We have robots that will soon sometimes take some of those tasks for us and that’s great, what does that leave? Well that leaves creativity, how do you get to creativity, it’s not constantly working, its not seeing how many days or hours or weeks you can be productive as you’re banging your head against a wall to be towards something”…[Listen for More]

“The important thing is to manage your priorities not your time, I think of our task lists as a power log distribution and that the most important thing I could be doing right now is more important than all of the other things combined, I think internalising opportunity cost is huge and we could literally be doing anything right now so in that sense what we are doing right now comes at the expense of doing everything else and if you’re doing something that’s low on the priority list, that has a really high unseen cost because every minute you spend on something that’s not important comes at the expense of something that is really important”…[Listen for More]

“Regardless of how much time you’re putting in just get started. You got to have motion you got to have movement and right now there are so little barriers to entry to starting a business, to getting your idea off the ground if you start with the MVP mentality of just like lets just see if we can get something going, it might just take like 3 hours a week, maybe that’s all you have, 3 hours a week but if you take those 3 hours and you make the most of them, you’d be surprised at what you can accomplish if you have consistency, doing it every single week so that you can earn more of your time to be able to do it, don’t let the little excuses of not having enough time prevent you from not getting the ball rolling”…[Listen for More]

“Engage your curiosity. Curiosity will get you through a lot. We get so fixed sometimes on how something looks or how something should be or we worry about if something is going to turn out a certain way, what other people are going to think about us it goes on and on and on. Whatever circumstance that you’re in if you can shift from whatever state of being you’re in that has you feeling diminished or concerned or angry or upset or any of those states of being, if you can shift yourself into curiosity then that is a bridge to be much more positive and making decisions from a place that’s not based in fear or anger”…[Listen for More]
