Many of us are continually in pursuit of valuable pieces of knowledge that could aid us in comprehending reality better and taking our lives to the next level, even if only slightly. Nevertheless, tremendous ideas are not just located in ancient books in dark corners of libraries.

You can also come across influential ideas on social media; you just have to know who to track. For example, recently, writer Gurwinder Bhogal, also known as @G_S_Bhogal, became extremely popular after he posted 10 of the most helpful concepts he grasped during the previous year, which helped him comprehend the world better.

"I decided the concepts based on what I found most memorable, as this seemed to be a good indicator of notability," he says. "There were many others that were close to getting into the top 10, such as Audience Capture, Twyman's Law, and the Paradox of Unanimity."

"Writing is as much about teaching myself as teaching others. It's not just that I learn while researching topics to write about; it's that the very act of expressing myself in words teaches me things about myself that I didn't know. I, therefore, see writing as a form of personal growth."

Take a look at these interesting and so true concepts:

It can be very easy for one's voice to be drowned out by the commotion on social media. We were eager to hear Gurwinder's thoughts on how authors can distinguish themselves on Twitter and Substack, as well as what motivates him to continue writing and instructing others.

"Write what you most want to write about rather than what you think other people want to read. This is because, if you're passionate about something, you can make even the most boring subject interesting, but if you're chasing popular trends, you'll be doing the same thing as millions of other writers, while struggling to maintain the interest to consistently create compelling content," he explained that writers ought to be honest with themselves and ignore the crowd. Do what you're passionate about, not what you hope will make you popular.

The modern world is incredibly complex and interconnected, making it difficult for an individual to know where to turn for accurate information. With the prevalence of fake news and misinformation, it is important to carefully vet sources before trusting them.

It is important to look at the qualifications of the source, the reputation of the source, and the evidence given to support the claims made. Additionally, it is important to look at the sources of the source - where did they get their information from?

This can help to ensure that the information being presented is accurate and reliable. Ultimately, it is important to be a critical thinker and to be aware of our own biases when it comes to picking sources to trust.
