25 sentences that will 10x your productivity:

The quality of your sleep, exercise, and diet will determine your energy levels.

Write down your top 3 priorities every day.

If it takes less than 2 minutes—do it now.

Turn off all non-emergency notifications.

4 hours of deep work > 8 hours of distracted work

Only ever compare yourself to who you were yesterday.

Do a few things well, not as many things as possible.

If you don't plan your time, someone else will.

Review your goals weekly, if not daily.

1% improvement every day for a year = 37 times better

Make "Do Not Disturb" mode your default.

If it's not a "hell yes"—it's a no.

Meditate in bed—either you get a good meditation, or you fall asleep.

For every one hour of learning, spend an hour applying.

The longer you put off a task—the harder it becomes.

If you want to burn out—don't take breaks.

Trade instant gratification for long-term fulfillment.

You'll never regret taking a walk outside.

Plan time to "do nothing"—it's good for your brain.

Be selfish with your time and generous with your love.

Avoid multitasking at all costs.

Carefully curate your information diet.

Sleep is the most important productivity hack.

If you're procrastinating on something—just do it for 2 minutes.

The most important thing you could be doing is not on your phone.

That's a wrap!

Do these 5 things after 7PM.

And your life will never be the same:

1. Reflect

Ask these 3 simple questions:

1. What happened today that I'm grateful for?
2. Which actions moved me towards my goals?
3. Are there any changes I can make?

I love these questions because they strike a balance between gratitude and self-improvement.

2. Disconnect

Imagine trying to park a car that's going 70MPH.

That's essentially what you're doing when you hammer your brain with work/TikTok videos right before bed.

Toss your phone.
Get off the computer.
Slow down the car.

3. Set a plan

A productive day starts the night before.

The simple act of writing down your 3 biggest to-do list items can create a ton of momentum for the day ahead.

(h/t: @quotedvisually)

4. Stretch/Breathe

Cheating a bit with a 2 for 1 here.

So far we've focused on the mind—but what about the body?

Light stretching/deep breathing is an amazing way to release the tension of a busy work day.

Trust me.
10 years from now your body will thank you.

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has sold more than 40 million copies.

Don't have time to read it?
—No worries.

Here are the 7 key lessons you should apply:

Habit #1 — BE PROACTIVE

It all starts with action.

Rather than being "reactive" (externally influenced).
Focus on being "proactive" (initiative-taking).

This puts you in firm control of your life.

Habit #2 — BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND

"No wind is favorable if one does not know to which port one is sailing."

I use this goal-setting system to stay on track myself:

Who do I want to be --> Monthly goal to achieve it? --> Daily action to reach that goal?

I update weekly.

Habit #3 — FIRST THINGS FIRST

Knowing the work that moves the needle is half the battle.

The Eisenhower Matrix can come in handy here:

Urgent + Important - Do it
Important + Not urgent - Schedule it
Urgent + Not important - Delegate it
Not urgent + Not important - Delete it

Habit #4 — THINK WIN-WIN

Always strive to find a mutually beneficial solution.

How to:
- Be as objective as possible
- Try to see from their perspective
- Determine what a "win" truly means for both parties
- Work to find the best solution for both parties

13 lessons from the world's longest study of happiness:

85 years.

That's how long The Harvard Study of Adult Development has been running.

Directed by Dr. Robert Waldinger.

The study has helped provide priceless insights into human happiness:

#1. The key to a healthy and fulfilling life is quality relationships

Not wealth, not fame.

—Relationships.

It's not the only thing that matters, but time and time again this proved to be the biggest factor.

#2 Loneliness is deadly

Loneliness can lead to chronic stress.

Which has a similar effect on our health as smoking half a pack of cigarettes per day.

#3 Being introverted is not a disadvantage

For relationships:

Quality > Quantity

The study shows that even 1 or 2 close connections is sufficient.

Introversion can even be an ADVANTAGE—as introverts may not require as many connections to feel fulfilled.

Do you struggle to stay motivated?

I can help.

The 3 pillars of motivation and how to hack them:

1. Prize
2. Purpose
3. Accountability

Thread 🧵

Motivation is a complex and unreliable force.

Too often we find ourselves waiting for it.
When instead, we should be taking active steps to create it.

There are 3 main drivers of motivation:

1. Prize
The temporary reward that awaits you upon completion of a task.

2. Purpose
The deeper internal reward we often associate with "meaning" in our lives.

3. Accountability
"Oh shit, if I don't get this done I'll be in trouble."

1. Prize

Rewards can be a powerful motivator.

But they can also be dangerous.

We need to be careful not to let external rewards be our sole motivator for doing things.

Rather than rewarding yourself with something material, go for something that rewards your soul.

