One cold email can completely change your life. Here’s how to write a great one:

What education does is provide a curated experience to help you learn. Done well, it sifts through the myriad resources, possible paths, and common errors and says: > read *this* (not that) book > practice *this* skill first > be wary of making *this* mistake

Hollow Abstraction: An abstraction that sounds coherent, but lacks a specific referent Most people are easy targets for HAs, because they draw conclusions from abstractions without checking if they're hollow. Hollow Abstraction is the mental model that best explains web3, IMO.

People struggle to give themselves structure because they start with an ideal routine and try to make themselves conform. A truly sustainable structure looks like a constellation of tailor-made systems that help you better live your life as it is, and pursue your heart's desires
