@BrettFromDJ You definitely have what it takes, good luck! Consider intermittent fasting / delaying breakfast. Personally it helps me feel more energetic.

@LinusEkenstam Impressive, keep it up!

@HeyImYossi Congrats!

If you can’t become the best, quit.

It's 1995 and Jeff Bezos is a junior at Princeton taking a Quantum Mechanics class.

And he just can't solve this math problem.

Here's the story and a lesson you need to hear🧵

@life_authors Deeply sorry for you loss

Highly recommend this video about the connection between lethargy/feeling sluggish and the lack of movement.

Freedom - what does it mean to you?

Is it something you've achieved? If not, what stands in your way?

Everything worthwhile I've learned took me years of deliberate practice to master. The nuances and critical details don't reveal themselves that early.

This encourages me to keep on learning and improving even if my inner critic tells me otherwise.

@yupitsandrew @TheAmineAouragh @robertodigital_ @freeCodeCamp @exercism_io The interactive mode of learning, the high quality of the exercises and the feedback from mentors are hard to beat.

[Jonathan Muehlstein @VRiD]

@TheAmineAouragh @robertodigital_ @freeCodeCamp I also recommend @freeCodeCamp in addition to @exercism_io

In general I'd start with either Python or Javascript depending on the preferable future use. Also Golang is a very interesting option, but it's more niche compared to the other two.

The paralyzing fear of damage to your perception of self worth is holding you back.

Acknowledge this fear, embrace it and learn to deal with it.

Sahil Bloom grew from 0 to 500k followers in less than two years.

This allowed him to quit his job and he's now at 5x what he was making as a VC.

You've failed? That's awesome!

Congratulations on getting out of your comfort zone 💪

Now focus on what you could have done to avoid failure & what you can do now to improve towards your next attempt.

Keep a neutral mindset and celebrate your progress 🎉

Nothing is guaranteed.

Everything in life is a product of chance and your deliberate action.

What you prioritize over time improves.

Know your top priorities and invest in them all you can.

Put yourself first, then family, friends & community.
