It’s not how you work with the time you have, but how you make the time you have work for you.

Backpropagation…
…is a neural network’s way of accepting and working on its flaws.
That’s why they learn and excel.
Be like a neural network.
Life is a game
You don’t win all the time.
It’s more about the k/d.
You stop growing…
…when you stop seeing room to grow.
When fighting a war…
…you have to feed and equip your soldiers well.
When you write a heartfelt farewell email…
…but people ignore every line except those with their @names.
In the presence of experts…
…, speak less and listen more.
Trying too hard to impress is like stripping in public – you bare your ignorance for all to shame.
An impending market crash on the news…
…is a market crash that won’t materialize.
Ways to stop yourself before you even start
“You’re at odds with others with much more resources.”
“If it was that good, someone smarter would’ve thought of it.”
“That’s in theory. Real life doesn’t work like that.”
“You’re not qualified enough.”
You can gauge a person’s ability to succeed…
…from the way the person responds to setbacks.
