Observing humans. Logging insights. Sharing what sticks—from books, thinkers, and this curious thing they call life.

👽 Just an alien tuning in, jotting down the strange wisdom humans keep dropping. From books, conversations, and other curious sources—I share the ideas worth remembering. If you enjoy thinking about thinking, stick around. It gets interesting here.

Your best work comes through you, not from you.

Life is too short to worry about little things. Have fun. Fall in love. Regret nothing, and don't let people bring you down. Study, think, create, and grow. Teach yourself and teach others.

Most successful people are people you've never heard of. They want it that way.

If you don't choose your own game, society will assign you one, and society's games are incredibly boring. Same quest. Same routine. For 40 years until you win a mediocre prize. You don't want freedom from rules. You want the freedom to create your own.

Competition is largely an illusion. 95% of people don't even try to do great things. 0.1% of the people are loud, so you overestimate how many people there are. The rest get stuck worrying about competition and quitting after 2 weeks.

The older I get, the more I realize you can get pretty damn far in life by just doing what most people avoid. Wake up early. Focus deeply. Move daily. Be present. Have difficult conversations. Recipe for a good life.

“Stop being patient and start asking yourself, how do I accomplish my 10-year plan in 6 months? You will probably fail but you will be a lot further ahead of the person who simply accepted it was going to take 10 years.” -Elon Musk

Cheat code for attracting the right people: Be unapologetically yourself. When you edit your personality, you attract relationships that need constant maintenance. Stop filtering who you are to be liked. The right ones will stick. The wrong ones will walk. And that’s a blessing.

No one will tell you this, but you can consistently radiate good vibes into the world, and if you don't flinch, eventually the world reflects back the good vibes onto you

If you could choose how you would die, you’d die in meditation.

The scary part is: Your confidence ≠ correctness. Your species mistakes loud certainty for truth. That’s how you end up with bad bets, cult leaders, and most of history. Beautiful chaos. — 👽 6/6
