Learnings

A few rules I try to live and work by.

Life

01

Live today. Don’t stay stuck in the past or postpone life for the future. “One day” will never come.

02

Life is a journey toward discovering yourself. Don’t try to be someone else. Be you.

03

Be curious about what’s around you. Judgment and bias limit your growth.

04

Focus is everything. Don’t try to chase two rabbits at the same time.

05

Clarity comes after action, not before. Movement clears the mind better than thinking does.

06

Better a small action today than a big action tomorrow.

07

Writing is one of the best tools to clear your mind. Use it often.

08

Your energy is key. Track what drains it and what restores it.

09

You never know what’s going to happen tomorrow. Have a plan, but act today.

Work

10

Everything you’re looking for lies on the other side of the actions you’re avoiding.

11

It doesn’t matter how much you know if you’re not turning it into action.

12

Start with a system. Improve it as you go.

13

Be around people where the desired behavior is the default behavior.

14

Work with people who energize you. It compounds fast.

15

Kill the perfectionist in yourself. Ship early. Feedback teaches faster than planning.

16

Create space for everyone to speak. The best ideas often come from unexpected places — but only if they’re invited.
