On competition

Chapter III - Action

On ending

On time

TLDR

"Fuck, don’t give a fuck and don’t be fucked over."
-- Unknown

Nine general advices:

"Life is a balancing act."
-- Unknown

"The root of our problems is our inability to let go."
-- Leo Babauta

"Avoiding relevant conflict will not keep peace, will rot it."
-- E. Ferreira

"All self-help boils down to «choose long-term over short-term»."
-- Naval Ravikant

"If more information was the answer we’d all be billionaires with six packs."
-- Derek Sivers

"The empire long divided, must unite; long united, must divide."
-- Proverb

"A prophet has no honour in his own country."

Two practical advices:

  • Have more than one child.
  • Moving in a direction opposite to what we are doing right now where we are not successful often guarantee success.

One last advice for introverts:

  • Aim at relying on your network and not at being self-sufficient.
