@kevin_jordan__ Yeah, it doesn't feel good when we've to rely on external pressure/urgency to do the tasks. Like, we could have achieved/done so much more with our time.

ADHD adults do 90% of their work in 10% of their week. We only perform when urgency or interest is high. The other 90% of the time, our brain is somewhere else. That's why a 2 minute email can sit in drafts for 11 days.

@shaneparrish I heard somewhere that your first impression can be a lasting impression, but not the last.

If you're not careful your first impression becomes your last.

@anishmoonka Evolution did us dirty. Sometimes, I seriously question evolution: “Despite all the things available in the world, how come it came to this point that mosquitoes need our blood for nutrients?” Plus, they are highly irritating creatures. x.com/pathless__path…

A mosquito can smell the air you breathe out from 50 meters away, about half a football field. Your house is screaming "human" to every fly and mosquito in range, and they evolved to come find you. To a butterfly, the same house is silent. Flies and mosquitoes evolved to follow us around. The common housefly spread across the planet from the Middle East by trailing our garbage and farm animals. Nine out of every ten flies you see indoors are this one species. Mosquitoes lock onto the carbon dioxide in your breath. A 2015 Caltech study mapped the mechanism in detail. Your body heat, your sweat, your shower steam, your trash, all of it is what these insects evolved to track down. Butterflies went the opposite direction. They evolved to find flowers, with smell receptors tuned to flower chemistry. A kitchen full of frying bacon doesn't even register. They drink nectar through a long coiled straw called a proboscis, built for flowers and not much else you'd find in your house. The navigation problem is bigger. Most butterflies fly only during daylight hours, steering by the position of the sun. Monarchs have a tiny brain region that tracks the sun across the sky like a built-in GPS. Inside a house, the sun disappears. Indoor lighting gives them nothing to navigate by. The compass just breaks. Any butterfly that drifts indoors loses its bearings within seconds, which is why one trapped in a sunroom bashes against the windows for hours. Butterflies can't generate their own body heat. They are basically little solar panels, needing direct sunlight to warm their flight muscles to around 86 degrees Fahrenheit before takeoff. Most rooms never get that warm, which is why a butterfly indoors can barely fly. And there is nothing in your house for a butterfly to do. They only lay eggs on very specific plants, like milkweed for monarchs or thistle for painted ladies. Your couch is neither, so even a butterfly that loved your living room couldn't reproduce there. About 18,000 butterfly species share these traits. Houseflies, by contrast, are one of the most successful animal partners humans have ever had, even though nobody asked for them. The joke is right, just for the wrong reason. Butterflies skip your house because nothing in it looks like a flower in open sunshine.

@motordave2 @DriveSmart_IN @dabir @RCBengaluru @anil_lulla @InfraEye @SSavijith The way things are going, I feel it'll take at least a generation to fix the wrong behaviors many people have come to believe as normal/okay to do in everyday life.

@GrizzKhan But he hasn't been offered a new contract and the season's about to end. I don't feel Edwards and Hughes are oblivious to what's going on. Maybe they are acting silently behind the scenes. Hopefully, we'll get some Fabinho style good news after the season ends.

As iv said many times , I don’t think Edwards and Hughes are in favour of Alonso as much as many think or hope. So much uncertainty around our club at the moment as no one really knows what’s going to happen. Intriguing few weeks ahead. #LFC

@David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC David dear, you nearly scared me. (LFC supporter here) But the good thing is that this will finally force Hughes and Edwards to act, who otherwise have been acting at Snail's pace.

🚨 Chelsea exploring deal to appoint Xabi Alonso as next head coach. 44yo former #RMFC boss understood to be open to possibility, although nothing decided yet as process continues. Andoni Iraola also strong contender ahead of departing #AFCB @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/69645…

The quality of your life depends on your emotional skills. If you don't have them, then everyday becomes unnecessarily hard to get through. You'll be tossed and turned by the waves of emotions, and will be at their mercy for relief. P.S. - I have personally gone through this phase.

@FlorianFocus Have faith bro. Hopefully, we'll hear some good news after this season ends.

So you're telling me that Xabi Alonso is going to join Chelsea, because our stubborn, egoistic board can't accept the fact that they've made a mistake by keeping Slot and he's going to stay for next season as well👍 Tough times ahead

@DearS_o_n I feel wise man rises above the blame game, otherwise he isn't wise yet.

A broke man blames his income. A wise man blames his habits.

@TransferSector @JacobsBen @GiveMeSport Richard Hughes, focus on getting Alonso first.

𝙏𝙍𝘼𝙉𝙎𝙁𝙀𝙍 𝙉𝙀𝙒𝙎: Marcos Senesi has an agreement in principle with Spurs if they stay up, however, Liverpool are contemplating whether to hijack that deal, reports @JacobsBen, @GiveMeSport 🔴🇦🇷

@CFCDaily @MsiDouglas Hopefully, this is just Alonso playing 7D chess to force the LFC hierarchy into sacking Slot and come to Liverpool.

🚨❗️Alonso is open to the prospect of a move to Stamford Bridge. Alonso has some high-profile backing inside the ownership group. [@MsiDouglas]

@theMadridZone @Ramon_AlvarezMM If he leaves Madrid, then whoever buys him will definitely have a clause like Suarez had in Barca contract for proper behavior (if I remember correctly)

🚨🚨 BREAKING: Some LOCKER ROOM HEAVYWEIGHTS are now asking Real Madrid to SELL FEDE VALVERDE THIS SUMMER! @Ramon_AlvarezMM

@chakravartiiin The satire levels in this post 😂😂 Thank you brother for making many of us laugh in the difficult times.

From my experience, Yoga is/will be even more helpful for people with ADHD.

2) Many times, when doing deep work (reading, writing, etc), an impulse of checking social media would come to mind. In 2025, I would have acted on that impulse 9/10 times. But now, I would act on that impulse around 5/10 times now. And that's a huge improvement for me.

If you want to: - Reduce acting on your impulses - Have a degree of control over your mind Then, I would genuinely recommend yoga. I can't tell you how much it has helped me so much with the above 2 points. You can check out some examples from my life below:

@ze_rusty Wrote along the same lines recently x.com/pathless__path…

Why are we sick?

@asim_lfc Dear Arne, whenever I see our team playing football, I observe that players don't know what they're supposed to do, they are just reacting to the opposition. I'm waiting for the season to get over, and then hopefully club will make a change.

No pressure on the ball. Passive central structure, opposition’s 10 causing confusion in the pockets, +1 in the backline not stepping in or across. No pressure from the front, if there is on occasions, it’s not followed up by the second line. Liverpool are one of the easiest sides to play through because of bad OOP principles and it’s been the case for far too long. When will Slot learn? #LFC

@motordave2 @DriveSmart_IN @dabir @anil_lulla @RCBengaluru @autodevot The wrong side riders don't want to take a long U-turn to save petrol, but somehow they have come to believe that it's okay to give people inconvenience and potentially create accidents by riding on wrong side.

Bharatiya City 🚨⚠️ Wrong side riding now on Footpaths as well in Bengaluru. Pedestrians should be careful on footpaths ahead! @DriveSmart_IN @dabir @anil_lulla @RCBengaluru VC @autodevot
