12 Best Quotes from the Book “The Obstacle Is the Way”

⚡️Book Review⚡️

 1. “Whatever we face, we have a choice: Will we be blocked by obstacles, or will we advance through and over them?”
2. “There is no good or bad without us, there is only perception. There is the event itself and the story we tell ourselves about what it means.”
3. “Focusing exclusively on what is in our power magnifies and enhances our power.”
4. “Our perceptions determine, to an incredibly large degree, what we are and are not capable of. In many ways, they determine reality itself.

👉When we believe in the obstacle more than in the goal, which will inevitably triumph?”
5. “There is always a countermove, always an escape or a way through, so there is no reason to get worked up.

👉No one said it would be easy and, of course, the stakes are high, but the path is there for those ready to take it.”
6. “All we need to do is those three little duties

-to try hard
-to be honest
-to help others and ourselves.

✅That’s all that’s been asked of us. No more and no less.”
7. “We decide what we will make of each and every situation.

👉We decide whether we’ll break or whether we’ll resist.”
8. “Failure shows us the way—by showing us what isn’t the way.”
9. “It’s supposed to be hard. Your first attempts aren’t going to work. It’s going to take a lot out of you—but energy is an asset we can always find more of.

👉It’s a renewable resource. Stop looking for an epiphany, and start looking for weak points. Stop looking for angels.”
10. “True will is quiet humility, resilience, and flexibility; the other kind of will is weakness disguised by bluster and ambition.

👉See which lasts longer under the hardest of obstacles.”
11. “Wherever we are, whatever we’re doing and wherever we are going, we owe it to ourselves, to our art, to the world to do it well.

✅That’s our primary duty. And our obligation. When action is our priority, vanity falls away.”
12. “You’ll have far better luck toughening yourself up than you ever will trying to take the teeth out of a world that is—at best—indifferent to your existence.”
Can you remember…

- the worst/best decision you’ve ever made?
- the consequences of it?
- all the possible perspective you had?

Go to an upper level of decision making and make you mind to be on auto pilot mode.

You remember the high point and the end point of your holiday, but the rest is forgotten.

My takeaways from the best seller
#ThePsychologyOfMoney by @morganhousel

It beautifully encapsulates , via chapters , the most under rated factor in investing - The Psychological aspect of it .

Do read the book :)
#BookRecommendations
#booklovers


2/31
CHAPTER 1

What we experience early on (in our adult life) is more compelling than what we learn second hand, which is why each person thinks about #Risk & #Reward DIFFERENTLY.

In theory we SHOULD make our investments based on OUR goals & options available.


3/31

However we tend to include our unique experiences of how the world works (albeit with incomplete information) which might seem crazy to others .

* Spreadsheets cannot replicate human emotions which is why no amount of studying can make one truly UNDERSTAND the underlying.

4/31
CHAPTER 2

#LUCK & #RISK both play a role for EVERY outcome along with individual effort. At times making a greater impact than the consequential actions taken .
This we ought to remember when judging others' financial success.

Not ALL SUCCESS is due to hard work.


5/31
Likewise, NOT ALL POVERTY is due to laziness.

To learn from successful people, we must focus on BROAD PATTERNS & not on specific individuals ( for we often tend to just study extreme cases at both ends of the spectrum. )

It's never AS GOOD or AS BAD as it seems !!

9 Best Lessons From "48 Laws of Power" by Robert Green

- 𝙏𝙝𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙-


1. Always Say Less Than Necessary

The more you talk the more likely you will say something foolish.

- Ask questions and listen more
- Control what you reveal about yourself
- Avoid revealing your weaknesses to others

2. So Much Depends on Reputation – Guard It With Your Life

You can use it to intimidate and win.

But it can also kill you and the opportunities that present themselves to you.

Being unpopular and going against what's popular might seem cool, but it can harm you too.

3. Win Through Your Actions, Never Through Argument

Any triumph you gain through argument doesn't have much value, won't last long and is a waste of time.

The more you think about this, you realize how true it is.

Focuso on your actions.

4. Avoid the Unhappy and the Unlucky

Emotions can be as infectious as a pandemic.

Avoid people who portray themselves as victims. You won't be able to cure them, so don't sink trying to save them.

Surround yourself with happy and ambitious people.

(THREAD) The Whitaker scandal is deepening, as it becomes clear that Sessions' Russia recusal was a coordinated sham and his firing an act of obstruction—and that his replacement is a White House plant inside the Mueller probe. I hope you'll retweet and read on for more details.


