Like Tiffany P said, I’m “in residence with myself at the moment” ...Walk good. 28all. Eya. *TP, OI, AB* The Warm-Up: “‘Sawabona’, which literally means: ‘I see you.’ The response is ‘Sikbona’ which means: ‘I am here.’” ~learned during the reunion session of AoC3. The Core: “Competence > Credentials.” ~James Clear “You don’t need mentors, you need action.” ~Naval Ravikant “Growth starts when you stop taking criticism personally.” ~Orange Book “The biggest mistake people make while ‘in transition’ is to rush it.” ~Gagan Biyani “Always trust everyone to be themselves but trust in the fact you can see them well…” ~DMX “You are not separated from your goals by a number of years, you are separated from your goals by a number of actions.” ~Professor Douglas Kruger “You can save yourself and others a lot of frustration by learning to recognize when people simply want to be heard and don’t wat your feedback, advice, or suggestions.” ~Dr. Thema Bryant “How to get started on the internet, in… 2000s: Blog. 2010s: Blog. 2020s: Blog. Distribution channels have shifted, but what get distributed has not (good ideas that entertain, inspire, educate).” ~Sahil Lavingia “Temporary comfort will not heal your unresolved trauma. You can only rest in fleeting energy for so long before the cracks in your heart that you papered over start to open again. Your healing process deserves something thicker than water and glue.” ~Billy Chapata “As a minority there are always ceilings placed on you. You automatically get compared to other minorities and told you can’t do more than them because they are more experienced, older, etc. Stop comparing us, the past is not a representation of the future. It’s a whole new game.” ~Henri Pierre-Jacques, Co-Founder, Managing Partner, Harlem Capital “Do we got the room to make mistakes? / Are we judged for everything we said? (Ooh, ooh, ooh) / I wanna grow but I’m afraid (Ooh, ooh, ooh) / And will it always be the same? (Ooh, ooh, ooh) / Does what I gotta say even matter? (Ooh, ooh, ooh) / Is life about climbing up the ladder / And can we even see lives that are shattered? / ‘Cause I’m really tryna silence the chatter / What have we done with society? / When everybody’s getting canceled / And can’t there be room for maturity? / ‘Cause writing ‘em off is not the answer…” ~Justin Bieber ft. Lauren Walters, Afraid To Say “Q: What are the most important qualities for an entrepreneur to have? A: Clarity of thought. The ability to communicate clearly. A great sense of mission. A massive willingness to persevere. A willingness to make painful decisions. Extraordinary energy. And a belief that he or she has embarked on their life’s work. Those are the hallmarks of the truly wonderful entrepreneurs behind the handful of fantastic companies. There are lots of other virtues of entrepreneurs for companies that are nice companies, that everybody would be proud to be associated with, but that aren’t up in the stratosphere, where only a few companies orbit.” ~Michael Moritz: When we invested in Google “History is only interesting because nothing is inevitable. Carl Richards says, ‘Risk is what’s left when you think you’ve thought of everything.’ I’ve found no better definition. The finance industry spent a decade debating what the biggest risk to the economy was. Was it tax hikes? Money printing? Budget deficits? Trade wars? Setting interest rates at 0.5% when the proper rate should have been 0.75%. And of course, the answer was none of those. It was a virus. That’s usually how it works. Look at virtually any decade and you’ll see that the most important news story was something no one was talking about until the moment it occurred.” ~Morgan Housel, The Big Lessons of the Last Year Last Set: “I know You’re not a God out there hiding on mountains, oh no / You come right where I am, lost my way but You found me / Like the rain in the dark, on my ugliest days / You say that You’ll always love me just the same / And then You remind me that You’re holding me tight / You said the past is behind me and it will be alright / Oh, and You say to me It’ll be alright / Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh / Gonna be alright, gonna be alright / It will, it will be alright…” ~Justin Bieber ft. Judah Smith, Chandler Moore & Tori Kelly, Where Do I Fit In [Verse 3: Chandler Moore, Justin Bieber & Chandler Moore]
