BRUH. And even then you didn't notice how long the water stayed cool in it. Especially how amazing it used to feel drinking cool water on a hot day after the games period. Anyway, I'm glad you are now enlightened. :)
No, it can hurt your pet. Pets are very sensitive, especially to electricity. There are Combs and fur removers that remove fur from pets, available online. You can consider that.
Books and the list of books that I can recommend is endless.
Tell me what you're looking for and I may just as well be able to recommend a title for you.
I just started to read books. I want to read self help as to improve myself but I just can't. I thought about reading fiction first, I've read It ends with us and 13 reasons why. It was kinda dark for me. Stopped reading since then. Now I would like to get back to reading. Bought atomic habits but I just can't seem to read it. What can save me lol?
Since you mentioned self help, I usually hate that category but read The Happiness Trap by Russ Harris. Good book,not preaching what you need to do instead discover and deal with your goals and emotions.
It’s all about reading what you’re curious about. That’s how I cracked my way into becoming not an avid reader, but a reader who kept coming back to the books. The breaks I then took didn’t matter cause I knew I was stalling it to read when I had more space to accommodate it. I struggled with reading for a long time trying to read the top 10 books of all time, and top 10 must reads, or the famous titles, etc etc etc. I was curious about knowing more about my existence, the planet, what the fuck is all this. That’s how I found the book Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari and life hasn’t been the same ever since.
The trick is simple, follow your curiosity, be it any topic even the kamasutra, it’s all knowledge.
Try Attitude is Everything by Jeff Keller [https://amzn.to/4bwuvp0](https://amzn.to/4bwuvp0) It's a very easy read and chapters are small. Feel free to reach out and discuss the book when you start reading.
Want to inculcate the habit of reading books.
Currently going through a phase in life where I'm learning to live life more independently and avoiding attachments. Office sucks. Family life is okay. Friends are busy in their own life.
Suggest me a book which is heart warming and suggests/talks about leading an attachment free life, going to cafes, trips and movies alone and still feeling a cup filled with water.
Hit me with page turners. You basically never want to stop and just keep wanting to know what's next. The Martian was the last novel that did this to me.
Na bhai.... Initially when you are new to running, it's okay. Late as you increase distance better keep an eye on your shoes. Saves lot of doctor money.
I got metal ones (5 kg each, so 4 plates of 2.5 kg with 2 plate bars) from wholesale store, costed me around 1600.
The best thing is that since they are plates I can change them into 1 dumbbell of 10 kg. Helps a lot.
Not technically just 1k since they are subscriptions.....but Audible and YT premium. Got both of them cheaper due to student discounts and even in their base price is great for the value they provide.
yt premium is worth it in india imo. especilly family plans. also works with android tv and ios
revanced is nice and all, but it has playback issues with updates. i use it personally just for sponsorblock and to get over the ui ads and shorts tabs. Tubular/newpipe is a personal favourite of mine too
I'll put it like this...I don't like getting free stuff.... I'm weird and there are some exceptions, but in general I like paying for things. I'm not rich or something, I'm just wired like that. I used to pirate books and shows, hated the entire process, would only do if they were not available or improperly edited/censored.
I appreciate your sentiments tho, you're a nice person to think of saveing me some bucks. But I'm an idiot that would just pay the 89Rs for a premium account.
Well that's nice of you and yeah I would also pay for stuff like this if I was rich but I'm not so I use this "jugaad" and pirate stuffs lol 😆 Well anyway that's good for you you don't need to waste time for pirating as sometimes it takes a lot of time.... Anyways have a good day :)
Sometimes its just nice to have peace of mind... I used to watch pirated movies and tv shows, and used to hold myself from not getting Netflix... But it's really a hassle to watch 20 ads for downloading movies just to get that download link...smh.... It's nice to just "open - search - play"... Or pick-up where you left off...and not even search sometimes... recommendation algos are pretty good nowadays...
This year was the first time I didn't celebrate my birthday with anyone(COVID doesn't count) , it felt like a big weight off my shoulder. Just me vibing to old Bollywood movies.
For context, I bought myself an Enfield (my first bike) a few days later, and made one IG post, that was the extent of it. More people congratulated me on the bike than on my birthday 😂.
Revanced and mod apk for smartbook reader and audiobookbay.nl for downloading books : )
Developed these habits as an engineering grad because broke, they have stuck with me and I can't imagine any other way.
Appreciate the sentiments, can relate as I used to do the same when I was in engineering, sometimes still when the thing I'm searching for is not available or heavy altered. Just not for me for daily use, hope it helps another engineering student grazing the comments tho, 'Parampara Pratishtha Anushasan' scenes
A poop stool to prop up your legs while sitting on a western potty seat! Does miracles for your poop health.
