We're coming out of a 15 year run of being afraid of our own shadow. It infected and paralyzed our culture, our society, our politics, our economics, and our view of technology. It's over, at least in the US. 🇺🇸

Yeah this is why I see all those Americans moving to Europe, instead of the other way around
- Europe has a welfare system.
- Europe has free higher education.
- Europe has great public transport.
- Europe has a higher life expectancy.
- Europe has a much lower cost of living.
- Europe has good and cheap healthcare.
- Europe has a much higher standard of quality of life than the US in almost every measurable category.
Europe is already great,
especially compared to the US.

Caring about everything is a disaster.
Caring about nothing is also a disaster.
Nurture the small pocket of things that truly matter to you.

Your life becomes meaningful in precise proportion to the depths of the responsibility you are willing to shoulder.

Cut the crap.
Literally, cut the unnecessary distractions out of your life—delete apps, unfriend and unfollow toxic people, stop committing to activities you don't care about. Life is too short.

Eventually, the time that was not spent on learning skills will catch up with you, and the fall will be painful.

It's a simple fact of life: if you want to do something incredible, something that makes you stand out above the rest, then you have to become comfortable being different—that means being misunderstood, criticized, even hated.
