20 years in ecommerce, now CEO of a CRO agency. Probably doing analysis in R or building stuff with AI. Or walking on the beach. Yeah, probably that.

Learned something interesting from the CEO of a fairly big tech co. Usually 28 year olds are more productive programmers than 22 year olds, because they have more experience. But apparently 22 year olds are now as good as 28 year olds because they're more at ease using AI.
Paul Grahamx.com“How will I wish I’d used this time?” Asking this question always brings me back to joy, because the answer is never “Waiting for things to change.” Usually, it’s more like “Living the best version of my life as it is right now.” (from TED article)
Writers must therefore constantly ask: what am I trying to say?
Surprisingly often they don’t know.
Then they must look at what they have written and ask: have I said it?
Is it clear to someone encountering the subject for the first time?
On Writing Well, William Zinsser
Every obstacle is a test.
It's you showing yourself ->
A. if you are the person to give up, or
B. if you are the person who overcomes.
What you believe about yourself, will determine everything else.
Work to overcome, Always.

Let me say it again, because it’s that important: intentionally developing your Ask muscle is a REQUIREMENT for entrepreneurial success. The question, of course, is how you do it.

Your chances of fixing the company are significantly greater if you take care of yourself first and make sure you’re in the right headspace before making sudden decisions.
