Nothing better than seeing your friends succeed

The day a blind man sees. The first thing he throws away is the stick that has helped him all his life

[Prompter @PromptLLM]

a good life hack is whenever life gets 'tough' is to take melatonin at 7:30/8pm to completely reset you sleeping pattern.

You will then wake up at 2-3am and just start doing the tasks you need to do. first day will be rough and then you will fall into a new sleeping pattern.

Within a week you will be waking up at 5am with ease and then it is funny how life starts to fall into place when you wake up before everyone else and get work done.

There is definitely a correlation with how stressed I am and what time I wake up. once I start waking up past 7:30am there seems to be a complete shift and I am suddenly reacting to life rather then being proactive in making the future I want.

The issue is waking up at 5am is unsustainable. Don't listen to what the gurus say, once you start dabbling in the joys of life your sleeping pattern gets pulled back to the equilibrium, being a '5amer' can only be done in sprints.

If you’re in a growth phase my best advise is to get off social media.

More information will only distract you and slow you down. Instead, lean into what is working and keep riding that momentum.

The leader is the one who has the power to eat first but chooses to eat last.

One of my setters said “I’m not gonna work on Saturday because it’s Valentine’s Day and I don’t want to annoy people”

Brother… it’s not a public holiday 😭😭

I overheard a guy talking about Indian developers and how he prefers to have developers based in the US instead and I noticed that throughout his entire conversation he kept looking at me from time to time to see if I was staring at him and oh boy oh boy, was was I looking at him 🤣

My boss is totally unhinged. He just
divided a stack of resumes into two,
threw one pile away and said

“we can't work with unlucky people”

People that have their calendar link in their email sig have zero control of their time

[Jason Applebaum @Jason______A]

Never start a business with people whose skills overlap too much with yours.

The best partnerships are built on clearly owned lanes, not fighting over the same decisions.

@MrPitbull07 This is still possible in Australia domestic airports, I’m unsure about elsewhere

Just spent the past two hours reviewing applicants on seek, tell me why everyone em dashes in their cover letter.

@GeorgeEthoughts @rfkenmore What do you recommend instead?

The difference in heart rate with a very easy first mile vs. easy-moderate is wild.

If I push a little in the 1st mile, my HR will be in Z3 for most of the run. If I run 1st mile very easy, there's a much slower rate of increase and the max is lower.

What's the mechanism here?

@222chico @dott_dott1357 @BrianAtlas Yeah poor form

Saw someone my age raise $5M while I was making $3K/month.

Felt behind.

Now that company is dead. I'm still here.

Timelines are misleading. Just stay in the game.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I'm increasingly convinced that showing up is the key to life. Show up when no one’s watching. Show up when it’s hard. Show up when you don't feel like it. Show up when the rewards are uncertain. Just show up. You can never bet against the person who just keeps showing up.

[BasedBiohacker @BasedBiohacker]

the thing about work life balance is that the REALLY happy moments only come when you feel that you have truly deserved them.

making yourself a drink, retiring to your couch and watching a movie isn't really anything special if you do it every night. it's whatever. routine.

but if you've been putting in 14 hour days, stayed disciplined in the gym, maintained a good diet for two weeks straight, the ABSOLUTE BLISS of doing this is so intense most normies and wagecucks would actually fucking explode.

it is 100 times better than doing the exact same thing every night/ every weekend night. it's EUPHORIC to finally sit down, catch your breath, take that first sip of your negroni and TRULY RELAX when you've been going hard as fuck for a long time.

few people will ever experience this. it feels better than cocaine (speaking from experience).

[caiden @inboxfelon]

the best productivity hack is having a friend who's slightly more successful than you that you talk to regularly

someone one step above who makes you feel like "oh wait I could do that too"

aspirational but not intimidating. that's the sweet spot.
