Sudden distrust after a long period of trust is irreversible.

Major life cheat code: Don’t romanticize potential. Measure yourself by what you consistently do, not by what you believe you could do one day.

[GRITCULT @GRITCULT]

Learn to confidencemaxxx and watch reality bend your way. Winners act like winners. This is your sign to start believing in yourself. This is your sign to start becoming delusionally confident in yourself and the fact that it will all work out.

Major cheat code for life: Master the art of the fresh start. From a bad morning. From a bad interaction. From a missed workout. From a poor decision. The goal isn't to avoid the fall. It's to shorten the time between the fall and the reset. Fast recovery compounds.

[Blake Burge @blakeaburge]

Major cheat code in life: Understanding you can reinvent yourself at any time. New habits, new standards, new friend group, new career, etc. There's no rule that says you have to stay the person you've always been. You're allowed to decide... "I'm done being this version of me."

[Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 @pmarca]

Many people are saying.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

I'm convinced that adaptability is the highest form of intelligence. Knowledge matters, but the ability to learn and unlearn matters more. To change your mind in response to new information. The rigid cling to what was. The adaptable adjust to what is. The future belongs to them.

The human brain isn’t designed to process all of the world’s breaking emergencies in realtime.

Life advice nobody told you: Learn to tolerate boredom. Success isn't flashy. It's built through long periods of extremely disciplined, boring routines. If you need constant novelty, you won't make it very far. To shine in the light, you have to embrace boring work in the dark.

Jony Ive: Using touchscreens for basic car controls is a 'dumb design' that endangers lives.

"People are dying because of dumb design."

"Multi-touch shouldn't be in a car. It requires by definition that you're looking at a display."

When the man who popularized the touchscreen admits putting an iPad in your dashboard is a deadly mistake, automakers must listen.

I grew up in cars with analog switches, and I miss them. You could operate the radio or the climate control by pure muscle memory while keeping your eyes on the road.

Now, the data backs up that everyday frustration. A University of Washington study proves touchscreens cause lane drifting. Starting in 2026, Euro NCAP will actually strip 5-star safety ratings from cars that refuse to use physical buttons for basic controls.

We sacrificed safe, intuitive hardware for flat screens. It is time to bring the buttons back.

If you’re having a bad year, just remember:

Mark Zuckerberg wasted $73 billion on the Metaverse.

Tim Cook wasted $10 billion on the Apple Car.

Jeff Bezos lost $10 billion chasing Alexa.

Masayoshi Son lost $14B investing in WeWork and missed out on $150 billion by selling Nvidia early.

Cathie Wood dumped Nvidia right before ChatGPT launched and missed $1.2B

Logan Paul bought an NFT for $630,000 in 2021. Today, it's worth only $140.

Even the RICH and famous get it completely wrong sometimes.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

[Chamath Palihapitiya @chamath]

Key to winning:

Choose to be positive and grateful. Then, just keep at it. Time is the great compounder and will do the rest.

So many people just don’t have the discipline to stay positive and grateful. Then time compounds the bitterness instead.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Life advice nobody told you: Talent and intelligence are overrated. Intelligent people are more likely to overthink, overplan, and overanalyze. They hide behind motion that doesn't create progress. They fear the judgment of others if they're proven wrong. The truth is that talent and intelligence are abundant. Courage is not. The people you admire are the ones who had the courage to act. They aren’t more talented than you. They aren’t smarter than you. They just took action when you didn’t. I often wonder how many extraordinary people wasted their entire lives waiting for permission that never came. Permission isn't granted. It's taken. You get to tap yourself in whenever you want. You can just do things.

[Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom]

Major life hack: Don't complain, ever. Nobody likes a complainer. They drain the energy of everyone around them. It's exhausting spending time around someone who constantly complains about things outside their control. If it’s within your control, go do something about it. If it’s not, you’re just wasting energy thinking about it. Complaining gives too much power to the thing. Take back that power.

The human-perceived RGB is image 1 and the Tesla AI photon count reconstruction is image 2.

This is why Tesla FSD can see so well at night or through extreme glare.

[James Clear @JamesClear]

Life rarely changes in a positive way without an increase in responsibility.

That can mean taking ownership of your health or committing to a relationship or starting a business.

Whatever it is, if you want the trajectory to change, the amount of responsibility usually has to change.

[Malvin @ManOfFocus_]

Be rich. But never talk about money. Be fit. But never talk about working out. Be sharp. But never mention books. You're a man. Never let excitement make you announce things prematurely. Stay low-key and move silently. you'll never regret it.
