The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.

50-50-90 Rule

If you have a fifty-fifty chance of getting something right, there’s a ninety percent probability you’ll get it wrong.

— Andy Rooney

To get the job you want, master the one you have.

— Barry Diller

Your primary job is time allocation.

Go out for a walk. It doesn't have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn't have to be a walk during which you'll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter.

No amount of sophistication is going to allay the fact that all your knowledge is about the past and all your decisions are about the future.

— Ian Wilson

Consistently good is way better than occasionally great.

Think again — It’s okay to change your mind. Being humble enough to rethink, to change your mind to be open to new evidence, ideas and thoughts is a game changer. Being wrong isn’t a bad thing, on the contrary being able to shift your beliefs with new information is powerful.

Mastery is earned — You can’t buy it, it can’t be gifted, it can’t be hacked. If you want to master something, put the work in.
