At 7 I saw my mom had a seizure

At 9 I was hospitalized for a week

At 11 a family member wrecked my house

At 15 my mom attempted suicide

At 18 I wanted to commit suicide

At 19 my parents’ marriage was destroyed

At 20 I realized might've wasted my life & started over

At 21 I have never been more fulfilled & skilled

You have a choice:
-Be a result of your broken past
Or
-Be the reason for your bright future

@MaxbatIe Shout out to you brother. You’ve got the fire in you 🔥

[Life of Ashwin @LifeOfAshwin]

Rest in peace Joshua.

I can’t believe this happened. I still remember the times when he tuned into my Twitter spaces when no one else did. One of the most awesome people I’ve met on this platform. We even shared the same birthdays.

Being such an awesome human, it came to no surprise he had such an innate ability to inspire me through his amazing content.

I’ll miss you.

Overwhelmed & Unfulfilled?

Here’s how to unlock to get your life back on track (Instantly)

Flow has 4 steps but most people are stuck at the 1st one

1st phase is struggle, & most people never move onto the next step

Why?

Because the next step is release.

You have to step away from your work but with something un-distracting so your subconscious can fire into action

When you’re in the first phase, your mind is re-orienting itself toward your objective

Yet it also needs time afterwards to complete that process which it can only do while it’s not focused on something

So how do you apply this?

With 3 simple steps:

1. Work on something challenging that you feel a bit of struggle doing

2. Do that for 30 minutes undirected & focused on the thing

3. Walk away from it & come back 15 minutes later (let your mind wander)

Studying the most successful people in the world has unveiled two undeniable truths to make it

1. Delusional self-belief
2. Bias towards execution

Both of which have nothing to do with any unfair advantage

It’s time to stop making excuses & to start making progress

How to use colors to instantly skyrocket productivity:

1. Put your phone in grayscale during work hours -> Makes your phone far less distracting

2. Use true a red light lamp for late-night work → Reduces blue light to protect sleep quality

3. Use a black desktop background for work → Minimizes visual stimulation

If you’re building systems in your business or personal life’s — this post will save you months of wasted effort.

I used to be what you’d call a chronic system builder.

Every time I spotted a problem, I’d build an entire system for it.

No ROI calculation. No timeline check.

Just pure obsession with fixing everything right now through automation and structure.

But here’s what I’ve learned the hard way—most systems shouldn’t be built when the problem first appears.

Here’s why:
• Many problems disappear if you sit with them for a few days
• Some can be solved without a system at all
• And others aren’t even problems worth solving in the first place

What I really wanted wasn’t productivity.

It was relief—from the mental load.

I wanted everything out of my head and into a perfect machine so I could finally think clearly.

But trying to design the “perfect system” in advance made things worse:
• I delayed implementation because I kept tweaking
• I over-engineered features I never used
• I wasted weeks solving problems I never had twice

Eventually, I built a better philosophy:

Build only when the problem proves itself.

Now I keep a simple capture doc for any problems I experience. Every few days I review it.
• If the issue still matters, I ask: is there a simple fix?
• If not, is a system worth building?
• Will it give me a meaningful ROI in time, energy, or money—soon?

And when I do build?

I build in layers—add only what’s necessary, test it live, then evolve it.

Because truth is:

Whether you build it all upfront or build as you go—you’re going to do the same amount of work.

But only one of those approaches saves time, energy, and mental bandwidth.

If you’re a content creator trying to juggle systems, create high-quality work, and actually grow, don’t make the mistake I made.

Let your problem prove itself before you systemize it.

Or even better, you can also just have someone experienced do that for you

I’m in the process of validating some ideas I had for some systems I wanna build so I’m taking on a handful of clients for FREE as long as you qualify.

If you want help identifying & deploying an AI-powered productivity system that works with you, not against you—DM me “System.”

@MissElinaTemi Why’d I have to see this while I’m eating

@MissElinaTemi Happy birthday to the pops

Avenger Endgame taught me the most valuable business lesson

All from one scene

“ There is only one outcome where we beat Thanos”

It made me think

What if I had to experience 2,345,788 failures to eventually make the 1 successful breakthrough?

What if I quit right before that happened?

It’s why I can never quit

Every failure is just a means of correcting course

Like it was for the Avengers

(Ik this is not entirely comic book accurate but who cares there’s a lesson there)

I was flooded to the brim with ideas today

All of it came from just this one thing I tried today

Focusing on ☝️ theme

What do I mean by this?

I decided to just focus on productivity systems

Not,
- Fitness
- Business
- Social Skills
- Writing Threads
All in the same day

The brain performs better with one context than it does with 43 others in the same day

I love it, I’m building a system around it now!

I'm experimented with something new

"Speedruns"

No, I'm not talking about Super Mario Bros or any video game for that matter

But I am talking about a few glitches that lets you speedrun through the game of life:

- One thing at a time
- Rapid feedback loops
- The right thing at the right time
- Tons of reps in a short period of time

I've turned it into a system to master anything that takes people a couple years in just in a few weeks

I call it

"The Rapid Mastery System"

If anyone is curious about it, feel free to send me a DM

“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”

- Bruce Lee

This is a metaphor for life

There’s only so many kicks you can take in your life time

Do one type of kick you whole life & you’ll be a master

Do many types of kicks your whole life & you’ll be mediocre

This is the single most powerful productivity hack

@Syedpsd You can’t lose if you never quit

[Life of Ashwin @LifeOfAshwin]

I hope better opportunities arise for you, take care

[Life of Ashwin @LifeOfAshwin]

@Syedpsd Dude, you gotta start eating cleaner

[Life of Ashwin @LifeOfAshwin]

@Syedpsd Omg, I actually remember you posting this book one time

Been a minute

Uncle Jim is good friends with Uncle Sam, better not disappoint!

Productivity is a 3 step equation:

1. Make sure you are doing the right things
2. Do those in an efficient way
3. Don't skip to step 2

100% efficiency on the wrong things still equals

ZERO productivity

Get your phone out of your room

The distracting effects of a phone are well known to us all

But to paint a better picture, here's what studies show

Seeing notifications on your screen results in a temporary loss of 10 IQ points

Having your phone in the same room results in a loss of productivity

Out of room, out of mind
