“You cannot win, you can only put yourself in positions to win”

This means systems thinking.

Instead of focusing on outcome, you focus on the actions that lead to that outcome.

All about where you FOCUS.

Examples below:

👇👇👇
Twitter:

Focusing on writing “THE” tweet that will go viral

vs

Focusing on writing 20 quality tweets per day.
Dating:

Focusing on finding the “perfect” partner that will become your “one true love”

vs

Focusing on working on yourself to become someone worthy of a worthy partner
Health:

Focusing on getting a 6 pack

vs

Focusing on eating correctly everyday through a strict meal plan
Business:

Focusing on that “one customer” that will make or break your business

vs

Focusing on achieving X amount of outreach activities per week to find the ideal customers
Life:

Focusing on success

vs

Focusing on becoming a person who is likely to become successful

You are leaving A LOT on the table if you think of MATH as some useless subject taught in school.

Math, when taught correctly, is a PRACTICAL skill you can use in your day-to-day to improve your life.

How though?

{A Thread}

👇👇👇
A good understanding of Math will allow you to see the world more for what IT IS than for what you would LIKE IT to be.

All the while enabling You to make better decisions while dodging easy bullets:

Some examples:
Survivorship Bias:

Things we fail to see due to biases towards the “surviving” data points.

We focus on the One winner and not the Million losers.

Lebron
Steve Jobs
Zuckerberg

The result is thinking that to Win at that level is Easy.

We are not wired to handle our hyper-connected, always-on world.

The constant overwhelming of our sensory inputs and quick fixes is destroying our mental health.

- Social media, our relationships
- The City, our peace
- Capitalism, our health

{A Thread}

👇👇👇
Social media is the ciggarette of our times.

Silently slipping by because it doesn’t cause physical illness but, even Worst, degrades us mentally.
How does social media cause mental issues?

- endless dopamine shots
- unsatisfiable need for validation
- unrealistic expectations physically and emotionally

All lead to constraint from experiencing REAL relationships.

Lessons learned, 2018:
On Markets and Life:

There are no instructions to win. All you can ever do is put yourself in a position to win.

This is because all big wins require Fortuna’s hand.
On Achieving:

Everything is attainable as long as there is Will.

Will is lived out, not decided.

The second you go agaisnt what you Should, you lose more than you can fathom.

When you don’t, Will compounds to unimagined strength.

YOONMIN CLICHÉ AU | YOONGI IS ALL THAT

Jimin has a theory: people are only popular because of who they date. If all it takes to turn the most undesirable student into the school’s center of attention is someone popular wanting them, Jimin can turn loner Min Yoongi into prom king

Here is another awesome #startupadvice narrated by @prasanna_says through apparently a @JeffBezos session with startups #Upekkhanotes /1
It went something like this...startups asks Bezos how do I know riding on this new “trend” will give me success? /2
. @JeffBezos said instead of focusing on the “trend” focus on something which will not change in the next 10 years (ex low price, convenience, selection) and try to see if you achieve that “thing” faster, better by applying that trend or technology /3

I am going to post links here to the most popular resources I have been asked for, because some people have said that they feel uncomfortable asking, but also because the number of requests is a bit much.
If there's something specific you'd like me to add, then let me know :)
Here is a link to my 'so you think you've finished display'. 17 cross curricular generic activities which you can put up as a display, print as extension cards, or insert slides into your powerpoints. drive.google.com/file/d/1aWu3un…
Here is the link to a range of different activities to promote speaking and listening in the classroom.

It was a Saturday Shoe Polishing Day this late morning. Started at 10am.
First, always make sure the shoe's verandah are brushed and blackened. Keep black, black. Brown, brown. Clear, neutral. It's essential.
Then you layer the leather with shoe wax as thinly as possible. In circular motion until it fades to a blur. Repeat at least 5 more time. Allow it to form a haze, and then take a lint free clothes to wipe it off. My left Florsheim Brogue in light brown uses neutral to keep color

@johncutlefish Because many teams, especially in larger orgs, struggle with #focus

And many #productowners struggle with mandate. So they struggle to create focus in the #backlog by driving on business goals (outcomes).

1/x
@johncutlefish And #teams are more like #stakeholder wishlist deliverers than of actual business value

So the top if the backlog is a jumble of non related jobs that staleholders ‘need’. And as a result, the Sprint backlog as well. Making it very hard to set a sprint goal.

2/x
@johncutlefish This often stems from defining #scrumteams too narrow in the org (only within IT or even just ops) AND not having clear outcome based goals as an organization.

Ten times more BJP workers have been killed than Muslims ever since Modi came to power. We command the narrative as well as dead bodies. ✌️
One more 😍
