I think possibly the best thing about Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire is how angry it makes a bunch of losers who've never built a thing in their lives.

Been brushing up on the discourse and I’ve decided that every single person is richer than me is a greedy bastard and every single person poorer than me is a loser. I and only I have the exact right amount of money.

Describe how playing it 'cool' at the expense of achieving your ambitions has improved your life in any way. [ 3 marks ]

This has been ruminating in my head lately.

the most rebellious thing you can do in a world that profits from your insecurity is wake up every day and genuinely like yourself.

Lock yourself in a room and study until you collapse, true brilliance comes from obsession. —Issac Newton

What would it look like if you brought an Olympic level of intensity and focus toward your goals? Athletes do this naturally. They work out every day, stick to the same routine, watch film, track their progress, manage their diet, and obsess over marginal improvements. Nobody thinks that's weird. That's what it takes to compete at the highest level. But for some reason, when it comes to writing, comedy, entrepreneurship, or really any other field, we don't hold ourselves to the same standard. We show up when we feel like it, wing it, and then wonder why we're not getting better.

Kanye West locked himself in his room, making five beats a day for three summers straight. Sit in your room and create, and eventually you'll be invited into new rooms.

Of course you are struggling to sleep. You have betrayed yourself from the moment you woke up. Face your mess.

You don't go into the grocery store for no reason and walk out with nothing but without realizing it, this is what you're doing on social media every day. The only way to defend yourself against brainrot is to have an objective every single time you get on the apps. Get on to learn something, read something specific, generate ideas, write something. Make the grocery list, get in, get out. Close the app having taken something away. This is as good as it gets.

If you continue to waste your days now, you have no reason to worry about maintaining yourself for the future. You do nothing with your intelligence, nothing with your beauty, nothing with your time. If you don't make use of your gifts now, what are you even preserving them for? To continue doing nothing in the future? This is the miserable irony of the hoarder. Always collecting; concerned about loss; anxious over expiration. In the end, they realise they held it all. But because they never used it – it was as good as nothing.

Ppl will misread your sentence because they can't read and then tell you to take accountability for how it made them feel because they can't read

For f*ck sake. Be optimistic. Be extreme. Be relentless. The world is waiting for you to raise the bar and finally go all in. Execute. Inspire. Show us what’s possible.

You gotta be putting like 10x shots on net compared to what you’re currently doing. Most people take one shot every few years. To run up the score you should be putting up 2-3 shots a day minimum. At the end of each year you’ve shot thousands of shots while most people did nothing. It’s a numbers game. Your shooting percentage can be horrible and you’ll still lap everyone. Gotta score to win. Gotta shoot to score. Shoot more.

I'd rather be a failure than a coward.

saw an inspiring video that said you need to have 4 hobbies. create, consume, cavort, commune create: bring something to life consume: appreciate the art of another cavort: move your body daily commune: have a community to socialize with

The human brain isn’t designed to process all of the world’s breaking emergencies in realtime.

I think one of the biggest differences between high agency and low agency people is this: High agency people believe reality can be negotiated with.

if you think uncomfortable conversations are hard wait until you see the results of not having them

upon Doing The Thing, you will invariably find two things to be true: 1. Doing The Thing was pretty easy, actually 2. not having Done The Thing was bothering you more than you thought it was
