Affordable, dependable, clean, & environmentally friendly transportation is the beating heart of a city.

Been at Avis for 30min. Still no car

[Tyler Phillipi @Phillipi]

Middle of the day, 40 people in line, 2 people checking in. Never taking @Avis again…

Focusing for a moment on the POLICIES at play.

Voters were asked whether they supported 100 different policies, but weren't told whether the policy was from Trump or Harris.

Nearly all of Harris' policies got majority support from the public, and... 🧵

@d_gershenson Citrus can only be inside in the winter. They need lots of sun.

[Tyler Phillipi @Phillipi]

@d_gershenson The coolest 😎

Another reason I love the PNW ☺️

The best place to relax is near water.

After just 2 minutes of viewing water outdoors, blood pressure and heart rate drop. It's more calming to look at a lake, pool, or stream than trees or grass.

Beaches are popular for a reason. Wider bodies of water bring more tranquility.

All my traveling to Dublin Ireland, Sydney Australia, and Mumbai India has paid off! Excited to make my way back and I’ll bring my family this time. 🍀 🇮🇪

@BeaverDamWrkshp Is that Gary Payton?!?

In the second half tonight, the @49ers' Brock Purdy:

- threw for 150+ yards
- rushed for 45+ yards
- completed 80% of his passes
- averaged 10.0+ yards per rush
- had 0 turnovers

No other NFL QB in the last 30 years has done all of that in a single half (reg or post).

I already owned it and built an app for it, it wasn’t that cool…

[Jesse Pujji @jspujji]

I just ordered the future.

Taking VC funding, over other funding, should not be a goal or have any kind of personal worth associated with it. VC funding is a relatively bad deal for founders compared to less dilutive options.

[☔🔥☔ @kirbywinfield]

sent this to a founder with awesome demand and founder-market fit who insists on offshoring dev and forgoing a technical cofounder to "limit dilution"

[Tyler Phillipi @Phillipi]

@kirbywinfield I wish more founders (and potential founders) would heed this, AND not take it as a negative. Don’t need VC, great! VC money is a relatively terrible deal compared to other financing options…

[Anthony Vicino @AnthonyVicino]

Spent a weekend at a private event with 15 of the internet's top creators last summer.

Here's a peek at my notes:

1. The Power of Community

Doesn't matter where you are in the game:

EVERYBODY yearns for community.

There's magic in getting together.

And it's something we all want more of, but...

Most of us are just sitting around waiting to be invited to the party.

Pro-Tip:

Don't wait for an invite... just go throw your own party.

Be the hub that connects your network.

2. Confidence, Not Ego

True killers don't feel the need to prove it.

No posturing.
No chest-thumping.
No dominating conversations.

The true legends at this event spent the majority of the time just listening.

3. Hawks, not Peacocks

Success looks a certain way...

But it's not how most people think.

It's not flashy designer clothes, suits, or over-the-top jewelry.

It's 90% plain t-shirts.

Being successful beats just looking successful.

(p.s. if you're enjoying this, give me a follow @AnthonyVicino for more)

4. A-Players Think Differently

Throughout hundreds of conversations, I never once heard:

"Well, actually..."

The best don't try to prove how much they know.

They're try to extract as much knowledge from YOU as possible.

If they disagree with you, they don't dig in their heels to prove why they're right and you're wrong...

They ask questions to better understand YOUR position.

Because at the end of the day their goal isn't to be right... it's to get to the right answer quickest.

No prizes are given for being the smartest person in the room.

There's a reason Know-It-Alls don't make it to the highest levels of the game.

Success flows to those who commit to learning the most.

5. The Best Are Obsessed

If you're not living and breathing your craft...

Constantly investing in your skills...

And obsessing over every single detail...

Then you are going to get blown off the court by the guys who do.

6. Iterations Matter More than Repetitions

The level to which guys these guys obsess and TEST every little detail is INCREDIBLE.

Reminds me of what @naval said:

"It's not 10,000 hours, it's 10,000 iterations."

7. Communication Is the Key That Unlocks Any Door

The goal of communication is Influence and Connection.

Interestingly, the most influential and connected people in the group weren't the ones with the best answers...

They were the ones with the best questions.

8. Health is the Ultimate Flex

Forget outward symbols of success like fast cars, fancy clothes, or shiny watches.

The truest status symbol is a fit body.

There's no faking that.

You either put the time in... or ya didn't.

"Your body is like a bank account that everybody can see." - @ShaanVP

EVERYBODY at this weekend's retreat had made meaningful deposits in the account that actually mattered most...

Their Health.

9. Whole Life Billionaires

The most interesting part...

None of these rockstars were just chasing money.

They were all committed to living full and purpose driven lives.

They embody an idea I call The Whole Life Billionaire.

I'll explain more about that below.👇

@sweatystartup Yeah, basically all decent hotels do digital keys to your phone to open your room. You probably had this option on some recent trips but didn’t know about it. 🍻

[Tyler Phillipi @Phillipi]

This!

[Nick Huber @sweatystartup]

Say it with me:

I will not reinvent the wheel.

I will copy what works.

I will use proven methods to make money in boring ways.

I will do common things uncommonly well.

If it isn’t broken I will not try to fix it.

I will keep it simple.

Repeat it, then repeat it again. Then put it on your bathroom mirror and repeat it every morning before you start your day.
