@grok@SawyerMerritt@grok So that means if I buy one from 2019 for lets say 10-12.5K i’ll be able to use this feature? I’m driving like 7-10h a week, will i be able to work on my laptop in this time from now on?
Imagine one drop of water per minute. Every minute, the number of drops doubles.
After 40 minutes, the Johan Cruijff Arena is less than 5% full.
In the next 5 minutes, the entire stadium overflows.
This is the compound effect. Small actions, done consistently, lead to results you don’t see coming, until they’re impossible to stop.
Most people quit in the first 40 minutes.
Every major company writes a 5-year plan.
They break it into annual goals. Break those into quarterly KPIs. Everyone works toward them.
Nobody questions this.
But in our own lives we don’t do it. We overestimate what we can do in a year and underestimate what we can achieve in 5.
You are your own CEO.
Start acting like it.
At 24 I lost my first million-dollar business.
These are the 3 lessons I took from it.
Lesson 1: When it’s foggy you can’t see far, but you can always see a few meters ahead. Focus on those meters. Keep moving.
Lesson 2: Know your numbers. Not just revenue. What is one customer worth? What does it cost to acquire one? What’s your margin? Your cashflow? Without answers to these, you’re flying blind.
Lesson 3: Write down your vision and goals. We had ours taped to the fridge. Anything that didn’t contribute to those goals was a distraction. That’s what drove 100% growth year over year.
Simple. Not easy.
There’s a good chance you’re spending €37,000 a year without knowing it.
Not in money. In the most scarce asset you have: attention and focus.
The average person spends 3.5 hours a day on their phone.
That’s 31 full working weeks a year.
Valued at the average hourly wage in the Netherlands: €37,000.
What could you have built with that time?
Almost everyone who wants to be productive makes this mistake.
They confuse productivity with effectiveness.
Productivity = how much you do.
Effectiveness = doing the right things that move you closer to your goal.
Pete wants to become a barber. So he designs a logo, builds a website, and updates his Instagram bio.
Busy all day. Made €0. Cut nobody’s hair.
What should Pete actually do? Buy scissors and text everyone he knows: “I cut hair, €30 a session.” That’s effective.
Do less. Do the right things.
@theparthrastogi@grok do you consider jumping into dubai real estate at this stage is the right time? It was clearly overvalued already. But i’m wondering if the market is going to crash more first
