Consistent Productivity at SS

In today's era of self-help books and online "gurus", words like Consistent Productivity are overloaded & hacked, meaning different things to different people.

What enables Consistency according to us?

For us, Consistency means two things - Optimal (not maximal) and Sustainable. Also, Optimizing doesn't HAVE to mean compromising. Sustainability matters as nothing worth achieving comes without investing significant time & effort.

What is Optimal and why does it matter?

Extreme efficiency needs to go hand in hand with making progress on getting our results effectively ( with least effort). And at the SAME time, we ought to balance our overall Well-being (mental, emotional, social, physical, & financial).

What's Sustainability in this context?

It's a product of harboring an attitude that is truly practical & at least "good enough" if not excellent to get us to our results at the same time. We believe that there's a synergy between Sustainability and nurturing Rationally Optimistic ambitions.

What professionals say they like about SS

Feedback on our live Zoom Sessions from POWER & Workshops

POWER was a life-altering expedition for myself, well placed and aligned within my endeavor to understand everything about how to live efficiently. Crossing boundaries of my expectations, it gave me well-researched insights into every facet of human existence, with a sense of immense practical utility that is hard to find anywhere. The team's combined hours of rigorousness outweighed everything I had known in the first few minutes of each session. It also hosts unique accountability measures and other assistant programs that help you track and judge your progress in a scientific manner. It's a unique step towards a new world of pedagogy.

@Aakarsh Rastogi, Deep RL Reseatcher@Genpact

The fact that on most days it gives me something to think about before going to bed. At least on some days, I like the rigour and the depth of the content.

@Vighnesh Hegde, Researcher @Samsung

Variety of options that this gives us to improve. The organization of information, thorough research and rendezvous sheet. Also I got introduced to roam during this period, not directly through this course first, but I would consider it as a positive externality.

@Pabitra Martha, Senior Consultant @PWC

Personally, this is helping me sift through efficiently (without wasting a lot of time/energy in getting lost beneath heaps of 'gyaan' out there) and reorganize basic knowledge while learning key first principles (which are easy to miss out otherwise). The thought behind this program is 'powerful' - to become consistently productive and the comprehensiveness does justice to the basal idea. The content, the order and structure of it, the facilitation - a lot of work has already gone into it as is clearly visible. A solid start.

Community Guidelines : A Safe Enough Space

We believe in Dignity-safe but Intellectually-challenging Growth Environments

Inclusivity

We believe this space is for challenging discussions to create opportunities to learn how to deal more openly with the tension, hostility, and emotionality that occur when confronting biases and prejudices. Participants are encouraged to give reasons for their arguments and conduct truly inclusive conversations.

No Ad-Hominem

Personal attacks on dignity or with malicious intents are of course not entertained. We believe in actively avoiding hostile situations, blanket politically incorrect statements & lashing out. When in doubt Clear Trigger Warnings are also encouraged.

Diversity

We understand everybody has/should have boundaries & their unique communication style. This diversity gives room of misunderstanding & assumptions. Thus, we encourage bringing “seeds of confusions/ implicit assumptions” to the fore and address any misgivings or conflicts at the earliest.

Support

This space is to reflect and analyze ideas, use tools & research with complex, critical thinking while encouraging deeper levels of analysis. Let's show personal support for fellow participants & stand by them during times of Transition and Growth.

Let's weed out what's been bugging you - Together
