To feel.
I wanna understand people. I wanna feel their words. And I wanna send a little noise into their heart. I wanna have a home in their heart. Is that too much? I don't think so.
Gathering thoughts…
Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
I wanna understand people. I wanna feel their words. And I wanna send a little noise into their heart. I wanna have a home in their heart. Is that too much? I don't think so.
Today, I hiked in a remote area. It was beautiful, but very muddy and slippery, and I fell a few times. Nothing more than wet feet and dirty clothes resulted, but it made me think what could happen if something serious occurred. Today, we have emergency services ready to deploy with cars, boats, and helicopters.…
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…
The day your parents come Is the day you test your emotional intelligence Remember it’s not always what you want It’s doing what THEY WANT Give it all up and relax for these 3 days 说话温柔体贴… ———— You used to always feeling not confident Is the result of your 4 years experience in uni You have your decision to choose You…
I’m not a big fan of competition. For many people, the race to the finish line is irresistible. No matter the game, something drives them to seek nothing less than first place. The idea of first place doesn’t motivate me. Whether I place first or 31st, it feels about the same. I don’t have any particular elation when…
There are moments that we don't really feel proud of, moments or decisions that come as an reaction to something, for example, responding in a certain way, with a certain tone of voice, but it just comes out of us. These moments as well as many other might it be good or bad experiences and reactions are still part of…
Empathy. Extremely important in the care industry. “You know you’re not being empathetic enough if the person in front of you ain’t crying” - I have always heard. As part of my day job, I am not supposed to be anyone’s therapist, but I end up needing to demonstrate empathy. When I was younger, I stuck to canned…
I'm grateful for people in my past. They are influences in my life who helped me shape the person who I am today - good and bad. Off late, I have been consciously choosing to focus on and spend MORE time on people who I have a common future with rather than those who I have a common past with. It's easy to get stuck…
I reflected on my Linkedin activity last week on the platform. The immediate response of my friends and their network within the first hour of posting felt good. People found the post amusing! So I of course HAD to post the same jab on twitter, and share a screenshot of the original post on my Instagram story. What…
Notifications control our lives. Every minute of my day, as my phone buzzes, I can't stop this unending desire to see what the notification was. I'm consumed by the apps on my phone. In a day, it doesn't seem so noticeable. But as the days add up, I live my life by the notification, more than by the moments. We all…
Is beauty an end? In a sense, yes. Pure beauty offers no new information; it resonates with what we already know, this is why we find it beautiful. Beauty refines our neuroverse-based abstract model, sharpening our understanding, in an infinite quest for micro-optimising the model, but eventually leading to stasis.…
I do like the restraint. I do enjoy the anonymity. I do love writing. Think I’ll stay and play a while.
One receives a phone call at 7.30 in the morning. An excited and almost tear jerked voice says they’ve hit water at 32 feet. The borewells in the region are at 780 feet. I can hear the joy in the voice with a slight surprise which is veiled by relief. The city coughs its dry spell in exploited ground waters and lack…
In life, shouldn't this be my goal? What can I do to make sure I wake up excited each day? How can I structure my future days to improve the probability of this happening for me and the people I care about? I won't share an answer (because I don't have one yet) but I'm confident this is a question worth asking.
I went to see Batman. The one in which Rob uses a ton of eyeliner. Enter Screen 4: The gender ratio is messed up, not a surprise. During the intermission, I got to know, not very far away there is a place where the gender ratio is much more messed up. Screen 5, The BTS Concert Live Streaming. Now, how did I feel to…
All models are wrong; some models are useful. Models are fantasies every single one of us holds in our consciousness about how the external world, in whole or in part, works. We are constantly exercising and updating these models to decide how bring reality into accordance with our desire. When things work as…
i find listening to content while working prescribes higher quality to the output. when designing for a creative output; poetry that influenced many great artists is highly productive listening. their creation influences my thinking, it forces my mind into a state of deliberation...
