A great way to not achieve your 2026 goals is to think you need to wait until 2026 to start them.

“Young people don’t want to work hard anymore”

No.

Young people don’t want to work hard anymore…for you.

You have to create a company worth working hard for.

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

Everything is hard when you don’t know where to start, how to get better, and how to keep going after your rate of progress slows.

Only newbies get newbie gains. But being the best means working really hard to get a tiny bit better than everyone else.

What do Olympic winners have, that most people don't? Focus and obsession to win. Imagine you had that. Luckily most people have distractions.

Good to meet fellow hustlers

More only works if you have feedback loops to get better. More for the sake of more doesn't move the needle. - Alex Hormozi

If I were to describe myself in 1 word: over-optimiser. If I can automate, I usually will. I learn from people more successful than I am, and just do. I don't do 100 things, I do 1.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

I quit my job to start my own is because the pain not in control is higher than the pain of not having enough revenue.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

As a dev, I prefer to use no-code tool like N8N vs pure code is because it's more visual: you can see the workflow. It's easier to debug as well.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

I realise when I want to achieve a hard goal, for example, running a half marathon in 90mins by end of next year, I have to go all in and be focused, which means, I have to sacrifice my other hobby, which is rock climbing.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

I'm always a fan of showing how I teach. This gives parents a sneak peek on how I conduct lessons. And they get to learn something as well.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

I believe there comes to a point where AI will have no more "hype" updates, just like how anything "hype" was in the past. AI will just be a common thing. Not using it will be not normal.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

Not a big fan of running multiple business. I won't be great at running at any if my attention is divided. Greatness imo is from 1 focus, improvement and patience.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

Underrated skills to stand out:
1. Speaking English fluently
2. Typing without looking at the keyboard
3. Using 2 screens
4. Not using AI to create quality work

Accenture has fired 11,000 people, yet they are hiring. Accenture CEO Julie Sweet said that the company has been "exiting" employees it can't retrain with AI skills, while simultaneously planning to expand head count in the next fiscal year. (reference Times of India)

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

Using AI to improve work is great. Using AI to do your work is good. Using AI without quality control is shit.

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

I am happy at my own pace currently. Could I go faster? Definitely. But at what cost? Usually, quality.

Was going through question where A has $5.20 more than B. And A father gave $10 to A. My student went "That's not fair". And I say, "Yup, the richer is getting richer" Gotta inject some real life lessons

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

Caught up with a friend and he said: "You look buffer than I thought". What should I replied: "Thanks, took me 10 years of consistent effort". What I replied "Thanks"

[Haris @TheHappyHaris]

I don't think you should take certifications or read books

... without any form of using it, if you working on a better career.
