Don’t fall in love with just the 💡idea, fall in love with the ⚡️energy, 💙passion, 🙌 inspiration and 🚀enthusiasm that brought you there! RT if you agree 👍🏼
Get out of your comfort zone every once in a while. Meet new people that know things you don't. Throw yourself into a new or challenging situation. Try something that you know is difficult. Grow.
Explaining anything NFT, Metaverse, Web 3.0, or even Crypto to general public still feels a bit like explaining value of social media, apps, cell phones, and even the internet itself early on. We are ridiculous early.
If you need a spark of energy today, imagine a camera crew is following you around to make a documentary about your life -- see what new inspiration occurs!
Imagine betting against any of these massive tech innovations 😂 -- The Internet, Smartphones, Netflix, App Stores, YouTube, AR/VR, Wearables, Crypto, The Metaverse 🚀
Negative thoughts and bad outcomes suck, and it's easy to get stuck on and believe there's no great path forward.
But if you use the daily practice of thinking 'What if everything goes better than I could have imagined!' the world around you begins to shape accordingly! 🧠
Instincts and gut feelings are often undervalued or ignored in business. Even children can tell you when something is off about someone (and are often right). 🚫 When you feel these red flags, run. Conversely when it feels good, go all in 🚀
I'm excited for the future with Web3 - what decentralized communities can do is incredible to think about. Everything can start as a community idea and stay community run with less centralized orgs and instead DAOs and decentralized orgs 🙏
A key aspect of GROWTH is being honest with yourself, figuring out your strengths and weaknesses, utilizing a student of life mindset (always learning and evolving) rather than the know-it-all mindset, and challenging your ideas by meeting people with differing views
At least once per day, I hear a great business idea (often web3). But then I tell people -- Excellent, you have a great idea... now you have to execute on it!
Most people fail at this stage, and can't turn a great idea into great execution -- which is what really matters
Keep building your network, you can never know too many awesome people. 👇
Introduce yourself to people you want to meet
Don't treat people like transactions
You never know how one connection can change the course of your life!

I'm on a networking spree -- looking to meet designers & artists, top gaming creatives, community builders, and quality NFT projects with strong utility and unique concepts, let's go 👇
The internal dialogue and story you repeat to yourself you begin to believe. Positive self talk goes a long way. Just as negative self talk can cripple you. 🧠
Being surrounded by great people that know about things you don’t is often an accelerator for great outcomes. What great people are you surrounding yourself with?
What happens when a pro runner gets on the treadmill next to you going 3x your speed? You get going a little faster.
Same concept as having people around you that are doing things you want to do. That energy is contagious in the best of ways.
Never horde knowledge. Teach everyone around you what you know, especially the really clever stuff. It’ll make you sharper and help to fine tune and expand your own thinking.

Modern technology as we know it exists today because a human somewhere thought of a better way to do what previously existed.
Make no mistake that we will continue to do this as a species.
Ai then takes things to a whole new level.
And it’s exciting to imagine what might…
There are going to be times in your life where everything seems stacked against you… it will require digging deep in your soul to push through but I promise it will be worth it
Don't ever be afraid to sound crazy. Innovation and genius often times literally requires thinking and action that is so far out of the box people will simply say you're crazy. Playing it safe never resulted in brilliance.
Just remember that when someone is rude or demeaning to you, it is not a reflection of you, it is almost always a reflection of them. And it's certainly not worth ruining your day to be upset about it or give it any attention.
We all need to do an inventory of what we are spending our time on.
Prioritize what actually matters.
If your calendar is packed with fluff, or you are spending half of your day getting distracted in other people's business, it's time to level up.
In a world that's seemingly being flooded by more and more data, analytics and AI... there's tremendous value in mastering a field.
Let others get lazy or rely only on the AI, while you go and double down by becoming a master of your field with razor sharp instincts.
There are 3+ billion gamers globally with 1+ million video games on various platforms...
With ~300+ million crypto users, but still only 500-600 web3/crypto games with active daily wallets -- would not surprise me if we saw a massive convergence of web3 in games in coming years

I love to see people crushing it, even in the exact same category as me or my companies.
I stopped viewing the world as a sea of competitors and started seeing synergies everywhere.
This mindset shift has opened up endless opportunities and incredible networking. And yes more…
Why 97% of people fail to build a strong personal network:
-If a call or meeting is not immediately booked, they give up
-They get offended someone sent them a Calendly link
-They immediately pitch an opportunity and fail to build rapport
-They complain to the person that made…
Integrity is one of the most important components of a personal brand.
Your reputation and the strength of your network will go hand in hand.
You need to know what you stand for, or others will be confused too.
More of us should have an Affinity to meeting awesome people, and finding ways to collaborate. Networking is important in virtually any business or career on the planet. Make it a personal goal to reach out to 5 new people this next week
Being well informed and educated on what’s really going on is a superpower that far too few possess. The world tries to trick you into staying in your lane, confusing you, not giving you education on the right things, and keeping you in your small bubble. Don’t fall for it.
Focus on your goals.
Don’t let anyone or anything distract you.
Don’t listen to critics. Just keep working.
Don’t be afraid to start over.
If you believe in it enough, the only failure is giving up.
In a realm where everyone's armed with fancy data analytics & elite AI, remember: REAL power is wielded by those with battle-hardened instinct & an incredible inner circle
IRL business events are dramatically underrated for networking. I’ve been to 100s…
But most people go to events and immediately mess up. They go into blind sales pitch mode, slapping everyone with their pitch. And it’s just a pitch fest for them. And the outcome is binary.…
If the minds in your vicinity don’t resonate inspiration and wisdom, then perhaps it’s not a circle you inhabit, but a prison of silent potential and muted brilliance.
It's essential to navigate towards a network where each connection is a beacon, not a shadow, in the path of…
Taking on more risk can yield higher reward, but also higher risk of downside. While taking on less risk tends to give you a more average reward and more average downside. Applies to many things in life. The choice is yours
Sound advice that transcends industries and professions: Patience. Zoom out. Learn from mistakes. Grow as a person. Buidl. Don't get greedy. Have a plan. Find a mentor. Have conviction. Don't be a d*ck.
Let’s have some fun - Going to buy and change my PFP this weekend for an NFT community that makes the best case or most noise on this post and followers 🤙🏼
Remember that reputation and energy transfer from the people you closely associate with, so choose wisely. It can be a massive accelerator or a huge hindrance.
