Power of Compounding

tl;dr This post is not a financial motivation. It's a different perception to look at the greater mind.

We've heard the term compounding in the finance world. Compounding is key to long-term wealth. If you look at the deeper mechanics, compounding is adding, adding and adding all the smaller portions here and there and there and there. Essentially it's much more than repeated additions (or multiplication).

So, in the end, it refers to the sum of all the smaller parts amounting to a much bigger piece.

This principle also applies to the person you are trying to become. The actions you do daily, constantly all add up. Here is a small analogy to think about. Consider actions as small bags of money you keep saving. When your deeds are focused, constructive and positive it equals saving money. The amount of distraction you admit in your life equals spending that money and spending money early on never contributes to compounding.

The distraction referred to here is not entertainment/travel. No, those are important. Those are planned. I’m actually referring to unplanned distractions from the things you are actually trying to do. Say, a lazy work in your office where you are dragging the timeline for quite a bit. This is a classic example of unfocused/distracted work. It could also be any bad habit that is regular and blocks quite an amount of time in your daily life, such as drinking alcohol or even watching short videos(TikTok/Reels) regularly. Yes, you read that right. Both are surprisingly super comparable. This is you trading your time for dopamine shots. So the time spent here doesn’t contribute to your personal development. It's a waste 100%. I’m not against having small entertainments but giving into them regularly(addiction) will render a portion of your life meaningless. 

Take some time regularly to think about things that have been at the back of your mind for so long. This is super easy and you have to do nothing. Let me tell you how.

Your mind has a lot of stuff to think about. But we keep it constantly distracted. We never get bored. Say, when you go to the restroom, many carry their phones inside to listen to music, which keeps the mind busy. Try not doing it, your mind gets some space to think about the things you’ve been trying to find a solution for. This happens automatically. Just keep the mind less busy at times like this and you’ll find this happening. Don’t take my word for it. Try it out. You’ll find thoughts gushing in your mind in no time. These constructive thoughts will contribute to the compounding effect we are discussing. Find times like these to stop distracting yourself. I will list some here but there are plenty of situations you can come across. Say, swiping the notifications in your phone as soon as you get bored a bit, listening to music for short travels or during work, or watching a tv-series while cooking. We are doing more of this these days. Just do one thing at a time mindfully. 

Now with this, constantly think about what you want to become, achieve and the mind processes it slowly one thing at a time. It’ll offer you solutions from the subconscious over time. This is key to your growth as a person.  Be less distracted. Be bored.

DPx DC AU: Danny learns that he can change his summoning ritual and decides to go chaos mode with it i.e. A viral tiktok trend.

Danny ascends the throne and it's honestly pretty alright as far as new jobs go. He states a few opinions, makes sure no one goes to war and is slowly integrating a community service sentence to Walker's prison. It's not a bad gig, and considering the troves of gold he's now owner of, it doesn't pay too shabby either.

His main problem with the job isn't even his constituents (he likes to think they would vote for him over pariah), it's all these loony death cults! They keep summoning him with Pariah's old cold sign and it's driving him insane- After a very unhelpful smirk by CW, a long study session in GW's library and some help from Ember (she knows drama like no one else) Danny finally has a new summoning ritual.

Of course he swapped out the blood and bone for like, sour gummies and random shit he had in his backpack at the time. A TI-84. And yes, the Latin chant is that one super-fast bit of Rap God preformed to a BTS dance at speed.

But rather than keep this to himself, he gets Sam (who has a thriving plant and protest community following) to record her completing this ritual and Danny being summoned. Why? Cause it was a very specific to Sam skill that they didn't know if people could replicate and it gives Danny some plausible deniability that he tried to make it difficult when CW asks.

Posting it makes it very quickly go viral as people attempt to call it fraudulent but sure enough, Danny is now traveling the world at a moments notice.

Which is great cause it's summer and he's bored in Amity anyway (He's going to change it before he starts university in September, duh), and its even better because the second a lame ass death cult brings him forward to, like, destroy the planet, a slumber party or influencer has already summoned him away. Shit, he even met a few celebrities this way! Plus, turns out that most death cultists aren't able to rap!

Reality hit him pretty hard when he got summoned to an office space that is clearly a base of operations and the summoning spell locked him in. Literally, he has no idea how to get out of this binding spell- Danny definitely hadn't realized that was an option. Taking in the Justice League members in front of him, plus one trench coated menace, Danny groaned for a moment before thinking to ask:

"Wait- Which one of you was able to do Rap God? And the dance? Please tell me someone thought to film that!!"

When Gojo needs a favor from, let’s say, a staff in the grocery store and it’s a man he sends you.

“You’re the one that likes double stuff oreos, why should I ask for it?”

“I already did, he said they haven’t unpacked the shipment yet. Now go and don’t forget to bat your lashes and… can you pull your cleavage down a little bit more?” you slap his hands before he reaches your shirt.

“Hi, excuse me” you approach the staff knowing Gojo is probably spying the conversation, “I couldn’t find the double stuff oreos, is it possible you have some in the back?” the young man looks at you from his kneeled position restocking the bottom shelf, you smile and his mouth remains open for a couple seconds.

You hate when Satoru was right.

“Here, and just so you know he said he had to move a fork lift to reach it” you place the five packets on your boyfriend’s hands.

“Yeah I’m sure he didn’t say that just to impress you” he mocks following you to the frozen aisle.

“They are out of the strawberry ice cream I like” you pout.

Gojo looks around seeing another staff restocking pizzas, this time a young girl. Before you can take the alternative ice cream, your boyfriend removes his sunglasses and places it on your face and brushes a hand through his hair.

“I got this” then he marches to the staff with the confidence that only Gojo Satoru has.

If people can make canonically aromantic characters feel romantic attraction towards others because "aromantic people can still fall in love" then I can headcanon characters who are canonically dating/married be a part of the arospec.

Either that or I make them queerplatonic
