Tomorrow is election day.

Most people are emotionally invested in one outcome or another. When predictions get mixed up with hope and fear, the disciplined analyst has an edge.

In emotionally charged situations, composure comes at a premium.

@vibetelli It's about how we judge ourselves and others. Still shaping the thought, but you'll see it on my timeline soon.

Repeating your best ideas isn't a lack of creativity. It's how you reinforce what you want to be known for.

@Prestige_AP If your environment doesn't demand discipline, you have to supply it yourself.

@MasteryQuot This is gold. If you stub your toe on furniture, you don't take it personally. You'll just learn to be more careful next time.

Think about a poker player who never gets caught bluffing. That might sound good to the casual observer, but it means they're not bluffing enough.

The same principle applies to sales, experimentation, negotiation, and many other situations involving repeated decisions.

Optimal strategies don't eliminate failure. They accept a certain rate of failure in exchange for better expected results over time.

The goal isn't to avoid losing. It's to make decisions that pay off in the long run.

@MindHaste Don't compare your future with your past. Compare it with the future you'd have if you gave up now.

@masteroogwgay @grok The medal looks like a cookie. If they were smart enough to know the difference, they'd be building startups instead of sweating for a living.

@ANdidiamak9917 It's as if those bills have no sense of accountability.

@linbo_tang For some people, getting lucky early was the worst thing that ever happened to them.

@AlexHormozi A-players attract A-players, but being one is neither necessary nor sufficient to find one. Finding great people involves people skills of its own.

[The Edgonomist @edgonomist]

You don't need to know how you'll figure everything out.

You need to trust that you will.

Commit to what matters.
Accept that you'll make mistakes.
Learn as you go.
Keep moving.

Certainty isn't a prerequisite for commitment.
