it’s funny how you procrastinate only when you want to fix your life, not when you’re destroying it.

Here's a short guide to fix your life in 3 weeks
Week 1 - Detox and Declutter
- List all your goals and priorities.
- List all the things that are keeping you from reaching those goals.
- Cut off boring toxic people who are holding you back.
- Break at least one self destructive habit - smoking, porn, doomscrolling or junk food
- Replace it with something better
like doomscrolling -> reading books
Week 2 - Rebuild yourself
- Fix your sleep schedule
- Fix your eating habits
- Daily physical activity for fitness + discipline
- Track your finances
- One small daily growth habit to build consistency read 10 pages, write 250 words, build small projects
- Build momentum with small daily wins
After two weeks, you'll already have good control over your actions and habits
Week 3 - Push yourself
- Eliminate distractions and set healthy limits
- Focus on income: learn a skill, apply to jobs or build a side hustle
- Face your insecurities and do things that make you uncomfortable (public speaking, meeting new people, cold emails, etc. )
- Maintain the momentum that you built already and keep yourself busy so you don't relapse.
Bonus - Bookmark this tweet, start your journey and post about your progress to keep yourself accountable

Some of you don’t understand the level of extremism in Pakistanis and Bangladeshis.
They’re not like you or me.
They have no humanity.
They’re worse than rabid dogs.
You might think I’m crazy for saying this, but you need to read about them.
Those two countries were built by slaughtering my people. They are descended from rapists and religious fanatics. And it’s not just “history”.
They actively hate us now.
You’ll understand when Muslims outnumber your people in your country, and rape/kill millions of your people.

To all Indians...
You may have countless personal differences over caste or state.
But on the Internet, you must stay united.
Learn to call out racism against Indians.
Limit those actions which reinforce negative stereotypes.
Don't let anyone normalize hate against Indians.

It should be illegal to expose kids to React.
Kids should focus on Maths, art, literature, philosophy, communication and sports.
If you really want to teach your kid how to code (for some reason), teach them game development, linux, and electronics instead of web dev.

I made more money this year than I made in the last 4 years.
now at almost 23, I’m in a position that I can stop working and I won’t have to adjust my standard of living.

Don’t try to micromanage your expenses.
Just make more money.
I cannot stress this enough - TRACK EVERY SINGLE RUPEE THAT YOU SPEND.
Trust me, the fastest way to go broke and stay that way, is by not knowing where your money goes.
Take it from someone who's spent a lifetime in the lower middle class and under generational debt, lads.

Being cheap is terrible for your mental health. Don't be afraid to spend money.
Spend that $100 on doordash.
Buy that $2,000 laptop.
Buy that nice $400 desk.
Trying to save every penny will result in u making significantly less money overall.
Money FLOWS.

Rana Ayyub would be beheaded if she said anything like this against the prophet of her own religion.
In India, she walks free and enjoys the freedom of speech while spreading hate against Hindus.
I don’t hate her for what she does.
I feel sad at the weakness of us Hindus.

Kashi being a healthcare hub will be poetic...
If you're sick, come to Kashi...
If you get cured in Kashi, that's good.
If you die in Kashi, that's not bad either.

I beg you to try your best to fix your life just for once and lock in for 3 months.
once you see a glimpse of your true potential, you will find it hard to go back to your current pathetic self.
once you earn some money, taste some freedom and feel some recognition, you will crave for more.
then you won’t need any cheap motivation. your hunger for the high you feel in these 3 months will fuel you to go beyond your limits.

if you can afford to leave India, don’t listen to any blind nationalist telling you to stay. your kids deserve better.
Disgraceful !
In #Bengaluru, school kids had to be rescued after their bus nearly toppled on the cratered #Balagere–#Panathur Road.
How long will netas & babus stay numb to citizens’ pain? Do our children’s lives mean nothing?

go out there and enjoy life right now or work hard to build a better future.
both of these are reasonable approaches to life, and you should ideally strive to balance them.
but the worst way is to waste life not being able to do either because you’re hooked to your phone.

Priest king for a reason 🗿
India’s oldest living city has been discovered in PM Modi’s native village, Vadnagar.
Deep archaeological excavations in Vadnagar have revealed evidence of a human settlement dating back to as early as 1500 bce to 800 bce.
This also breaks the myth of the archaeological "dark age" in India confirming a continuing civilization

junior devs are fucked.
the job market is really bad.
outside of the tech twitter echo chamber, most freshers are not “cracked”.
they don’t understand half of the words in junior dev job posts.
the gap between what they know and what the companies require is HUGE.

As a 22 yo freelancer, if I'm earning around $5k/month in India, should I go for masters in the US or just keep doing what I'm doing 🤔
$4-5k is a decent monthly income where I live, and I'm pretty lazy, so it's a hard choice.
Besides, my GPA is low, so I need high GRE score.

America struggles with wokeism.
Africa struggles with dehatism.
India is probably the only country that struggles with both.
We Indians have to fight against both jeets and brown sepoys to protect the future of our country.

Calls himself an atheist.
Uses a Hindu name on FB, Instagram, etc.
Makes fun of Hindus.
When exposed, starts playing the victim card. Even now, he's just repeating the words of Jinnah.
Anyone with a sane mind would know that minorities in India are far safer than in Pakistan.

Just returned from Mahakumbh..

Walked over 30km, almost lost hope to reach Sangam multiple times (when the police diverted the crowd to other ghaats for crowd management), but finally when I reached there after circumventing the city, it seemed all worth it 🙏

You were not a "gifted" kid just because you scored over 90% in high school.
Most of your peers were not serious enough at that age.
You can't make an academic comeback now because the things are not so easy anymore.
If you were truly gifted, you wouldn't be so miserable now.

4 years back, I thought my life was over because I fucked up JEE and couldn't get into a good college...
I was broke, my family wasn't rich...
and (apparently) I blew up my only way of building a decent career.
I was straight out of school, couldn't get into a public university and a pvt college was just too expensive.
So I did what I could...
Applied to jobs like cable TV installation.
Worked on a data entry job for a couple of months. Got scammed.
Couldn't figure out what to do.
I almost gave up...
But then...somehow I got started with freelancing... Did some small gigs.
And gradually built a stable career.
I still don't like myself and I'm still not where I wanted to be, but I'm content with how I 'fixed' my life despite the odds.
Today, as I turn 22, I feel so glad that I didn't give up...Happy birthday to myself!
If you think your life is messed up beyond repair, then you need to think long term.
People overestimate what they can do in 6 months but underestimate what they can do in 6 years.
It's never too late to take a hold of your life. You just need consistency and compounding.

As a man, by the time you're 25, you should have faced enough failures and rejections that no failure can scare you anymore.
You should be strong enough to stay unfazed at things which would make the weaklings cry.

I may be blackpilled, but my nationalism is too deep to let me escape my country.
I was born here, I'll build things here...
I'll strive here, and ultimately, I'll die here.
I will travel the world when I have enough money, but at last I will live in India no matter what.
