One love. 28all. Eya. The Warm-Up: “People don’t hate to see risk-takers get rewarded, they hate to see their own lack of courage, they hate to see their own lack of self-belief, they hate to see people who are no more talented than them outperform them: these people were simply smart enough to not overthink.” ~Orange Book The Core: “Obsess over fundamentals, not trophies.” ~Shane Parrish “I have never seen ordinary effort lead to extraordinary results.” ~Alexandr Wang “It’s so humbling getting a glimpse of what God protected you from.” ~@educatedhustler “I tell young entrepreneurs all the time; The future doesn’t care about the past.” ~Marc Randolph “Great communicators don’t start with what they know, but with what the audience knows.” ~Kpaxs “One thing I love about God is, He will bring you out of a situation [you] got yourself into, and won’t hold it against you.” ~@educatedhustler “There are two types of people: those who try to win and those who try to win arguments. They are never the same.” ~Nassim Nicholas Taleb “There is no such thing as a quantum leap. There is only dogged persistence—and in the end, you make it look like a quantum leap.” ~James Dyson “People expect your behavior to conform to known patters and conversations. Your task as a strategist is to upset their expectations.” ~Robert Greene “The essential decision in investing is how much emphasis one should put on preserving capital and how much on growing it.” ~Howard Marks, Ruminating on Asset Allocation “Love has never been a popular movement, and no one’s ever wanted really to be free. The world is held together, really it is, held together, by the love and the passion of a very few people.” ~James Baldwin “A surefire way to make a bad situation worse is to continue replaying it in your mind. The damage is done. The only thing that matters now is making the best choice given your current position. Next play mentality.” ~James Clear “Stop forcing your way into places you don’t belong. Yes you’re qualified, you have the skill set & you will make it better but [you] don’t belong there. Have [you] ever fathomed that God has closed that door so [you] won’t enter because he wants what’s best for [you] & that aint.” ~Coach Prime “I believe that defeat is life’s way of nudging you and letting you know you’re off course. There’s always some sort of hidden opportunity or lesson in each episode—a chance to build your character. Spanx wouldn’t exist if I had aced the LSAT.” ~Sara Blakely on not letting a temporary defeat turn into a permanent loss Last Set: “My therapist said this to me in our session today and it really opened my eyes: ‘The reason that you self-sabotage is because it allows you to predict what is going to happen, which is giving you the illusion of self-control.” ~@Synexdoche Food For Thought: “My old coworker got promoted to a manager position. She just wrote me to tell me & said ‘if you’re looking to be a Data Engineer again, let me know. I’ll open a role for you.’ That’s what community is all about.” ~@Ariannnyy_
