A few important life hacks which I have implemented over the past few years that have helped me immensely.
A 🧵
2/10
🔸Making Gratitude an Attitude
Comparison is the theft of joy.
Each day begins & ends with gratitude.
Now I no longer envy others.
I am content. I feel blessed for whatever I have & work hard & live life each day to the best of my ability.
A book that must be read by all direct equity investors but will be appreciated & understood by a few, that too only after witnessing an entire cycle play out in markets.
Few of my takeaways from this 💎 by Howard Marks.

To consistently beat the market,
You either need a ton of luck or superior insight & awareness of psychology.
Because investing is at least as much of an art as it is a science, it is essential that one's investment approach be intuitive & adaptive always.

We 80's kids are truly blessed.
Life was simple then !
We used to play until we were screamed at to return home.
We enjoyed our childhood without mobile phones & WIFI by playing a wide variety of games which improved our hand eye coordination,stamina & focus.
A brilliant no frills book that offers a framework for thinking about how to improve your decision making , along with a set of tools that help execute it.
A few of my takeaways from this gem !
2/18
There are only 2 things that determine HOW your life turns out : LUCK & QUALITY OF DECISION MAKING.
We have some control over only one of those two things.
When you make better quality decisions, you increase the chances of good things happening to you.

Do you know why most of us are majorly unhappy with our lives ?
Why do we constantly feel anxious or secretly envy others' life ?
Why do we feel unhappy despite having quite a few things going for us?
Meaning,
Leverage specific knowledge -> Scale it -> Get wealthy.
Takes decades as one needs time to figure out what they can UNIQUELY provide.
But FIND & BUILD SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE for it can't be taught & can only be learnt.

I first read this book in 2009 after losing 80% of my monies on Penny stocks as a student when the 2008 drawdown happened.
Thought it was too simple !
Now in 2021, I think this is one of the best books to absorb & implement.

Investing means different things to different people - Be it health/ career/external assets with an intent to reap benefits in future.
So then is everyone an Investor ?
No.
When people do different things with even same investment products we give it a different name.

Sharing some takeaways from the book : India's Money Monarchs* , ONLY of the conversation with Sanjoy Bhattacharya.
Everything in life can teach you when you possess the right mindset.
Read across a wide spectrum,for the scenes change but the behaviours & outcomes don't.
Few young adults asked me ways to improve focus.
Sharing what I follow.
To begin with :
* Turn off all gadgets
* Sit in a room & read hard copies of books / newspapers
* Primarily try to focus & absorb the content
* Read aloud if necessary
2/5
* First read with an intention of consuming content . Read slowly
* Gradually shift to reflecting upon it
* Then memorising points
* Finally writing takeaways
* Don't use mobile / laptop for reading when developing attention span . Mostly they are counter productive !

Few of my takeaways ( with random 2 min doodles).

Firstly,
What is Zen ?
#Zen is a Japanese word that is derived from the Sanskrit word Dhyana meaning "Meditation" .
2/21
Zen is a journey of exploration & a way of living that , in and of itself doesn't belong to any one religion or tradition as such.
Zen doesn't teach. It merely
points, enabling us to wake up & become aware.
Ever noticed how zen stories rarely have predefined morals? 🤓
