Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
Made me realised on how much growth I can do & still need to do Be interesting & don’t think so many - just do & live Too many thoughts inside your brain - you gotta divert the energy to around your world eyesight Take what’s most interesting and take it in. Ask interesting questions The energy and emotional…
This is the deal. There are no "one size fits all" solutions in reality. You can see this out there in different realms. Be it the product creation, the medical, online course, financial and so on. It's like that meme of the different characters along the bell curve. Which also relates quite well with the graph of…
I was 13 or 14 when access to the internet became something that lots of 'normal' people could have. I instantly got it, this was a complete shift in accessibility of information AND the ability to participate in 'publishing' and sharing your own creations. It took me 6 years to go from there to building websites,…
I waited in the train station restroom. A woman exited the stall, telling me, “There’s no more tissue, but I had some in my purse, so I left a small tissue pack on the dispenser.” That is when I knew I am not as kind and friendly as I thought. Scotland's culture is similar to the United States. We don’t dress…
I wonder when it first dawned on me that one day I will not be here anymore. Was it when I was 12, roller-skating, back in my hometown? Afraid to fall or be thrown to the ground, always afraid to hurt myself beyond repair. Dreading the pain, my fists clenched, gliding on the edges of the rink. Or was it at 18, when I…
She was in my dreams last night, this is not the first time that it has happened. Her thoughts resurface every now and then. I look at her pictures sometimes, think about our times together. Were we just kids who did not understand love completely? Did we weigh ourselves down with the word 'love', when instead we…
A dream is like a seed in a garden. The right conditions must exist for a seed to achieve its full potential. The environment must yield the right amount of water, sunlight, air, nutrients. A gardener initiates the process and works with nature to sustain it. With dreams, we mistakenly believe that everything is up to…
i am a temporary software developr my code is written is compiled but never commited i forget it the binary exists but its not mine anymore it's someone elses
i just did something new i commented on a tim senesi yoga video where he had a thumbnail of himself cringing @ and judging you and with the words "you're doing this wrong" and said that i think he's otherwise a splendid force in the world but that it's essentially beneath him to clickbait and say things that feed on…
Can we all just agree to spell the word "thru?" Imagine the environmental impact of saving all those electrons and ink not having to write "through." Probably won't happen, tho.
If God really loved us, would He make us make coffee before we’ve had coffee?
Imagine a time when the institutional machinery (read: governments & other agents that mass-organise people and resources) successfully pulls off something beyond belief. I am not talking about the run-of-the-mill political propaganda. I am talking about upheaving lives and livelihoods in a single decision. (Think the…
I was talking to someone I care for deeply. They didn’t see the need to write or journal. There is so much already out there to read. Why would they write? Who would read it? They don’t see what I do. You journal for the benefits. The benefits are hard to see unless you journal enough to experience them. My friend…
This 100-day project does not take weekends off. But I'm staying true to my overall writing philosophy: write something every day. In my mother's immortal words, "Keep Saturday Saturday: start late and go slow." I started very late, 2pm, and the 15 minute goal to write anything project-related became 30 and 45 and…
Retirei-me daqui porque as coisas não andaram fáceis emocionalmente. Busquei conforto nas páginas secretas que coleciono, em formato de diário, no Google Drive, onde minha vida se mantém suspensa nas nuvens. Na última noite eu tive insônia. Fiquei horas escrevendo textos imaginários para publicar. Todos pareciam…
It is totally awesome to be free of the external judgement. To create without the fear to be misunderstood, to express any opinion being equal in probability to be discussed free of prejudice. Such an approach gives an adequate perception of the surrounding phenomena, allows to connect cause and consequence without…
This morning I rose at 11AM, which is typical for me on weekends. I did the usual brush and shower. After my first meal of the day, which I suppose would not exactly have been breakfast, I sat at the dining table with a cup of coffee. I felt a need to figure out what I was going to do. Meanwhile, I had begun browsing…

when you transfer money from one account to another account, in the memo/notes section write a self-affirmation i wrote: "i am full of love" next time i could say something like: "i have everything i need to be peak happy" which is true i do have everything i need all i need is my imagination and fresh air and…
What if we stuff Samosa with Kachori stuffing and vice versa. Which one would you call Samosa now? Is Samosa a Samosa because of its shape or how Intel says 'Look Inside'. Similarly, what makes us humans? Faltu baatein apart, Could someone please experiment with stuffing kachori with samosa stuffing and blah blah and…
Read this in a post on Instagram which said, "It's crazy how each day that passes feels the same, but when we look back, everything seems different." I was dissolved in a trail of thoughts. I think a big reason for this is that change often happens gradually, in a series of small events. It's not always a one-time…
Les dates se confondent ; les jours sont les mêmes. Je me réveille un matin pour réaliser que trois mois sont passés. Mes repères temporels ne suffisent pas à sauver ma pauvre horloge interne. Je vis des journées de trente heures suivies de nuits de dix-huit heures. Ce rythme de vie fut fatal à ma notion du temps,…
Not really sure what to write here. Just checking this website out. I'm thinking of using this more if I find it fancy, as I don't really have the habit of writing and I'm sort of thinking about getting into it. Peace out.
