"Innovation needs a lot of experimentation, experimentation needs exploration, explorations will result in failures. If you do not have tolerance for failures, you wont succeed"

How a 28 Year Old Man Bankrupted One Of England's Oldest Banks

I was actually watching a YouTube video noscriptd "Why People Are So Confident When They're Wrong," which discussed overconfidence and the Dunning-Kruger effect.

In the video, they mentioned Nick Leeson, the trader who brought down Barings Bank, Britain's oldest merchant bank, in 1995 by hiding losses of $1.3 billion. This destroyed a 233-year-old institution that had survived both World Wars.

Leeson was arrested and served four years in prison. Later, he wrote a book called Rogue Trader.

i was curious so i searched about him and found a YouTube video where he was invited to speak 👆

over confidence can kill your future and others around you

if i was given a chance to become a billionaire or to be able to understand Quantum Physics

i will definitively choose Quantum Physics

The thing is even if there is something you really want, the chances are you will follow it only if you believe there is a chance to achieve it, because you have to assume that what you want is 1. impossible, 2. wrong ... etc

But if you said you have to follow it no matter what, then a morality problem will arise. Think like a kid who wants to become like a girl “that is completely wrong” from our side. There is now way I could allow my kid, even though…

So, by just manipulating the terms and words, we can say we are just delusional, and the fact that we achieve something is totally probable. There is no rule in following dreams

Whether we follow it or not, nobody can call us coward or visionary (because somethings are wrong and impossible or something else)

I’m not sure what I’m writing 😁 but you got the point


If you don’t get it, forget about it

the thing is consciousness is just a burden there is no point of being aware of something we can't fully understand

we didn't selected this way btw and i am not sure whether there is a point in finding higher purpose or not but we still try i mean (i still try to find and leave a purpose in my life) is there a problem in doing that? i dont know is there another way? i dont know?

what do i know is that i get confused sometimes (always 😁)

anyway sorry for my writing and my nonsense

You should keep discovering new doors at the same speed the existing ones are closing. The one thing you should never forget is that there are more doors than we already know.

We all know the feeling when we lose something or a door gets shut on us. That feeling comes not because it was the only way or the only thing we wanted. It comes because it was the only door we knew. So keep discovering more doors.

Who gives a fu** if some keep closing. We still have plenty more to open and the more you explore, the less power any single door has over you.

How is college traumatizing this much

This is what Ethiopian opals look like.

a book by Mark Manson

life gets better when you stop caring about everything and choose carefully what truly deserves your energy

American Dream: a man fights for what he wants, never gives up, and eventually achieves his wildest dreams

Ethiopian dream: "begize mesebseb" 😁

do you agree ?

The desire for more positive experience is itself a negative
experience. And, paradoxically, the acceptance of one’s
negative experience is itself a positive experience.

the more you try and grab a hold of something, the more it slips through your fingers.

This guy Hiroo Onoda stayed hidden in the jungle for almost 30 years because he thought World War II had never ended.

He kept carrying out small missions on a Philippine island, convinced every surrender notice was enemy propaganda. Someone finally tracked him down in the 70s and brought his former commander to give him the direct order to stop. He later died at the age of 91.

can you imagine 30 years in the jungle after the war was already over

Decided to take a nude photo no makeup, no filters, no body, no organs. Just pure energ ...😂

History time

Cyrus the Great’s grandfather Astyages punished his general Harpagus in the most brutal way taking his son and serving him as food and revealing it afterward. The general stayed calm and said

“Whatever the king does is right.”

Years later he helped Cyrus rise to power. Cyrus defeated Astyages and created the greatest Persian Empire turning the old prophecy about him into a self fulfilling prophecy
