Compound effect: Why should you never underestimate the power of compounding.

Domino effect: 🁭🁯 Do you know about the domino effect? If you know about it, then we'll done if you don't then let me explain. So, in the book 'The One Thing' by Gary Keller. He mentions that " In 1983, Lorne Whitehead wrote in the American Journal of Physics that he’d discovered that domino falls could not only topple many things, but they could also topple bigger things. He described how a single domino is capable of bringing down another domino that is actually 50 per cent larger. " You won't understand the power of the domino effect by a simple definition so let me explain it to you. Consider a domino 2 inches tall. So according to the definition, a domino can bring down another domino which is 50 percent larger. So the 2-inch domino can bring down a 3-inch domino and the 3-inch domino can bring down a 4.5-inch domino.  It's a geometric progression and you will be surprised to know that the 17th domino can topple a domino almost the size of the L...

You are probably not that attractive

Skip to the conclusion part if you want only the main details. If you want to learn in-depth then read the complete blog. Photo by RODNAE Productions from Pexels The average man just wastes his time scrolling on Instagram, stalking girls, watching pointless videos on YouTube, eating junk food all day, doesn't work out, sits like a sloth all day, isn't attractive and doesn't even try to improve himself. Now after reading the above paragraph you probably thought of other people and not of yourself because you probably think you are better than the average but that's just your big fat ego telling you that you are better than average. Let me tell you something, I think most of the men after reading this passage must have probably thought of others and not of themselves. This is because just like you the majority of the people have a big ego due to which they consider themselves better than the average. Let's see if you are higher than average Consider a scal...

What type of videos should you watch on YouTube?

This seems like a stupid question but has a big impact in our lives. Many people including me watch a lot of YouTube. I am also sure you watch a lot of entertainment content in YouTube. I however want to ask you a rude question: “Do those videos help in improving your life?” The answer is no probably. So, here’s a small piece of advice from me. Next time you are on YouTube don’t binge-watch videos like a zombie. Instead, listen to some podcasts or watch longer videos like the ones which are 20–30 minute long. Why such long videos? Generally, those 20–30 minute videos will be some sort of informative video such as some course, book summaries, podcasts etc. Watching these boring long videos will improve your concentration power which was earlier fucked up by those 10-minute short entertainment videos. Also, you will gain some knowledge which is beneficial for you. YouTube knows that our attention span has decreased substantially and knows that no one watches those long videos...
