most people spend years trying to get better at things other people are already great at. which makes sense on the surface but it’s also how you disappear into a crowd. here’s what’s wild though ~ neuroscientists estimate your brain has around 100 trillion synaptic connections. and the exact way those connections are wired, shaped by every conversation, every failure, every weird obsession you’ve had, has literally never existed before in human history. so when you stop performing and start actually being yourself, you’re not being vulnerable. you’re deploying the one thing no one on earth can copy. competition becomes kind of irrelevant at that point. you escape competition by being authentic because no one can compete with you on being you

@itsreallyvivek Very profound I hope everyone reaches a point in their life where they are content enough to be themselves

Something I’m trying to internalise lately - “don’t cry over spilt milk” And I think for me it stands as a reminder to not fret over past mistakes, lost opportunities or life regret in general. Nobody can change the past. All we have is now and what we do with it. Gn🫶🏼

WHAT THE F*CK ARE YOU AFRAID OF - Death : We’re all gonna die. - Bankruptcy : You can make it all back. - Shame : Everyone will forget in a week. - Rejection : It happens to everyone. - Failure : It’s part of the path. - Judgment : They’ll judge anyway. - Losing people : Not all are meant to stay. - Making mistakes : You’ll survive them. - Taking risks : Regret hurts more. Live every day like it's your last day.

This year I’m learning to have the audacity ✌🏻

@visionbyangelic Pretty cool still

Gemini made this based on our conversations. the primary focus is a little off

Be crazy enough to believe you can do anything in life.

@mehak_karma Hopefully 🤞🏻 Will get to know acceptance in a month of two

@polymath_diary interesting. is it getting published?

I now understand why research and academia spaces encourage collaboration (Writing a research paper on a deadline on my own for the first time 😅😭 Wtf)

@mariyaivasileva Was my first time submitting a paper I have never been more scared of a deadline before :|

Me in year 1: submits at 11:59PM local time Me in year 10: submits at 11:59PM AoE A decade in research, and somehow the only thing I’ve learned is that “deadline” is a vibes-based concept. Shoutout to everyone who survived EMNLP!

@mehak_karma Submission deadline of the conference 😅 There were many last minute revisions and my first time writing a paper

@polymath_diary why do you have a deadline? is it a project to be submitted? T_T
