operating principles

look, it’s hard to make decisions sometimes.

this list makes it easier because it mostly just reminds me that i do actually know the right decision to make and i need to stop being a bitch about it.

which is why the first principle is:

eat the glass.

chompy chompy nom nom.

do the hard thing. someone has to do the hard thing and when the hard thing is in front of you it’s your turn to do it. nobody likes to eat the glass but the person that eats the most glass wins more prizes than the other guy.

eat the glass and you will shit diamonds. so eat the glass and be grateful for the crunch.

aka, no one regrets getting jacked.

do more, with less, on fewer things.

focus fucks.

everybody wants to do everything.

no. stop it. get help. [link to michael jordan meme]

narrow your attention, seek fewer shortcuts, and then put. in. the. work.

the rocket goes straight up by stripping what’s unnecessary and picking exactly one destination.

swarm your greatest opportunity.

leverage expires.

go all-in on the thing that has the most potential. it won’t last forever, and you don’t get to keep it on a shelf, asshole.

go. after. it.

fuck your mood, follow the plan.

do the thing you said you’d do.

it’s simple, and it’s rarely easy: you don’t wanna? too bad.
