You have to restrain from doing something today that will make you happy in the immediate term. Or you have to do something much harder than the productive things you will kinda automatically do today.

But if you do one of those and it’s meaningful to you, you will feel better at the end of the day. Do it all week and you will start to feel like your life is changing. Do it for a month and you will be a different person.

Make before you manage. - Tim Ferriss For the last week or so, I’ve been “drawing” first thing in the morning. I picked my favorite thing to draw (since I was a kid). And just did it. Now I’m sharing. It’s called The Empire State Building on 10/17/24.

Psychologists use a term called "pluralistic ignorance" to describe the phenomenon of "no one believes, but everyone thinks that everyone believes." (h/t @AdamMGrant) Here's a way to visualize it:

I truly feel the biggest obstacle to onboard masses to NFTs is the cost barrier. To spend $200-$500 just in gas, (to even remotely participate), on Ethereum is way too much for the average person. Especially international.
As someone who is now living this, I think this graph must be skewed by NYC, SF, etc. I do think this is true in Detroit or Midwest.
This graph is alarming. Working while raising a child is becoming untenable.

There is probably no picture which better encapsulates modern western culture than a woman standing on her car and taking a smiley selfie as it sinks into an icy river
Replying to @CFRAOttawa
She captured the moment with a selfie while people hurried and worried to help her. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Saw this first hand going and forth from India 2009-11. Was hard to believe and process at the time. Or know what to do with it. Looks obvious now tho because each place has continued its trajectory. I still wouldn’t have moved to India (vs. staying stateside) but lesson learned.
India is indisputably much safer than America. The infrastructure has improved *dramatically* over the last ten years and the internet works. Photos will always be accused of being cherry picked, but the respective rates of ascent (and, unfortunately, descent) are palpable.
Just had a call with someone on Forbes 30 under 30 list and came away really impressed. He shared with me how he made VP at a top tech company before age 30: 1. 4:30 AM wakeup 2. Cold showers 3. Gratitude journal 4. Meditate 5. Dad owns tech company

Legendary artist @nas is allowing fans to purchase royalty rights in his music today through the @join_royal platform. The demand was so strong that the website crashed. The world is changing at an incredible pace.
