This has taken me 27 years to learn but I'll teach you in 2 minutes. Here are 13 brutal truths to understand before you trust anyone...

1. You’ll get screwed most by the people you trust.

2. People don't care whether you succeed or fail unless they have something to gain or lose.

3. Stop telling people about your problems. 99% of them are happy you're suffering.

4. Choosing yourself is not selfish. You can't love anyone without loving yourself first.

5. The only way to enjoy being with others is spending time alone first.

6. You can always be replaced. Your position in anyone's life depends on your usefulness.

7. Tell people only what they should know. Envy forms 90% of relationships.

8. Trust is a product of your actions. Be trustworthy and others will trust you.

9. Avoid people who tell you about others. They'll snitch you when it's important.

10. Anyone can betray you. They only need "a good enough reason"

11. Lower your expectations on the people you meet. People do what makes them happy.

12. In all your relationships it's not about you, it's about them.

13. Never trust too easy. People will use you to fulfil their fantasies.

It's feel good day.

I trust you to trust yourself this weekend...

You don't need a $100,000 MBA

Here are 9 valuable lessons that took me 5 years to learn.

( 3 minutes read )

1. Quit thinking too much on the product to sell

Think of;
• A customer you can serve
• A problem you can help them solve

These are the two basics needed.

2. Connect with your customers quite often.

• Read reviews
• Have a customer service chat
• Give them phone calls

Find out how they feel and think.

This is the foundation of effective marketing and product design.

3. Avoid desperate sales.

Trying to get them to buy something, will make them rebellious.

Train yourself to think, speak, and act with abundance.

4. Networking makes the strongest pillar in any business

• Have an asset people want
• Have a skill most people don't have

Cultivate one and making connections will be 10x easier.

Parents, teach your sons these 9 skills and set them 10 years ahead of 99% of their peers...

1. How to clean and organize their space

A clean and organized man is focused.

A disorganized man is a turn off.

Teach them how to;

• Make their beds
• Clean their rooms
• Stay clean and neat

It's attractive.

2. How to cook

A man who knows several recipes is attractive.

There's also no reason they should marry young because they can't cook.

3. How to dance

Men dance, but not twerking on tiktok, Instagram and snapchat.

If you can't, send them to a dance class.

The world has enough soy already.

Raise a strong son who can dance with his wife.

4. How to talk to girls

You can't teach him how to be a man.

But dealing with women is just as important as being a man.

He ought to know;

- When to talk
- What to say
- How to

You'll give him an unfair advantage over his peers.

Build friendships with assets not liabilities.

You never know who might come your way and turn your life around.

Know who to talk to, when, how to talk.

You'll always win.

Learn how to fight for yourself and yours.

You'll also learn the fights to get involved in.

From age 20-49, do these mistakes and never regret...

1. Spend 70% of your time alone

Life is not all about honey, butter and bread.

You'll become a weakling the more you spend time with people.

Do this instead;

• Spend time alone
• Work on yourself
• Guard your energy

2. Move from parents

Don't abandon them but if you want to be self-sufficient,

(Especially in a society without elaborate lites of passage to strengthen you)

Then you should move and build your safety nets.

There are moments when family can't help you.

3. Go against common beliefs

Common is comfortable and it's considered easy.

99% of the times it'll never serve you.

Question what there is and know what works for you.

4. Quit taking medicine

Unless it's a life threatening illness or some necessary antibiotics.

You can stay healthy with;

• The right diet
• Exercise
• Water
• Work
• Sun
• Sex

You don't always need medicine.

In 2 minutes, I'll show you 11 pillars that'll help you succeed in life at any age. (Cutting through the noise)

1. Accept success won't come at once

Not even witchcraft can help in this.

Success cannot be attained quickly.

Even if you pour all the hard work and dedication,

You won't achieve all goals right away.

Be patient and expect it to take longer to achieve your goals.

2. Focus on what matters

Focus on what is essential to you and your goals.

Block out distracting;

• Information
• Opinions
• Ideas

Always ask in the course of the day,

"Is whatever I'm doing important to me and my goals?"

