Things don't get easier.

We get better.

THREAD: 10 principles to narrow your focus, conquer your fear, and overcome life's obstacles.

1/ Narrow your focus

Time is finite.

It is both our most valuable resource & the one we are most likely to waste.

Ask yourself:

Of the things I say are important to me, which am I willing to take immediate action toward?

Focus on these. Start today.

2/ Fear (Part 1)

A few years ago, after trying to convince the owner for months, I was given the opportunity to run a business.

One day she walked in and said:

"OK, you told me you could do it, it's yours. You start tomorrow."

I was scared to death.

I wanted out.

👇🏻

3/ Fear (Part 2)

I had exactly what I asked for, but fear was taking over.

What if I fail? People will laugh.

What if I succeed? Can I continue to meet these new expectations?

2 years later, we were the most profitable we'd ever been.

Don't let fear be a limiting force.

4/ No straight lines

Don't expect your journey to be linear.

We all map out in our minds the ideal path from where we are to where we want to be.

The secret lies in being able to roll with the punches.

Those who do great things adapt, overcome, and color outside the lines.

It's time to run your inbox––instead of it running you.

12 powerful Gmail tips every user should know: 📬

Undo Send:

Don't tell me you haven't done it.

You clicked "reply all" on a message including your boss when you meant to only reply to your friend.

Save yourself!

With Undo Send, Gmail allows you to recall a message sent in error for up to 30 seconds after you click send.


Tie emails to Tasks:

Look, we're all busy.

When your inbox is filling up faster than you can handle, it's easy to forget to reply, miss an assignment, or just plain feel overwhelmed.

Connecting emails to tasks can help.

Get reminders, add details, subtasks, and more.


Schedule Send:

With schedule send, you can draft an email at a time that works for you.

Then schedule it to be sent at a time that fits your employees' and customers' day.

In the world of remote work, this is critical.

It's a win-win.

Work on your time, send on theirs.


Confidential Mode:

Sometimes you send an email you'd prefer not live on forever.

Better yet, you'd like it if the recipient wasn't able to save, copy, or forward to someone else.

With confidential mode, you can do just that.

Set expiration dates, require passcodes, & more.

10 time-saving Excel functions you should be using: 📊

WORKDAY:

Customers need to know when the job will be done.

The Workday function allows you to easily calculate the time between your start date and a specified number of "business days" in the future.

Automatically exclude weekends & holidays of your choosing.

Like this:


3D FORMULAS:

Let's say you want to add up the values in Column 'D' on 4 different sheets & show a single total.

Quit wasting time on SUM formulas that reference each sheet individually.

3D lets you select the 1st + last sheet in a series and dynamically include any in between.


AGGREGATE:

This function returns the result of an aggregate calculation like Average, Count, Sum, Max, or Min.

What makes it special?

Aggregate performs these functions while allowing you to ignore errors, hidden rows, blanks, and more.

Here's how:


IFS FUNCTION:

The IFS function tests multiple conditions to find out if they are true based on the criteria you provide.

Here, we're going to test if our monthly sales increased, decreased, or remained static in relation to our average.

Use '$' to lock in the reference cell.

This thread will make you better at Outlook: 📬

Color code your emails:

I like to keep things organized.

I'm forgetful & I get A LOT of emails.

The easiest way I've found to ensure things don't get lost is utilizing conditional formatting.

• View -> View Settings
• Conditional Formatting
• Select type
• Name the rule


Never miss a game:

Did you know you can add custom event calendars directly in Outlook?

Never miss your favorite TV show or the next big game.

• Just head to "Add Calendar"
• Select "Sports" or "TV"
• Choose the event you'd like to add.


Send delay:

Sometimes you need to write a message now but wait to deliver it until later.

Just use "Delayed Delivery."

Here's how:

• Write your email
• Select Options -> Delay Delivery
• Choose the "Do not deliver before" time


Email your calendar:

Avoid the back and forth hassle of scheduling meetings.

Simply email your calendar so people know when you're available (and when you're not.)

You can also drag items from the received calendar to your own.

RANI GAIDINLIU:THE LESSER KNOWN FREEDOM FIGHTER

Rani Gaidinliu joined the freedom struggle at 13 &was sentenced to life imprisonment at 16."We r free people—the White should not rule over us.”Thus calling out to her Zeliangrong tribesmen was the voice of 13yr-old Rani Gaidinliu.


