Be selfish with your time.
Be selfless with your knowledge.
Your time is limited.
You can't keep giving it away.
But it doesn't take extra time to give away your knowledge.
1 video can help 100, 10,000 or 1,000,000 people.
But it takes you the same amount of time.
So it makes sense to be selfless with your knowledge.
And selfish with your time.
But most people do the opposite.
They give their time away:
• To noise
• To meetings
• To distractions
Then they hoard what they know, afraid to share it.
But time is your most valuable asset.
And you can never get more of it.
So protect your calendar.
But share your knowledge to help others.
Be selfish with what doesn't scale.
Be selfless with what scales.
I hope your work leads to boundless success. It's rare to come across an article that is both profound and accessible, but this one manages it effortlessly. Devin Wysock
