Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
As human organizations grow in size and complexity, they tend toward selecting for conformity over competence. If unchecked, this tendency can lead to ruin. Why does this happen? In order for the organization to be effective in pursuing its goals, the proportion of individuals tasked with making strategic decisions…
"Finish something. Anything. Stop researching, planning, and preparing to do the work and just do the work. It doesn’t matter how good or how bad it is. You don’t need to set the world on fire with your first try. You just need to prove to yourself that you have what it takes to produce something. There are no…
Don’t fool yourself. I don’t anymore. Most mornings, I get this strong urge to just dive into work right away. Like, do something, anything, just to feel like I’m being productive. My hands need to be busy, right? But here’s the truth: that’s a trap. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I used to believe that starting…
Being you is therapy to your soul heart and brain .But yes it is not easy and can be lonely most of times! But cherishing your own self your ideals your perspectives of life can be so soothing ! Stop chasing to be like someone who you don’t want to be like . Be YOu & your brain can rest in your skull taxfree
Over the years, my relationship with my parents has been very superficial. They haven't known much about my life beyond the most general aspects because I wasn't really allowed to date, go out with friends, or try sports like surfing or snowboarding. So, I had to keep things low-key. Now that they’ve realized I can…
Sabe aqueles momentos um pouco antes de acordar que a gente fica pensando no dia, nas coisas que tem pra fazer, no que vamos comer, se está sol, com quem temos que falar? Pois então, hoje o principal pensamento foi "o que eu vou escrever no nicheless?". E tive várias ideias, o que não é comum. Geralmente eu escrevo…
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
There is generally good awareness on the importance of gratitude tracking and how that improves mental health. There is a tendency to make gratitude noting as a mega milestone kind of event like, child birth, exams, promotion, and more recently, what is trending also is daily micro gratitude practices, where listing…
Os passarinhos cantam e eu tenho tempo de parar, olhar pra cima e procurar a beleza. A lagoa da Pampulha não é um parque com entrada, tipo o Ibirapuera. O restaurante que eu queria comer está fechado, pois está localizado no subsolo do mercado novo e só abre de segunda a sábado. Soube disso porque fui perguntar para…
Anything you could achieve can be seen when you’re young When your SOLE and ONLY purpose is the grades inside your REPORT CARD When the only thing you’ve wanted is really just to get good grades And you didn’t work hard & you knew you didn’t study that much And you got bad grades with Cheehou (that was the dream…
To the ones, Laying awake at night, Wondering if you’ll ever find someone. Scrolling through Instagram, Looking through the window of life, And it seems like the Whole world is finding love, You’re happy for them. But there’s a whisper, A doubt, A tiny prick to the heart “Will I ever be as happy as them?” Some of us…
Cash is king. And sales brings in the cash. Prior to working for startups, I my broader education largely came from my MBA and following the "startup press" - i.e. the thought-leading founders and VCs who produce so much content about startups: blogs, Twitter, podcasts, etc. With some notable exceptions neither had…
I came across nicheless from a wonderful newsletter I am subscribed to called 'Read Something Great'. The newsletter, hosted on Substack, sends me a 'long read' (blogs/articles that are longform essays taking more than 10 minutes to read) and a 'short read'. Nicheless was mentioned on a 'short read' newsletter from…
Being a second-year law student, it is my personal goal that I need to develop my legal writing. This exercise will not only help me perform better in law school (I hope), but also give me an idea of what my strengths and interests are, thus giving me an insight into which path to choose after completing law school. I…
When it comes to marketing, I'm confused about the 'who'. Conventional internet wisdom says you should pick a tight niche. But the reality for most successful products is that they cater to more than one type of person. Think Canva, or Uber, or Freshdesk, or Basecamp...do any of these market to a specific niche? The…
Or, “How have you been?” Or “How are you doing?”. These are one of the most cliched questions. When you get to its heart, it’s about being honest with the person asking you. But do you want to be vulnerable in front of anyone? There are times you want to share a piece of your puzzled mind - not necessarily seeking…