Breathing vast cerulean Crisp cobblestone Remembering when I visited Centuries ago I meet a young girl Full of wonder and ache The world is yours But it will also take Misguidance awaits Learning is painful Something I like to remember When things are blue I breathe and I remember A stunning place In silent November
I don't have a plan for this blog. However, every time I considered writing a new post, I procrastinated. I watched TBBT for the nth time. I started reading a new book. I binged that new song album I haven't gotten around to. I began entertaining my pets. The mix of things I do to put writing away is endless. So my…
Another favorite Hebrewism, which translates literally to "living in a movie". It is used to indicate to one's interlocutor that he is so bound up in his own narrative that he has lost contact with external reality. It's a refreshing refrain from the inanity of the counter-claim, that reality is in fact socially…
Any sufficiently developed theory that seeks to explain and predict phenomena will eventually cross the boundary from prediction to control. You don't get nuclear bombs without first developing nuclear physics. You don't get CRISPR without the study of genetics. And you definitely don't get behavioral modification…
Are you struggling with a habit? Look at your materials and tools. Your materials and tools can inspire you to show up every day. Showing up every day makes a habit. This idea works. I first noticed this with my husband's hobby. My husband is a stereo fanatic. We don't have the same tastes in music. As he perfected…
“On a gathering storm comes/A tall handsome man/In a dusty black coat with/A red right hand.” Peaky Blinders fans will know this song. It's the ballad to which the credits are set, typically with Tommy Shelby striding in slow motion through smoke and mud, peak pulled low, overcoat sweeping behind. The song was…
When I came back home, I naturally established a routine. I would wake up when my body wanted to (around 8 to 9 am), make breakfast, and study. After that, I would go out if needed or have lunch at home, then study again and go for a run (if it was a workout day). In the evening, after dinner, I would sit down with my…
Hoje uma amiga querida me deu apoio em duas situações. Uma sobre um caso que ela sabia e outro que ela não fazia ideia. O caso que ela sabia diz respeito a falar inglês. Com anos de estudo, eu consigo entender 80% do que falam, escrever bem, mas a fala ainda arrasta numa performance medíocre. Hoje, especificamente,…
Every day we would be receiving hundreds of emails and we would be responding back to them as a part of our work or in our personal capacity. But, we always make a few mistakes which do not look wrong but are more like disasters. Let's look at a few of them: 1. We send Or receive emails with an URGENT written in caps…
Earlier this week, a friend shared the official first song of his son, released in mainstream media. Very deep lyrics for an 18 year old to sing, about grief, death, the transient nature of our lives, before moving to the main theme of gratitude. Listening to it, immediately brought an inner smile to my being. I…
Must I have a title here? What if a paragraph suffices? Does this site allow for microblogging? So many questions!
