[Sosa | Mental Strategist @MetaMorpehus]

“You can never outperform your own self-image.”

— Maxwell Maltz

There's a gap between who you are and who you know you could be.

You already know what this better version looks like.

Every morning they wake up optimistic.

The right things are effortless. They respect themselves deeply, and that respect makes them immune to bad habits.

There's a deep self-trust that knows that whatever happens, they'll figure it out. This belief eliminates fake pressure.

Before challenges, their mind naturally replays memories of past success.

Proof that you already know how to do this.

Life becomes an unfolding.

Anything could happen anytime. They walk through their days in a constant state of appreciating the magic of being here.

Who they are, what they believe, it sits at the centre of their chest. Certain in themselves. You hear it in the firmness of their tone.

Just a deep comfort that you are in an experience and allowed to live it.

Their certainty in who they are submits the uncertainty of life.

Can you remember what that feels like?

Moments where everything clicked.

Where you surprised yourself.

Where you thought why can't I be like this all the time?

You can.

You don't have to pretend.
Or become someone you're not.

This person is you, and perhaps you remember all the times you've been them.

This is what I teach.

I get you back to this version.

The bottleneck isn't AI. It's you.

If your idea is trash, your AI outputs will be too.

99% of you don't have an AI skills problem - you have an AI idea communication problem.

This prompt solves that & guarantees you get better outputs (you'll want to save this):

If this is you, please read these books. There are no algorithms in human behavior, but there are plenty of heuristics, and getting bodied in status games is a very solvable problem. (Coaching can help, too.)

[Mustafa @oprydai]

reading densely for an hour a day completely rearranges your nervous system. the urge to scroll and other high-dopamine activities fades away. your thinking becomes calmer and deeper. i experienced this today after a long time: i was deeply immersed in the writer’s thoughts; the whys, hows, and whats going through their mind. your frequency shifts to a meta, high-order cognition that lets you observe both your own thinking and the writer’s.

40 things Rockefeller wrote to his son:

1. I never thought I would lose.

2. I do not meet competition. I destroy competitors.

3. Our destiny is determined by our actions and not by our origins.

4. Visionary businessmen are always good at finding opportunities in every disaster. That is how I did it.

5. You cannot sharpen your razor on velvet.

6. Get rid of the habit of being distracted.

7. Look at those who fail and you will find that most people fail not because they make mistakes, but because they are not fully committed. The same goes for companies.

8. Retreat means surrender. Retreat will turn you into a slave. The war is inevitable. Let it come.

9. Match people by their enthusiasm.

10. Luck is the remnant of design.

11. Anything can happen in this world.

12. The important thing is that you firmly believe that you are your greatest capital.

13. Bring a steel like determination to all challenges.

14. Action solves everything.

15. When I was a poor boy I was confident that I would become the richest person in the world. Strong self confidence inspired me.

16. Everyone is a designer and architect of his own destiny.

17. We’d better push it.

18. Smart people make things happen.

19. If I say that I have the power of life and death over oil refiners that is not a lie. I can make them wealthy or I can make them worthless.

20. Do it now. Opportunity comes from opportunity.

21. I never believed that failure is the mother of success. I believe that faith is the father of success.

22. Victory is a habit.

23. The glory and success of the family cannot guarantee the future of children and grandchildren.

24. People of poor backgrounds will actively develop their abilities because they urgently need to rescue themselves.

25. No one in the world leads a smooth life.

26. People who climb up in any industry are fully committed to what they are doing. They sincerely love the work that they do.

27. If you sincerely love the work that you do you will naturally succeed.

28. Life is an opportunity at a time.

29. Too many people overestimate what they lack and underestimate what they have.

30. Believing that there will be great results is the driving force behind all great careers.

31. My nature never wears off. What I like is the feeling of victory.

32. Enthusiasm is a force multiplier to everything.

33. Faith in yourself is the force that drives you forward.

34. I think carefully prepared plans and actions are called luck. I never succumb to luck, I believe in cause and effect.

35. In the process of pursuing career success the most important step is to prevent yourself from making excuses.

36. The outcome of things is often proportional to our enthusiasm.

37. I told myself, I warned myself. You must hold on to this [his business] tightly. It can bring you to the realm of your dreams.

38. Of course I paid a high price, but what I won was freedom and a glorious future. I became my own master.

39. The person who can create value the most is the person who devotes himself completely to his favorite activities.

40. The people who can get ahead in the world are those who know how to find their ideal environment. If they cannot find it, they will create it themselves.

STACK OVERFLOW JUST ANNOUNCED THEIR OWN AI!!!

OverflowAI is a tool, that will also have a VS Code plugin. The way this works, if you are on the site and ask a question, it will produce the answer for you while also citing the sources it used to produce the answer.

You can then ask more in the conversational area, even including code, and through Generative AI it can continue building off of the answer.

This is the right move on their part and I am confident a lot of people will be trying it out. Everything releases in August! Great job @StackOverflow. Really great announcement at the @WeAreDevs Conference!
