A wise man told me once a pen can make mistake and a pencil can make mistake too, but a pencil has a good friend, eraser so both of them can fix the mistake. That is the important thing to have a great friends to have a great partner.

Hot take: Entrepreneurship is just an intentional self development.

confidence culture sells you a feeling. but the feeling is not what you need. what you need is evidence. and evidence only comes from action. stop trying to feel ready. start building to be competent. Competent bring confidence.

you are not waiting for confidence. you are waiting for a guaranteed outcome before you act. those are very different problems. one can be solved. the other is just fear with better vocabulary.

the most productive thing i did last month was stop earlier than i thought i should. the hour i protected became the idea that the next three weeks were built on. rest is not the pause between the work. it is part of the work.

Humble enough to realize that I know little. And Aware enough to study more..

I used to measure my value by how much I produced. rest felt like a confession that I was not serious enough. then I noticed that my best work never came from exhaustion. it came from the space after the rest and calm mind.

the best idea you will have this week will not arrive during the sprint. it will arrive in the gap. the walk. the shower. the morning before the pressure starts. rest is not time off from the work. it is a different kind of work.

average is the most dangerous place to be right now. AI does average faster and cheaper than you ever will. the only safe place is being so specifically yourself that there is no training data for it.

the most dangerous thing someone can tell you is "that's just how it works." it works that way because nobody bothered to try a different way.

please normalize leaving situations that drain you without explaining yourself to everyone. your peace doesn't need an explanation.

the most dangerous thing isn't what other people say about you. it's what you say about yourself. when you make a mistake. when you look in the mirror. when something doesn't go the way you planned. your brain is always listening. talk to yourself like someone worth becoming.

The best founders are master storytellers . Do you agree?

@simonsquibb Hi Simon I am building an app to helps people regain their focus after being destroyed by distractions. Many young people can’t focus more than 5 minutes. The app name is Quick Focus. For everyone who wants to try here is the link: quickfocused.com Thank you Simon.

Funding another dream this Sunday! What’s your dream? 👇🏻

If you have problems with focus or easy to get distracted. I highly recommend you to use this app for 30 days. Here you go: quickfocused.com Thank me later..

Every single day. before it's working. before anyone is watching. before there's any proof it's going to be okay. That's the whole game. Believe it will work out. Then go make it true.

Nothing happens. Because belief opens the door. You still have to walk through it. The people who actually build things aren't the ones who never doubt. They're the ones who doubt and show up anyway.

You've been taking advice from the most biased source in your life. Your own doubt. And it has never once been right about what you're capable of. Your brain believes whatever you tell it. Tell it things won't work out. It will find every reason to prove you right.
