The Almanack of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness - Eric Jorgenson
- Play long term games with long term people. If you can't see yourself working with your boss for ten years, don't work with them for more than a minute (Not literally 👀, but make sure you're comfortable with that happening). Applies to friends as well.
- Leverage code, design and media to create assets that can work, solve problems and make money while you sleep, or rest. Money doesn't follow hard work. Money follows solutions that SCALE.
- Learn mental models, Study applied science (Mathematics, Physics, Macro economics, Game Theory ). Focus on the basic principles rather than the advanced concepts.
- Learn to argue two opposing views no matter your personal opinion.
- Aspire to be free from anger and expectations. Learn to live way below your means.
- Value your time above all else. Don't waste it in activities that are not productive. Play but on your own terms.
- Imagine that you are worth $5000 per hour. How would you spend your time?
- If someone spends a lot of time convincing you to invest, don't do it.
- Money is made in sprints not in a marathon, compound knowledge, skills and goodwill will open you to compound earning opportunities.
- Avoid zero sum games, play positive sum games
- Don't compromise, always go for a win-win outcome
- Don't lie to your self and others
