If you want to start a new regular habit, then don’t just start it randomly and hope that you’ll stick to it… you won’t, you’ll inevitably fall off. Use James Clear’s concept of habit stacking instead - identify a current habit that you already do then add on the new habit

The 2 stand-outs for me are 1. Birth rate decline 2. Super-human AI We definitely need to talk about both of these issues in more depth

There are 4 laws of successfully starting new habits: 1. Make it obvious - design your environment to cue your habit - e.g. I get my trainers out for my morning run the night before and put them in plain sight of when I wake up 2. Make it attractive - group your habit with

Make sure high pressure environments don’t cause your presence to shrink - meeting with your boss, speeches, team discussions. The key to doing this is changing your nervous script like “I’m going to mess this up”, “I’m underqualified”, “everyone is judging me” to a

Absolutely yes. Physical ways to hold strong room presence: 1. Open and elongate your posture - open chest, relaxed & rolled back shoulders, upright spine. TAKE UP SPACE, DON’T SHRINK 2. Breathe into your diaphragm - this means inhalations thru nose for 4 seconds, hold for 2

Make sure you know how to use purposeful hand gestures to hold a strong presence when you speak. 1. Ensure they are smooth (not frantic) 2. Palms facing upwards and outwards away from your torso 3. Non-verbal-verbal sychrony - so your hands move only at the moment your words

This is unfortunately a common curse of high standards - failure is felt as a catastrophe and succeeding is felt as just doing what’s expected. It should be reframed into success feeling like a win and failure feeling like information NOT part of your identity.

Trajectory > Current Position is something I’ve reiterated before yes. But also many people tend to live for peak experiences but your life is made up of ordinary Mondays, so one of your goals in life should be building towards making your ordinary Monday feel pretty good.

I believe how you respond to failure is a key to success. 87% of self-made billionaires under 40 have been previously involved in failed start-ups. You should not to see failure as catastrophe but use it to motivate yourself to improve. But how ? My 3 step process: 1. Separate

The inner citadel is an old concept that has become very important in today’s world/social media where people live under 24/7 evaluation. I think you need one to maintain your happiness. Your inner citadel is where you don’t let external events harm you directly ➡️ instead you

To dispel a common myth: strong presence in professional environments is not about displaying dominance. It is about expressing your competence comfortably. Key to this is knowing your inner story - your abilities,your strengths,your identity,your values. Have examples for each.

Studies show upright, expansive posture results in better mood & more confidence. Contractive postures increase feelings of stress and insecurity. Expansive posture - open chest with shoulders rolled back, upright spine, your feet a hip-width apart, arms relaxed by sides with

A hack to achieving your goals (and also productivity), is defining the smallest possible next action. Motivation to achieving your goals drops when the perceived effort is too high. Smaller actions restore control & generate momentum. My classic example of this is how I write

Maybe short-term, because AI companies are struggling to find profitability avenues atm. But when future models can reason, express when they’re unsure & self-correct their errors, the bubble will infinitely expand into every industry. Investing in AI funds is an obvious play.

When you succeed, people want to reshape your story into something that isn’t true (will explain why later). This only happens because your story carries meaning, impact or power. You must remember this. It’s key to developing a resilient mindset which is not affected by others.

Why do people do this ? Research shows people actually experience pleasure when a successful person falls (this is called Schadenfreude) so they will even go to the extent of falsely reshaping their story to invent a fall. Study participants were uncomfortable admitting this

For many people, procrastination is something they do to protect themselves from public failure by staging a private deniable failure instead. “If I try and fail, then my lack of ability is why I failed” “If I delay and fail, my effort is what failed me, not my ability”

Visualisation is the biggest thing that improved my consistency. In my dead time like driving or eating,I visualise performing the things that I will do later on in the day. I believe this works by strengthening nerve pathways that makes your output feel automatic not effortful.

Happy New Year guys. The holiday paradox is something I’ve been thinking about a lot. Whilst on holiday (or a trip somewhere new), time seems to go quickly. Whereas after a holiday/trip, time seems to stretch out due to the new experiences creating many distinct memory markers.

Unreasonable hatred fuels me. People who speak evidence-based & logical truths will always be hated by blinkered people who can only handle a sugar-coated view of reality.Embrace it. Because if every (or almost every) single person likes what you do,you’re not uncovering truths.
