Finding this magic isn’t straightforward. It’s a process of trial and error. It involves tinkering with your thoughts, challenging your beliefs, and stepping out of your comfort zones. And just as in scientific experiments, where a different input or environment can affect the outcome, the formula you once discovered may change as your

You need that reward at the end to pull you forward into doing, and you need to iterate. And iterate does not mean repetition. Iterate is not mechanical. It’s not 10,000 hours, it’s 10,000 iterations. It’s not time spent. It’s learning loops. And what iteration means is you do something and then you stop and you pause and you reflect.

So here are my new rules:
As you experiment, keep checking in, and asking questions:

- Am I enjoying it?
- Is it helping or

1) Explore widely. Find out what is possible.
2) Test cheaply. Run small, quick experiments. Sample things.

These are powerful questions and I the version of it I would ask you today is:
- What are you most curious about?
- What is your unique perspective or way of helping in this domain?

We experience time in a very different way from people immersed in flat schedules and story-less surfaces.
Tyson Yunkaporta • Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World
“To indigenous, oral cultures, the ceaseless flux that we call 'time' is overwhelmingly cyclical in character. The senses of an oral people are still attuned to the land around them, still conversant with the expressive speech of the winds and the forest birds, still participant with the sensuous cosmos. Time, in such a world, is not separable from
