14 tiny behaviours that make people instantly respect you more

- thread -

 1. Talk less.

Speaking less demonstrates comfort in one’s own skin if coupled with a relaxed demeanour and adds to your sense of mystery.
2. Be relaxed and move slow.

Quick movements and fidgeting make you appear nervous and thus lower status.
3. Hold people’s eye.

Nothing says ‘I’m confident and I am interested in other people’ than holding someone’s gaze, especially for a little longer than might feel comfortable.

👀
4. Talk boldly.

Occasionally say something that needs to be said that no one else is daring to say.

Speak your mind honestly.
5. Demonstrate emotional control.

Reactive people don’t leave space between a triggering stimulus and their emotional response.

Remain stoic.
6. Be undistracted.

How refreshing is it to see someone speaking to someone who is actively attentive?

It is becoming rare.

Instant respect.
7. Be less available.

You don't always need to be there or respond to that text instantly.

The more scarce anything is the higher its perceived value.
8. Be weird.

If there was one way to have people fall in love with you, it's to follow your weird.

Allow your quirky, fun side to come out.
9. Actually listen.

Give people the space for you to process what they say properly.

Allow a few extra seconds.

This is rare and will set you apart.
10. Dress well.

The seemingly superficial can make a huge difference.

Dress well and you will feel better and create an entirely different impression versus looking scruffy.
11. Talk a fraction slower.

Talk slower and you will calm down, elevate your perceived status, and garner respect.
12. Stop trying to impress everyone.

Pleasing people does not lead to increased respect.

Instead, be valuable and serve people when it’s appropriate.
13. Take up more space.

People respect those who aren’t afraid to take up a little extra space.
14. Give without expectation.

Most people are running around giving things to people with expectations tied to their ‘charity.’

Be different.

Grow your tribe by giving value to one person at a time.

The 8 traits of the most fearless people:

Fear and I have formed a very intimate relationship over the years.

When Valentines comes around, we even like to share gifts.

I never used to like Fear.

In fact, I believed her to be intrusive and, quite frankly, rude

But now our connection is stronger than ever.

She has taught me more than I could ever ask for.

I learned what it means to navigate the world boldly.

Here are the 8 traits of the most fearless people:

1. They use Fear as a guide.

Frightened people and fearless people use fear very differently.

Those running scared see fear as an indication of what to avoid.

Ever wonder why life seems to have given an indestructible quality to some people and not others?

Well, you're in luck.

Here are some secrets that will have you laughing at fear like a warrior hero who just sunned his balls.

1. Feel your way into uncertainty.

Most of us scaredy-cats think our way into an unknown future, take one sniff, and fuck off out of there sharpish.

Why?

Because we're in our heads, listening to our bizarre opinions about what we think might happen.

They're wrong.

Let go of these thoughts, and find a way to bring a sexy heat to your next steps.

You don't wait for confidence - you move in a way that conjures it.

Reality always moulds to the shape you've chosen.

7 outrageous tips that will save you time so you reach your goals 5x fast:

You're not alone if you seem to waste time each day, even if you're ambitious and want to get lots done.

Many of us could use some refreshing ideas on how to make the most of our time, like these:

1. Focus on your next three.

You're holding the things you think you need to get done in your head all at once.

This overwhelms you.

But it's in the mind.

In reality, all we ever have is the one thing right in front of us.

So pay attention to the delicious beauty of the present moment.

Identify your next 1-3 priorities.

Don't think them. Write the suckers down.

That's all you need to know to have a fighting chance of being one of the most productive people you and I know.

2. Make friends with boredom.

So many of us get one whiff of boredom, break into a sweat, and immediately throw on Netflix.

Then we proudly shout from the rooftops: 'I'm rarely bored! Look at me! I'm living my best life!'

Shut it, Sally.

Life can often seem relentless and exhausting.

I know what that's like.

Here are 10 timeless ideas that will instantly strengthen you:

🔆 Nothing can hurt you when you know you have nothing to protect.

Self-esteem is an illusion.

You can't damage what is made up.

You are unfathomably bigger than the idea you hold of yourself in your mind.

🔆You were already a success the day you were born.

Life is a miracle, and getting here means you already won.