1/ From 2014-17 Whitaker worked for World Patent Marketing—which during his tenure defrauded consumers out of $26 million and was successfully prosecuted by the feds. His involvement in the scam confirmed he had loose morals and that the feds would never want to employ him again.

2/ Despite the seeming impossibility of a man with Whitaker's background getting a job at Justice ever again—he'd been found to have used his former title as a US attorney to fraudulently threaten consumers with valid complaints with criminal penalties—Whitaker found an opening.

3/ Within 60 days of parachuting out of World Patent Marketing as it was being fined $26 million by the feds, Whitaker was working for CNN and telling a fellow attorney panelist that his purpose in working for CNN was to get noticed by one man—Donald Trump—and thereby get a job.

4/ Whitaker spent his time at CNN making ludicrous statements about the Mueller probe: there was no obstruction or collusion, he said; Mueller had no authority to look into any aspect of Trump's finances or to subpoena him, he said. All the while, he hoped Trump was watching him.

SRI VARAHA NARSIMHA, SIMHACHALAM, VIZAG (AP)
#bharatmandir

One of the 32 Narsimha Kshetram of Andhra. It has a unique form of Narsimha, appearing like a shivlingam

It is said that Narsimha’s fierce nature is soothed by worshipping him with Varaha, considered a peaceful deity


The shrine is believed to have been constructed by Prahlada. With time, it crumbled.
In Treta yuga, King Pururava was passing from here in his vimana. The vimana was attracted to this place by a mystic power.
When the place was unearthed, the deity was found.
@GunduHuDuGa


Pururava’s wife, Urvashi, had a dream that the deity should remain covered in sandalwood paste for the whole year except on Akshaya Tritiya.
This practice has continued till date.
The mukhya mandap here, has a pillar kappam stambham believed to possess curative powers.


Chandanotsava/ Chandan Yatra is the most important festival celebrated on Akshaya Tritiya. The sandalwood paste is removed from the moolavar deity and nijarupa darshan (original form of deity) for twelve hours of the day are done by devotees.

Agastya Muni & Kaveri River
#story
This is a story which describes how River Kaveri was brought on earth by Agastya muni. There was a king named Kavera lived in the Brahmagiri hills who prayed to Brahma for a child. He was blessed with a daughter whom he named Kaveri.


Agastya muni married her. A demon, named Shoorapadma, wanted to trouble people so he prevented rain from reaching South India. As a result famine occurred in South India.
Agastya Muni who came that way was very sad seeing this. He started to pray Mahadeva for a solution.


Shiva gave him small amount of Ganga water in his Kamandalu (small pot) and said wherever you spill this water the river will flow from there. Agastya Muni travelled lot of places to find a suitable place to pour water. Feeling tired he kept his Kamandalu and took rest.


At that time Ganesha took a form of crow and perched on the Kamadalu and made a hole that water began to flow as river Kaveri. This place is now called as Talakaveri (Karnataka), located in the Brahmagiri hill.


Tala Kaveri has temple for Agastheeswara, which denotes the story between Kaveri and Agasthya muni. Kaveri is a part of Ganga, thus, also called Dakshina Ganga.

@ChenHuailun here. I'm adding a supplementary thread before today's scheduled one to expand on the origins and early history of the Church of the East (aka the Nestorian Church) ~ahc #jingjiao 1/


The Church of the East traces its origins to the christological position of the School of Antioch, which held that the human and divine and human essences (ουσία) of Christ were united in a single prosopon (πρόσωπον). ~ahc #jingjiao 2/


This ran against the position of the School of Alexandria, which held that the two essences of Christ were united in a single hypostasis (ὑπόστασις). In general terms, hypostasis is more inherent than prosopon. ~ahc #jingjiao 3/


One implication of the Antiochene rejection of the hypostatic union is that Mary could not accurately be called the Theotokos, or God-bearer. Instead, she is the Christotokos, the Christ-bearer. ~ahc #jingjiao 4/


These Christological debates were further complicated by Syriac terms such as 'kyana' (ܟܝܢܐ), associated with 'ousia' but later translated to 'hypostasis' by Syrian Orthodox; and 'qnoma ' (ܩܢܘܡܐ), sometimes contentiously translated as 'hypostasis' or 'person.' ~ahc #jingjiao 5/