3. Build a strong foundation

Instead of rushing for the outcomes

Focus on building a strong foundation,

Especially if your goals are big and beyond your current level.

4. Cultivate your curiosities

Not only is curiosity key to the learning process, but it's great for overall life satisfaction.

Curious people;

• Connect better
• Enjoy socializing more
• Have better relationships

Other people are attracted to curious individuals.

ANCIENT BHARAT WAS CALLED VISHWAGURU, AND IT REALLY DESERVED IT.

India had a well developed education system centuries before the westerners arrived and called us uncivilized. Education was always given a great importance in Indian civilisation since times immemorial.

Ancient India had the Gurukulas and Ashramas as the epicentres of the knowledge and enlightenment. Bigger Gurukulas served as the centres of higher education called universities. Besides these universities, temples also emerged as the major learning centres.

Studying the Holy Scriptures, character building, personality development, responsibilities towards self,family and society,discipline and preservation of the ancient culture and heritage were the key embodiments of education.

This kind of education system made ancient India, a centre of knowledge all over the world. Many foreign students came to India for education and India was called the 'Vishwaguru'.
Takshshila and Nalanda were the two prominent universities of ancient India.

But were these only Universities of ancient India?The answer is 'No'.Let's learn about these gems of our education system that flourished across ancient India & be proud.

NALANDA UNIVERSITY
This was the oldest university of ancient India.Situated in Nalanda distt. of Bihar...

RANI NAIKI DEVI AND THE BATTLE OF KASAHRADA

Mohammad Ghori, the young Ghurid Prince conquered Ghaznavids in Afghanistan in the year 1173 CE. He conducted some successful raids into the Indian territory, which even Mahmud Ghazni & the Persians couldn't do.

First&foremost,Ghori invaded states of Multan &Uch in India.After this he turned to southern states of Gujarat &Rajputana.Everybody knows this about Ghori,but what most pple r unaware of is the defeat he suffered at hands of Chalukyan Queen Naiki Devi in 1178 Battle of Kasahrada.

When he marched southwards, his first target was the prosperous fortified town of Anhilwara Patan.
It was the capital of Chalukyas(also known as Solankis of Gujarat) which was established by Vanraj of Chapotkata Dynasty in 8th century.

American historian Tertius Chandler states that it was the 10th largest city in the world at that time. The history of Chalukyas has been written by many historians, but the valour of the Great Queen Naiki Devi remains unsung.

Born to the Kadamba King Paramardin of Goa,Naiki Devi was well trained in sword fighting, horse riding, strategy & every other subject of Statesmanship. She was married to King Ajaypala of Gujarat who sat on throne in 1171CE. Unfortunately,the King died within 4 yrs of his rule.

Great article from @AsheSchow. I lived thru the 'Satanic Panic' of the 1980's/early 1990's asking myself "Has eveyrbody lost their GODDAMN MINDS?!"

For three years I have wanted to write an article on moral panics. I have collected anecdotes and similarities between today\u2019s moral panic and those of the past - particularly the Satanic Panic of the 80s.

This is my finished product: https://t.co/otcM1uuUDk

The 3 big things that made the 1980's/early 1990's surreal for me.

1) Satanic Panic - satanism in the day cares ahhhh!

2) "Repressed memory" syndrome

3) Facilitated Communication [FC]

All 3 led to massive abuse.

"Therapists" -and I use the term to describe these quacks loosely - would hypnotize people & convince they they were 'reliving' past memories of Mom & Dad killing babies in Satanic rituals in the basement while they were growing up.

Other 'therapists' would badger kids until they invented stories about watching alligators eat babies dropped into a lake from a hot air balloon. Kids would deny anything happened for hours until the therapist 'broke through' and 'found' the 'truth'.

FC was a movement that started with the claim severely handicapped individuals were able to 'type' legible sentences & communicate if a 'helper' guided their hands over a keyboard.