Allow the time you're alive in the world to play, to create and to thrive from a position of realised strength.

🔆 Any criticism you receive may seem like an attack.

But the perpetrator is always attacking themselves.

It is always a projection rooted in personal insecurity.

It is never about you.

They are resisting their thoughts about you, not you.

A paradox is a seemingly self-contradictory statement that proves true.

The most powerful paradoxes I’ve found:

The Paradox of Failure

You have to fail more to succeed more.

Our greatest moments of growth often stem directly from our greatest moments of failure.

Don’t fear failure.

Learn to fail smart and fast—never fail the same way twice.

Always put yourself in the arena.

The Paradox of Persuasion

Ever notice that the most argumentative people rarely persuade anyone of anything?

Persuasive people don’t argue—they observe, listen, and ask questions.

Argue less, persuade more.

Persuasion is an art that requires a paintbrush, not a sledgehammer.

The Paradox of Productivity

Work longer, get less done.

Parkinson's Law says that work expands to fill the time available for its completion.

When you establish fixed hours to work, you'll find unproductive ways to fill it.

Work like a lion instead—sprint, rest, repeat.

The Paradox of Effort

You have to put in more effort to make something appear effortless.

Effortless, elegant performances are simply the result of a large volume of consistent, effortful practice.

Small things become big things.

Simple is not simple.

Don't lose today planning for tomorrow.

Don't join the pack –– Lead it.

10 Stoic principles that will immediately change your life: 🧵

On Wealth:

We all want more.

More things, more money, more prestige...

Whatever 'it' is, we never seem to have enough.

But what if we measured wealth differently?

Not by what we don't have, but by what we don't need?

True wealth is found in wanting less, not having more.


On Truth:

Too often we become set in our ways.

We believe our opinion is right, and are unwilling to consider alternate perspectives.

Have an open mind.

Be willing to change.

He who thinks he knows everything knows nothing.


On Control:

Some things we can change, some we cannot.

The secret to happiness lies in the ability to differentiate between the two.

Ask yourself:

Do I have the power to change this?

If so, get to it.

If not, move on.


On Looking Back:

Quit living in the past.

I've been guilty of this, as I'm sure you have as well.

Stop worrying about what could have been or what you should have done.

Start new. Start fresh. Start today.

What's done is done, but the future has yet to be written.

Planning for Overlord and Neptune had a serious snag, how to get troops from LSTs onto the beach as simply ramming them onto the beaches and dropping the ramp was known to damage the exceptionally vulnerable LSTs and felt to be unsustainable in the mid to long term. /2


LSTs were essential in sustaining Overlord's progress and were a subject of major headaches in the planning phase, and a real subject of friction when it came to launching additional amphibious operations such as Dragoon.

A single LSTs loss represented a capability nick. /3


So, logic dictated, we don't really want these remarkable but rare and highly valuable vessels constantly doing beach landings, we want something to act as a medium between ship to shore, and in came the (mostly) American designed Rhino. /4


I fucking love Rhinos.

Seriously.

Graceful lines of pure industrial pedigree.

Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho


There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.


Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.


Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.


The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.

SRI KANTESH HANUMANTHA, KADARAMANDALAGI (KAR)
#bharatmandir

KANTESHA means Prabhu full of brightness.
Here, Sri Hanuman appears with a front face and sparkling eyes. Earlier, the village was also called KANTESHPURI on the name of Kantesha Hanuman.


Several thousands of years ago, Hanuman lived in this village. He once saw the Sun and mistaking it to be a fruit, began flying towards it. Since then, this village came to be known as Kadara Man Dalagi. (Kadar means rays, mandala is cluster of rays).


It is believed that King Janmejaya had set up the shrine to get rid of his difficulties.
There is a small pond on the right side of the kshetram where Teppotsava (Float festival) is celebrated.

Kanaka Dasa has praised Sri Kantesha in his various poetic compositions.


Kanaka Dasa was the first devotee to popularize the power of Kantesha. It is said that once Kanaka Dasa was deeply wounded in a battle. To seek blessings, he visited Tirupati but Sri Venkatesha appeared in his dream and advised him to see Kantesha first before seeing him.

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.
