There are at least 7 ways you're wasting personal energy. Stopping energy leaks is one of the quickest ways to power up. Leaders who eliminate energy leaks add several hours of power to each day. This 🧵 details all 7 Recognize any of these? 👇

@elerianm US market capital is not American. “In less than two decades the share of foreign-owned American assets accounted for by American stocks has almost tripled, rising from a low of 21% in the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2007-09 to a record 58% today” @TheEconomist

From the IMF: "In the European Union, young firms—those founded less than 50 years ago—have a combined stock market valuation of $5 trillion, against $42.9 trillion in the US. This reflects more limited European integration. Its capital markets remain fragmented; labor mobility is constrained; and selling products and services across borders is often complex." #economy #productivity #growth #markets @IMFNews

@elerianm (iii) they’re angling for the appointment. Will the balance of the year not reveal the answer on self imposed inflation?

As you know, two Federal Reserve Governors dissented on Wednesday for the first time in over 30 years. Today, they published their reasons for doing so (federalreserve.gov), stressing the risk of a "wait and see" approach to policy. Relative to what Chair Powell said at his post-FOMC press conference, they are (i) more concerned about a potential weakening of the economy and, in particular, of the labor market; and (ii) less worried about the risk of persistent inflationary pressures from tariffs. #economy #markets #federalreserve #jobs #inflation

@jwginn Everything is based on relationships. Love what you're writing on this round of ship30!

Yesterday I shared what I wish I’d known 4 years ago about building meaningful relationships. Today, I’m zooming out. Here’s what I’ve learned about connection over 40 years

@bernardopbrega This is really clever. I think many of us buy the book based on title / synopsis, but some books hit way harder than others. Love this framework and woudl love to see you unpack how to do each of these 5 steps

5 Steps to Decide If a Non-Fiction Book Is Worth Reading (And Still Capture the Key Ideas)

@jwginn Love this idea!

If you know me, you know how much I love connection. I love ideas like this on fun ways to stand out when communicating. Be memorable!

You're neglecting at least 1 of these 4 energy sources

Time is fixed. Energy is fluid.

@WendyThePoohMN This is jam packed with wisdom! Can I share one: bold the lessons so the pop right off the essay. People can scan the key points more and dig in rather than sifting through the copy to find that beautiful wisdom!

After being in the working world for a long time, I've learned a few things.

@ViiSSGG Yes! unless they are developers, customers don't speak developer. Its so easy to fall into jargon. In any field. I feel like I could say the same thing to people who work in international development. I need to equivalent for 'dont speak geek' in that domain...

@TMFOtter @Fistula_Fdtn @TMFOtter great to see you back in action on fistula! We need more collaboration and progress to make this scourge a thing of the past!

I recently rejoined the board of @Fistula_Fdtn having spent 8 years on it through 2021. This foundation provides life-changing surgeries to women who have suffered devastating and untreated childbirth injuries, conditions that are almost unheard of in the West. Today the Fistula Foundation provides more of these surgeries than anyone else, including the UN. Kate Grant is the just-retired president of the Fistula Foundation and recently wrote a book called No Woman Left Behind that maps her journey from a successful but unfulfilled ad executive to a professional life in the service of some of the world’s most disenfranchised people. The book, like Kate, is astounding. One of our primary partners is the Panzi Hospital in Congo, whose director Denis Mukwege won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2018 for his efforts to treat women who have suffered sexual violence. Dr. Mukwege is joining Kate on Thursday to have a conversation about their work and her new book. There's a registry in the link below. And read Kate’s book! It will blow you away. #preorder" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">fistulafoundation.org/no-woman-left-…

@Poor__Old The muscle loss is real! I find that if I'm not strong, I'm getting injured more. Gotta get back on the weights!

Muscle Protein Synthesis and the Importance of Muscle. As I learned from my physical therapist. Day 3 of Ship 30 for 30.

@JWigsmoen and always eat the fiber (veggies) first! Plus Brassica every day!

Short list of life-changing habits: 1) Eat fat more than sugar 2) Drink coffee more than smoothies 3) Eat breakfast rather than skip 4) Use the oven more than the microwave 5) Eat Greek yogurt more than ice cream Your whole life changes when you eat for satiety rather than dopamine.

@TheMattViera mine too! I am surrounded in disorder and have only just started to fully understand the cost of that. Its like a leaky bucket! left unchecked it will consume all your fire!

@sethcochran Great information Seth! One of my biggest energy leaks is digital clutter. I guess that would fall under the umbrella of "cluttered systems."

@jwginn This is solid gold advice because it starts with listening. I am so much more likely to respond to someone I have seen in my comments. and then so much more likely to start a relationship with said person.

Cold DMs don’t build relationships. This one weekly ritual does.

🔋 Negative self-talk (7/7) You are a high achiever and you push yourself hard. But you can be harsh sometimes. You were once a 7 year old. Speak to yourself like you would speak to that kid: with positive, affirming dialog that is both kind and understanding.
