You are born in the one period of human history where you can go on the computer all day. Your ancestors never had that opportunity, don’t waste it by going outside.

One of the clearest signs of high intelligence is not reacting or responding to words, energy, behaviors or people that try to control, manipulate, provoke, harass, or victimize you. Silence is the sweetest sabotage.

We should all stop with this modern obsession of having a perfectly balanced, optimised life (8 hours sleep, daily cardio + gym, eat well, deep work, etc.)

Most exceptional lives are heavily overallocated somewhere and any pursuit of greatness (in business, art, sport, research) requires big sacrifices.

Online gurus love selling this perfect recipe of life but reality is you only have a 24h day. No way you can sleep 8h, do 10k steps, gym, morning sunlight, read, eat perfectly, do 9h of deep work, see friends, maintain a relationship and somehow be happy through all of it.

I think a better thing for ambitious people is to think of life in seasons: a year obsessed with work, then a period focused on health, family, travel, etc. You can be massively overallocated to one thing for a while without deciding that’s what your entire life should look like. Balance probably makes more sense measured over years than every single day.

Why is leaving a company for more money considered disloyal, but replacing an employee with someone cheaper considered business?

Your brain also has a daily token limit and the reset button is sleep

the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it’s called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don’t care, but because you care too much.

Mistakes and failures are precisely your means of education. They tell you about your own inadequacies.

Understanding the power envy has in a democratic environment, Cosimo avoided the appearance of greatness.

This does not mean that greatness should be suffocated,

or that only the mediocre should survive;

only that a game of appearances must be played.

Most information is time-consuming, negative, irrelevant to your goals, and outside of your influence.

People who reach a high level of awareness become unsociable. Crowds drain them. Noise overwhelms them. Small talk feels like work. They chill different. A cozy room. Two people they trust. Good food. Music. Conversations that actually mean something. That’s where they feel alive. Depth over noise. Because for them... peace feels like home.

the art of being your own muse and recreating yourself as many times as you need, adding more layers and colour to your spirits canvas until you like what you see.
