The truth is you can only do one thing well. It is almost impossible to go 0→1 on multiple pursuits at the same time.

Hosted 40 incredible people for dinner tonight. We brought together founders, artists, and creators — each one a misfit in their own way. I call them extraordinary misfits. People stayed for almost four hours
 just talking, connecting, sharing stories. By far my favorite part

I barely read my emails anymore. I use an AI tool called Cora, which reads and triages my emails, sending me an update on what I missed, twice a day. It summarizes all my newsletters and puts them in bullet points so I can easily skim. It's too good. Everyone I know is

I'm at the point where I speak to my phone/laptop more than I type. Emails, texts, LinkedIn posts and even long-form newsletter drafts. Speaking is so much more natural. It’s faster, and just feels like a better way to get your thoughts out.

The highest status people I know give the most nonchalant answers. The founders I know will usually answer with “I just work in tech”, and I once met a billionaire who introduced himself as “unemployed”.

If someone asks you “what do you do?” within seconds of meeting you — don’t be annoyed. Smile. You’ve just identified a transactional player. Instead, give them the lowest status answer. Then drop your highest IQ insights for the rest of the conversation. This breaks brains.

I've been using AI less for writing. I felt like I was overrelying on it and outsourcing too much of my creativity and critical thinking. But after using AI for two years, I've found that my natural writing style is starting to sound like ChatGPT. Sentence structure, grammar,.

"How do you start angel investing?". A question that most operators and event founders I know are always asking about. After investing in 20+ companies, I'm hosting a virtual session with @forwarddeploy, Scout at @a16z, on how to get started with angel investing and scouting on

Came across this beautiful quote on running while listening to James Dyson’s audiobook:. “Long distance running allowed me the freedom to roam the wilds of Norfolk while depending on nobody but myself. Running also taught me to overcome to pain barrier. When everyone else feels.

We’re planning our most ambitious project to date. It’s like nothing we’ve ever tried. Dropping in a few months
 stay tuned. And maybe we’ll drop a few hints 👀.
