In my teens and 20's I would spend way too much time playing Starcraft and Civilization. Harvesting resources, building things, and expanding was super addictive to my brain - to an almost unhealthy degree.
Later I realized that entrepreneurship and business is the ultimate game. It scratches the same itch for me (resources, building, expanding), but you're actually contributing to humanity at the end of the day, which can be much more fulfilling.
Business is also much more positive sum than video games. In Starcraft, the other player has to lose for you to win. In business, there is competition, but in a growing market there can be multiple winners. And gains compound long term (it's a infinite game) instead of starting over each time.
Now days I prefer to watch pros play video games to unwind, instead of playing video games myself. But a quick game can still be fun here and there to unwind. By contrast, the game of business is played over many decades.

o sea los boomers con sus lingotes hicieron más plata en 24 horas que nosotros en meses de "revolución financiera"

@sixtocristiani No, no sería mejor. Estás partiendo de la idea de que Mar del Plata es una ciudad caribeña tropical que hace 30º todo el año para ir a la playa, acá la playa se disfruta como mucho 3 meses. El resto del año tenes un frío que te raja el ojete
My best advice is to stop using motivation as your only fuel. I know it feels great when you’re fired up, but it’s a short-term fuel source. That’s why the vast majority of people who start anything - diet, fitness, new projects - don’t finish. They run out of gas.
The only lasting fuel is routine. And you only get a routine by dragging yourself on the days when you have no motivation. Over and over.
I know that’s not the answer anyone wants. I wish I had a magic pill for you. But the only thing that works long term is showing up for yourself even when you don’t want to. Brute force.
I’m slightly crazy and don’t have any investors or consultants to listen to, so I’m giving people 50 dollars of their 100 dollar annual subscription back when they show up for themselves and complete a full program in my app. If that motivates you to start, it’s designed to build your routine to keep you going like it has for thousands of other people, so join us: https://t.co/7hmVrdc2Gp
WHY are markets crashing? Our logical explanation:
There is quite literally only ONE headline that can even be partially blamed for such a sudden market crash.
At 11:20 AM ET, the US Labor Department said the November and October employment "situation" will be released on December 16th.
By this point, the S&P 500 was already down -70 points from its high seen at 10:30 AM ET.
However, in the 40 minutes after this announcement, the S&P 500 crashed another -120 points.
We now know that the Fed is effectively entering another interest rate decision with an economic data blackout.
Markets do NOT like information asymmetry.
But, is this really enough to erase nearly -$2 trillion in market cap in a matter of minutes? In our view, this was just the "switch" that shifted sentiment. The reality is that investors are on edge in this market.
When a sudden decline begins, investors rush to the exit because the "bubble is popping." This works in the opposite direction as well.
When stocks surge, the rally accelerates quickly as capital rotates back into AI stocks, because "AI is the next big thing."
The reality is that we now live in a market where ANY headline can drive trillions of dollars of market cap in a matter of minutes for one sole reason:
Sentiment is more polarized than ever.
