What type of women should you never date / marry?

Don’t marry a woman who knows how to spend money. Marry one who knows how to save it.
I know nothing is hotter than a girl who knows how to dress well, buy you nice gifts, etc, but look at the flip side.
Would you rather come home every day to find $100 missing from your wallet… or to find an extra $100 in it?
Marry the woman sliding that money into your pocket, not the one sneaking it out.

Marry a woman who loves you for who you are, not one who loves you for who you’re going to be.
My grandpa had a saying I’ve always valued. “Men marry thinking everything is going to stay the same. Women marry thinking everything is going to change.”
If she expects you to change, she won’t ever be happy with who you are now.
Ditto for bossy women. Bossy is a good attitude for work, it’s not something you bring home. You want to be her husband, not her janitor.

Don’t marry a woman with no goals. Marry one whose goals you can help her reach.
A person with no goals is a person who just hasn’t realized what her goals are yet. You don’t want to wake up one day and discover that she’s changed her mind and wants to live in Antarctica studying penguins.
Unless you want that too, in which case, well done!

Don’t marry a girl you never fight with. Marry one you fight well with
Everyone fights sometimes. A woman who never stands up to you has no backbone, and that’s bad.
But not all fights are inherently bad. Not everyone says things they wish they could take back. Not everyone hits you below the belt. Not everyone gets physically violent.
Marry someone who cares more about your relationship than they do about winning the fight.

Don’t marry a girl who’s effortlessly hot. Marry one that puts in the effort.
Looks come and looks go. But someone who’s willing to go the extra mile to carry themselves well will continue to do so.

Marry a girl who appreciates you, not one who needs you.
Basically, don’t marry someone desperate. This includes girls so clingy they won’t give you space, or ones who give you “proposal deadlines.” If they’re in that much of a hurry, it’s not you they’re after but that stone.

Marry the girl who takes responsibility, not the girl who can’t finish what she starts.
Because what does that say about your relationship?

Finally, and most importantly:
Don’t marry a girl you can live with. Marry the girl you can’t live without.
Go the distance.

The Feynman Technique Model to learn better

The Feynman Technique is a  Mental Model  named after  Richard Feynman , a Nobel Prize Winning Physicist. It is designed as a technique to help you learn pretty much learn anything - so understand concepts you don't really get, remember stuff you have already learnt, or study more efficiently. The Feynman Technique was actually a big inspiration for this blog - I try and apply this to a lot of the concepts and Mental Models that I write about. The technique can be broken down into four easy steps, but first a quick video from  Scott Young  that sums it up very simply. Learn Faster with the Feynman Technique  So now for a recap of the steps: Step 1 Write the name of the concept at the top of a blank piece of paper. Step 2 Write down an explanation of the concept on the page. Use plain English. Pretend you are teaching it to someone else (e.g a new student). This should highlight what you understand, but more importantly ...

What is procrastination and get rid if that?

I will become an IAS officer. For that, I need the best books available in the market. I need to be enrolled in the best training institute. I need the advice of a few successful candidates. I need a separate room in my house. It must have a comfortable study table and an Airconditioner. I must have the fastest wi-fi and the best laptop to study. I must take a week's break and enjoy the fullest before I start my preparations. It's too late now I will plan for the “holiday” tomorrow. In the meanwhile, a poor auto driver's daughter was studying under street lamp from torn second-hand books at 3 am in the morning. Procrastination starts from- Putting conditions on a particular task. From the lack of urgency and non-compulsive nature of an activity. From the thought of having a perfect environment to do something. The wait for the perfect moment (which never comes) The thought of undervaluing the present moment. Fear of failures or facing complexit...

There Are Two Ways to Read — One Is Useless

Reading is telepathy, and a book is the most powerful technology invented. Homer, Shakespeare, Voltaire, Flaubert, Tolstoy, Woolf, Hemingway — these are names without a living body. We can’t talk to them, nor touch them, but their thoughts are immortalized through the written word. Aristotle’s logic, Kepler’s astronomy, Newton’s physics, Darwin’s biology, Wittgenstein's philosophy — these are memes without living originators. They no longer champion their ideas, and yet, we still talk about them. Without books, humans would never have escaped the boundaries of space and time. Each new generation would have had to learn the realities of life for themselves rather having the luxury to build on the past; knowledge accumulation would have quickly dimmed towards an asymptote. Everything that we value in the modern world has its root in invention of writing. Everything that we have accomplished has come from reading. Even on an individual level, one of the most effective way...
