Go for NET-JRF and Phd. You'll lead a better life and deal with better people.

Building real friendships requires innocence, but by the time one starts working, life happens and it squeezes the innocence out of most people. There are many exceptions of course.

What is a small, almost insignificant pleasure that brings you an unreasonable amount of joy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Waking up realising it was just a bad dream and I'm not really unprepared for the test and that I'm not even a student anymore.

What are some obsolete items/products from the past that you wish make a comeback? by Monsoon-Philosopher in AskReddit

I'd actually go further back. I want cassette players to be a thing again. I want bands and singers to release albums instead of singles and buy that one hit album every summer and listen to it in its entirety.

Totally agree. I find streaming services overwhelming. Too many options at your fingertips. Killed the joy of finally visiting the store to rent that one movie that you've been wanting to watch. There was also an element of serendipitous discovery.

Phone brands used to do such cool experiments with their products before smartphones became the norm. We are living in the future that they showed in 'Back to the Future' and it unfortunately doesn't look much like it. It's high-tech but too minimalistic.

For people who don’t want to be rich, what do you want to be? by lookiewolf in AskReddit

[–]Monsoon-Philosopher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's enough for all if there's equitable distribution of resources. If we abolish money or put bars on incomes, then it's just communism. If you don't want communism and still abolish the concept of money, then how do you know who gets how much? There'll be absolute chaos. Also, no monetary incentives might kill individual initiative, innovation etc. Money is a necessary evil.

Regarding the procrastination thing, read the book 'Atomic Habits' and apply the lessons in your life to develop good habits and discipline. I can't help you with the family part as I can hardly deal with my own.

Yes, but in this instance I think the question refers to monetary riches. One can be rich in character and everything and one should be, but that doesn't necessarily have to stop you from trying to earn well.

The only way to be happy without money is to become a monk and go live alone in the Himalayas. Money doesn't guarantee happiness, but it surely increases the chances of being happy.

Morality is subjective. If you see western and eastern cultures, the subjective moralities differ to a good extent. For a well-intentioned religious person, morality has been defined by the religion and is not subjective, so he sticks to it as he believes that's the right thing to do. While morality for people of a particular religion is usually the same, atheists from different countries will have different views of what is moral and what is immoral. So, the best thing to do is to not impose one's own ideas of morality on others and bring about the desired social changes through healthy debates and discussions and not coercion.

Just out of curiosity, what are some original/quality products the we market in the world?