As a fellow degen, I've done my fair share of discord grinding. Most times, it almost feels like a job. In the rarer (and best) cases, it feels natural and becomes like a virtual third place. The problem is if you want to be a degen, you have to continue grinding in other discords to get those other WL opportunities.…
what is self doubt and why does it matter? self doubt is not believing in yourself, not trusting your gut. you could be the most talented person on earth and not know it because you don't give yourself the chance . . how do we fix self doubt? - get yourself out there and experience - be active get some reps in - find…
Have you ever come across a woman who stole your heart from the moment you first laid eyes on her? I met her two weeks ago. A blazing soul that seared away any remnants of my past lovers. She laughs at my jokes. She blushes when I flirt. When I offer chocolates she declines once and then accepts. I told her she was…
Think while do, but do more than think - is what a youthful soul would do Join more events meet more people do not be afraid nobody can bring you down except yourself Energy levels - always want to know the latest updates Not afraid of asking questions Knowing that eventually it will go to you Knowing the latest…
I. Humans began their story on this Earth as brutish, violent, tribal knuckle-draggers, barely distinguishable from their ape relatives. Over thousands of years of gradual genetic and cultural evolution, humanity has marched through history to achieve progressively more peaceful and prosperous societies. We're slowly…
I didn't sell enough in the last cycle. I made too many long-term bets on projects that have not (🤞🏻yet🤞🏻) captured attention this cycle. Cardano, Polkadot, Cosmos, Ripple & Polygon, primarily. My thesis was that these are long-term projects/investments, and while most of them are in profit from where I bought, I…
The comfort zone is a deceptive piece of shit that keeps trying to stop me from having formative experiences. Although I am aware of this, it hits me every time and each time it costs me a great deal of effort to overcome it. The good news is that the comfort zone expands with every new experience, when seeking…
Scrolling down Strolling down the web Trying to find something that speaks more This website of blogs seems to have the last post in 2022. I'm wondering if there are more people on here. Where did you all go? Did no one stay?
When I'm with you, I feel like I'm a thousand feet tall. When I think I've lost you, I feel like I'm dying. I live for all the little moments I spend with you, your smile, your voice, the little curve of your nose and the silly way you make the worst things funny. You are never far from my thoughts. I could write a…
What is a model for radical honesty, and how can we communicate it in a way that others understand both our actions and their role in them? Consider a quadrant with "benefit to self" and "benefit to others" as its cornerstones. The opposite side consists of losses to oneself and others. Examining this model, what…
It is often said that you should surround yourself with friends who motivate you to do better and makes you wanna be the best version of myself. I totally agree with this. But what if my friends aren't ambitious? Should I just abandon them for the greater good? I also agree that it affects me in some way or the other,…
Sunil Gopal made me a runner. We met in the early days of college, probably introduced by a common friend. He was India Junior No.1 in squash (and had played Jansher Khan), an established runner and had built some pretty darn good amateur loudspeakers in boarding school. I was a middling cricketer, an accidental…
I've always been a bit on the fence about journaling, but I've just come across a very good argument for it - clearing the human cache. It is true that we get bogged down in thoughts, I know I do anyway, and it leads to pages of messy scribbles as I write out hour-by-hour plans for the days ahead on the same page as…
if i had infinite money i would be so happy. and i wouldn't even buy anything extravagant i have literally no need for it. i would just live the way i do forever but not worry about money. there are people who would wanna work even if they didn't have to. not. me. i dont wanna work. i just wanna read, write, relax,…
As far as I know there are two types of hotels in New York. There are the ones I go to now, using an app that shows me good deals for luxe stays based on daily vacancies. These places are modern, well-appointed, display vintage claptrap in the lobby, and feel like Wes Anderson movie sets. The bar has some kid with a…
3. writing -- i have so many things to say and no one to say them to, so i write. i say i have no one to talk to not because i literally have no friends or acquaintances but because when talking, one needs to consider the interests of one's conversation partner, and it is exhausting to limit oneself to topics which…
It’s because everyone has their own set of mind And most times high level individual are usually very self aware - You gotta be stronger and more attractive The way you do things etc Don’t 后知后觉 when you think of something think it to the end. Whatever you do Of course it’s better to JUST DO Though you could’ve done…
I can't begin to count the number of new beginnings I have declared. Maybe it's my perfectionist streak in me that demands this. Maybe I should fix this, maybe not. But I do hope to make this one count. There are a few things, I aim to implement in my life. Firstly, thinking about mine and others' failures. I'm going…
i'm trying to understand what it is that i so admire in a person i will name people i admire and see if i can spot a pattern: (1) M - truly conceited - has a dream, has a plan (and carries it out, somewhat) - content - telepathic understanding (2) H - truly conceited - has many dreams, many plans (AND CARRIES THEM…
For the past two weeks work has been quite stressful. We have this major change going through the system and I am running point. Now normally this wouldn't scare me but there is a lot of attention on this one. Ever step is being judged and reconsidered. Every day I get another earful of caution. Don't make a wrong…
i just read an article about forks being the least famous and favoured utensil compared to its mates knives and spoons. it's not even about the topic that intrigues me. it's about knowing this fact now when it already feels so natural for us to use this thing, like it is an extension of our body when we eat. however,…
Barrenness isn't supposed to be beautiful. But in Paracas, it somehow is. Windy, dusty salt flats, gently curved dunes, cloud capped mountains, jagged cliffs, dark sand, and a seaweed filled ocean. They combine to create a landscape that would look strange even on a postcard. There's no fresh water for miles, so most…
Depois de um post inteiro reclamando, quero tirar um tempo para agradecer o que me tirou risadas nos últimos dias - teve um momento que eu e o conge assistimos a um filme de comédia. O que parecia ser um filme besta de adolescente realmente surpreendeu e nos arrancou boas risadas na sexta-feira a noite. Meu amor deu…
In LYT, a question posed was exploring whether folks lack interest in publishing. Part of the context was one's possible tendency to focus too much on expressing one's self to one's self. Here's my abridged/edited response. --- I don't know if there is a right or wrong approach about one's publishing process. I face a…
Some of the best ideas are from someone else. In my two years of journaling daily, I’ve been open to trying new prompts. Some prompts are keepers. Others don’t last. My format came from many sources. I journal in the morning and evening. My morning routine, in the order I adopted them into the format. Gratitude - Two…