So I was talking to @gewt about Job: A Comedy of Justice and I came up with a theory that I think explains why Heinlein's late-period work is so kinda-terrible and why I still enjoy it so much

So Heinlein had always been very interesting in the short parts of his novels, like the little snippets inside chapters. He had a very fun writing style, and wrote some fun dialogue with fun characters, right?>
It probably comes from how much of his early stuff was short fiction

And I think what happened with a lot of his longer works is that he'd just start writing fun bits and hope it would end up going somewhere or having a bigger plot by the end. like eventually he'd figure out where this was going, then go back and rewrite it into a cohesive whole

and I'm sure he had editors that'd help this process. No editor would let you publish something as rambly and changing-gears-every-other-chapter as The Number Of The Beast, for example... unless you were God-King Of Science Fiction 1980s Robert Heinlein.

so basically I think what happened is that by the 80s (when he was in his seventies!!) he lost the drive to go back and rewrite and he was too Untouchable for editors to make him.

I've spoken to 1,500+ people about remote work in the last 9 months

A few predictions of what is likely to emerge before 2030

[ a thread ] 💻🏠🌍

🚜 Rural Living: World-class people will move to smaller cities, have a lower cost of living & higher quality of life

These regions must innovate quickly to attract that wealth. Better schools, faster internet connections are a must

⏰Asynchronous Work: Offices are instantaneous gratification distraction factories where synchronous work makes it impossible to get stuff done

Tools that enable asynchronous work are the most important thing globally remote teams need. A lot of startups will try to tackle this

⚽️Hobbie Renaissance: Remote working will lead to a rise in people participating in hobbies and activities which link them to people in their local community

This will lead to deeper, more meaningful relationships which overcome societal issues of loneliness and issolation

🌍Diversity & Inclusion: The most diverse and inclusive teams in history will emerge rapidly

Companies who embrace it have a first-mover advantage to attract great talent globally. Companies who don't will lose their best people to their biggest competitors

Have you ever wondered why the sons and daughters of the colonial chiefs and guards who were collaborators live a good life while those of the MAU MAU fighters live in abject poverty?

***THREAD***

It should be known that the colonialists reached a point that they knew they had 2 leave Kenya since they couldn't handle the Mau Mau war & the world was moving toward accepting independent Africa.However,the colonialists devised an evil scheme that still eats Kenya upto this day

Under this scheme, the colonial state came up with a plan that saw the first crop of chiefly “big men” being empowered financially to take their children to schools and eventually have those children go to England for further studies...

...and eventually providing a ready-made socio-economic & political class whom state power could be entrusted in the post-colonial era.This explains why their children & grandchildren still hold majority of important positions in govt or in the private sector supported by state.

This also explains why children and grandchildren of these homeguards are always given preferential treatment when it comes to government appointments. Wewe na masomo yako you are always asking why you can never get a job in government...yet you're qualified..now you know.

MUST READ TILL END:
FB POST BY MR PRABEER BASU,
IAS-1976(BIHAR)
" Received a hurtful post from an old friend and colleague. He was on my daily Broadcast list of WhatsApp. He requested that I do not send him any of my posts on 'political' issues. I gave him a long explaination
>2

2/29
on why I write and what I write. But he was not convinced.

Being alerted by him thus, I felt I should clarify to all who read my posts on what exactly I think and do.

The charge against me is that I wrongly support our current Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi..
>3

3/29
and that it establishes I am not rational and impartial anymore.
Let me try and explain.First and foremost,I do not write on 'political' issues. I write on 'national' issues. For example, I have no opinion on whether Rahul Gandhi should be President of his party or not.
>4

4/29

Similarly, I have no views whether BJP is a better party than Congress or vice versa.
Even after 36 years in the IAS I have no MLA, MP or anyone involved in politics whom I can classify as my friend or even acquaintance.
>5

5/29
So, naturally I don't care which party wins or loses as long as the winning party runs an honest government doing good to my nation.
Now, why I speak in favour of Shri Modi:

1. Ever since the beginning of my service I realised that Planning Commission was not serving..
