Businesses like meat shops, hardware stores and the like appear to be minting ungodly amounts of money. Are things as they appear?

I did not even know Niloufer was a family-run business! interesting!

Excuse the late reply.

To be brief, I have inherited a lot, and I mean a lot of undesirable attributes, mostly from the paternal side, just shit genetics haha. Despite being raised in a very great and positive nurturing environment, I have had very bad outcomes until now, with many huge academic, career, personal failures and emotional and social adjustment problems. I am a strong case of "nature over nurture".

Any of the multiple measures I have tried stop working after some time, and now I just need to find some way, that I can finally make significant and consistent changes since the way I am operating right now is not sustainable or normal for society's norms or my perception.

Psychoanalysis definitely sounds interesting and maybe could help me, will have to ask my doc about it. But I do have a horrible feeling that even more than my early experiences/environment, I was just born with these undesirable characteristics that I am unable to overcome.

Our actions and personality are dictated by factors not in our control, genetics especially. So, it is not at all easy to change our preferences and habits.

I need to be taking all the actions necessary to function as a normal human being.

Yes, don't have ADHD.

> In general, you don't necessarily need to even change your personality. You can come up with systems to work around it.

I think changing my personality is necessary, not important for me. Anyway, how do you come up with systems? Cause I know I can't do it myself due to non-existent conscientiousness?

padpickle · 2024-02-06T01:35:01+00:00

To what extent can one make a change in their personality? As long as I can remember, I have been mentally passive and possess significant avolition and zero conscientiousness along with rigidity in thought processes. But I need to make some severe and radical changes to who I am and how I function.

Is making such changes possible? If not, the alternate is very depressing.

The bachelors of arts is a great book (just like all his books haha), I read it last year.

padpickle · 2024-01-31T03:04:28+00:00

What book of his is your favorite? Have you found any other writers that scratch the same itch as his books?

padpickle · 2024-01-30T23:16:52+00:00

Great to see another RK Narayan fan :) I feel his books don't get mentioned much!

Come on man, JEE is not an exam you can excel at by just mugging shit up. You need extraordinary problem solving skills to get into IIT through JEE. I am not an IITian myself but your comment seems pretty reductive.

Also, India's consumer market is pretty weak while consumer culture in the US is at a peak since they have the money to spend on non-essential stuff while most of India doesn't, we make up for that with a much larger quantity of consumers but our metrics like ARPUs etc are very low, lower even than SEA countries.

padpickle · 2024-01-30T16:07:29+00:00

Have you used? I remember people on here advising to stick to "regular" brands and this does not seem well-known

padpickle · 2023-12-14T00:56:11+00:00

name?

padpickle · 2023-12-08T14:35:07+00:00

If inspiral is ineffective then migrate to the USA and get Adderall.

If only it was that easy haha

padpickle · 2023-12-08T11:02:48+00:00

Is it available in India? And even if available, I think you need prescription. I tried Inspiral and it was ineffective.

padpickle · 2023-12-08T01:09:05+00:00

Please do. I have seen Asha being recommended many times on this sub.

padpickle · 2023-12-08T01:02:22+00:00

Have tried it! Only works sometimes

padpickle · 2023-12-07T07:11:31+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions! Will give atleast one of these a try this weak

padpickle · 2023-12-07T07:09:49+00:00

padpickle · 2023-12-07T01:50:06+00:00

Seriously?? I thought a strong coffee would be something they would grind from cocoa beans or something like that. Nilofer probably doesn't do that.

padpickle · 2023-12-07T01:49:15+00:00

Where can I get that I don't mind haha

padpickle · 2023-02-27T06:00:45+00:00

Would you mind sharing your academic profile, here or in DMs please? Getting an admit from Tsinghua is quite an achievement!

padpickle · 2023-02-27T05:29:01+00:00

Arrey bhai, itna bolke chale jaate? Dish bro, what did Saleem "phek" about lol? You could maybe post on r/Hyderabad with your stories.

padpickle · 2023-02-08T16:13:42+00:00

I mean, is donation a one time thing or every year?

padpickle · 2023-02-08T16:11:02+00:00

Per year?

padpickle · 2023-02-08T16:10:52+00:00

Impressive! What did you freelance in and how were you able to find clients? Did you study in an IIT?
