I remember a sweet Amharic teacher from my elementary school. One day, she said, "አጥብቆ ጠያቂ የናቱን ሞት ይርዳል...". I was puzzled and asked, "But isn’t it good to know? Shouldn’t we ask?" She looked at me with a smile and said, "Yes, but that's not the way to learn how your mother died. Sometimes, it’s better not to ask too much."

I want to relate this to decision-making. We often feel the motive to gather every little detail before making a decision, believing that the more we know, the better we can choose. But in reality, as we accumulate more and more information, we often end up feeling overwhelmed and confused, unable to decide at all.

Have you ever been in a new environment where people bombard you with so much information that you just want to stop listening altogether? The more you know, the harder it becomes to make a decision.

I once read that when making decisions, you should avoid deciding with less than 30% of the information, but also not strive to gather more than 70%.

The sweet spot for decision-making lies between 40% and 70% of the information available. Anything less and you’re likely to be uninformed; anything more, and you might find yourself drowning in details, unable to decide.

I just read this

'A stopped clock is right twice a day, but a clock that loses just 1 second a year is right only once every 43,200 years. So it's better to quit than to be a little bit behind.'

But hey, don’t take it too seriously we're not clocks, right? 😂

If you make it to the end of this post, you should definitely add ‘reading marathoner’ to your resume 😁

I was reading Carol Dweck's book Mindset, and here’s something interesting I found.

We’ve all heard it before, right? every one saying "It’s because of your mindset… ." just forget the detail and lets relate it to something

Do you know someone who seemed destined for success, someone with incredible skills and intelligence, but found them struggling or not living up to their potential? why someone so talented can end up stuck or unable to accomplish what they set out to do? And then you might think, "Wow, this person is a genius! If only I could be like them." I bet you’ve felt that way.

But here’s the thing sometimes, even those geniuses don’t make it. You might even surpass them. Why? Because when people are praised for being naturally smart, they start to believe that their intelligence is fixed, like it’s something they were just born with.

The problem with this belief is that once people think their intelligence is a given, they stop working to develop it. Their abilities start to fade, or they get overwhelmed by the pressure of living up to everyone’s expectations. They might let pride get in the way, thinking they don’t need to improve, or they might be paralyzed by fear of failure.

And what about you? If you believe that intelligence or talent is something you either have or don’t have, you’ll end up losing out too. The reality is that no matter how smart you are, you still need to put in the work. You have to keep learning, keep improving every day.

That’s why people who start with little, who might not seem particularly gifted at first, can end up becoming the geniuses everyone talks about. They believe that they can develop their intelligence and skills through hard work and effort, and they do. But if you believe your intelligence is fixed, even with all your potential, you could end up losing it and becoming just another "what could have been."

Thanks for sticking around until the end! Now go stretch your legs you’ve been here a while. 😂

@tiletsolution

I wrote this whole text and got only one like. 😕 Anyway, the whole point is this is....

If you believe you’re some kind of gifted genius who doesn’t need to work because you can handle anything without effort don’t let your pride fool you. Get up and start working on your skills before you start to lose them and end up a prideful fool 🤪.

And for those who are gifted but feel the pressure of high expectations, remember this. It’s not the praise that defines you it’s the effort you put in. If you stumble or fall short, it doesn’t mean you’re not smart or capable; it just means you need to keep pushing, keep learning, and understand that setbacks happen to everyone.

And for those who think they lack genius and keep saying, 'I’m not good at this,' just stop the nonsense and learn how to do things. Growth comes from effort, not just talent.

And give me some likes you don’t pay for them 🤔

@tiletsolution

And hey, thanks for all the likes you guys are making my night 😁 Keep 'em coming!

I remember, oh my God, I keep saying 'I remember' Its because I stopped attending some sessions, but here’s the thing. one trainer told us that positive energy is four times stronger than negative energy. And it’s true! When someone laughs, you start laughing too. When you meet someone full of energy, you can’t help but feel that way as well. Positivity is one of the most free and powerful things we have. Just by giving it, you also receive it.

I love the wisdom in King Solomon's words: 'እውቀትን የጨመረ ሃፅያትን ይጨምራል.' Even in the Bible, there's a verse that echoes this: 'ጥበብ ሲበዛ፣ ትካዜ ይበዛልና፤ ዕውቀት ሲጨምርም ሐዘን ይበዛል። መክብብ 1:18.'

It's a reminder that gaining knowledge comes with responsibility. If you're not careful, you might end up adding more suffering to your lives and those around you.

let's seek wisdom with care, knowing that true understanding also means bearing its weight wisely.

Like if you agree

@tiletsolution

The idea is not to limit ourselves from learning and growing. True growth comes from effort, wisdom, and a willingness to accept knowledge. but, it's important to recognize that not all knowledge brings peace; some can bring suffering. It's about being selective and mindful understanding that not every piece of information is essential or beneficial. Wisdom lies in knowing what to seek and how to apply it, so we enrich our lives without adding unnecessary burdens.

@tiletsolution

I've been thinking a lot about existentialism lately and how we really shape our humanity through our will and the knowledge we pick up along the way. It's pretty wild to realize that every choice we make actually contributes to who we are.

@tiletsolution

Has anyone accidentally 😁 or intentionally worked on a project like a Reactive LED | Sound-Activated Music Visualizer? It's a sequence of lights that syncs with sound, lighting up based on the band or frequency range of the audio.

If you've done something similar, using any microcontroller like ESP, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or others DM me!

When you start counting stars because you have no home...

እንኳን ቤትና (ለምለም) የለኝም አጥር (ለምለም)
እደጅ አድራለሁ (ለምለም) ኮከብ ስቆጥር (ለምለም)
ኮከብ ቆጥሬ (ለምለም) ስገባ ቤቴ (ለምለም)

And suddenly, you have a home 🤣

I’ve noticed that many of the songs I used to listen to as a kid often felt meaningless and focused on problems, challenges, and setbacks.

It makes me wonder why there weren't more hopeful and meaningful songs back then. 🤔

Why wasn’t there more uplifting music to inspire us?

@tiletsolution

When the teacher says 'Add 0°C to 0°C,' but you take a detour:

1. Convert 0°C to Fahrenheit: 32°F
2. Add 32°F + 32°F: 64°F
3. Convert 64°F back to Celsius : 17.78°C

So,

0°C + 0°C = 17.78°C?!?

Looks like math is throwing a plot twist! 😁

Whoever Solves This Scheduling Problem Deserves a Nobel Prize (or at Least a Gold Star)!


You have a group of N workers and need them to appear in a rotating sequence over T interval. Each worker should show up exactly once before any worker shows up again. and, their appearance and departure are instantaneous, so no time is lost between shifts.

The catch? You can only tell each worker to show up at a fixed interval, like every 10 minutes, and they all start their timing at the same moment. The challenge is to make sure they appear in a smooth and rotating order.

who was saying there is a solution to every problem? 🤔

Dude asked me to print him the periodic table.

Guess what I gave him 😂

@tiletsolution

What is the meaning of life if we don’t live it to the fullest? Why do we fear struggle and shy away from exploring possibilities? After all, each day we’re moving closer to the end, so why let fear hold us back?

Are we afraid of suffering? But haven’t we already faced enough suffering to understand that it’s part of the journey?

It’s time to accept the challenge, to discover, and to push our boundaries; step into this new chapter with courage, knowing that our struggles are the stepping stones to our greatest achievements.

The time is now. Live boldly. Seek out the possibilities. The journey is ours to take.

"How can I afford it?"
