recently I was given a cluster of letters my grandmother (who has been dead for many years) wrote to me as a small child. the contents of them are utterly mundane, but serve as a unique window into who she was and how she thought about me.

you should write letters to your kids for them to read in the future. you never know what the future has in store.

there's always value in rereading material you previously thought might have potential or was interesting but you didn’t quite grasp. time and experience obviously changes what resonates with you.

for most men: 27/28 = the fork in the road. you accept a life of mediocrity or you double down on winning. 30 = the age where older men actually start taking you seriously.

always worth remembering that Airbnb once had to fire thousands of call centre workers in the philippines because they were colluding with superhosts to remove negative feedback on a scale that was incomprehensible

you have to seek the education in the physical world that books could only dream of giving.

if you've not found work that makes you forget to eat, keep looking. it exists, and most ppl give up well before they find it.

this is effective because it can horrify, and fear is one of the few things in life that can *actually* drive change.

a technique that has helped me turn my life around multiple times is to visualise what my life would look like at 45 if I kept doing whatever it was I doing

an appalling take. there are many people who have been cursed with the most appalling internal conflicts so that we can be blessed with their art - the product of that pain.

there is no platform or marketplace where the supply side is as dire as Airbnb's.

worth remembering that even accounting for sleeping 8 hours/day (which very few people actually do) there are 112 hours in any given week. so for anyone "tight on time" your problem is not that you don't have enough, but simply that you are terrible at allocating it.

by mapping your ideal days out, you'll suddenly realise how much time you actually have and how much is wasted through your own mindless bullshit and that of others around you

zero point in arguing with anyone about your vision for life. simply execute and when it starts to come to fruition, they will start to understand, but never go after something to gain the understanding of others.

kids amplify who you are. if you were already driven they'll turbocharge you, and if you were already coasting you'll settle for the life you already have there and then.

nostalgia is a generous editor.

nothing possesses the power to momentarily transport you back in time in the way music does. opening riff of come as you are or chester benningtons voice and I am 13 again. ziggy stardust or rubber soul and I'm a kid in my dads car.

black ops, halo, and little league sports. thats what I feel. its crazy to me how you can look at a series of images and feel such a crushing wave of nostalgia. feel yourself in these moments. SWAT! SLAYER! can hear these songs and play the life movie in your head. little snippets of days where you didnt think of the future. the 5 senses uncaged. this is why music is awesome, because it so effortlessly anchors moments in time. nothing else quite like it.
