# How to be successful in so much noise? – Simply being yourself is key.

Post by Aditya Gaurav (@AdityaGaurav)

Glance all around you online, everyone’s onto something flashy, showing their perfect lives, perfect jobs, perfect outings, and vacations etc. Everything is good, however perhaps it’s just 1% of their life in form of highly filtered posts, shown to you to make themselves appear better and hide the 1000 different (good and bad) things going behind the scenes to make that 1 good post happen.

To understand difference between noise and signal, we have to first accept on a mutual understanding of what noise and signal means in the first place. Most of trends, cheap dopamine farming videos, brainrot, labubus, comparison of humans, derogatory influence, low quality human behavior, acting selfish, etc. is noise. Signal is peace, reading books, spending quality quiet time in private with loved ones, helping people without expecting in return for whom you care about, having integrity for the people who trust you, being honest, being low ego, etc.

Anything that increases your life’s value, relationship, status or career = Not noise.
Trends, brainrot, doom-scroll, trash-talking, gossips etc. (sure you can do if you want. I classify that as = Noise.)

I’ve heard this couple of times, but I keep on reiterating this in my mind, no matter how big, vast or widened my network of influence or power becomes. I always say this, “the more simple needs I have the faster I can move.”
