First-Principles Thinking Q: Where does first-principles thinking come from? “When you want to do something new, you have to apply the physics approach. Physicists discover counterintuitive new things, like quantum mechanics. They do that by thinking from ‘first principles’: building their reasoning from the ground up.” “I would encourage people to use the mental tools of physics and apply them broadly in life. They are the best tools.” “The normal way we conduct our lives is reasoning by an…

​"Who you become is defined by what you’re willing to struggle for. People want an amazing physique, but you don't get it unless you legitimately appreciate the pain and physical stress that comes with living inside a gym for hours upon hours. True desire is measured by what you are willing to suffer for." - The Subtle Art of Not giving a F*ck

If you haven't read hundreds of books, you are functionally illiterate, and you will be incompetent, because your personal experiences alone aren't broad enough to sustain you. — James N. Mattis

“It doesn’t make sense to continue wanting something if you’re not willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don’t want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment.” -Atomic Habits

Double Your Rate of Failure Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It’s quite simple. Double your rate of failure. — Thomas J. Watson The only way to escape from the prison of fear is action. — Joe Tye Book: Attitude Is Everything by Jeff Keller

The 2nd Form of Wealth Health is a type of wealth. If you don’t feel good physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, all the money, possessions and fame in the world mean nothing. “When we are young, we are willing to sacrifice all of our health for the pursuit of wealth and once we are old, we become willing to sacrifice all of our wealth for even one day of good health.” All change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end. And that nothing tastes as good as top …

Avoiding Pain > Pleasure Very astute and observant people know that what a person insults you with is often nothing more than the label they can’t acknowledge they actually give themselves. If you realize this, you can keep your cool in such a conversation. If not, you may get hooked into a mutual ego-defense session—i.e., an argument—with the person, unknowingly accepting their invitation to play a particular shadow game with them. People work harder to avoid pain than to get pleasure. While…

Where Attention Goes, Energy Flows “Since where you place your attention is where you place your energy, when you wake up in the morning and immediately start putting your attention and energy on all the people you have to see that day, the places you have to go, the objects you own, and the things you have to do in the three-dimensional world, your energy becomes fractured.
