Weekly NishIsHere! – Issue #79


♣ Thought of the Week

◘ Are you destroying your focus?

The moment I keep my phone away from me, not even in my sight, my focus increases. Practice this multiple times, and keep your phone in another room when you are working on important tasks. You will see what I am talking about.


♣ Tech

◘ Could Humans Hibernate?

Ever wondered why humans can’t hibernate? I thought about this in my childhood. Imagine if we could live for hundreds of years. This video tried to find the answer.

To endure brutal winters, nature has developed astonishing survival tactics, with none more bizarre than hibernation. There isn’t just one type of hibernation, and research into these various ways life slows down in the cold could potentially pave the way for humans to become an interplanetary species someday.


♣ Creator Economy

◘ Asking College Students to Paint THEIR Bedroom

Marko, the creator, asked college students for permission to enter their dorm rooms and customize something inside. This proved to be more challenging than anticipated, but it was a lot of fun to watch the video!


♣ Pop Culture

◘ The Christian Bale Paradox

You absolutely need to check out this awesome Creator Biography Breakdown video on Christian Bale’s incredible career. This take a serious deep dive into the life of the actor known for those super-intense roles in legendary films like Batman, American Psycho, The Machinist, and The Prestige. Want the inside scoop on the guy behind all those classic characters? Seriously, have you ever actually watched a Christian Bale interview?


♣ Business

◘ 5 Steps to Start Your First Business

Creator Ali Abdaal interviewed Daniel Priestley in this video, a super successful entrepreneur, on his podcast Deep Dive. During our conversation, he laid out a 5-step plan for how anyone can start their first business.

In this video:
