How to get rich?

  • Seek wealth not money or Status - Status and money is zero-sum game but creating wealth is not zero-sum game. Wealth is having assets that make money while you sleep.
  • You’ll get rich by giving society what it wants but doesn’t know yet how to get, at scale.
  • All the returns in life be it wealth, relationships, knowledge (should) compounds over time.

Value your time.

How to be happy?

  • Happiness is really a default state, happiness is there when you remove the sense of something missing in your life.
  • More desires, less happiness if you can’t fulfil them. Choose one big desire in life at any given time to give yourself purpose and motivation.
  • The more present you are, the more happy you are.
  • Peace is happiness at rest, and happiness is peace in motion. You can convert them anytime you want.
  • Try to eliminate as many 'shoulds' in your life, real happiness is when you do everything you want to do not should do.
  • The world just reflects your own feelings back at you.

How to get peace of mind?

  • You don't want peace of mind, you want peach from mind. Remove the mind's chattering and you will get peace.
  • Use meditation, exercise and music to reset your mood.
  • For every annoyance, build a habit of thinking what is the positive thing about it.
  • A busy mind accelerates the passage of subjective time.
  • If you don’t want the 100% swap with the person, there is no point in being jealous.
  • If you’re evenly split on a difficult decision, take the path more painful in the short term. Short term suffering, long time gain.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Ghazala Begum

Giovanna Scalzone

Jamyson Haug
