Make entropy useful; own your destiny

  • Make something useful out of the entropy you generate.
  • Own your destiny instead of delegating it to someone else.
  • Do something hard. Hard things yield high learning rate.
  • Don’t die
  • Let’s be honest, it’s just funnier

things u will have to overcome

  • people. people will laugh at your ideas, your ambition … until you win
  • pain. pain is inevitable. bouddha said life is suffering, try to transform pain into learning, process your emotions regularly by journalling, ask yourself, why do i feel like this? is it my inner cardboard?
  • cofounder relationships. be empatethic. ask how your cofounders feel, take care of them. be nice. ask them feedback, put your ego away and get better, grow up
