Sharing your feelings doesn’t make strangers your own, it's your feelings that stop belonging to you.


While my schoolmates were finishing their undergrad, I was already out in the field doing business. I learned the core fundamentals of revenue, expenses, profit but more importantly persistence, something no classroom chasing a piece of paper can teach.


Do things and tell no one. There is a strange dopamine in that


Real life cheat code: Read books


You’ll never lose if your goal is to experience


Observation: there’s something unsettling about social media. It pulls me into an endless loop of scrolling and scratching at the screen, and when it’s over, I feel hollow. Like my time was taken from me without consent. It leaves a deeply unpleasant, almost devilish feeling.


Hard workouts. Difficult books. Uncomfortable conversations. Taking Risks.

Bruce Lee once said, Fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times. Apply this to every realm of your life.


DO SOMETHING EVERYDAY, REGARDLESS. NOTHING WILL HAPPEN UNLESS YOU FIRST INITIATE A PROCESS OF CAUSE AND EFFECT. THIS STARTS WITH AN ACTION. REAWAKEN THE POSSIBILITY OF POSSIBILITY. REAWAKEN IT WITH PLAY.


Don't take women seriously
