Habits determine the type of autopilot you run on. #Thibaut. Walk good. 28all. Eya. *KO, WC* The Warm-Up: “Most of what we think we’re doing when we’re asking for help, when we’re going to seminars, when we’re watching YouTube videos…we’re just procrastinating. We’re not really serious. When you’re serious, you just do it.” ~Naval Ravikant The Core: “Character may almost be called the most effective means of persuasion.” ~Aristotle “Every single one of us is capable of so much more than we allow ourselves to believe.” ~Rich Roll “You don’t need more information; you need to tell the difference between what is important and what isn’t.” ~K Paxs “The novice sees the answers. The professional sees the complexity. The master sees the simplicity.” ~Shane Parrish “The longer the time frame for results, the less you need intensity and the more you need consistency.” ~Shane Parrish “The less you worry about what other people think, the more people accept you for who you are. There is freedom in authenticity.” ~K Paxs “Delete numbers out of your phone, detox your timeline, change your routine. Do what needs to be done so you can save yourself.” ~Sylvester McNutt “There are a lot of guys who are all talk. They say they want to work harder and be the best, but they never pay the price. I love paying the price.” ~Tom Brady “When startups are doing well, their investor updates are short and full of numbers. When they’re not, their updates are long and mostly words.” ~Paul Graham “Don’t let the growing pains cause you to retreat to the old patterns. Being new will feel awkward for a while but on the other side of that is liberation.” ~Dr. Thema Bryant “Shawn ‘Jay Z’ Carter, a timeline: 1980s: street pharmaceutical rep, 1990s: rapper, 2000s: label executive, 2010s: tech entrepreneur, 2020s: billionaire board member.” ~Web Smith “Intellectually, I know the next deal will come along, because it always has. Emotionally, no matter how recently I’ve bought something, part of me lives in terror that I’ll never, ever find anything to buy again.” ~Moses Kagan “So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality, what we really want seems impossibly out of reach and ridiculous to expect so we never dare to ask the universe for it, I’m saying I’m the proof that you can ask the universe for it.” ~Jim Carrey “I don’t own any Square, and this is not financial advice, but I’ll be backing up the truck and buying on every dip from here on out. Jack Dorsey is connecting the dots between culture, tech, and finance at a level I’ve never seen from a public company CEO.” ~Bryce Roberts “Greatness is consistency. Meditating once is common. Meditating daily is rare. Exercising today is simple. Training every week is simply remarkable. Writing one essay rarely matters. Write every day and you’re practically a hero. Unheroic days can make for heroic decades.” ~James Clear “We’re spirit people. That’s why we dance. It shows in our art. It shows in our dance. It’s spirit, brother. Spirit. With passion. We’re spirit people, bro. It’s who he made us. When I embrace Christ, I embrace my purpose. I never embraced religion. I still don’t embrace religion. Christ never came to make us religious. Christ came to make us Children of God.” ~Pastor Roger Jamison in Black Magic, by Chad Sanders. Last Set: “You can’t get to the good part if you’re not willing to go through the dark part…Many people never get to intimacy in relationships…I’mma tell you why…because they won’t push through the insecurity…cause I gotta be willing to let you see me…” ~Steven Furtick, Get To The Good Part Food for Thought: “For years the traditional wisdom – long on tradition, short on wisdom – held that inflation protection was best provided by businesses laden with natural resources, plants and machinery, or other tangible assets (‘In Goods We Trust’). It doesn’t work that way. Asset-heavy businesses generally earn low rates of return – rates that often barely provide enough capital to fund the inflationary needs of the existing business, with nothing left over for real growth, for distribution to owners, or for acquisition of new businesses.” ~Warren Buffet, To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., 1983 More Tings (Click the link to explore further): Confluence.VC…it would be #23 :).
