"The Elephant in the Brain"

 "The Elephant in the Brain: Hidden Flaws and Hidden Motives" is a thought-provoking book by Kevin Simler and Robin Hanson that explores the unconscious motivations and biases that drive human behavior.



*Key Concepts:*


1. The "Elephant" represents our unconscious mind, which controls most of our thoughts, feelings, and actions.

2. Self-deception: We often hide our true motives from ourselves, leading to conflicting desires and behaviors.

3. Hidden motives: Our unconscious drives, such as status-seeking, mate-seeking, and self-signaling.



*Main Arguments:*


1. Humans are not as rational as we think; our unconscious mind plays a significant role in decision-making.

2. We systematically deceive ourselves about our motivations, leading to self-delusion.

3. Understanding our hidden motives can help us make better choices and improve our relationships.



*Implications:*


1. Politics: Understanding hidden motives can help us navigate conflicts and improve policy decisions.

2. Personal relationships: Recognizing unconscious biases can foster empathy and cooperation.

3. Self-improvement: Awareness of our hidden motives can aid personal growth.



* We aren't as simple as seems to us.

Izzat!!


 Kya jo mila nahi zindgi se,

Jisse itna gila hai,

Kya jaroori hai sab pa jana,

Hota hai ki kuch chut jata h,

Jo tumhare liye sab kuch tha,

Yeh bhawnaye hai jo bheti si,

Nirmal or saral,

Tu bas kud ko badhata chal,

Shukriya aada ker waqt ache ka,

Or nikharta chal kaushal apne,

Bas kartvyon me dub ja pura,

Tu tere liye mahatpuran h,

Itna hi kafi h,

Hausla rakh,

Or khud per yakeen.

Sapane!


 


Sapane to sapane hote h,

Vo bhala kab apne hote h,

Keench le chalte h,

Khawabi duniya me,

Haath pakad badi sadagi se muskura saath apne,

Or main chal pada sab chod saath uske,

Vo duniya badi khubsurat thi hamari,

Un khushiyon ki deewani kaynaat h saari,

Tum kon ho,

Or kanha se aaye ho puch baithi yeh pagali,

Kanha yakeen tha jo mil gayi thi khushiya saari,

Itne chahare dekhe har ek rishte ko dekh,

Ki maanane ko na tha tyaar yeh dil,

Ek khoobsurat kahani,

Sapane bhi na jaane kitne dekh daale,

Sapane naye or purane,

Ki aa hi gayi manzil nazdik,

Laga yeh vahi h jo padha tha kitabon me kai dafa,

Do hoker bhi ek jaan the,

Phir asliyat aayi chupke se sapane me,

Thoda muskurayi or itrayi,

Aankhe taira meri or mudi,

Bhul baithi ho haqeeqat apni,

Main royi,

Or neend se uthi,

Kho chuka hai ab sab,

Jane vo sab sach tha ya jhooth,

Per mera sapana to saccha tha.




Silent Battels!!




 A silent battle refers to the internal struggles and challenges that individuals face, often unseen and unheard by others. It is a personal and private war that rages within, as one navigates through difficulties, emotions, and conflicts. This silent battle can manifest in various forms, such as mental health issues, emotional turmoil, or hidden hardships. Despite appearances of calmness and normalcy on the surface, the person may be fighting to overcome fears, anxieties, or painful experiences. The silent battle requires resilience, courage, and determination to persevere, and its warriors often emerge stronger and wiser, though sometimes scarred. Recognizing and acknowledging these unseen struggles is crucial in providing support and understanding to those who are fighting their own silent battles.They need true relationships and unconditional compassion.So just support each other we don't know whose's going through which silent battel.


"Surrounded by faces, stories untold,

Silent struggles, hearts turned cold.

A rainy day, gloominess descends,

Music, coffee, work, no solace sends.


Trapped in a role, living for show,

Longing for someone that's not mine,

Fear of hurting others, a heavy weight,

'Am I doing right?' echoes through the night.


Torn between truth and pretended peace,

Shall I vanish, or find release?

In what depths do I lose myself?

A search for solace, a heartfelt wealth.

Growth!!


 Growth,

Where we don't allow each other to quite,

Growth,

Where distraction from path isn't allowed,

Growth,

Where we don't allow being sad for a moment ,

Growth,

A path towards dreams,those seems unattainable, 

Growth, 

Leaving all comfort zone and pushing hard till last moment, 

Growth, 

Towards happiness with right consciousness,

Growth,

Moving ahead on righteous path,

Growth, 

A motivation and care!!


Keep achieving zenith. Till the time we have purpose in life any kind of negativity cannot touch anyone.
