10 Life-Changing Lessons “The Art of War” by Sun Tzu

⚡️Book Thread⚡️

1. “Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and When you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”

We should devote a significant amount of time to planning.

But remember, without solid action, a plan is just a plan, and nothing more.

2. "There are not more than five primary colors, yet in combination, they produce more hues than can ever be seen.”

It’s not about the number of tools you have, it’s about how you use them.

3. “If he sends reinforcements everywhere, he will everywhere be weak.”

Focus is important in order to succeed.

Concentrate on key areas of improvement, and don’t try to be everything and anything at once.

4. “There is no instance of a nation benefiting from prolonged warfare.”

We shouldn't wait forever to tackle our problems

We should make progress toward our goals as soon as possible

12 Best Quotes from the Book “The Obstacle Is the Way”

⚡️Book Review⚡️

1. “Whatever we face, we have a choice: Will we be blocked by obstacles, or will we advance through and over them?”

2. “There is no good or bad without us, there is only perception. There is the event itself and the story we tell ourselves about what it means.”

3. “Focusing exclusively on what is in our power magnifies and enhances our power.”

Part2
⚡ Psychology book thread

5️⃣There are helpful love hacks to help you overcome low self-esteem and increase gratitude for your relationship.

⭕Denise Marigold, points out that people with low self-esteem tend to dismiss any compliment they may receive from their partner.

⭕So Marigold’s advice is to have the dismissive partner stop to reflect on the compliments they are given.

⭕Rather than responding with disbelief, they should ask themselves: What exactly was said? What is the deeper meaning? And why is this significant to the relationship?

⭕Another love hack that may come in handy is about increasing gratitude.

6️⃣A happy marriage requires time and attention.
Studies show that making enough time for a marriage is key to making your relationship a happy and prosperous one.

An allegory that teaches us #patience,#persistence,#hope,#habits, #Growth & Life in general.

2/6
#TheChineseBamboo
The seeds require to be nurtured with love and care for no less than 5 years without showing any results. The first 4 years solely consist of nurturing & tending with NO SIGNS OF GROWTH. But the farmer goes about his job out of habit .+

3/6
In the 5 th yr all of a sudden it begins its exponential growth & shoots to over 90ft in just 6 weeks.
Miraculous , ain't it? 🙂
The farmer tends without knowing the outcome every single day with the same amount of love & concern .He never gives up. He keeps his habit.
+

4/6
Lessons learnt
1) Fundamentals matter. Our survival & success depend on the depth of our roots .
2) One must persevere no matter what. Persistence pays off.
3)Habit or Hope?
I would say both .We need to have faith in ourselves & keep putting in our reps. #Iterations matter +

5/6
Let us plant our #dream & do all that is required for it to become a reality whilst we hope and hone our habits.

Dr. Anandibai Joshi

Upon her birth on 31 March 1865 she was named Yamuna, after the holy river. Her parents Gunputrao Amritaswar Joshee & Gungabai Joshee came from a long lineage of wealthy landlord family in Kalyan of Bombay Presidency, whose wealth was now waning.

Anandi was the sixth of 10 children, & had 4 brothers (only two of which survived) & five sisters. Her father was particularly fond of her, as she was a bright child with an inquisitive mind. Being an educated man himself, Ganpatrao assured that his daughter was taught Marathi.

As was common practice she was married at a tender age of 9, to Gopalrao Joshi, a 29 year old widower who worked as a postal clerk in the same city. After marriage her husband named her ‘Anandibai’ (which means ‘Joy of my heart’).

Gopalrao was man ahead of his times with reformist ideas & had married Anandibai on the condition that he would be allowed to educate his wife.

He even tried to enroll Anandi in a missionary school, but did not succeed. Despite being the supportive husband, Gopalrao had his flaws.

He was a strict teacher & would sometimes resort to beating if Anandi slacked in her studies.

Hinduism is a minority religion in Punjab.

During the Khalistan movement, the minority Hindus and Jains were subjected to several attacks. Hindu and Jain temples were frequently vandalized and desecrated. This thread documents a few instances.

Thread

Durgiana Mandir is one of the oldest temples of Amritsar. According to the regional Hindu tradition, the temple was built on the spot where Lava and Kusha bound Hanuman. The temple annually attracts millions of Hindus from all over the country.

Amristsar has a very ancient Hindu history.

According to the regional Hindu tradition recorded in the "Survey of Amritsar", Amritsar got its name from Amrit immersed by Lava and Kusha in a pond.

Durgiana Mandir was rebuilt in 1921.

It was used to house the Murtis of Vishnu and Durga which were thrown out from the Parikrama of Harmandir Sahib in 1905.

Because of its presence in Amritsar, it became a frequent target of radicals during the Khalistan movement.

In 1982, in what was a completely unprovoked attack, the Dal Khalsa "activists" threw a severed cow head inside Durgiana temple.

Choosing the Right JavaScript Framework

Thanks for joining me @pluralsight to talk about javascript frameworks. We had 150+ awesome questions, so I'll try to answer the ones I couldn't get to online right here in a tweet stream

Watch the video -->
https://t.co/G7zeiKhXme

Q. Do arrow functions really make dealing with JavaScript's "this" keywords easier?

A. Yes! When using arrow functions, the scope of "this" is effectively passed in from the outer scope. See here in this REPL

1/n

Q. Where does Polymer fit in? Is it considered a framework like the others?

A. @Polymer is an excellent way to create web components, which are ideal for creating sets of interactivity that can be shared in web apps.

2/n

Q. Have we gone framework crazy?

A. At one time, quite possibly. A few years back we literally had framework overload. I feel it really has solidified into a few very strong choices.

3/n

Q. [Is] there no more need for @polymer?

A. See my previous question on this ... but in general, I think there is a lot of room for Web Components with frameworks.
