10 Top Lessons From "The Dip"
✍️A book by @ThisIsSethsBlog

📚Book Summary (THREAD)

1. Be the Best

🥇Anyone who is going to hire you, buy from you, or do what you want them to do is going to wonder if you’re the BEST choice.

BEST: Best for them, right now, based on what they believe and what they know

THE WORLD: Their world, the world they have access to

2 . Quitting Is Not Failure

If you are not going to be the best, then you should just QUIT.

Quitting, in some scenarios, is actually essential for freeing up resources to get through the dips that matter.

This means you only have two options in life:
Quit or be Exceptional.

To become the best, you must understand these three curves:

3. The Cul De Sac:

1️⃣This first curve is where you work and work and work… but nothing changes. It doesn’t get a lot better; it doesn’t get a lot worse… it just is what it is.

Whenever you find one of these...

...you need to get off it fast.

The opportunity cost of investing your life in something that’s not going to get better is just too high.

"Super Coach"

📚#DDBook Thread🧵

1. We think we are experiencing reality but what we are really experiencing is our thinking.

2. The most important choice you make is what you choose to make important.

3. If we really want something, there is always a way.

4. What we decide is less important then how we respond to life.

6. Every emotion we feel is a response to a thought, not an event.

7. Your day doesn’t create your mood, your mood creates your day.

8. When you feel a sense of urgency, it’s usually a better idea to slow down.

9. No Matter what seems to be going on, you don’t have to do anything. Being overwhelmed is just a thought.

10. Everything we do or don’t do is simply a choice. To do more, use a system of clarity, structure and boldness of action.

Was reading upon #Biases & learnt a lot. Thought of sharing a few pointers .
Simply put Bias is a disproportionate weight in favour of or against any idea/thing in all aspects of life.
Few types of Biases ( out of the many) with not so random images. :)

2/16
The #DunningKruger effect now is fairly well known , wherein people with limited knowledge overestimate their competence, whilst the actually knowledgeable question themselves often .
"Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge".

*#SelfServingBias*
A very interesting bias wherein we credit our successes to purely ourselves, but when things go awry we cite luck & external forces .
Rings any bells?
Basically a defence mechanism to protect our self esteem & eventually from personal responsibility.

4/16
* #ConfirmationBias *
We all favour ideas & beliefs that affirm to our existing ones' , rarely being open to contradictory opinions .
(Especially in markets !! 😬) Why?

Laziness? Mental block? Ego ?
No wonder, Birds of a feather flock together ... 😉

5/16
* #SunkCostBias *
As we know, sunk costs are irrecoverable , regardless of outcomes. (Eg Money expended towards R&D for a molecule which doesn't work out)
But this actually extends in any investment we make - Time,Money, Effort, Relationships ...😏
Interesting right?
