Tech start-ups can’t always find the niche skills required within the UK but they face long timelines and high costs in the battle for global talent

I’m in love with this sentence:

“Consistency looks like nothing is happening, until everything changes.”

[Reads with Ravi @readswithravi]

I’m in love with this sentence:

“One of the most underrated skills you can learn is the ability to ignore your mood and stick with the plan.”

And for my next trick I will call life beautiful and instantly watch it become so

There’s an old Chinese proverb that I love:

“He who blames others has a long way to go on his journey. He who blames himself is halfway there. He who blames no one has arrived.”

The final stage of healing is becoming a fucking weirdo again. Where you’re so powerful and so free inside yourself you just don’t give a shit. It’s all art. It’s all life. It’s all beautiful. That’s the fucking point.

13. The career you've built might impress others but mean nothing to your actual soul. Titles don't fill the void. If you're successful and still empty, success isn't the problem — you built someone else's dream and called it yours.

14. Your younger self would be disappointed in how safe you're playing it now as an adult. Remember when you had dreams bigger than comfort? You didn't survive your 20s just to spend your 30s hiding. That kid is still in there, ashamed.

7. Your "I'll do it when I have more money" list will never happen. The trip, the class, the hobby — experiences don't require wealth, they require priority. Stop using money as an excuse for a life you're quietly choosing not to live.

8. Nobody's thinking about you as much as you think — your embarrassment lives only in your head. That party five years ago? Forgotten by everyone but you. You're the only one replaying your failures on loop, in a prison with one inmate.

Major cheat code for life: Become difficult to rush. The world will pressure you to rush into everything. Rushed decisions. Rushed conversations. Rushed relationships. Rushed timelines. There's immense power in rejecting that trend. Slow down. Create space to think clearly.

Tolerating always turns to resentment. At first, you call it patience, then love. But what it really is, is self-abandonment. Every time you swallow a boundary, excuse a pattern or silence your discomfort, something inside you keeps score. Likes And eventually, the bill comes due.

Allow your friends to distance themselves to fix their lives not everything is about you

[Stunna ⛧ @wentsickomode]

Listen, them MFs wasn’t even 30 yet and had houses, condos and was SPENDING!!!!…..😂

Life meets you at your audacity

[Unapologetic @Unapologx]

When you finally realised you could have been dead and forgotten if not for the mercy and grace of God through Christ Jesus.

I want to look back at the end of this year and say “God knew exactly what He was doing. His plans are indeed greater than mine.”

You have to develop a strong opinion of yourself so you don't end up internalizing the beliefs others have of you.

I can't believe human were gifted a planet with full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then they invented debt, capitalism and war