Example:
The reward for completing a difficult task could be some time to hang out with friends, or doing a hobby that you love.

Did you know?

When Saudi Arabia's King visited India in 1955, PM Nehru ordered all the Hindu Temples and Idols of Hindu Deities that came in Saudi King's way to be covered up.
Our temples are the architectural marvels in their own league.

Each of our temples tells the story of our rich history and cultural heritage. Was Nehru that ashamed of his own nation's heritage that he had to cover them up or there was some other reason? The answer would be best known to him only.

PM Nehru invited the then Saudi King Saud bin Abdul Aziz to India who accepted the invitation and planned a 17 day long official visit to India in 1955. Saudi King had brought a large delegation with him and he had to visit various Indian cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra,

Aligarh, Shimla, Mysore and Varanasi. However, when Saudi King reached Varanasi, Nehru ordered to cover all the temples and Idols with curtains that came in the way of the Royal Convoy. During his stay in Varanasi, Govt buildings were painted with the words "Kalma Tayyiba".

'Kalma Tayyiba' means 'There is not God but only Allah and Mohammed is his messenger'. In addition to it, Pooja and Aartis were also stopped at temples. I can call it the appeasement politics of the highest order and Nehru was indeed the greatest appeaser of all times.

So, I want to talk about how sexual harassment and fair pay are linked at Google (and beyond), because I think that's an angle that isn't being highlighted enough in the coverage of these walk-outs. I'm going to frame it largely around my personal experience there. Thread.

When I was sexually harassed by the director of the area I was working in, I was afraid to report it because I was worried that "getting him in trouble" would result in the subtle retaliation of missed leadership opportunities.

I wanted to continue working on the team I was on, because I'd gained a lot of very deep knowledge and expertise in that area, as well as reputation and camaraderie with the other folks working in that area. I didn't want to make the situation more "difficult."

To get promoted at Google, several need to happen: 1. you need opportunities for ownership and leadership above your current level (basically, opportunities to show you're working at the next level you're trying to get promoted to). The work you're "assigned" has a big impact.

2. You need glowing reviews from peers, *at or particularly above the level you're hoping to get promoted to.* Basically, you need people a lot more senior than you to say you're doing awesome work.

Did you know?

Rani Bhabani was the Queen of Natore, Bengal or 'Natorer Rani' as she was famously called. She made great contributions in Tarapith & renovated Benaras.

In Varanasi, Durga Kund Mandir was constructed by Rani Bhabani in the 18th century.

Born in Chhatimgram village, Bogra District,Her father's name was Atmaram Choudhury.Bhabani was married off to Raja Ramkanta Moitra,the then zamindar of Rajshahi.After his death, Bhabani became the zamindar, and started being referred to as Rani.She was known as Ardhabangeshwari.

A woman as a zamindar was extremely rare in those days, but Rani Bhabani managed the vast Rajshahi zamindari most efficiently and effectively for over four decades.
Maharani Bhavani was very pious in her personal life. She passed her life in a strict disciplined way.

She conducted the administrative work skillfully. As a Maharani she was an impartial judge. Rani Bhavani had a very hard time during the fag end of her life. The Zamindari (estate) incurred serious loss due to the change of the revenue policy of the company.

In spite of being the owner of a large Zamindari (estate), she had to depend on the stipend of the government in the later part of her life. The amount of this stipend gradually decreased and became Rs. 1000/- only in the end.

RANI NAIKI DEVI AND THE BATTLE OF KASAHRADA

Mohammad Ghori, the young Ghurid Prince conquered Ghaznavids in Afghanistan in the year 1173 CE. He conducted some successful raids into the Indian territory, which even Mahmud Ghazni & the Persians couldn't do.

First&foremost,Ghori invaded states of Multan &Uch in India.After this he turned to southern states of Gujarat &Rajputana.Everybody knows this about Ghori,but what most pple r unaware of is the defeat he suffered at hands of Chalukyan Queen Naiki Devi in 1178 Battle of Kasahrada.

When he marched southwards, his first target was the prosperous fortified town of Anhilwara Patan.
It was the capital of Chalukyas(also known as Solankis of Gujarat) which was established by Vanraj of Chapotkata Dynasty in 8th century.

American historian Tertius Chandler states that it was the 10th largest city in the world at that time. The history of Chalukyas has been written by many historians, but the valour of the Great Queen Naiki Devi remains unsung.

Born to the Kadamba King Paramardin of Goa,Naiki Devi was well trained in sword fighting, horse riding, strategy & every other subject of Statesmanship. She was married to King Ajaypala of Gujarat who sat on throne in 1171CE. Unfortunately,the King died within 4 yrs of his rule.
