Principles
- Bite off more than you can chew, and figure out how to chew it.
- "If you're not overtly aggressive about representing yourself, they'll just assume it's not real." - Alex Karp
- Neuroplasticity is your unfair advantage in your 20's. If you're saying "I lack experience," you're wasting the one advantage you'll never get back. Everything you want is learnable. you just need to hustle.
- Ask yourself, "If I had 10x the agency I have today, what would I do?"
- "It's better to be a person that people think ill or well of than be someone nobody thinks of at all." - Palmer Luckey
- Growth and progress are directly proportional to the unpredictability of events, aka risks. The more unpredictable your events are in life, the more risk you're taking and the more you're growing. Vice versa.
- You'll never stand out trying to fit in.
- You have limited fucks to give in this world. Don't waste them on stupid things and useless people. Life is too short. Protect your fucks at all costs.
- the easiest way to hate yourself is doing what others tell you to do when you never truly believed in it. value your opinion 100x more than others and learn to think for yourself.
- Courage has superlinear returns.
- Time is all you have, and you're already running out. money will come and go, time will only go. call for take-out instead of cooking, run instead of walking. move fast and brutally protect your time. your parents are not getting any younger, and neither are you. wasted time is one of the most common regrets of a man on a dying bed.
