Sometimes in business you fail. Overconfidence. Bad calculations. Hiring the bad people. Weak systems… and a few times, simply bad luck. My failures and my teachers. My losses my investment. I’m lucky that I have a successful brother and remembers me all these things. He is also able to see the good news in every failure, even if it is a great loss. As Robert Kiyosaki said: Success is a poor teacher. We learn the most about ourselves when we fail, so don’t be afraid of failing. Failing is part of the process of success.

In one meeting, he cut roughly 70% of the product line. Imagine the room. Years of work. Teams built around those...
Anything that is alive is in a continual state of change and movement. The moment that you rest, thinking that you have attained the level you desire, a part of your mind enters a phase of decay. You lose your hard-earned creativity and others begin to sense it. This is a power and intelligence that must be continually renewed, or it will die ---- Robert Greene If you ever wonder what I’m doing at 10pm in New Zealand, just when I’m writing this email… You’ve got your answer. I said many times...
According to constraint theory, the greatest human bottleneck is attention. Yes. Our attention is our most finite resource. Even more finite and valuable than our time. Now, think about why Meta is so valuable. And Elon wanted X. And so on… Indeed, the quality and depth of our attention determines the quality of our time. Most people’s attention is scattered, tugged, and seemingly never right here and right now. The rich know this well. In the US, the top 1% don’t allow kids to interact with...
