    Demystifying the Fear of Rejection

    In this blog post the fear of rejection which comes naturally to human beings, has been demystified. This post has been inspired from Steven Pressfield’s book The War of Art.

    This is a commonly associated fear with many human beings. This happens mainly due to the intense arousal of our limbic brain which is responsible for resistance.

    Right from the caveman times our brains are programmed for this feeling of resistance.

    Hence to break the fear we need to face fear eye to eye.

    This would help overcome the innate resistance of our limbic brain as mentioned in the below insight.

    Downside of High IQ for Rethinking

    Is there any downside of High IQ?

  • Relevance of Dunbar’s Number

    Relevance of Dunbar’s Number

    What is the relevance of Dunbar’s Number in the age of Social Media?

    What is the relevance of Dunbar’s Number in the modern day of social media? To know the answer we first need to understand the concept of this number.

    Understanding Dunbar’s Number – “British anthropologist Robin Dunbar theorized that a typical person can’t easily have more than 150 people in his tribe. After 150 friends and fellow citizens we cannot keep track. It is too complicated.”

    This exposes the limitation of human brain in terms of maximum number of connections we can have at any point of time.

    In the modern age of social media where we have virtual friends and connections it is common to have 1000 connections showing how superficial we can get in the age of social media.

    Seth Godin exposes us to this truth in his book Linchpin and inspires us to focus on true human bonds instead of superficial virtual connections.