She joined the freedom struggle in the present-day Northeast India. Today, her struggle is lost in history as most of her countrymen wouldn’t even have heard her name. B'coz our history textbooks tell us that only Mahatma Gandhi &Pandit Nehru got India its Independence.


At 16 yrs of age, this valiant girl was sentenced to life imprisonment for leading a movement to drive out the colonial rulers from Manipur and Nagaland. Nevertheless, she was released in 1947 after India’s independence and was given the title ,"Rani of Nagas".


EARLY LIFE AND HERAKA MOVEMENT

Gaidinliu belonged to the Rongmei clan of the Zeliangrong tribe in the Tamenglong district of western Manipur. Born on January 26, 1915, she was fifth among eight children.


Her native village was Nungkao, which is present day Tamenglong distt. Brought up in a specially backward region,she couldn't receive any formal education. However,this didn't stop her from joining the freedom struggle. At the age of 10 she came under the influence of her cousin.

'Treasure Gods' - Sangha Nidhi' and 'Padma Nidhi', Tirumala, Tirupati.

------------------------------------

These are the two guards guarding the Wealth and Treasure of Lord Sri Venkateswara.

They are representatives of two treasures of Kubera, the God of Wealth.


One guard who is holding shangam (conch) on both the hands is known as Shanka Nidhi ('nidhi' means wealth).

On the other side, the guard who is holding Lotus flowers on both the hands is known as Padma nidhi.

Shangu is from the ocean which includes all types of wealth like pearls and corals.

Why shagam in his hand? Because shangam only gives the sound of 'omkaram'.

'Padmam' is the symbol of water sources in land like river, lakes, tanks etc. which is very important for all living beings.

As per the tradition, these guards are installed at the third entrance of the temple.

One enters the holy shrine after saluting the first protection threshold - Sankha Nidhi and Padma Nidhi.

Again sharing bank nifty intraday weekly straddle. How to play by selling straddle.
Mostly will work on Monday to Wednesday. Sometimes on Friday.
Why to pay your money to learn this if u can get it here.
U need only practice.
Let’s go.

Say bank nifty future is at 32000.
Sell both 32000 call and put.
Considering current volatile market lest say premium on Monday morning is 350 on both sides.
Sold with 700 points combine premium.
If bank nifty will trade in narrow range say +\- 100 hold it.
If moving 200 points

then exit previous sold straddle. Sell new one. Let’s say BN moved +200
Now sell 32200. If bank nifty will move here within range then u will get profit through theta decay. Follow same procedure for next 150-200 pts move.

This is only for single straddle sell position.

Now in second case sell three straddle. 31900/32000/32100
In case of 100 points move no need to change.
If 200 + then future is 32200.
Exit 31900 and sell 31200 straddle.
If moving another 100 then exit 32000 and sell 32300. Continue same with 100 points move.
If no move then

it will consolidate between 32000-32200 or 32100 to 32300 and u will get theta decay.

This is for normal move. Sudden big move may come anytime. So keep SL in system.
If u r selling at 350-350 then keep SL in system 475 for both legs.
Practice it. No need to attend webinar.

The best morning routine?

Starts the night before.

9 evening habits that make all the difference:

1. Write down tomorrow's 3:3:3 plan

• 3 hours on your most important project
• 3 shorter tasks
• 3 maintenance activities

Defining a "productive day" is crucial.

Or else you'll never be at peace (even with excellent output).

Learn more


2. End the workday with a shutdown ritual

Create a short shutdown ritual (hat-tip to Cal Newport). Close your laptop, plug in the charger, spend 2 minutes tidying your desk. Then say, "shutdown."

Separating your life and work is key.

3. Journal 1 beautiful life moment

Delicious tacos, presentation you crushed, a moment of inner peace. Write it down.

Gratitude programs a mindset of abundance.

4. Lay out clothes

Get exercise clothes ready for tomorrow. Upon waking up, jump rope for 2 mins. It will activate your mind + body.

