Pair with action; knowledge without embodiment is useless

THREAD //

1. Atomic Habits, @JamesClear

“Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.

No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your identity.”

2. The Daily Stoic, @RyanHoliday

“Never be so tied to your former acquaintances and friends that you are pulled down to their level.

You must choose to be loved by these friends and remain the same person or become a better person at the cost of those friends”

3. Navalmanack, @naval

“Seek wealth, not money or status.

Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep.

Money is how we transfer time and wealth.

You will never get wealthy renting out your time.”

4. Turning Pro, @SPressfield

“Fear is the primary color of the amateur.

Fear of failure. Fear of success. Fear of looking foolish. Fear of underachieving.

The amateur fears that if he turns pro and lives out his calling, he will have to live up to who he really is.”

10 Insightful Lessons From the Book “Ego is the Enemy”

⚡️Book Review⚡️


1: Your worst enemy lives in you

It is true that all of us, with no exemption, harbors a certain level of pride and ego.

Since pride is in us, it is either we feed it or starve it.

👉How you deal with your pride makes the big difference.

2: Manage your pride

As soon as you feel you are becoming egoistic, boastful, and proud – you can tell yourself to stop.

👉Instead of directing people’s attention to you, choose to direct attention to others.

3: Pride tells you to talk, humility tells you to listen

Ego encourages you to lift yourself and base your worth on nothing or false worth.

On the other hand, humility tells you how important it is to listen to people.

👉So, we listen twice as much as we talk.

4: Become a student

Ego tells you not to listen to anyone. As a result, you stop learning. You stop growing.

So, if you want to keep on learning, learn to be humble first.

✅That’s how you become Great.

15 quotes to hit your ego from the book EGO IS THE ENEMY:


1. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, your worst enemy already lives inside you; your ego.

2. The ego we see most commonly goes by a more casual definition: an unhealthy belief in our own importance. Arrogance. Self-centered ambition.

3. Ego is when the notion of ourselves and the world grows so inflated that it begins to distort the reality that surrounds us.

4. We will learn that though we think big, we must act and live small in order to accomplish what we seek.

Stan Lee’s fictional superheroes lived in the real New York. Here’s where they lived, and why. https://t.co/oV1IGGN8R6


Stan Lee, who died Monday at 95, was born in Manhattan and graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. His pulp-fiction heroes have come to define much of popular culture in the early 21st century.

Tying Marvel’s stable of pulp-fiction heroes to a real place — New York — served a counterbalance to the sometimes gravity-challenged action and the improbability of the stories. That was just what Stan Lee wanted. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i


The New York universe hooked readers. And the artists drew what they were familiar with, which made the Marvel universe authentic-looking, down to the water towers atop many of the buildings. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i


The Avengers Mansion was a Beaux-Arts palace. Fans know it as 890 Fifth Avenue. The Frick Collection, which now occupies the place, uses the address of the front door: 1 East 70th Street.

They have always maintained friendly relations with the rulers. The Mughal court and the Rana of Amarkot had special respect because Emperor Akbar was born in the shelter of Amarkot Raj. They did not even have to attend court regularly.

Dara Shikohar provided Rana supplies to Amarkot during his expedition to Kandahar.
But another reason why the name of this Amarkot is inextricably linked with the history of the subcontinent is the partition of the country.
