Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time. The ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles.
True success is not the absence of failure. It is the refusal to surrender!
Consistency.
Chess is live in miniature.
Do it.
Do it tired.
The feeling of tiredness is simply a technique used by the brain to conserve energy. Ignore it.
Be passionate about the problems you are solving because it is so hard that you will give up otherwise.
The meaning in life is not something you subscribe to, it is what you give.
There is no such a thing as a long time ago. There are only memories that mean something and memories that don't.
Do not choose to have kids. Choose to be a parent.
Your destiny is only, what you do, and what you choose not to do.
It is not things we see; it is our perception about things.
Nice.
You are what you are paying attention to.
Time is a flat circle.
I don't sleep. I just dream.
Never let schooling interfere with your education.
School teaches that attending is necessary. Get good grades. Find job. Be an employee. Take mortgage. Pay taxes. Save for retirement. Die.
How about "no"?
Better to fail with the wise than succeed with the fool.
Do not mistake movement for achievement.
Making no decision is a decision.
Of the many tasks you have to complete, you have to prioritize one that can be done in least amount of time.
This is the way it always been.
It is equally dangerous to speak up and to stay silent. Peak your poison. You are not getting not to choose.
If you do not specify your goals, you will miss 100% of the time, just not knowing about that.
Be the person you want to meet. Craft the message you want to spread. Advocate for the cause you believe in. Create the product you want to buy. Lead the change you want to see in the world. Build the company you want to work with. Build the team you want to be part of. Write the book you want to read. Crete the art you want to see. Plant the garden you want to wander in. Embrace the lifestyle you want to lead.
Good artists copy, great artists steal.
You could have known, but you chose not to.
Hire smart people, give them autonomy, and ask them what to do.

No meeting when an email would do. No email when silent would do.
How can I learn it? Read: It Doesn't Have to Be Crazy at Work.
Many people spend two full days a week on email and in meetings alone new data shows.
Remote is a lifestyle choice.
You can choose to work remotely. You can choose to work with remote-first companies. You can choose asynchronous communication.
Read: REMOTE Office not required.
Peak a date and budget. Launch. Do not scale up by adding more time, money, and people. Scale down the scope.
You are stopping you.
Nothing is perfect. Nothing is finished.
Die trying.
