Here are 29 life learnings for my 29th birthday:

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I’m convinced that the most important skill in life is the ability to just figure it out. You’ll face a lot of problems that you have no idea how to solve. There’s nothing more valuable than knowing you’ll see it through. That you’ll handle it. Do the work. Get it done. Repeat.

@ChuckCook My 2022 Model Y lost power steering at 39k miles. Tesla replaced the steering rack, then they then tried a front vehicle controller, goodwilled it when that failed, and now say the rack also damaged the HW3 computer. Estimate went from $3.1k to $6.1k, just months out of warranty.

Maybe it’s time for a more long term move…

Having a nanny in Vietnam has been game changing. You can hire a full time nanny for $4K - $5K a year. Something that would be closer to $50K a year in the US.

I’m not sure how we’ll re-acclimate to life back in the states now that we’ve experienced how convenient life is here.

in the age of ai, the question everyone's asking is "will i be replaced?"

the real question is: do you know yourself well enough to become irreplaceable?

everyone's getting access to the same models. same tools. with growing capabilities. the playing field is leveling fast.

but here's the thing: Cursor doesn't think for you. it amplifies you.

it takes your agency – your unique way of seeing problems, your taste, your judgment, your weird specific obsessions – and scales it 100x.

it takes your strengths – the things only you are uniquely good at, the perspectives only you have from your specific life path – and makes them exponentially more powerful.

the humans who win in this era aren't the ones with the best prompts or the most tokens. they're the ones who know themselves deeply. who have conviction about their unique point of view. who've done the hard work of figuring out what only they can do.

ai is a mirror and a multiplier. if you're generic, it makes you more generic. if you're exceptional and know your strengths, it makes you unstoppable.

your agency + your strengths + ai = where you become 100x more valuable and powerful.

the question isn't whether to use tools like Cursor. it's whether you believe in your own agency enough to use it right.

the humans who deeply know who they are, what they believe, and what they're uniquely great at – those are the ones who'll build the future.

find your way. lean into your strengths. believe in human agency.

then let Cursor amplify the hell out of it.

Still working out the image generation and game design, but this will be way more fun for the students than their current printout workbooks!

[John Pham @johnhpham]

It's still in beta...but I'm working on building an English learning, 8-bit themed gaming app for learners in Vietnam prepping for the Flyers Exam! Still working on the image generation and game play but did all this just with one afternoon of prompting! https://t.co/teq2VzR8xm

[Tim Ferriss @tferriss]

For all of the most important things, the timing always sucks. Waiting for a good time to quit your job? The stars will never align and the traffic lights of life will never all be green at the same time. The universe doesn’t conspire against you, but it doesn’t go out of its way to line up all the pins either. Conditions are never perfect. “Someday” is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro and con lists are just as bad. If it’s important to you and you want to do it “eventually,” just do it and correct course along the way.
