You’re CLUELESS About Risk Management
We all have some innate sense of risk-management. E.g. FEAR. And then we also have plenty learned methods of risk management. E.g. DIVERSIFICATION Alas we keep failing our “risk-management” in the modern world FEAR fails most of the time because most our modern “threats” are NOT mortal. Therefore you actually SHOULD take more …
About Childishness
I see a lot of adult children, childish I asked myself what is childishness? (I wrote about maturity previously: “About maturity”) A childish child: -doesn’t have responsibilities -lacks experience -lacks self-awareness (I suppose it’s a function of lacking experience) -doesn’t “fit in” (which is neither innately good nor bad. There is “good abnormal” …
Don’t Find Yourself In The Wrong Pursuit
You are only what you did today. Only what you tangibly improved today matters. Only what you tangibly improved today is real. You are only defined by what you tangibly did better today. You are only worthy if you were worthy today. Only good if you were good today. Not yesterday, and NOT tomorrow. I’ve …
Either Give Up Or Do Better
Either give up or do better. Never get used to failure. Never fail without good reason. Either give up already — or IMPROVE. It’s not “persistence” if you’re NOT improving. Either IMPROVE — or GIVE UP already. Even smallest improvement is a victory. But NOT improving is NOT acceptable. We have too many …

What many do is they TRADE responsibilities, They will take more responsibility for one thing — and give up responsibility for something else -1+1 = 0. You didn’t take more …
You Talk In Lieu of Action
You talk in lieu of action. When you don’t know what to do — you start talking. When you’re reluctant to do something — you start talking. When you know what to do — you just do it. There’s nothing to talk about. It’s ok to pause and think — if it’s followed by …
Politics Doesn’t Matter, Politics Matter
Politics won’t save you. Politics won’t solve your problems. Politics doesn’t make you a better human being. Not having a clue about politics is a virtue, rather than a vice. ….until it’s not. When politics go bad — it’s bad. When politics go bad — it can kill you. When politics go bad — …
The Falsely Humble, the Deluded Arrogant, and the Problem of Growth
-There’s what you say -There’s whether it’s true or not -There’s whether other’s find it true or not -The definition of arrogance is being very wrong when you say you’re very right -Therefore if others think you’re very wrong, and you are very confident that you’re right (and reveal it) — you are dubbed arrogant …
