Wealth
1/ The Book is Just the Beginning: Every time someone buys your book, you’re creating downstream business for yourself because that reader is now a potential client – Joshua Lisec
2/ More Ideas, Less Fluff: If you’re writing a book and find yourself done after 10,000 words, broaden your topic and look at it from different perspectives instead of giving more examples throughout the book. “It’s usually that the book idea isn’t broad enough, that’s where the the fluff problem happens” – Joshua Lisec
3/ A-Rod’s 90% Rule: Be happy leaving 10% of the deal on the table to encourage a long term partnership. “It’s not fun getting rich by yourself” - Alex Rodriguez
4/ 3 Lessons for Success From Magic Johnson:
- You always want to stay relevant
- Go out for speaking engagements
- Surround yourself with a world-class team
5/ Beware of Doge: While a fun meme, Dogecoin is an old fork of Bitcoin that’s not maintained and runs protocol risks from being merge mined with Litecoin. Be careful where you put your money – Nic Carter
Health
6/ Naps Can Be a Trap: Naps are a double-edged sword: if you have trouble sleeping, do not nap; if you sleep well at night napping before 2 pm is ok – Dr. Matthew Walker
7/ 98.6 Is Fake News: 98.6 degrees is supposedly normal but that was decided in the 1800s and is actually false - Radiolab
Wisdom
8/ Be Better Than Your Parents: You can’t control what your parents do or have done, so you have to become stronger than any of it to be free, and freedom comes from growth – Tony Robbins
9/ It’s Not About The Money: “If you look at life through the framework of money you’ll miss most of the picture” - Dave Chappelle
10/ Economics is Hubris: The conceit of modern economics is “thinking you can model human behavior in these unbelievably complex systems” – Nic Carter