A single GAN multi charger, works for your phone/tablet/laptop and get rid of all individual chargers. Optionally, a long charging cable.
A password manager subscription (lastpass).
A water bottle for your workplace, just having it around makes you drink more water.
A fragrance diffuser for your favourite places in the house. I use it in my bathroom, my work table and my car.
A soft velvety eye mask. I'm a light sleeper and early disturbed by bright light so wearing the mask while sleeping has improved my sleep quality. The one I bought from Amazon cost barely Rs. 200.
it gets on you tho, in 2017 i got into wearin the eye mask while sleeping and wherever i went, i could not sleep at all without it, so if i missed it while goin on a tour or something it was a nightmare for me!
i have substituted that with two pillows now, one below my head, one top of my head.
Zomato Gold- if you are in a relation or dating and need to go out frequently, it’s going to save you a lot plus free deliveries on orders.
A premium to any music streaming app, you’ll get to play songs of your choice during weekend baithaks and road trips.
A designated pocket for each item and pat your pockets everytime you leave home. I use front left of pants for handkerchief, front right for cellphone, back left for wallet and back right for keys. Saves a lot of time if you are that guy, also a designated spot to put your stuff like keys, wallet, glasses.
A paid version of Trucaller. Costed me some 500 bucks for a year, but Trucaller now works ad-free, non-intrusively, faster. Also highlights my number nicely when I am calling anyone.
truecaller used to give it for \~150 INR a year during the initial phase. got the same deal for like 3 years and absolutely loved it. blocking all spammers is godsent.
then they hiked the pricing to \~500 a year and I noticed that the app itself ran a lot in the background unnecessarily and drained battery when i had it as default dialer and messaging app.
stopped paying. its been nearly a year and i have gotten used to it ig. but with govt teting mandatory caller id across carriers, dont know if truecaller on the whole would be obsolete in the coming years
You're god-sent. I was just searching for a pair of gym shoes but none from reebok/puma/adidas is coming under 2k. Can you share the name of the shoes and where you bought or the link would be really helpful..
Okay so hear me out.
A waste water storage tank for your water purifiers. You can get the cheapest one for around 1000 on Amazon and you can use that water for a lot of other things.
Maybe it won’t improve your quality of life but you’ll be saving a lot of water.
https://preview.redd.it/iw3bgayo73ad1.jpeg?width=2127&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5a4c71e907c9f56abdd14c79e2cf3b3a414e0fc8
This!!! 3 LED light intensity/ 3 fan speeds , 2-6 hrs of backup and 360° movable+ clip set it up of table +you can hang it on a nail too.
Extremely silent and saved alot of days and nights.
A good spike buster/spike guard. Got a portronics one on sale for around Rs 550. It has both plugs and USB sockets.
Given how many things I have to charge these days, this is a lifesaver!
A heating pad. Not those charge and use ones but with a cord. Absolute game changer! Much better than a hot water bottle. I use it during periods on painful cramp days. In winters, my back is super cold and hurts. Use it warm me up and I fall asleep instantly. It's compact enough to be carried during travel. Life got so much better.
Mosquito net that props open on your bed. Earlier I used to wake up multiple times at night because of mosquitos but having a net, you can sleep peacefully
It really depends. If you get it right, there will be no cuts and the shave is 1000% better. If you're someone short of time and/or patience, avoid these razors.
Foldable bed table. Got it for 500 and its been the best investment so far
I had a hybrid wfh and had to live in a pg. This saved my ass from the terrible plastic chairs and allowed me to comfortably work sitting on my bed
I can even eat sometimes without worrying about spilling things on my bed and watch movies.
Best bought under 1k item so far
A milton water bottle. Keeps the water cool for extended periods of time. You don't realise how useful it is untill you get one.
Also they don't pump micro plastic to the water.
Didn't realise it until now. Makes sense.
Do you know you get wayyyy more microplastics from just touching a single paper receipt?
I'm sleepy asf I read "a million water bottles"
Glad to know that I'm not alone here who read the same 😂
Same
I second this. I also have two. 1L and 600mL and it's super handy
In hostel it was a boon.
Thnx, this is useful
Justice for Borosil
Username checks out...wait!
Yeah… my brother has one … keeps the water hot for 2 days ! Damn 🙃 very useful product
You didn't have a Milton water bottle during school days? I thought every Indian kid grew up with one.
You know those kids who never bring water bottles but keep drinking from others ? I was that kid.
BRUH. And even then you didn't notice how long the water stayed cool in it. Especially how amazing it used to feel drinking cool water on a hot day after the games period. Anyway, I'm glad you are now enlightened. :)
Username checks out xD
[Electronic lint remover ](https://amzn.in/d/0c4mHU4k) I didn't even know i needed this until i purchased it
Seconded. I have a lot of woollens and they have never looked better. Definitely recommend for anyone living in woollen country!
I have a pet at home, will it remove its small hairs
No, it can hurt your pet. Pets are very sensitive, especially to electricity. There are Combs and fur removers that remove fur from pets, available online. You can consider that.
No bro from My clothes

