General worrying will give you rumination. Specific worrying will give you next steps. - George Mack

If you compliment someone behind their back, the listener respects your loyalty. If you gossip about someone behind their back, the listener starts wondering if you'll do the same once their back is turned.

The easiest way to increase my bias to action is to say to myself: “I’m not thinking small enough.” If you’re delaying eating an elephant, think of the smallest bite. If the elephant is too big, try an organ, if too big, try an individual cell, if too big, try an atom, if too big, try a proton, if too big, try a quark. You start with a few quarks on your plate, the 3 tiniest steps imaginable, and before you know it, you’ve got an elephant shaped stomach.

Good rule of thumb for creating content: Don't optimise for views. Optimise for memory. 100 people remembering your work 1 year later > 1 million views today that are forgotten tomorrow. You don't want an audience that has dementia.
