Curiosity and Consistency

That’s all you need to dive deep into a topic.

I think it is very important to be good at a particular thing because then you could monetize it while teaching about it to other people. If you put your heart and soul into learning one single thing, you will end up learning it.

It will help you make content instead of consuming it like 95 percent of the world.

The universe is rigged in such a way that if you just want one thing and you focus on that, you will get it. But everything else, you got to let go. - Naval

No one cares where you are from. They don’t want to know that you know how to do something.

Credibility counts more than words.

It’s better to be motivated illiterate than to be an unmotivated lazy educated person.

But we are often the latter because the education system has become an injection to remove our curiosity. The only way to get back the curiosity we had as a child is to start questioning the things around us. If we start doing that, it helps us understand the things around us better.

We only question the things we are interested in. So questioning the things around us also helps us understand what we are passionate about.

But sometimes after working hard towards learning something new, after pouring your heart and soul into it, you start questioning if all of it is worth it. You start thinking if working hard for it is worth it.

I would like to tell you to shut up, keep your head up, and just work hard towards it. Don’t think about the results. It will affect how hard you work. It will make you question your abilities.

Just keep your head up and just work hard.

Sounds like old-school advice, but old is gold, minus the toxic masculinity, sexism, and other problems that have affected our society in ways we will take years to get rid of.

How do I dive deep into a topic?

Consistency

Consistency is key to compounding your growth in a topic. Start small if you want to. Make a routine of when you will learn that topic every day. If you do the same thing every day at a particular time, it will surely become a habit.

Final Thoughts

Going deeper is always a good thing. That’s what even she said. You know you have to do it even when the joke says you have to do it.

I don’t make the rules guys. You gotta do it now.

Go learn something you are interested in. You will always find a reason to say no to doing something.

If you really want to do it, you will.

Thank you and have an amazeballs day.
