A simple cheat code for life is to just be easy to work with.

Respond quickly. Do what you said you'd do. Be pleasant.

An alarming number of people suck at all of this.

@dimitrigeier @DRUDGE is total garbage now. This Tesla was being driven by a drunk 27 year old male who was not using FSD

Your first business isn't about becoming mega successful.

It isn't about changing the world.

Take "scale" out of your vocabulary.

Your first business should be about building up your operational skills, network and capital.

Start something that is low-risk. Something where you can study other companies that do exactly what you want to be doing so that you can learn.

One where you don't need to serve 1000 customers to make good money, you just need a small piece of the pie.

One where you can make low-stakes decisions and practice.

One where you can make a ton of simple mistakes but still survive.

Then, later, when you're better and you have more skills, capital, and a larger network, you can go bigger with your next at bat.

This is just a much better way to go.

[Dr. Greg McKeown @GregoryMcKeown]

The most influential people I know have one thing in common:

They do less and they make you feel like more.

Years ago I noticed a pattern in the people whose rooms I wanted to be in.

-They weren't the loudest.
-They weren't the busiest.
-They weren't trying to be interesting.

They were essential, in everything they did, and in everyone they gave attention to.

They said no to almost everything, so their yes meant something.

Not just to projects. To people, too.

When they were with you, they were only with you.

-No phone glancing.
-No half-listening while planning their next sentence.

That kind of presence is rare. Rare things are valuable.

They talked less about themselves and asked more about you.

The worst decision you can make as a parent is get a pitbull or let your children get near a pitbull.

Single woman and need to protect your home in a shit neighborhood? Sure, get one.

Have any valuable humans nearby?

Idiotic move.

The most important message I can give to young folks just entering the workforce:

NOBODY WANTS TO HIRE YOU.

You don't have any or many real skills yet.

You will require significant investment (both time and money) before you can add serious value to a company.

You can't lead other people and you are a poor delegator.

College has done virtually nothing to turn you into an asset to a company.

So what now?

Realize one thing:

Your job is to make a company more profit than they pay you.

It is up to you to build skills that can create profit for a company.

Easy ones:

- Learn how to write/speak and be a short and succinct communicator.
- Learn to respond quickly and develop a positive, high energy attitude.
- Learn how to prioritize tasks and only work on the most valuable initiatives first
- Learn how to be organized and keep projects moving in a timely manner
- Be eager to learn and demand more work when you're finished with what you're working on.

Harder ones:

- Learn a higher level skill (marketing, sales, engineering, finance, accounting, web design, etc)
- Learn how to manage / lead other people.
-Practice making decisions where the outcome is unknown and getting better at it.
- Learn how to explain WHY what you are doing is adding value.

Take it upon yourself to learn these things or just get in line for mediocrity.

There are two types of CPAs:

CPAs who think like they work for you.

CPAs who think they work for the IRS.

Choose wisely!

It's NOT improving. My wife & daughter are stuck in the airport right now & no one will answer them or help them get to the hotel or on a bus. All the @Delta employees have left and there's nowhere to get food or water. The situation is actually getting worse. @CNN @FoxNews