When I touch my thumb and my index finger together, if feel a sensation. I can try to convey my experience to you in words. Pressure, skin, temperature, bones, soft, hard. These are just words. We love words, that's why were are here on nicheless. But in no way, you can ever know what this sensation feels like for me.…
“Acho que vocês deveriam sonhar a terra, pois ela tem coração e respira.” —- Davi Kopenawa, entrevista a F. Watson. Breu, mas o escuro não impedia a visão, a floresta trazia conforto e não medo, haviam muitas flores tropicais com os mais sedutores tons, as ciano eram leves e moviam lentamente com o vento, as de…
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…
O texto é pra lamentar que agora o Sesc 24 de maio não vende mais sorvete de iogurte but also to talk about something more deep, como minha rigidez cognitiva com algumas coisas. Eu não gosto de mudanças. Na real, não gostar é muito ameno. Eu ODEIO mudanças. E tudo está sempre mudando o tempo todo nesse mundo. Tudo…
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…
For some reason, I have been feeling like I want to do higher studies. My motivations for doing that are 3 fold: 1. I really enjoy student life and want to experience it again 2. I want to stay abroad for a couple of years to travel and experience life 3. I enjoy studying However, I need to find the right program for…
When you were a kid you thought everything is possible And why adults are always so busy as having so many excuses That’s because adults learn the bad things Never ever endulge yourself in the bad habits Find the good things Always Do the best
my original blogs have scores of posts written over the years. consolidated now on wordpress after a mid-stay at medium, it's a very haphazard collection mostly surrounding themes like, not surprisingly, human misery, love, heartbreak, and philosophy. i told a friend i am pursuing masters in philosophy and he said,…
22nd I have realised my intense need for validation for the past hurt that I have gone through. That has been further magnified because Nelson does not agree with what I say and that makes me doubt my self confidence so much. So I have been actively seeking validation. I’ve been looking for evidence backing what I…
It goes without saying that everything we do, there's reason why we do it. But recently, I'm thinking if I'm doing A, and not doing B, it's not that I have a reason to do A and no reason to do B. This assumes I've thought clearly about what to do and what not to do. But that's wrong. Maybe I haven't given it enough…
I recently listened to this Stanford podcast about the order of ideas: https://www.gsb.stanford.edu/insights/keep-em-coming-why-your-first-ideas-arent-always-best The basic gist is this: when ideating, the first thing that pops up probably isn't the best thing that you'll think about. I'm working through the idea…
it's better to spend time alone than to be bored by people. after the norwegians left, i haven't really enjoyed hanging out with other people our age because all they want to talk about is BOAT PROJECTS and i sit there thinking about how they're wasting my time and how i wish i could go read and write but when you're…
One of the biggest news right now is the deepest image of the universe pictured by NASA through the newly developed James Webb Space Telescope. The picture shows hundreds of galaxies which could not earlier be captured by Hubble, NASA’s old telescope which has been replaced by the Webb. NASA’s website says that…
Creating positive experiences to share with others is easy. Consider your smile. Everyone wants to experience something that puts a smile on their face. You control your own smile. You can also make others smile. It’s easier than you think. Make a list of what makes you smile. Here are a few things that make me smile.…
In the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, the tech industry made two inferences that broadly informed strategy: - Software is now going to eat the world at a massively increased rate - Many people now like to work remotely and have a better work/life balance The industry accepted this as a package deal: fine,…
The ultimate sin on Wikipedia is original research. You know, cranks adding lengthy conspiracy diatribes to what was a perfectly reasonable article. Banning original research is a convenient way to shut these people down. Now all you have to do is say 'where's your source?' Unluckily for us, you can fall foul of this…
Hoje é o aniversário do Ola, o meu marido. Levantei às 8h da manhã para tomarmos o café da manhã juntos e qual foi a minha surpresa ao abrir a cortina? Me deparar com um céu inteiro cor-de-rosa e um arco-íris se alongando de ponta a ponta, como se estivesse me mostrando onde está o pote de ouro que tanto tenho…
i had to name you. one year later, i finally call you what you were: an abuser. does it ever hurt, knowing that you drove a knife through me without ever stabbing me? does it ever haunt you, how i kept begging for you to stop but you were drunk on ego? do you ever get scared of the way it will all come back to you? it…
6h da manhã e ainda estou bêbada de chandon e tendo uma jornada aqui no vaso da casa de praia. Meu cunhado casou ontem e eu adoro casamentos, mesmo odiando. É de uma contradição, mas explico. Adoro pela vibe das pessoas, todo mundo se arruma e obrigatoriamente fica feliz. É bom pra rever gente legal também e dançar…
THEME: rolefulness 3 WORDS: deliberate, betweenness, fingertips Below explains the context of each. I will share about these in follow-up blog posts, for which I'll backfill the links below. --- ROLEFULNESS ... because of Professor Daiki Kato and Nicholas "Nick" Kemp on-going work. I am part of the Ikigai Tribe.…
