1: Naval Ravikant’s Playbook to The Good Life

“Fast, lift, sprint, stretch, and meditate.

Build, sell, write, create, invest, and own.

Read, reflect, love, seek truth, and ignore society.

Make these habits. Say no to everything else.

Avoid debt, jail, addiction, disgrace, shortcuts, and media.

Relax. Victory is assured.”

3: Harry Stebbings on Obsession

“The thing I find funny that no one really likes to say, if you want to start a company and be successful… you have to be obsessed. Like you have to truly be addicted to it. It can work without but wow, it will be harder without true unwavering obsession.”
