I am the best in the world

Everyone , right from the top most actor in the world to a school going boy , is pitted and told constantly that "You aren't good enough" . If you are a sports person , some new guy comes in your area who is better than you , your self confidence goes bit lower , you start performing poorly . If you are a student , there is every chance of person sitting beside you is a better than you in academics , extra curricular activities . What happens is , seeing them makes you feel bit low , jealous , danger of them taking your position ,them being better than you at your game. How do I solve this problem ? I wake up in the morning and say ," I AM THE BEST IN THE WORLD".

Most might think this is pure arrogance , bit of an attitude . But I feel like, imagine .. there is a 12-13 year old boy in a school who is being made to stay after school as punishment. He writes on blackboard ," I am the best". Then he thinks , my sister is topper of school , my brother is sports champion , my best friend recently won an award in quiz competition . He then takes chalk in his hand and adds " I am the best in the world." I am like this boy . This doesn't makes him the best , but makes him feel that he is good enough . If you wake up everyday and feel that someone else is better than you than how can you give you are the best . The energy , the feel only comes when you believe in yourself.

I am doing engineering . But I like reading , writing , acting , doing crazy stuffs with cousins , beat-boxing , drawing , dancing like a maniac . People say I cant do all those things at same time and be good at all . I say ," why not?" , just feel you are the best at it . It gives you immense confidence . You don't know how good you are until you try . I wouldn't have been able to try if I felt I cant be better than this guy or some other guy . I do not say that I am the best in public of course , it gives wrong impression . But just feel it , trust me it will give you immense confidence to carry on with your work .
PS: To be best , you got to feel like one .

To ,
All my talented friends ,
My cousins - They truly are the best,
Thank You for reading,

The True Value of Overpricing

 If you’ve ever been to an Indian market, you’ve probably witnessed (or participated in) the age-old ritual of bargaining. Whether it’s haggling with an auto-rickshaw driver over ₹10, negotiating with a street vendor for an extra lemon, or convincing the shopkeeper to round down the price of bangles, we Indians love a good deal. It’s in our DNA—we take pride in securing the best price possible. But sometimes, just sometimes, it’s okay to pay a little extra for something you truly like. That ₹5, ₹10, or even ₹20 extra isn’t just about money; it’s about the value of joy. Because It Feels Right Imagine this: You’re at your favorite chai tapri, the kind that serves tea in earthen kulhads. You can get chai for ₹10 at the next stall, but this stall makes it just right—kadak (strong), with the perfect balance of adrak and elaichi. The shopkeeper tells you it’s ₹15. Do you bargain, or do you simply hand over the extra ₹5 because this is the chai your heart wants ? Sometimes, that extr...

Bullshit Something Principle

Image
Ever found yourself in a debate, armed with facts, logic, and a perfectly reasoned argument, only to feel like you're trying to nail jelly to a wall? You present a meticulously sourced piece of information, and your opponent counters with a wild, baseless claim that sounds vaguely plausible to the casual listener. You then spend ten times the effort debunking their nonsense than it took them to invent it. If this sounds like your last family dinner or that endless scroll through social media comments, then congratulations! You've just experienced Brandolini's Law in action. So, What in the Heck is Brandolini's Law? Also known as the "Bullshit Asymmetry Principle," Brandolini's Law states: "The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." In plain English: It takes way, WAY more effort to debunk a false claim than it does to make one up. This isn't some ancient philosophical text or a deep s...

Following Your Conscience

Image
Imagine being torn between everything you've been taught and everything you've experienced. That’s exactly where Huck Finn finds himself in Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn . Society tells him that helping Jim, a runaway slave, is wrong—sinful, even. Yet, every moment spent with Jim reveals a different truth: kindness, loyalty, and friendship that transcends race and social norms. Picture Huck holding a letter he’s written to Miss Watson, ready to betray Jim. But then he remembers—the laughter they shared, the times Jim protected him, the genuine care in Jim’s eyes. And in that moment, Huck does something extraordinary. He tears up the letter and declares, “All right, then, I’ll go to hell!” This isn’t just a rebellious act; it's Huck’s way of saying, “I trust my heart more than the world around me.” It’s a moment we all can relate to—when we realize that what everyone else believes might not be what we believe. Think about it: How often do we find ourselves ...
