I didn't reach my athletic peak until I was 43.
I didn't write my first book until I was 44.
I didn't start my podcast until I was 45.
At 30, I thought my life was over.
At 52 I know it's just beginning.
Keep running. Never give up. And watch your kite soar.

Top 10 insights from @AndrewYang on phone addiction:
1. Smartphones meet the clinical definition of addiction, not just a bad habit
2. Willpower fails because you cannot quit phones, you need them daily
3. The urge to check = discomfort avoidance, not importance
4. You check your phone ~200 times a day, about every 6 minutes
5. Social media is engineered to trigger you, not inform you
6. AI and phones are quietly degrading memory, focus, and problem solving
7. Even having a phone visible reduces trust in conversations
8. “Productivity” scrolling is just socially acceptable distraction
9. Social norms beat self-control, groups change behavior faster than individuals
10. The simplest fix: do not sleep with your phone in the same room
If you can reclaim even a fraction of your focus right now, you are ahead of most people

For those new to Nick, I sat down with him a few months ago. This is his story:

New #60Minutes chief Nick Bilton says he wants the program to be more prevalent on mobile screens:
“The show is on the air one day, one night, one hour a week, and to me there is an incredible opportunity to take the show and do a lot of things with it.”
