It's amazing that people share their personal version of this story w. me after writing this post 10 months ago. @matthewmagdales/how-mattermark-changed-my-life-74e6c8ec5484?source=tw-626d00e9ec67-1437056089080" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@matthewmagdal

Let me add to this to clarify...when I was young, one great piece of advice I got was be the non-complainer. When asked by someone to do something, I would do it. When asked to build a deck, I did it. And obsessed about every word, transition, image and animation until I felt it was pixel perfect. This took time. When asked to build a model, not only did I try to understand the purpose, I made the model flexible, structurally sound and elegant. This took time. When asked to work on a project, I took it on head first, developed some sense of it and then wrote a few pages explaining what I had learned and why it may be valuable as the project went forward, or didn't. This took time. Meanwhile, I didn't have time to gossip, I didn't have time to make friends at work, I didn't have time to complain. I made myself indispensable to my superiors by being a reliable worker. They then took me into the rooms they were in because I was essential to them doing well. Eventually, as they transitioned further upwards, I took command of the rooms they used to run. This is how the process is supposed to work. So if you want to get into the rooms where it happens, don't complain and don't get distracted. Be a reliable worker to those you work for and with. The rest takes care of itself.

2023 didn’t go the way I personally expected it to. In a world that is far from perfect - there is always room for gratitude. “We cannot control everything that happens to us in this life, but we can control how we respond” Here’s to a better 2024 to everyone who needs it!

We need to get away from Big Food, and the only way to do so is to invest in local food chains. That's why I'm super bullish on tools, marketplaces, and software that makes it easy to do so. "Shopify for local food" is so needed, and will be huge.

One sign that determination matters more than talent: there are lots of talented people who never achieve anything, but not that many determined people who don't.

9. The price of rapid improvement is repeated failure. Doubt and discomfort are the entry price of excellence. It's your choice to play this game, of course. But if you do, recognize that there are no shortcuts to hard work and struggle.

7/ Prior mental framework was "my boy is in town, maybe we can grab drinks if our schedules allow, if not, no problem, next time" New mental framework is: "tonight is one of your last 30 times you can see one of your best friends in your life" 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

@aymanalabdul Actually, no lol. Every time I open it up, I die a little inside. It's insanely slow, wildly bloated, and the basic functional workflows are so convoluted. I need to migrate to something else. What should I use?

better version: cultures either believe all problems are solvable, or none of them are. the former ascend and the latter decline.
