Easy days make you soft. May they be few and far between.

They need you. Show up. Work hard. Lead.

What a blessing it is to be exhausted as a result of having the life you prayed for. Get up and be grateful—not everybody is so fortunate.

Sometimes all you get are 4 hours of sleep. So be it. The world is full of well-rested failures; I won’t be one of them. Get up. Get to work. Be the exception.

Choose the difficult path. Get accustomed to hard work and delayed gratification. That’s where growth happens.

It’s Friday—finish strong.

Proverbs 6:10-11, “A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber…” Get up. Kill that weak voice which begs you to slumber.

Success is slow, and hard. Quitting won’t make it fast or easy. Get up. Do the work. Go!

Sampson@jonathansampson·3 Mar

Make a habit of doing what others are unwilling to do.

Injured a rib doing BJJ last night. Can’t breathe, stand, turn, or twist without pain. Slept horribly. But, momma didn’t raise no wuss—there’s work to do 🫠

If your days are easy, be thankful, and work to make them harder. Your future self will be grateful.

I was just chatting with an LLM about refactoring some tests when—instead of presenting me with a raw input field alone to solicit feedback—it also presented me with three buttons, representing three different options. Subtle change, but makes the whole experience resemble the old Choose Your Own Adventure books 🙂

Now this is how you carefully and responsibly roll-out agentic browsing 🙂 Put it in a pre-release build behind an experimental flag, and—if/when the user enables it—restrict it to an isolated environment away from the user's potentially-sensitive session data. Check out AI browsing in @BraveNightly today, and let us know what you think! Brave Nightly can be installed alongside your release build of Brave without conflict.

Today we're releasing AI browsing in Brave Nightly, our early access build. AI browsing enables Brave's built-in AI assistant Leo to perform tasks on behalf of the user. This feature is transformational, but it’s also risky. Here's how we're protecting users...

A few days ago I received my purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from professor Frederico Gracie. With it came a customary throw from our resident Judo black belt (he asked twice about any injuries I may have had—such a gentleman, lol—before hitting me with a ippon seoi nage). What a joy it is to continue growing in this sport. It will certainly put some miles on you (I had hair in the 2022 photo, lol), but what you gain in exchange is worth the trouble.

After 1.5 years of fighting (including 50lbs lost, injuries to both biceps, a separated shoulder, a few severe bites through my tongue, and now something possibly-torn in my left knee) I was honored to be promoted to blue belt last weekend at my Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym. Worth it.

The gym at this San Francisco hotel gets a bit crowded at 5am, and it’s tough to get a treadmill. Solution, just wake up earlier! 🙃

@Brave grew to over 101.6M Monthly Active Users (MAU) in October 2025. Brave browser showed typical October growth, below-average on MAU with average DAU growth. Brave Search had above-average growth, with nearly 10% of QPD coming from non-Brave browsers. Growth is good. 1/4

BrendanEich@BrendanEich

@Brave passed 100M Monthly Active Users (MAU) in September 2025. DAU grew faster, past 42M. Blog post at brave.com/blog/100m-mau/. Brave Search at 1.66B Queries Per Month (QPM) annualizes to 19.49B QPY. Non-Brave-browser search users grew 10% in September (7.60% → 8.36%). 1/4

The early hours test your resolve. While most are asleep, you’re already putting in the work — unseen, uncelebrated, but not unnoticed by time. These quiet sacrifices build the strength others will one day see. Keep showing up.

Aspiration is a heavy load to bear—anything truly worth doing rarely comes easy. But as you persist, your legs strengthen, your shoulders broaden, and the weight feels lighter. Keep moving forward. Keep pressing on.

Get up, let’s go! Do what others are unwilling to do, and you’ll have the results that they could only dream of attaining. Growth is merely the combination of effort and time. Persist!
