Notes for May 1

It's funny how often the problem is you. 

Trust makes money.

Abnormal people produce abnormal returns.

Predicting rain doesn't count.  Building arks does.

Get rid of your phone for hours at a time, forget it on purpose -- same with email -- work toward checking email 2x per day and eliminate texting -- call people on the phone.

Ice cold showers post-workout.

Try to think of 25 ideas in 10 minutes.

When a girl flakes on you, that's just lack of comfort.  She feels she does not know you, nor does she have anything invested in you.  Create a stronger impression of who you are and make her feel more comfortable being around you. 

Try to be consistently not stupid, instead of trying to be very intelligent.

Extraordinary discipline does not eliminate losses.  It only prevents foolish losses. 

Short sentences stick. 

Successful people deal with failure. 

What's the problem I gotta solve today?

Test your assumptions instead of letting others think for you. 

Only action validates theoretical knowledge.

Speed impresses, but accuracy kills.
