Open phone to do one specific thing. Forget what it was. Close phone. Remember. Open phone again. Humanity's greatest technological achievement is apparently helping me forget why I exist.

Before starting a deep focus session, write down a quick execution list with tiny sub-tasks. When you know exactly what step comes next, your brain doesn't get tempted to abandon ship and go scroll social media.

Multitasking is a neuroscientific myth. Your brain isn't doing two things at once; it's rapidly task-switching, and every single switch incurs a cognitive penalty. Knowledge workers lose up to 2 hours a day to this hidden tax.

Stop letting yesterday's unfinished to-do list bring shame into today. Write your top 3 priorities on an actual piece of paper each morning. At the end of the day, tear it up. Tomorrow gets a completely clean slate.

Checking your phone the second you wake up immediately puts you in reactive mode, spending your best morning energy on everyone else’s priorities. Before you touch a screen, name the 1–3 things that actually matter today.

Research shows that just having a smartphone sitting face-up on your desk, even if it's turned completely OFF drains about 20% of your cognitive power. If you need 100% of your brain, put the phone in another room.

Quick focus hack: Turn your phone screen to grayscale. Taking away the vibrant colors breaks the visual feedback loop that keeps you cycling through apps, giving you back up to an hour of your day.

Did you know the original iPhone shipped with ZERO push notifications? You had to open apps intentionally. Notifications were added later using slot-machine mechanics to build habit loops. Go turn off 90% of them today.

Your brain isn't broken and you aren't lazy. If you can't focus, it's because your smartphone's default setting were engineered by behavioral scientists to beat your innate human biology. Time to change the settings.

Call it a FIDO score, because that's what it is Good dog. You sit. You stay. You make your payments on time. You get a treat. They raise your credit limit, pat you on the head, and say, “Good dog” Most people spend their whole lives chasing a higher score without ever asking who's holding the leash.

If three traffic cones can change his direction, four investors can change his principles. Put him under pressure and he’ll probably sell your company before lunch.

The data suggests they are not bored or purposeless. They are the busiest, most engaged people on Earth. They just are not doing it for money.

If you are smart and broke, the problem is ego. 🥂

One of the best book which is dedicated to logic and system not like airport self helpbook.

Honor is a reputation among others. Integrity is a reputation with yourself Never sacrifice integrity for honor. Honor can be reclaimed Integrity often cannot.

*Work backwards for outcome. J.Schulman, co-founder of OpenAl, splits research into two modes: hunting for things to improve, or choosing an outcome you genuinely want to exist and reasoning backwards to the experiments A goal you actually care will drag you into territory no survey paper covers.

Richard Hamming asked every colleague at Bell Labs what the most important problem in their field was. Then why they were not working on it. People changed tables to avoid him. He became one of the most productive researchers of the 20th century. *Pick the problem that you actually care about.
