I can read anyone but Hemingway. Mf did suicide. His words mean nothing.

by mapping your ideal days out, you'll suddenly realise how much time you actually have and how much is wasted through your own mindless bullshit and that of others around you

black ops, halo, and little league sports. thats what I feel. its crazy to me how you can look at a series of images and feel such a crushing wave of nostalgia. feel yourself in these moments. SWAT! SLAYER! can hear these songs and play the life movie in your head. little snippets of days where you didnt think of the future. the 5 senses uncaged. this is why music is awesome, because it so effortlessly anchors moments in time. nothing else quite like it.

all it takes is publishing that one thing to completely change your life, and by extension, that of countless others.

** 4 Useful Heuristics I Keep Coming Back To — Heuristic #1: Depth Not Breadth A lot of the time, our instinct is to go wider when we’d be better served going deeper. Example 1: You’ve got an eCom brand with a winning hero product and funnel. Instead of going deeper on the hero product, you go wider and try to launch 3 more products. Your team loses focus, hero product suffers, business numbers go down. Example 2: Software. You can always add more features, but often more value accrues from going deeper on the features you already have. — Heuristic #2: Simplifiers > Complicators This one is kind of self-explanatory. Surround yourself with simplifiers and not complicators. Example: You hire someone and ask them to perform a task or achieve a goal. A simplifier figures out the fastest, most efficient way to get the desired outcome. A complicator asks a thousand questions, brings up a dozen what-ifs, and gives you a hundred counterfactuals. You can’t be surrounded by complicators if you want to move fast. — Heuristic #3: The Cream Tends to Rise to the Top This was one of the most memorable pieces of advice my dad gave me back in my early 20s. I was complaining about how my job didn’t have a lot of mobility for me. He told me: “In my experience, the cream tends to rise to the top.” Sounds simple, but I think about it often. Example: I found myself saying these words to my own 8-year-old daughter this month after she felt frustrated that she wasn’t getting specific opportunities on her travel softball team. I explained that as long as she keeps putting in the work (which she is), the opportunities will come. It’s the same in business and entrepreneurship. — Heuristic #4: Comparison is the Thief of Joy This might be the heuristic that’s been coming to mind most of all lately. Example 1: StefanBrain. It might be surprising, but I spend virtually zero time thinking about my “competition.” In fact, I’d have a hard time even telling you who my “competitors” are. The reason for this is not that I don’t pay attention to what’s going on. Rather, it’s because I’m less focused on what competitors are doing and more focused on what we’re doing. I’m focused on our vision, not theirs. Example 2: I regularly speak with DTC operators who feel bothered by the fact that some competitor is bigger than them or doing more revenue than them. To me, that’s just obviously wasted energy. You’d be much better served spending that energy on growing your own business instead of worrying about what they’re doing. —

why is it that the people who fear death the most are usually the ones living the least?

Ooh what's that book, the red one, first from the right

WHAT ??

you need to be running a personal knowledge base if you’re remotely serious about getting the most out of AI. doesn’t need to be a gargantuan 20000 note turbo autist setup, even 100 well written notes wired up properly makes a huge difference