I do not judge. I'm no saint and I've done my share of sins, hence I do not judge. I'm here to help in whatever way you need me to. I cannot tell you what is right or what is wrong or what you should do or what you should've done. I cannot tell you because I do not know myself. But I will do what you need me to do.…
Por um bom tempo na minha vida, tive dificuldade de colocar o pé para fora da zona de conforto. Mudanças eram assustadoras e eu gostava de permanecer aonde estivesse. Afinal, ali já estava, por quê sair? Ainda bem que o tempo passa, e que a vida sempre me forçou a sair dessa zona confortável. Ela sempre pôs pessoas no…
I beg myself to do the hard level things. Being disciplined is hard. Time is limited - I should be doing outside the box thing. It shouldn’t be hard; I’m only in a small Construction firm in a small country. Should not be limited to the small arduos tasks here. There’s still so much more to life: there’s CEO. There’s…
Used to think about the future. The past. The things I’ve not done. I should be doing this not that. But you used to forgotten that - if you keep worrying about You’re missing out on something that might add up to the pile - the PRESENT! The moment. Never be anxious by controlling yourself, your mindset If you still…
During Culturati's on-line January 13, 2025 "Preview of Conflict to Connection", Rajkumari Neogy was featured - https://youtu.be/VZaS5UiOmU?si=P5aMj5yJ1Q3YGiuu (recording). During the Q&A, I was reminded of a friend's pursuit of discrimination in his workspace thus posing the question. Because of the No FEAR Act, in…
We are having an argument. On social media. Well, you know, not exactly an argument. That's what everyone always calls it. Maybe it's a conversation, a dialogue? It's hard to tell. Sometimes it feels tense, but I can't really know can I? Is there a goal in mind or are we just passing time. What is the endgame, I being…
Everything is scripted. Media. Social media. Social circles. Everything is designed to pull emotion from your soul. That unsettled soul feeds the system, runs the power of the show. Our lives as words on a piece of (digital) paper amongst a (digital) reality. We are both the actors and the viewers. Actors desperate…
recentemente, recebi a notícia de que estava com uma infecção em decorrencia de um corpo estranho no meu corpito tão territorialista e fechado. toma-lhe dez dias de antibiótico. nesse meio tempo, viajei pro mato grosso, ponto central do brasil, para um evento sobre sementes. uma loucura de calor na rua + frio nos…
Let’s not be toxic towards yourself & to others Be loving Be better Broaden perspective Meet more people That comes from confidence Confidence comes from discipline You found yourself not feeling toxic anymore (she’s supposed to be feeling against me, etc etc) Which in fact Is there a spoken rule or a written one?…
What wellness practice(s) do you do for your business? Not too different from how I take care of my own health/wellness (e.g., annual check-ups, nourishment, movement, recovery/sleep time) - since about 2003 (more than 20 years), I do 3 types of SOLO / SELF activities, with minimal to zero discussions with…
There have been times when I've been told "good job" and it has made me uncomfortable. You'd expect "good job" to be encouraging. I did too. Except, it felt condescending and I never understood why. Until I came across Adlerian psychology and the difference between horizontal and vertical relationships. For the sake…
If you spend yourself chasing butterflies they will fly away If you spend your time making a beautiful garden they will come to you. Charisma - is something that means YOU PUT OTHER PEOPLE FIRST THAT IS FUCKING CHARISMA - oh my god. It’s that easy - nothing to do with personality; nothing to do with funny It’s just…
To refer to a phenomenon or quantity as being deficient implies that there is some proper amount one might expect to have. A gas tank that is three-quarters empty, for example, would rightly be considered deficient if our destination were two hundred miles away; a "gasoline deficit," as it were. It would be just as…
A lot of people likes to use the above graph and article to show how hard drive continue to fall. If you Zoom out over long enough period of course if will look fine. But if we look from 2013, where HDD price was slightly bumped up due to Thailand flooding, we saw price /GB went from $0.04 to $0.015 in 10 years time.…
Je me demande comment tout est connecté. La façon dont on se souvient du passé, la façon dont on imagine celui de demain. Comment les échelles interagissent entre elles, de l'individu au groupe à l'état. Au niveau temporel aussi, comment l'histoire influence nos actions, comment celles ci peuvent ensuite influencer le…
