Charlie Munger said: Tell me where I’m going to die. So I won’t go there As soon as you know what could go wrong, you can install enough guardrails and guiding lights to allow the team to travel without colliding on the sides. https://t.co/egrupbwnSS

Greatness (gravitas) is not about putting others down. It is raising ourselves to a greater standard.

The very media and technology that were meant to connect us too often feed into our divisions and keep us in silos.

Testing out @penpotapp as a replacement for sketch app. So far very pleased. Does everything I need. Looking for templates for designs though like loads of templates for Canva.

Sum is greater than parts only if parts are designed to fit together. You can bring the best of engine, tyres, gears, and so on. It won't make a best car. Remember this when you hire for your company.

When companies demand more and more work for the same amount of pay, employees will cut corners and it will show up in the delivery. Bosses can yell at the workers. It won't change. Treat them well. Pay them more.

We place far too much emphasis on engineering at the expense of art and literature. When you read literature: • your empathy grows • you know opposing views • you fight for helpless • you get good at storytelling • your moral compass sharpens https://t.co/RrooSleMPD

Have you read "The psychology of money"? Then pick up "Just keep buying" by Nick Maggiulli (@dollarsanddata). If psychology of money was about "mindset of handling money", then just keep buying is "hands of handling money". It teaches you practical steps and ways. https://t.co/Bax7XIi2dC

Today's economy is driven by anxiety and so it begets violence, dishonesty, jealousy, theft, the commodification of sex and familial alienation. We need an economy driven by wholeness & enoughness. There is enough in this world for everyone. But some wants to grab everything

Hey @stck_me, when I click on unsubscribe, the expectation is it is done in one click. Don't ask me the email again. You make it difficult to unsubscribe, users will just click report spam and go on.

Two mediocre novelists working together cannot produce better work than one excellent one. 1000 chickens can't match a tractor in ploughing a field. Quantity of people doesn't matter. Whether they fit the purpose matter.

Mingling with better peers enhances your skill. I remember one of the earliest conversation I had with @rishabh_grg. He said, I can't find better peers in the physical world where I live, but I can always find on the Internet. He has put that principle to practice well.

Mingling with better peers enhances their own skill, making each other better. => You are average of 5 people you surround yourself with. If you want to improve yourself, find better peers. In the Internet world it is not difficult to find better peers.

There are many differences between school and real life. Schools teaches you zero-sum games. Life is more of non-zero-sum games. That is why I homeschool my kids. If you are interested, follow @FamilyIsSchool https://t.co/kVTQpoa1nd

Great writers, actors, and companies copy all the time. So don’t feel guilty for copying. Start to think about what you’ll copy as a first step to become a master. Here I talk about mimicing masters to success: https://t.co/UM6jbmTfRr #career

A great book is not a picture on the wall, but a window to the world. Great books open your souls and mind to an entirely new world. They renew your mind. You can't go back to old way of thinking.

Those who seldom make mistakes seldom progress. Mistakes cause stress and pain. But they are also the route for learning what not to do next time. Trial and error is a great teacher.