#ஆதித்தியஹ்ருதயம் ஸ்தோத்திரம்
இது சூரிய குலத்தில் உதித்த இராமபிரானுக்கு தமிழ் முனிவர் அகத்தியர் உபதேசித்ததாக வால்மீகி இராமாயணத்தில் வருகிறது. ஆதித்ய ஹ்ருதயத்தைத் தினமும் ஓதினால் பெரும் பயன் பெறலாம் என மகான்களும் ஞானிகளும் காலம் காலமாகக் கூறி வருகின்றனர். ராம-ராவண யுத்தத்தை


தேவர்களுடன் சேர்ந்து பார்க்க வந்திருந்த அகத்தியர், அப்போது போரினால் களைத்து, கவலையுடன் காணப்பட்ட ராமபிரானை அணுகி, மனிதர்களிலேயே சிறந்தவனான ராமா போரில் எந்த மந்திரத்தைப் பாராயணம் செய்தால் எல்லா பகைவர்களையும் வெல்ல முடியுமோ அந்த ரகசிய மந்திரத்தை, வேதத்தில் சொல்லப்பட்டுள்ளதை உனக்கு

நான் உபதேசிக்கிறேன், கேள் என்று கூறி உபதேசித்தார். முதல் இரு சுலோகங்கள் சூழ்நிலையை விவரிக்கின்றன. மூன்றாவது சுலோகம் அகத்தியர் இராமபிரானை விளித்துக் கூறுவதாக அமைந்திருக்கிறது. நான்காவது சுலோகம் முதல் முப்பதாம் சுலோகம் வரை ஆதித்ய ஹ்ருதயம் என்னும் நூல். முப்பத்தி ஒன்றாம் சுலோகம்

இந்தத் துதியால் மகிழ்ந்த சூரியன் இராமனை வாழ்த்துவதைக் கூறுவதாக அமைந்திருக்கிறது.
ஐந்தாவது ஸ்லோகம்:
ஸர்வ மங்கள் மாங்கல்யம் ஸர்வ பாப ப்ரநாசனம்
சிந்தா சோக ப்ரசமனம் ஆயுர் வர்த்தனம் உத்தமம்
பொருள்: இந்த அதித்ய ஹ்ருதயம் என்ற துதி மங்களங்களில் சிறந்தது, பாவங்களையும் கவலைகளையும்


குழப்பங்களையும் நீக்குவது, வாழ்நாளை நீட்டிப்பது, மிகவும் சிறந்தது. இதயத்தில் வசிக்கும் பகவானுடைய அனுக்ரகத்தை அளிப்பதாகும்.
முழு ஸ்லோக லிங்க் பொருளுடன் இங்கே உள்ளது https://t.co/Q3qm1TfPmk

GHATI SUBRAMANYA, DODDABALLAPURA (KAR)
#bharatmandir

One of the most important place for snake worship.
The murtis of Kartikeya and Narasimha are self-manifested.
There is an anthill which is opposite the shrine. Bhaktas pour milk on it as part of rituals.


Here Subramanya performed penance in the form of snake. He sought protection from Narsimha for Nagas from Sri Vishnu’s vehicle Garuda, known for his dislike towards serpents.
The Pushya Suddha Shasti is one of the biggest festivals here believed to be appearance day of Subramanya


It was in this region where Subramanya vanquished Ghatikasura, the demon. Hence called Ghati Subramanya.
Childless couples visit here to seek blessings for getting a child.
The installation of snake murtis near the shrine is believed to be an auspicious act.


The murti of Karthikeya with a seven headed cobra faces eastwards while Narasimha faces westwards.
To ensure that both are visible to bhaktas at the same time, a huge mirror is placed in the rear in the sanctum sanctorum.

STORY OF PURANAS AND SUB PURANA (उप पुराण).

We have already gone through the series on importance & characteristics of all the eighteen Purans. We also know that originally there were hundred crore shlokas but were divided by Vyas in each Kalp and was compiled as eighteen Purans


for the common people to understand it properly and now their total is about four lakhs.

In Brahm Puran, Brahma preached this to Marichi. So this Puran of ten thousand shlokas is called Brahm Puran.

In Padma Puran, the base of the story is the appearance of Brahma on a lotus(Padm) from Vishnu' s navel.This has fifty five thousand shlokas.

Vishnu Puran is primarily based in Varah kalp. This book is on Vishnu and this book has twenty three thousand shlokas.

Vaayu Puran is written in Shwet Kalp and has twenty four thousand shlokas. Here Vayudev preaches about Dharma.

In Bhagwat Puran, which is written with the base of Gayatri mantra describes Dharma extensively. It has 18000 shlokas. It also mentions the story of Vritrasur.

In Narad Puran, which has twenty five thousand shlokas, is a sermon on Dharma by Narad based in Brihad Kalp.

Markandeya Puran has nine thousand shlokas and here it is through the birds that Dharma is described.
