Depression is just the cowardice of not being (true to) yourself

IT WAS RISHI KANADA WHO GAVE THE ATOMIC THEORY & TALKED ABOUT THE GRAVITY OF EARTH, 2600 YEARS BEFORE AN APPLE FELL IN FRONT OF NEWTON'S EYES:

Scientists of the modern world credit an English scientist John Dalton (1766 CE -1844 CE) for the Atomic Theory.

And this is because, most of us are not even aware of an ancient Indian Sage named Kanada, who was the first to formulate the theory of atoms, almost 2600 yrs before Dalton and talk about earth's gravity.

Rishi Kanada was born around 600 BCE in Dwarka, Gujarat and he was the son of a philosopher named Ulka. He was fascinated with the minute detailing of the things right from his childhood. Once, when he was very young, he accompanied his father on a journey to Prayaga.

He saw plentiful grains scattered along the path leading to the shore of river Ganga. It's a tradition in Hindu families to scatter the grains for the ants and birds to feed on them. Suddenly, an ant caught his attention, who was feeding on a rice grain.

He was mesmerised by this very fact that how a small grain of rice becomes food for the ant but to satisfy the hunger of a person so many grains are needed together. This incidence made him realize the importance of a single grain of rice.

Mangottu Bhagavathi Temple

#keralatemples 🚩

Mangottu Bhagavathi Temple is situated in Athipotta near Alathur of palakkad district. Devi is kshipraprasadi here and grants relief to those who worship with full faith.
Mookken Chathen, situated on the Northern 👇

side of the temple, is guarding Devi here.
Story says that, once there lived a weaver named Kuttan who was a Devi Bhaktan. During one festival time Kuttan was so pleased by the Devi Vigraham that he requested her to come along with him. At that time wind blew heavily and Cloths

in Vigraham flew. Kuttan immediately decorated Devi with his cloth which stuck to Vigraham and returned to his village and with his Umbrella. Devi came with him in that Umbrella and stayed in his place. This place is Mangottu Bhagavathi temple now.

This is my son, Sam. He’s 5. And today he learned how shitty and harmful #ToxicMasculinity is. My rage meter is spiking right now so excuse me if this is a little raw but there are some things I want to say about BS #gender norms (a thread)

Sam is my middle child & he’s a terror. A “boy’s boy” as so many (not me) would say. He’s rough and tumble, he’s loud, he’s always dirty, loves trucks, plays sports and knee drops me from the couch. But he also loves a lot of “girl” things.

Sam has a collection of purses because he likes to carry things around. And he also loves to have his nails painted bright colors because he thinks they “look beautiful.” And he’s right – they are beautiful…

So he proudly wore his red nail polish to kindergarten this morning because Sam has absolutely no concept of nail polish only being for girls or reason to think anyone would possibly have a problem with beautiful nails.

But his classmates did have a problem. A big one. Sam was ridiculed for being a boy with nail polish. They called him names and told him to take it off. This lasted the entire day.

Giveaways are smashing the Twitter algo.

I've gained dozens of followers & newsletter subs.

Small accounts NEED to use them.

They drive growth, but also experience & trust.

Because a Twitter giveaway is a mini-product launch.

Steal my blueprint to create 1 in an afternoon🧵

The phases of a Twitter giveaway launch:

1. Ideate
2. Build
3. Promote
4. Deliver
5. Follow-Up

Let's break them down:

IDEATE

Grab a piece of paper and write down 3 lists:

1. Concepts you've learned in the last WEEK
2. Problems you've solved in the last MONTH
3. Questions you've been asked the most in the last YEAR

You're Twitter giveaway is somewhere on these lists...

FILTER

Combine the best from your 3 lists into 1 based on these criteria:

1. Quickly actionable
2. Easily explainable
3. Broadly relatable (beginner)

Once done, you're going to pick ONE that sings to you the most.

But don't throw out the rest. They'll be your next giveaways

BUILD

Pick 1 the easiest medium to convey your idea:

• Loom video
• Checklist (Notion)
• Written guide (Google Doc)

Give yourself ONE HOUR to script & edit your giveaway.

You get an additional 15 minutes to record, if applicable ;)
