[The Kobeissi Letter @KobeissiLetter]

BREAKING: The European Central Bank officially hikes interest rates by 25 basis points, citing renewed inflation amid the Iran War.

This marks the first major central bank interest rate hike since 2023.

Rate hikes are officially back.

Confidencemaxxing.

[GRITCULT @GRITCULT]

Learn to confidencemaxxx and watch reality bend your way. Winners act like winners. This is your sign to start believing in yourself. This is your sign to start becoming delusionally confident in yourself and the fact that it will all work out.

false productivity is a bitch. very easily to fall into that trap.

[The Boring Marketer @boringmarketer]

new models are cool. but remember:

- building a company is still hard
- growing a company is even harder
- ai can create false productivity
- you still have to talk to customers
- you still have to have taste and think outside the box
- you still have to solve real problems for real people (not the ai bubble)
- you can hallucinate that you will be a billionaire in 6 months
- you still need to make $1 first with ai
- there are millions of people and businesses who hardly know how to use chatgpt
- we are so early
- you need to narrow your focus, then narrow further
- you should ship something before you start working on the next thing
- find a team who supports you
- touch grass
- have fun with fable 5!

Finanzminister Marterbauer behauptet, dass die Unternehmer die hohe Inflation verursacht hätten. Aus reiner Profitgier. Steile These. #Budgetrede

@jackfriks Quick question mate: I posted photos via post-bridge on LinkedIn, it shows in the feed but without photos and can't find the post on my page posts site.. pretty odd. But when I click on the post via post-bridge I can locate it.. but without photos. Insta worked tho.

Can‘t agree more.

[GREG ISENBERG @gregisenberg]

When I first became a dad I was genuinely worried my career would suffer.

The opposite happened. 3 things changed that I wasn't expecting.

First, a child cuts the filler from your life instantly.

I used to sit at my desk for 14 hours and feel like I was crushing it when in reality maybe 4 of those hours were actual work and the rest was meetings that didn't need to happen, scroll sessions I told myself were research, and "quick calls" that turned into 90 minutes of nothing. A child deletes all of that overnight.

Because you literally don't have the time anymore. Every hour matters in a way it didn't before. You could be with your kid, working on your startup, exercising, having dinner with your wife, sleeping. When your time is actually full of things you care about, the filler can't survive. I'm shipping more now than before my kid was born. Half the meetings. Faster decisions.

I stopped saying yes to things out of politeness because my time has a very real cost now that I can feel in my bones.

Second, your risk tolerance goes up, not down.

Everyone assumes having a kid makes you play it safe. For me it created this urgency to build something real while my kid is young enough to not remember the hard parts. That urgency is more useful than any productivity system I've ever tried.

Third, your thinking just gets clearer.

I don't know how else to explain it. You stop deliberating for days and just make the call. You stop chasing every opportunity and only chase the ones that actually excite you.

Something about being responsible for another human being gives you this filter that cuts through the noise instantly. Before my kid, I'd go back and forth on a decision for a week. Now I make it by lunch and move on.

I used to think having a kid was the thing I'd do after I built the company. Turns out the kid made me better at building the company. Wish someone had told me that sooner. So I'm telling you.

I know this sounds like something a new dad says to justify it. I thought the same thing when other dads told me. Then it happened to me and I understood.

I think you will too.

I think the challenge is that everyone can now build apps

But

1) almost nobody has distribution (like an audience), or

2) the money to pay for distribution (ads or UGC), or

3) the creative genius to get distribution for free (classically called guerilla marketing)
