Always follow your ABC’s 

asset is not your home your share

2:43

portfolio or your PSA 10 Charizard it's

2:46

the hours of work you can sell over your

2:47

lifetime anything you can do to improve

2:50

the value of those hours be it

2:51

upskilling voting for proworker policies

2:54

or just making sure you're spending your

2:55

valuable time well should make you

2:57

richer in the long term more than almost

2:59

anything else assuming you don't already

3:01

have a huge portfolio of other assets or

3:04

take on too much debt in the process now

3:06

logically this means that anything that

3:08

threatens the value of this asset should

3:10

be really alarming to you a machine or

3:12

program that can do all or even part of

3:14

your job is such a threat it's

3:17

competition in the market for work that

3:18

makes your own hours less competitive

3:20

and therefore less valuable

Reading and watching

I do for a living I usually say writer i

0:07

spend basically all my time either

0:10

writing these videos writing code

0:12

writing my fiction podcasts or writing

0:14

music over the years of tweaking my

0:16

writing environment I've noticed a

0:17

subtle change every improvement to my

0:19

writing systems improves my ability to

0:22

think and reason about my work and my

0:24

life looking into the psychology it's

0:27

actually quite simple increasing the

0:29

bandwidth between our mind in our brain

0:30

and our mind on the page simply allows

0:33

us to think faster and better according

0:35

to the extended mind thesis and it turns

0:38

out that in a very real way writing is

0:42

thinking

So I’m going to buy this.
