The greatest detachment is being close to everything and not letting it consume and own you.

7 ways you can improve your life with the power of silence:

1) Never defend yourself

Epictetus once said:

β€œIf anyone tells you that such a person speaks ill of you, don’t make excuses about what is said of you, but answer: He does not know my other faults, else he would not have mentioned only these.”

Weak people hide their flaws and show off their strengths, wise people boast about their flaws without showing off their strengths.

Don’t be blinded by your own ego.

2) Never complain

Marcus Aurelius once said:

β€œDon’t be overheard complaining, not even to yourself”

Complaining is the easiest and most useless thing to do.

If it’s within your power to change a situation, do so. If it isn’t, change your perspective.

The mind gives up and gives in before the body does.

Endurance, perseverance and composure are stoic virtues.

3) Show, don’t tell

Marcus Aurelius said;

β€œWaste no time arguing how a good man should be. Be one”

Success is the result of what you do, not what you say you’ll do.

Convince with results, not with words.

4) Respond, don’t react

Cato the elder:

β€œThe first virtue is to resist the tongue. He approaches nearest to God he who knows how to be silent.

A clear indicator of wisdom is how one responds to hostility.

Never give anyone the privilege of creating anger in you.

Be cool, calm and collected at all times.

5) Choose careful what you speak about

Pythagoras said:

β€œBe silent, or let thy words be worth more than silence.”

Waste no time indulging in celebrity gossips, backbiting or childish arguments.

6) Sit still

To quote Pascal:

β€œAll of mans problem arises from his inability to sit in a quiet room alone.”

Overindulging in screen activities dulls the mind.

Learn to be comfortable in boredom, you don’t always have to be stimulated.

7) Seek truth

Naval rightly said:

β€œThe closer you are to truth, the more silent you become.”

This is because inner silence is the mother of all virtues and self-discoveries.

Silence speaks loudest, you just have to learn to listen.

Rumi once said,

Be very careful while you consume content that's pleasurable to the mind

It can corrupt you

While you're enjoying the content and getting mesmerized by it, information is being sent in your mind

Everything you read is getting stored inside you head in the exact way the writer wants it. You'll never even notice it because the beautiful words have taken your attention

This is how your mind gets programmed. By grabbing your attention while they silently feed information

The only escape is to become aware and act consciously. Stop lurking around mindlessly.

Stressing eating is normal, fasting is weird

Fitting in is normal, thinking for yourself is weird

Binge streaming is normal, binge reading is weird

Medicating with stimulants is normal, meditating in solitude is weird

If normies call you weird, you're doing something right...

You have been robbed of some of your capabilities.


The mainstream has successfully brainwashed you into believing that your work capacity depends on how motivated you are.


Which is certainly not the truth.


Discipline > Motivation


It has made you believe you should be friends with your partner first only then you can have a good long lasting relationship.


This too is false.


You just need a polarised relationship with good communication that's it.

They keep telling you to live the life you want.


But they never tell you to stick to your values and beliefs even if it is hard.


Resist the brainwashing happening around you.


Don't let them get in your head.

Generally speaking, attempting to give explanations is a waste of energy.

For those who do not understand,

no explanation will ever be enough.

For those who will understand,

no explanation is needed.

β€œSelf-care” has become a buzzword, but it’s not just referring to massages or any pampering activity

It can be as simple as ditching your daily Netflix habit and working on your long-awaited side hustle.
