Character is not formed out of smart people: it is formed out of people who have suffered.”

Fast action, and hard conversations early, changes the trajectory of everything for the better.

Avoidance creates chaos. It breaks things.
It eats people & organizations alive from the inside out.

You want peace, alignment & momentum?
Confront every problem early.

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

Never believe what people tell you, watch what they do.
Look at the evidence.

This is just as true in relationships, as it is in business.

People say a lot of things, but consistent actions (over a long period of time) are what always tells the tale.

[Ray Dalio @RayDalio]

If you can do that, you will take the power of your decision making to a whole other level. In many cases, you will be able to test how that principle would have worked in the past or in various situations that will help you refine it, and in all cases, it will allow you to compound your understanding to a degree that would otherwise be impossible. It will also take emotion out of the equation. Algorithms work just like words in describing what you would like to have done, but they are written in a language that the computer can understand. If you don’t know how to speak this language, you should either learn it or have someone close to you who can translate for you. Your children and their peers must learn to speak this language because it will soon be as important or more important than any other language. #principleoftheday

All these principles, rules, and checks and balances won't be worth much if you don't have capable people in positions of power who instinctually want to operate for the good of the community based on the agreed-upon principles. A company's leaders must have wisdom, competence, and the ability to have close, cooperative, and effective working relationships characterized by both thoughtful disagreement and commitment to following through with whatever the ideameritocratic process decides. #principleoftheday

One of Charlie Munger's most powerful messages, is to avoid needing luck, by "stacking the odds" in your favor.

People complain about others being "lucky," but be the person who doesn't need luck at all.

@SymoneBeez Taking nothing personally is such a cheat code to getting where you want to go.

Mark Manson was right when he said:

“Beware: learning more is a smart person’s favorite form of procrastination.”

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Major cheat code for life: Always assume things will work out, then do the work to make it true. It’s a mindset of active optimism. Earned faith. It creates a quiet confidence that allows you to tolerate the uncertainty of life better than anything else.

One pattern I find useful for working with LLMs is a nice long ramble session. Sometimes the LLM needs more bits to understand what you're trying to achieve, but you're too lazy to type them. In these cases I like to lean back, switch to /voice and just ramble for like 10 minutes, total mess, anything goes, full stream of consciousness. Sometimes I declare it up top, something like "switching to speech recognition sorry for any typos...". Sometimes I turn it into a small interview of a few turns. But I find that the LLMs are somehow very good at reconstructing long incoherent rambles and often their echo of your own tangle of thoughts comes out quite a bit cleaner than what you started with. The result is that you improve the mind meld and have to correct things less from that point on.

Everyone knows that playing by the rules 100% puts you in the slow lane in life.

If you want something to kickstart your week ahead, and have you thinking differently.

Bend your mind, and break your training a bit...
