📚 Many influential business figures, including @JeffBezos, @ElonMusk, and @BillGates. say they learned some of their most important lessons from books.

Here are some that the tech giants recommended adding to your reading list this year. 👇

Some of Bezos' favorite books were instrumental to the creation of products and services like the Kindle and Amazon Web Services.

One of those is Walmart founder Sam Walton’s autobiography in which he recalls his career.

https://t.co/rhjcI1z3JC

This Kazuo Ishiguro novel tells of an English butler in wartime England who begins to question his lifelong loyalty to his employer while on a vacation.

Bezos has said of the book, "Before reading it, I didn't think a perfect novel was possible."

https://t.co/rhjcI1z3JC

Bezos’ "favorite business book" draws on six years of research from the Stanford University Graduate School of Business that looks into what separates exceptional companies from their competitors.

Elon Musk's must-reads include a number of sci-fi novels.

He read "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" as a teenager, even saying the spacecraft in it is his favorite spacecraft from science fiction.

https://t.co/rhjcI1z3JC

Musk has also recommended several books on artificial intelligence, including “Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies,” which considers questions about the future of intelligent life in a world where machines may become smarter than people.

Bill Gates is known to make book recommendations quite often.

He said this is "the best business book I've ever read," when discussing "Business Adventures: Twelve Classic Tales from the World of Wall Street."

https://t.co/rhjcI1z3JC

Gates has called Hans Rosling’s book on thinking patterns and tendencies that distort people's perceptions of the world, "one of the most educational books I've ever read."

I went from 900 to 125,000 followers in 12 months.

But 90% of that growth came from 9 threads - which on their own generated 20,000,000 views.

So here's a recap of those 9 threads (and what they can help you with):

I studied math at Princeton - mostly because I hated writing.

But colleges do a horrendous job teaching you to write.

So I spent 200 hours learning to write on my own.

Then, I summarized the frameworks I

College completely failed in teaching me how to write.

So I spent over 500 hours studying legendary authors and copywriters.

Then, I distilled what I learned into 6 simple frameworks.

But unlike college, these won't cost you $120,000.

Here they are for free:

While learning accountancy a student is taught to
👉Debit all expenses, credit all income.
👉Debit all assets, credit all liabilities.
👉Debit the receiver, credit the giver.
Why is it so?
Let us find out the rationale behind three golden rules of accounts. 👇🧵 (1/n)

'Balance Sheet' and 'Profit & Loss Account' are two important aspects to learn accountancy.
Let us first understand how to interpret a Balance Sheet. (2/n)

Balance sheet is a simple snapshot of ‘Sources of funds’ (‘Liabilities’) and ‘Application of funds’ (‘Assets’) as on a ‘particular’ day. (3/n)

It is important to note that the Balance sheet may change every day. That’s because the liabilities side and the assets side may change frequently.
Example: The customer from whom the amount was receivable (Debtor) will get converted into Cash the moment he pays money. (4/n)

Suppose a businessman starts a business with his own money (equity/owner’s fund) and uses this money to buy various assets. (5/n)

21 lessons learned in 2021:

Engineered Serendipity

I believe that some of what we call "luck" is actually the macro result of 1,000s of micro actions.

Your daily habits can put you in a position where "luck" is more likely to strike.

Increase your serendipity surface area.

Engineer your own serendipity.

Pessimists Sound Smart, Optimists Get Rich

Pessimists look at the future and see the doors that are closed.

Optimists look at the future and see the doors that are open—and probably kick down the closed doors, too.

Surround yourself with optimists. The future is bright.

The Exponential Growth Challenge

Human brains cannot fathom the insane power of exponential growth. We consistently underestimate its impact.

When you're on an exponential growth curve—stop trying to set specific goals.

Strap in, keep your head back, and enjoy the ride.

Work Like a Lion

Most people are not wired to work 9-5.

Modern work culture is a remnant of the Industrial Age—long periods of steady, monotonous work.

If your goal is to do inspired, creative work, you have to work like a lion.

Sprint when inspired. Rest. Repeat.

Some ofthe biggest breakouts occur after Volatility Contraction, the analogy is that more a spring is pressed, higher it jumps whenever it gets released.

There is a VCP Scanner on chartink (Not mine). This may also be used to find potential Breakouts.

SRI LALITHAMBIGAI, THIRUMEYACHUR (TN)
#bharatmandir #navratri2021

Kshetram where Shiva is worshipped as Meghanatha and his consort is Lalithambigai seen in Abhay mudra.
Once, a demon Pandasura was harassing the Devas who went to Devi Parashakti for protection.
@GunduHuDuGa

Devi rose from a Yaga Gunda, mounted on the Sri Chakra Rath with the name Lalithambika, waged a war against Pandasura and destroyed him. When her fury did not subside, Shiva asked her to go to Earth, assume the name Manonmani, perform penance and shed her fury.

Shiva blessed Devi to be Shanta nayagi. There is a sculpture here depicting Shiva pacifying Devi. If you observe closely, you can see that from your left hand side there will be a smile on Her face and if you see from your right hand side you can see anger in Her face.

Hayagriva taught the greatness of Lalitha Sahasranama to Rishi Agasthya. Pleased with his devotion, Ma Lalithambikai appeared before Agastya. He is believed to have then sung Lalita Navaratnamala in praise of Devi. He has also composed a hymn named Rahasyanamasahasram.

Wracając do sedna dzisiejszego zamieszania z artykułem autosportu / motorsportu. Kubica mówi w nim, że podejmie swoją decyzję w ciągu kilku dni. Rozważa opcję z Williamsem lub posadę kierowcy symulatora w Ferrari. Więc za kilka dni dowiemy się co go czeka za rok. #F1PL

Autosport / motorsport zmienił nagłówek swoje tekstu, bo pierwotnie sugerował on że Kubica jest numerem jeden na liście Williamsa na tytuł mówiący tylko tym, że nadal jest na liście kandydatów. Zrobili to po interwencji zespołu. Same wypowiedzi Kubicy z wywiadu się nie zmieniły.

Trudno powiedzieć czy autor się pośpieszył i wyciągnął inne wnioski niż powinien, a może wie coś więcej, ale nie mógł tego otwarcie napisać. Słowa Kubicy brzmią jednak jednoznacznie: decyzję podejmie w ciągu kilku dni.