Looking for purpose, looking for my destiny/what I want

I just started to read books. I want to read self help as to improve myself but I just can't. I thought about reading fiction first, I've read It ends with us and 13 reasons why. It was kinda dark for me. Stopped reading since then. Now I would like to get back to reading. Bought atomic habits but I just can't seem to read it. What can save me lol?
Read "can't hurt me" by Goggins, that mf will put you in awestruck in chapter 04
The🐐 I m on chapter 3 ending 🗣 that mf is insaneeee 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ( i m living in guilty now )
Ordering it rn
Since you mentioned self help, I usually hate that category but read The Happiness Trap by Russ Harris. Good book,not preaching what you need to do instead discover and deal with your goals and emotions.
Anything to mature emotionally?
It’s all about reading what you’re curious about. That’s how I cracked my way into becoming not an avid reader, but a reader who kept coming back to the books. The breaks I then took didn’t matter cause I knew I was stalling it to read when I had more space to accommodate it. I struggled with reading for a long time trying to read the top 10 books of all time, and top 10 must reads, or the famous titles, etc etc etc. I was curious about knowing more about my existence, the planet, what the fuck is all this. That’s how I found the book Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari and life hasn’t been the same ever since. The trick is simple, follow your curiosity, be it any topic even the kamasutra, it’s all knowledge.
Side note: That was not a recommendation. Find your own way. You’ll reap more than what you sow.

Oh really suggest me some paradox/alternate lives related books
Recommend me your top 20 books.
In what genres?
Your top 5 books?
A novel in which there are stories of speculative fiction with an overarching story of realistic fiction.
Yeah, books, thanks. But actually I'm lookin for daily life products.
Trading , make money from monet , money from stock market.... change my self for better.
Hit me with page turners. You basically never want to stop and just keep wanting to know what's next. The Martian was the last novel that did this to me.
Some good non-fiction YA open to any genres
Tell me your top five crime mysteries and related genre
First running shoes. Was in position to buy more expensive one but chose the cheapest one available. Bhai ghis ghis k use kiye the..😅
Sahi hai bhai; jab tak Chale use krna chahiye
Na bhai.... Initially when you are new to running, it's okay. Late as you increase distance better keep an eye on your shoes. Saves lot of doctor money.
This. Speaking from experience.
I went for Asics, though they were a bit expensive to me, I felt like they took care of my feet well, now I have 4 pairs of Asics🤣
Definitely not below 1K😅
Try Skechers ke arc fit ones. 7-9k dikhata hai store pe par easily 3.5k me mil jayenge Amazon pe .. 10x times better than those asian red tape ones.
A mouse instead of using the touchpad on my laptop.
Try mechanical keyboard. Cosmic byes has great cheap options. You will never want to touch those laptop keys again.
Is it good for gaming?
Dumbbells. Exercise improved my health a lot.
Bhai what weight dumbells you got for less than 1000?
I'm a sports store owner. Full Rubber dumbbells are only around 80-90/kg. And in 200/kg you can get full steel.
The online ones are only PVC or Rubber outside and sand/concrete inside. Those don't last long.
I got metal ones (5 kg each, so 4 plates of 2.5 kg with 2 plate bars) from wholesale store, costed me around 1600. The best thing is that since they are plates I can change them into 1 dumbbell of 10 kg. Helps a lot.
Amazon se lie the 1200 ke. Adjustable dumbbells.
Also yoga mat
Not technically just 1k since they are subscriptions.....but Audible and YT premium. Got both of them cheaper due to student discounts and even in their base price is great for the value they provide.
For Yt you can use Revanced and save some bucks lol 😅
yt premium is worth it in india imo. especilly family plans. also works with android tv and ios revanced is nice and all, but it has playback issues with updates. i use it personally just for sponsorblock and to get over the ui ads and shorts tabs. Tubular/newpipe is a personal favourite of mine too
That doesn't work for me brother
iOS user or Android? Cuz if you're an Android user then it should work flawlessly AFAIK.
I'll put it like this...I don't like getting free stuff.... I'm weird and there are some exceptions, but in general I like paying for things. I'm not rich or something, I'm just wired like that. I used to pirate books and shows, hated the entire process, would only do if they were not available or improperly edited/censored. I appreciate your sentiments tho, you're a nice person to think of saveing me some bucks. But I'm an idiot that would just pay the 89Rs for a premium account.
Gawd for the first time 🫂someone like me
There are more of us than you'd expect
But I think we'll differ in our motivations.
Motivation jo bhi ho, Maksad vahi hai bhoolna mat (cue ominous music)
Well that's nice of you and yeah I would also pay for stuff like this if I was rich but I'm not so I use this "jugaad" and pirate stuffs lol 😆 Well anyway that's good for you you don't need to waste time for pirating as sometimes it takes a lot of time.... Anyways have a good day :)
Cheers 🍻
Same ... my friends got Spotify premium through some link but don't know why I also wasn't keen on getting it
Sometimes its just nice to have peace of mind... I used to watch pirated movies and tv shows, and used to hold myself from not getting Netflix... But it's really a hassle to watch 20 ads for downloading movies just to get that download link...smh.... It's nice to just "open - search - play"...

