Something I try to keep in mind while writing: What’s obvious to you can be magic to others. - Dickie Bush

Reminder to self: be aggressively patient.

Execute relentlessly in the short-term. But zoom out to let those efforts compound.

Impatience with actions. Patience with results.

One 21st-century superpower:

Learning to write fast.

If there is no friction between an idea in your head and a well-fleshed-out 200-word paragraph explaining it, you can be unstoppable.

I’m convinced the single most powerful force of progress is momentum. When you have it, life is on easy mode and it’s easy to keep it. But society is designed to take it from you, so protect it at all costs. When you’re without it, start building it as quickly as you can. One small win. Then another. Then another. Before you know it you’re back riding the wave of progress.
