What you get
Making delusional plans will get you delusional results.
It doesn’t matter how optimistic you are about it.
The gist is, you’ll be the bearer of the consequences.
– Pope
One day, just one day
…. and one day, I will get the opportunity to dramatically swipe everything off a table to make room for a giant map that I’ll use to explain the plan.

Fanatics
You see that delulu of working for 5-10 years to build wealth, then retire at 30-35 and travel the world?
Throw that rubbish thought away.
Guess who is 93 and 68 and still working?
Warren Buffet and Bill Gate respectively.
You might need to have a talk with yourself!
Not doing anything (passive income) is a lie.
People who are building the world are actively working at 52 (Elon Musk)

My Definition
Learn to define success for yourself in a way that’s process-oriented, and which focuses on taking action and on enjoying the journey of life.
This focus should take into account inner fulfilment, not just quantifiable financial success (which will never be 100 percent in your control).

Fast and Furious
The days will go by and 10 years will be like child’s play.
Question is, do you wanna spend those years doing what you love or just doing what you tolerate.
Also, you must understand that it is perfectly normal to change your mind when you discover newer and better information.
10 years will come in 10 years whether you do what you should or not!

Wisdom from Archimedes
With a place to stand, and a lever long enough, I can move the world.

Everything
“A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.”
– William Shakespeare
Engage your curiosity about everything. Possessing skills in multiple areas is valuable.
Learning even a little bit about business, philosophy, physics, coding, economics, etc. may put you in a position of immediate value in almost any group.

Quick thing
Money
Intelligence and Insight
Location and Luck
Education and Expertise
Status
Money is the capital you have, or that you can easily raise.
Intelligence and Insight includes ‘book smarts’, social and emotional intelligence, as well as creativity.
Location and Luck is all about being in the right place at the right time.
Education and Expertise is both your formal schooling and also your self-learning, which gives you intellectual and technical know-how.
Status is your social status, including your network and connections. It’s your ‘personal brand’ ‒ in other words, how you’re perceived. It also includes your inner status, which is your confidence and self-esteem.”
– Pope
Fall the fall
Let everyman fail his failure.
For therein lies his lessons.
We are a sum of our previous experiences,
The best you can do, help them fine-tune and optimize the values in their experiences.
We all need a dose of failure!
– Pope
