to tell them? Am I waiting for perfection before sharing my thoughts in writing or via speeches? What opportunity will I lose if the moment passes? HAVE I DONE WHAT I HAVE TO…
today my thoughts about the future of digital worlds was more of how to make them 'abstract'. my reason is because good design that aims for longevity is not one that stands out, it generally embeds itself into a way of life, a culture. as i continue to develop ideas and critique digital worlds, having a design that…
i wish we had better trains, better role-models, better air, better coping mechs, and higher risk-appetite what if i continue using this as twitter and not create anything of value what th hell
- a way to receive money - a portfolio (Zapper) - your identity (ENS) - an access key (to discords and events) - a treasury account (for DAOs) - an investment club (by Syndicate) - your reputation (6529) - your verifiable track record (trading history) - an art collection (with NFTs) - an email/chat account (via…
Minha amiga linda, generosa, engraçada, debochada, alto astral, cuidadoso, que me introduziu na militância, que pegou na minha mão jovenzinha e recém entrada na faculdade e disse "isso é uma questão de raça. Isso é de gênero, isso é de classe". Ela quem também insistiu inúmeras vezes para que eu entrasse formalmente…
For a long time now, I was eager to write content on a niche topic but was not able to do it due to lack of ideas. Now I have one idea on which I'm focused on, creating guides and publish them for public. The choices that I have to publish these guides on are: LinkedIn, Medium, Substack, Landing pages and website. I…
To quote John Biggs: "Ok now what." Seriously though, I like this vast empty space with just a black text thing. Good stuff.
But it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t achieve happiness while striving for something that is so meaningless Sometimes I can’t help to wonder but it’s not too convenient To meet you at a fate To wake up at dreams that are not not supposed to end And the alarm goes off to wake me to reality I miss her but I should not…
This is by far the most important and most difficult lesson I've learned over the past years. I'm still getting better at it more and more but it's not easy. The whole gist of it is that you should do what you have to do at the time that you have to. Sounds pretty simple but you'd be hard pressed to find someone out…
plane tickets and a dusty suitcase stacked away in lofts, in your search you only found the one thing that was never lost and yet you yearn for parts of you you cannot reclaim because your broadened horizon means you’re not the same and yourself is the only one to blame.
Otra vez me alcanzó la madrugada, 2:26 para ser exactos. Gracias por leerme. En este mini blog, como creo que eso es este formato de 300 palabras. Decidí que voy a estar escribiendo ideas e historias más personales. Hoy en internet uno debe vender o venderse, por lo que a veces las ideas e historias personales ya no…
I think some way or other people are connected. they always stay connected maybe not physically maybe not socially and even not mentally but you just have the instinct in you that you miss this person but somehow you have this gut feeling of what they have been doing or if something serious takes place in their life.…
Something of vanilla, bourbon, and lingering notes of all the versions of you that lived in this cloth. Yesterday, I thought it was over. I'm not quite sure what happened, I must have been too consumed with all of you that I felt within the coat that I didn't even notice the button, second from the top, loosen between…
Our outward appearance tells others a lot. Wear a suit and show your business personality Wear an orange robe and show your religious personality Wear harem pants and show your free-spirit personality This is all signaling. By signaling we let others know that our "culture" exists. Now here's the problem.. We, humans…
Something I have learnt about myself. I was always confused about why I was an F in MBTI. I thought I was through and through T. I overthink all the time, don’t I? But I now realise that I’m very dependent on my feelings, and they really dictate my life. For example, I can think something, it can make a lot of…