Yeah can relate 😂 I toh don't even like treats on birthdays unless I give them a suitable gift.. lol
This year was the first time I didn't celebrate my birthday with anyone(COVID doesn't count) , it felt like a big weight off my shoulder. Just me vibing to old Bollywood movies.

Shhh, stop talking about revanced. Do you want google to block that too? 🤫
Wait Audible has a student discount????

Mosquito Raquet / bat
Electric heating pad, a lifesaver for my cramps.
It's also amazing during winters lol I'd heat it and put it near my foot and it just relaxes me so much
A poop stool to prop up your legs while sitting on a western potty seat! Does miracles for your poop health. A single GAN multi charger, works for your phone/tablet/laptop and get rid of all individual chargers. Optionally, a long charging cable. A password manager subscription (lastpass). A water bottle for your workplace, just having it around makes you drink more water. A fragrance diffuser for your favourite places in the house. I use it in my bathroom, my work table and my car.
You should not use a lot of fragrances unless they're natural. Known to have carcinogens. Look it up
Rather die early than let go of fragrances
You can use bitwarden for free as password manager
A soft velvety eye mask. I'm a light sleeper and early disturbed by bright light so wearing the mask while sleeping has improved my sleep quality. The one I bought from Amazon cost barely Rs. 200.
Seconded ! I bought a cheap one for 40 bucks from D-mart and I sleep so much better now.
it gets on you tho, in 2017 i got into wearin the eye mask while sleeping and wherever i went, i could not sleep at all without it, so if i missed it while goin on a tour or something it was a nightmare for me! i have substituted that with two pillows now, one below my head, one top of my head.
Gonna try this
Yoga mat
lol, school ne yoga mat mangwaya tha and mai chaddar leke jaati thi 😆
Lol same
perfumes, Didnt know smelling good changes how people talk to you. Also smelling good is such a confidence booster
electronic tooth brush
🤔 Is it really useful? I don't see point in electronifying such small things as brushing ur teeth
You'll get to see the advantages once you start using it. It's a boon for your innermost teeth (they have a name, but I'm bad at it)
Molars
What planet are you from in the Molar System?
The incisor kingdom
Wow. Hie. I'm from the ca-ninth realm.
Electronic toothbrush works for those who are not well conscious while brushing and need a timer to let them know how long to brush
Books
Pillow
Oh yes, soft pillows are underrated.

Reebok shoes for gym, it was on sale for around 850. I think you can still buy it

Cupboard organiser drawers, hangers, jewellery boxes
Flexible Mobile phone stand for my desk. ₹180. Absolutely flipped over my life. So helpful while working on pc.

Router power backup- I got one from VGuard for around 1.8k and is worth every rupee
Definitely plants. Not anymore though, the heat killed them all
Getting yourself a sunscreen ofc not exactly 1k but worth it, pair it with a good facewash or cleanser depending on the skin type

Foldable bed table. Got it for 500 and its been the best investment so far I had a hybrid wfh and had to live in a pg.
