Just registered for IELTS (late September) and this post will serve as public accountability for myself, otherwise I've been very lazy lately and this might spiral further. Target is just at least 7.0 . Not aiming for higher than that at all, as the sole purpose

God bless science and innovation and specifically the person who figured out how to make anesthesia. I'm still under the influence of it (wisdom tooth) and literally can't speak right now. Just imagine the pain of extracting the tooth without it, reminds

On "Necessity is the mother of invention"In a resource-constrained environment, a man has no choice but to extract maximal utility from the few options in his arsenal. You see him pushing above average with strict discipline because he is acutely aware of his limitations compared to those living in abundance, he has no choice but to perform. There's also a term for this in creative/engineering psychology: "Generative Constraint" - the law that creativity, elegance, and mastery do not precede limits; they are produced by them. Sadriddin Ayni’s reported saying (when his son and daughter studied in Moscow) is that he sent little money to his son and more to his daughter, explaining that “wealth corrupts a son, but poverty harms a daughter.”Why does this dynamic invert between genders then? It comes down to how Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs behaves under pressure:For a daughter,

On Action and IntelligenceThe universe is constructed in a way to humiliate you for not taking any action. The world simply doesn't care if you are smart, ambitious, or kind. You might have the perfect laid out plan for your life yet unless you take action on it, it is all useless.Intelligence part... sometimes it is too much, pattern recognition at the highest level... I believe it is a curse. You read the room and context very well, yet if you refuse to partake in small-talk you are rendered as an outcast in a matter of seconds. Yes, just by being yourself and then you think, what's the point? Politeness? You watch them perform that exhausting "politeness" and think why even bother?The paradox here is: your own stubbornness stops you moving through such world and take action in it. If only there was a way to turn off that stubborn voice. It is smart as we know it and it wants

"YouTube bros are like "wake up at 4am and run, that’s alpha!" No it’s not. Look at the apex predators they’re all lazy. Bears hibernate, lions sleep all day, you know who wakes up at 4am and runs? Squirrels" - unknown@acceptthyself

Target is just at least 7.0 . Not aiming for higher than that at all, as the sole purpose of booking is to register for PhD.. aahh this bureaucracy!If it didn't have that 2 year expiry date I would use the certificate I attained 4 years ago (7.5) for a lifetime)). Saying IELTS is overrated in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan would be an understatement. Cheers!Btw, I am taking Speaking and Writing mocks via @BandBoostBot 😉@acceptthyself

📚 Faust, First Part by Goethe - 20/24 Book (2026) This is what I call another absolute "cinema" in literature. It counts that way only when you read and so immersed in the process that you forget the outside world exists. Must-read. I haven't even started the 2nd book (2nd part) yet here I am seeing the genius of Goethe. This was ahead of its time, the lessons, morale still hold truth from the several books I've read that were published centuries later."O happy he, who still renews The hope, from Error's deeps to rise forever! That which one does not know, one needs to use; And what one knows, one uses never."Read those lines again. Life forces you to act on incomplete knowledge, what matters here the most is checking the output and refining your next action super fast. Everything is built around it, you act then fail, you learn from that failure

I got offered $20,000 to sell the whole Cinemagic HD stack, but I didn't. Clearly, they were either industry giants trying to shut down the whole project after acquiring it or turning it into promotion of their own product. Two other options were: gain the how-to knowledge that took us 3 years to meticulously build, proven MVP, huge userbase or just someone trying to scam (wasn't likely from the way negotiations went). I simply couldn't trust them and it wasn't even for sale to begin with. You pour your heart into something for years and seeing it gone, I simply couldn't conceive it. At the same time I know this has been my Achilles' heel, yet someone had to do make the call anyway. If it weren't for close to ceiling pricing of CDN giants, no one would've even considered starting such project.@acceptthyself

"We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost." - Charlie Chaplin in The Great Dictator@acceptthyself

Would you personally be interested in video versions of these posts in YouTube? Going deeper with visuals, narrative and my own original voice with the same vibe. Curiosity is gonna kill the cat with this one.@acceptthyself
