I have grown up in SV my entire life. I know many of the guys who built the computer revolution going back to the 1960s. For decades. Countless old guy back in the day stories I have sat and listened.
I say this with zero reservation, Chamath and his contemporaries consumed the culture of Silicon Valley to get rich.
Did they “pass it on”? Mentor? Build stuff for fun? Contribute to the community? No, nothing.
They did nothing but take. They are takers. And therefore are losers.
Chamath is a loser. And if you met him, you’d know that he knows it too.
Chamath says Silicon Valley lost what made it great and only cares about money now
"Silicon Valley has completely lost what made it great. It was a place for weirdos, for people at the fringes, for people that really were idealistic. And it has become something that's far from that now. It is the equivalent of what Harvard used to be. It's a credentialing place."
"When we came, we used to aspire to meet the Bill Campbells of the world, Mike Moritz, John Doerr. Those folks are gone. We used to aspire to work for Steve Jobs. He's not here."
"And in that breach, all we have done is focused on making money in every single way that we can, hand over fist. And there's nothing wrong with that. Except now it’s at a point where we need to do a better job of acknowledging it and trying to do a little bit better.”
“Every time we don't, and we're given a chance to be better, and we're not, the hatred builds, the animus builds. And that's what we're seeing now."
Intelligent people live a boring life. They go to bed at 10. Wake up at 6. Eat simple foods. Go for long walks. Read thick books. Say no to things that drain them. The world chases excitement. But they chase calm. Things that align with their soul. A calm routine. A quiet mind. A healthy body. Meaningful work. A small circle. A private life. Their life may look boring from the outside. But from the inside, they experience a kind of freedom most people spend their entire lives searching for.

Charlie Munger:
“The secret to life is easy because it's so simple:
You don’t have a lot of envy or resentment. You don’t overspend your income. You stay cheerful in spite of your troubles. You deal with reliable people and you do what you’re supposed to do.”

One of my favorite Steve Jobs quotes...
“A small team of A+ players can run circles around a giant team of B and C players.”
How to tell A players from B & C players:
- they get more done in less time
- they make the people around them better
- they bring better solutions than what you have
- they make quick decisions without needing permission
- they hold themselves to a higher bar than anyone else would
One A-player is worth more than three B or C players combined.

Greatest quote from the book:
“Until death, all defeat is psychological.”

The older we get, the faster life seems to move.
This is known as Janet’s Law.
Ironically, investing is the same.
In the beginning, progress feels painfully slow. Your contributions do almost all the work.
But as your portfolio grows, compounding takes over and 'decades' of progress can happen in just a few years.

I'm convinced the ability to smile through chaos is a legitimate competitive advantage. It's a rare trait. When most people get tight, a few get loose. They thrive on it. They actually enjoy it. I'd never bet against the person smiling like a psycho as they enter the storm.

Ultimate life hack: deciding you can just wake up one day and say "not doing that again" and completely change your life.

If you're 90 on your deathbed and you get to go back and relive 1 memory before perishing, playing catch with your 4 yr old would be more appealing than sitting alone with coffee. So when your 4 yo asks to play catch, just say to yourself you're 90, you went back in time for this

My entire life changed when I realized that nobody was thinking about me.
It completely rewired my brain.
I wonder how many extraordinary people waste their lives fearing the judgement of people who were never even thinking about them in the first place. Fearing a spotlight that was never even on. Performing for an audience that was never even there.
Because the truth is that you aren't afraid of failure. At least not really. You're afraid of other people seeing you fail. You're afraid of what they'll think of you.
But nobody is thinking about you. Everybody's too busy thinking about themselves.
So, that thing you've always wanted to do? Just go do it.

What you do in private always shows in public. Reading shows in conversations. Your workouts show in your physique. Your diet shows in your energy. Your discipline shows in your confidence. Your focus shows in your results. You are what you cultivate when no one is watching.

I’m convinced that intelligence is overrated.
Intelligent people are more likely to overthink, overplan, and overanalyze. They hide behind motion that doesn't create progress. They fear the judgment of others if they're proven wrong.
The truth is that intelligence is abundant. Especially now. AI is making it a commodity. Courage is not. And it can’t be replaced. The people you admire are the ones who had the courage to act. They aren’t more talented than you. They aren’t smarter than you. They just took action when you didn’t.
I often wonder how many extraordinary people wasted their entire lives waiting for permission that never came. Permission isn't granted. Permission is taken. You get to tap yourself in whenever you want. You can just do things.
Courage beats intelligence. Remember that.

I run a $1,000,000+ cleaning company 100% remotely.
And I franchise my system to 25+ franchisees.
Each paying a 6% royalty fee.
Which is funny, because people HATE royalty fees.
Until they see what it buys them…👀
Here's what you get when you buy into a franchise:👇👇
