Hey there!

It's Sunday, which means that it's time for an email packed with some great content, just for you.

Create value

Something I've been pondering lately: In life, nobody is owed anything.

You have to provide value to receive value.

And life is just a sequence of transactions.

So you'll have to find something to offer. Something valuable.

The more value you can offer, the more you can receive in return.

What's valuable? Something rare and in demand.

That's why I'm spending most of my time creating value.

How to create value

• Learn rare and high-demand skills

• Create and share useful content

• Synthesize and simplify ideas

• Help others

Principles

Let's talk principles.

Mine are always growing in number.

But I want to share a few of my core principles.

I hope you can benefit from them as much as I do.

• Always play the long game.

• Systems > Goals.

• You are your own standard. Compare only you to yourself.

• Strong convictions, loosely held.

• Embrace reality and deal with it.

• The Obstacle is the Way.

• Do interesting things. Share them publicly.

• Be 1% better every day.

• Be reliable.

• Put in your reps.

• Assume you are wrong and try to be less wrong.

I'd love to hear if you have some. Feel free to reply to this email and tell me about it.
