8 Practical Idea🔧 from "The All-or-Nothing Marriage" /Part 1
⚡️Psychology Book Review

1⃣ The attitudes of men and women have significantly changed when it comes to marriage.

⭕️for modern women, it’s paramount that relationships not hinder personal freedom and growth.

⭕️As for the modern man, we can also see signs of how there is less willingness to compromise in a marriage.

2⃣ Marriage and personal fulfillment aren’t mutually exclusive, but commitment may involve some self-delusion.

⭕️marriage and personal fulfillment can, and do, coexist.

⭕️Since a marriage is a partnership, it contains a built-in support system, where each person can encourage and help the other in their own quest for self-growth and fulfillment.

⭕️In 2004, psychologist C.E. Rusbult led a study that sorted people into two groups: highly-committed partners and not-so-committed partners.

⭕️Since this was considered objectively impossible, the results seem to show that people in committed relationships can delude themselves into seeing others as unattractive in order to stay committed to their own partners.

3⃣ Today’s marriages come with different expectations than those of previous generations.

⭕️The famous psychologist,Abraham Maslow, had an influential idea about the hierarchy of human needs,and it showed how people’s basic expectations rose as society became more sophisticated

⭕️Since it’s now easier for a single person to get by on her own, marriage is expected to provide more than just children and greater financial stability – there should be romance and support for each partner’s dreams, too.

⭕️This means that marriages today tend to be quite binary in nature: it’s all or nothing.

4⃣ Compatibility comes with effort and recognizing ideal qualities in your partner.

⭕️A lot of today’s dating sites emphasize the importance of two people having the same tastes and hobbies, but this isn’t necessarily the most important thing for compatibility.

⭕️Another relatively common phenomenon in marriage is idealizing your partner.

10 Key Lessons From the Book “Black Swan” By: Nassim Taleb

⚡️Book Review⚡️

1. Don’t chase black swans, instead, let them permeate your life.

👉You can do this by experimenting, cultivating serendipity,

🚫not taking bell curves too seriously, and investing in lots of small outlier but high-risk opportunities.

2. Black swan events Key attributes:

- Extremely impactful
- Are outlier events
- Are retrospectively predictable, not prospectively predictable

🚫Try to avoid situations that can fool you in a huge way, and avoid depending on huge, and potentially harmful predictions.

3. Randomness mainly comes from lack of knowledge

Surviving until tomorrow could mean that you’re either more likely to be immortal, or closer to death.

👉Both of these conclusions are based on the same exact data.

4. Unknowns are more important than the knowns

👉We can master things in one field and fail to transfer the same to another.

Everyone has their own limitations when it comes to learning from experience or observation.

MY TAKEAWAYS FROM ATOMIC HABITS by @JamesClear

A spectacular book that focuses on building HABITS following SYSTEMS to achieve RESULTS - Instead of the traditional GOAL BASED approach.

It's a highly engaging read with plenty of practical examples .

#BookRecommendation

2/20
Your OUTCOMES are a lagging measure of your HABITS . Although difficult to appreciate on a daily basis , they MATTER IMMENSELY.
Change your habit ,to change the outcome.

It doesn't matter WHERE you are currently,
CHANGE YOUR HABIT TO CHANGE THE TRAJECTORY OF YOUR LIFE!👇

3/20
You do not RISE to the level of your GOALS .You FALL to the level of your SYSTEMS .

Why so ?

Both WINNERS & LOSERS have a Goal . What then sets them apart ?

It's having a SYSTEM in place.
Systems are forever & they result in continuous SELF IMPROVEMENT .

4/20
Reaching a goal may give rise to emptiness or targetting another goal.
But that isn't the case for systems.

Hence GOALS - OVER RATED SYSTEMS - UNDER RATED

2 small examples on my system based approach for self improvement.

5/20
Your identity emerges out of your habits. Every action is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.

Despite knowing better we find that
changing our habits is challenging because :
1) We try to change the wrong thing
2) We try to change our habits in the wrong way.

" Zen and the Art of Happiness "

It's a simple book but it makes you think .

Few of my takeaways ( with random 2 min doodles).
👇
Firstly,
What is Zen ?

#Zen is a Japanese word that is derived from the Sanskrit word Dhyana meaning "Meditation" .

2/21
Zen is a journey of exploration & a way of living that , in and of itself doesn't belong to any one religion or tradition as such.

Zen doesn't teach. It merely
points, enabling us to wake up & become aware.

Ever noticed how zen stories rarely have predefined morals? 🤓

3/21

The zen of doing anything is doing it with a concentration of mind , a calmness & simplicity of mind, that brings the experience of enlightenment and, through that experience , happiness.

It could be something as mundane as sweeping or peeling potatoes !

#mindfulness

4/21

We are the authors of every NEXT moment.

Therefore the best way for us to get that new experience is to CHANGE our response to what happens.

By natural cause & effect , that NEW RESPONSE will create NEW RESULTS , thereby a NEW REALITY.

Try it to believe it !
#Wisdom

5/21

Unknown to most of us , we all have a life philosophy . A perspective of looking at things , at events & circumstances that befall us.

Our personal #Philosophy determines how we respond to events that occur in our life .
This ultimately is responsible for our happiness.

#3/thread on Angkor wat

Christianity and islam may be the largest religion of today’s world but Sanatan dharm has the largest religious monument in the world in the form of Angkor wat. It is situated in combodia and spread across over 400 acres / 1.6 km².

It was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992, which encouraged an international effort to save the complex.
It was originally built as a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Vishnu. In Khmer, the Cambodian language, Angkor means "city" and Wat means "temple grounds".

So Angkor Wat means "Temple City". Its original name was Vrah Vishnuloka or Parama Vishnuloka, meaning the sacred dwelling of Vishnu in Sanskrit.
But, it gradually turned into a Buddhist temple towards the end of the 12th century & is still used for worship today.

Angkor Wat was initially designed and constructed in the first half of the 12th century, during the reign of Suryavarman II, as the king’s state temple and capital city. It was built without the aid of any machinery, as there was no machinery available at that time.

Evidence for these dates comes in part from inscriptions, which are vague, but also from the architectural design and artistic style of the temple and its associated sculptures.

Another aspect is that the five central towers of Angkor Wat symbolize the peaks of Mount Meru,

The YouTube algorithm that I helped build in 2011 still recommends the flat earth theory by the *hundreds of millions*. This investigation by @RawStory shows some of the real-life consequences of this badly designed AI.

One thing that goes unremarked about Wikipedia: the vast majority of the content was written over 12 years ago—which means (given turnover) that the editors dominant today were not directly involved in that creation.

Put another way, the editors who built the dominant nodes in this network...

...have little overlap with the ones who made this much more recent managerial flowchart.

Internet time runs at hundred-fold speed—the difference between the people who painted what's in the Uffizi, and the people in charge of keeping those paintings from deteriorating. Very different tasks, and (one presumes) very personalities as well. @PaulSkallas?

I think a plausible explanation is that whatever Corbyn says or does, his critics will denounce - no matter how much hypocrisy it necessitates.

One of the oddest features of the Labour tax row is how raising allowances, which the media allowed the LDs to describe as progressive (in spite of evidence to contrary) through the coalition years, is now seen by everyone as very right wing

Corbyn opposes the exploitation of foreign sweatshop-workers - Labour MPs complain he's like Nigel

He speaks up in defence of migrants - Labour MPs whinge that he's not listening to the public's very real concerns about immigration:

He's wrong to prioritise Labour Party members over the public:

He's wrong to prioritise the public over Labour Party
