There’s a strange difficulty in giving advice when you know your own experience isn’t particularly normal.
You want to share what worked for you, but you also know someone could follow the exact same steps and get a completely different result.
The best way to honour someone who did a lot for you but regressed into someone you can no longer respect, is to remember the best version of them and be thankful for what they did for you. Even if they ultimately failed you, they gave you a great gift as proof of their love.
All is reps. There’s no substitution for reps. 10,000 hours is just a metaphor for reps. Chess is reps. Painting is reps. Thinking, wisdom, even prayer is reps. There’s a reason the French say ‘apprendre par cœur’ (to learn by heart). Repetition itself is the stairway to heaven

i asked a brilliant person how he got so unusually good at his thing: “i wanted hot girls to find me interesting and talk to me”
finally, an honest theory of human capital formation
i’ll teach you the best time to buy products, so pay attention;
1. cars - dec
2. iPhones - sep to oct
3. TVs - jan to feb
4. laptops - nov to july & aug
5. electronics - nov
6. washer & dryers - sept to oct
7. grills & patio - aug to sept
8. indoor furniture - jan & july
9. gold - june to july
10. flights - feb to march & mid-week
most of you focus on what to buy but smart buyers also think about when to buy it.
look, cars get cheaper when dealers need to clear old inventory, phones get discounted when newer models arrive, TVs drop when retailers need room for the next generation, laptops get aggressive during back-to-school and holiday sales, i can go on and on
the same product can cost dramatically different amounts depending on when you buy it.
patience is a form of leverage.
you don't always need to earn more money to afford more things, sometimes you just need to stop buying at the wrong time.