today i cannot keep myself from not publishing something. i have some ideas for a blogpost in my notes app, but they require research and thorough input. so i have decided to write and publish whatever comes to my mind. co-incidently today is also the day i picked up a fresh notebook and wrote my journal entry after a…
Listen to more podcast. W.o.w just Be more accepting. The charismatic people are usually competent - but doesn’t necessarily means JUST smart. It means knowing the stuff but knowing how to convey as well. It’s good to have the ability to stop 🛑 1. 2. 3. But within these 3 seconds you’re actually buying time to…
(literally 100 whole metric tons consisting only of $100 bills) i would: - buy forests/jungles/islands (as well as politicians) and declare these areas "protected national parks" - buy land that's currently being used for cultivating palm oil and mining lithium/etc. and reforest them, reintroduce native plants and…
Hace unas horas leí una frase que me impactó mucho que decía masomenos así: "No te elevas al nivel de tus metas, caes al nivel de tus hábitos" y dándole vueltas me quede impresionado por la poca importancia que le damos a muchos de nuestros hábitos. Si bien llevar una vida con hábitos correctos no es tan complicado,…
Are people who used to do the shit all the time all and all and all again Instead of being a NPC think what you’ve done in your younger days or been working up till now that you liked I feel like those people who you think are NPC (didn’t dare to comment on you and still hate on you internally) Are the ones who were…
An old colleague messaged me today about a memory he had of me. We haven't been in touch for a long time, so I was surprised at the message. I enjoy dancing. The times when all of us went out after work, I'd let my hair down. It was my first job after graduation. Our team was small, and most employee-manger rules…
We're so obsessed with the idea of permanence--we now fully believe in it. So much so, that it might as well be a new religion. Apart from words like 'forever' and 'endless' being used to describe our 'undying' affection/dislike for one another we've started to manifest permanence in other ways. Mostly by taking life…
Today, I'll be going to the gym. Since starting my training journey in August 2022, I've made significant progress. Before that, I had been suffering from hemiplegic migraine attacks since my early 20s which left me feeling drained for days. I reached a point where simple tasks like applying shampoo or inflating car…
Photography is hard, but working on this project has honestly really made it fun. Although it's taken me this long to finally have an image come out (if we can even call it that) I know I am going to enjoy this the more I shoot. Here is to more tests, fails, and successes.
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…
In my course Introduction to Design Project our main project is to make a lamp, do the ideation, 3d modeling, 3d printing and the electrical assembly of the final product. This course lasts for about 2 months and already in the 2nd week we already have to have some ideas of the concepts and lamps that we want to do.…
I like how Nicheless just has this whole, "I am a blank page and I dare you to write something on me," vibe to it.
I vividly remember my mother's outburst in the summer of 2013 when I ran away from a Bangalore internship within five days of joining. She was angry at my incompetency to stick to a job. She compared me to neighbours who settled in soulless jobs. Her disbelief in my post-graduate design education fueled my own anger.…
I am wondering what it takes to be all right today or on other days. Yesterday — or maybe two yesterdays ago — I was unsteady. I woke up and the breaths didn't want to escape my lungs through my mouth or their proper airways. I realize what was calling to me wasn't the mortal drag of my eventual drop to the ground.…
one thing i've always been shy to admit was that i always wanted my birthday to fall on a weekday because it meant that i could finally get attention from my friends or have a day all meant for me. birthdays are a funny concept - celebrating the day you were born when all i've wanted to do was dissapear. still, its…
codeberg.org merupakan website remote yang cukup customable dengan keamanan privasi yang ditingkatkan (klaim dari codeberg.com). Aku mulai menggunakan codeberg belum lama ini yang dikhususkan untuk hal-hal pribadi, sedangkan github aku khususkan untuk dokumentasi tugas kuliah atau proyek yang mengharuskan menggunakan…
The quantum of the gap between need and desire is inversely proportional to the degree of contentment we possess.
