1/ @naval thank you for recommending The Beginning of Infinity by @DavidDeutschOxf. Below is my take on the epistemology presented in his book. The book is fantastic, I will read it many more times and it already has changed my thinking.
At the end of the day nobody cares about you. The higher you get the more people want you to fall. You won’t prove them wrong with a cool car you don’t own or some chrome hearts or a rented penthouse that’s not even a penthouse. Nobody cares. Prove them wrong with a giant…
Ben Horowitz literally explains how he differentiates between mediocre CEOs & great CEOs.
It will work if you keep pushing. It will be frustrating. Very frustrating. There will be few signs of hope. Nobody will understand what or why you're doing it. Most walk away. Most find security, comfort, validation. But if you keep pushing, nature will give you what you…
When Charlie Munger was in 30s -his wife divorced him, took his house -he went bankrupt -his 9YO son died of lukemia in his arm -he lost an eye, docs removed his eye w/o anesthesia -he lived in a dingy apartment and drove a run down car. Yet, he didn’t let hardship define his…

Most chase comfort: "safe" jobs, weekends off, “work life balance.” The 1%? Chase freedom: assets, equity, leverage, compounding. Freedom is earned once and then compounds for life (earning in your sleep). The cost? Avoiding the safe route and embracing performance vs. hours
The devil doesn’t rob you, he tempts you. He buys your dreams for glitter and dust. He has no use for your soul, but by taking his offer, you give yours away. And you have no one to blame but yourself.
"In my experience as CEO, I found that the most important decisions tested my courage far more than my intelligence." - Ben Horowitz
working theory: the secret to life is having an investment in the future. starting a movement. having a child. joining a moonshot. mentoring someone. tackling existential risk. it forces you out of the radical individualism popular today, and into the collective duty we all need.
"It is said that the best horses lose when they compete with slower ones and win against better rivals. Undercompensation from the absence of a stressor,inverse hormesis, absence of challenge, degrades the best of the best." - Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Balaji Srinivasan on what he looks for in the founders he backs “You’re really looking for people who are very fast, very resourceful, very positive… And obviously high intelligence, work ethic, all that type of stuff, but I think the positivity thing [is really important].”…
Ernest Hemingway once wrote: "The hardest lesson I’ve had to learn as an adult is the relentless need to keep going, no matter how shattered I feel inside."
