• If you're wrong, admit it. • If you're confused, ask questions. • If you're stuck, seek for help. • If you make mistake, learn from it. • If you learn something, teach others

Marcus Aurelius' meditations are among the most influential words ever written. Two millennia ago, the world's most powerful man spent his evenings alone, journalling his thoughts. He never even meant to publish them, but they're still so relevant: 1. “Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now take what's left and live it properly.” 2. “Today I escaped from anxiety. Or no, I discarded it, because it was within me, in my own perceptions - not outside.” 3. “Everything that happens is either endurable or not. If it's endurable, then endure it. Stop complaining.” 4. “You don't have to turn this into something. It doesn't have to upset you. Things can't shape our decisions by themselves.” 5. “If it isn't ceasing to live that you're afraid of but never beginning to live properly... then you'll be worthy of the world that made you.” 6. “Stop talking about what the good man is like, and just be one.” 7. “You can also commit injustice by doing nothing.” 8. “The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts.” 9. “Watch the courses of the stars as if you revolved with them. Keep constantly in mind how the elements alter into one another. Thoughts like this wash off the mud of life below.” 10. “At dawn, when you have trouble getting out of bed, tell yourself: "I have to go to work - as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I'm going to do what I was born for - the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?" - But it's nicer here... So you were born to feel "nice"? Instead of doing things and experiencing them? Don't you see the plants, the birds, the ants and spiders and bees going about their individual tasks, putting the world in order, as best they can? And you're not willing to do your job as a human being? Why aren't you running to do what your nature demands?”

There are real threats and people should take care, but "feeling threatened" by other people's statements is a unique & contagious disease of the extreme left wing. I say TOUGHEN UP. You have a mental health problem of FEELING THREATENED. You have a problem, not the world!

This is one of the best videos to ever exist for entrepreneurs, creators... I think about it often. In 2016, Pharrell Williams visited a NYU music production class to critique student songs. At the beginning you could see student "Maggie Rogers" drenched with the absolute terror of sharing this with him. Pharrell is there just trying to keep his excitement in. The guy couldn’t wait to tell her this song is the bee’s knees. After he listened to a song called “Alaska”, he explained why “I have zero, zero, zero notes for that:” 24 hours later, someone posted the clip to Reddit. It blew up and the rest is history. Grammy nominated, millions of followers etc. And Maggie responded to the Reddit thread (i'll share screenshot in the next tweet). This story I find so cool because it inspires other artists to share what they got. We all can all connect with the fear of showing our work. It ain't easy. And to have a unique POV like Maggie. Easy to copy, harder to have something unique. I’ve got a bunch of designs, creations that have never seen the light of day. This video inspires me to publish more. My point of sharing this video: Publish your art anonymously. Or publish your art proudly as yourself. Bonus points if it's one of a kind work. But publish your darn art. This is your new week's energy. This is your 2024 energy. Go get 'em. -- If you enjoyed this, go listen to some Maggie Rogers. And thank you to Pharrell for being so supportive to an up and comer. And go follow me for more stories like this @gregisenberg, so you get more of it in your feed I share stories about internet communities, free startup ideas and more.

@beaniemaxi Which protocols are you referring to and/or looking at?

Gratitude: It's not just about what we receive but how and from whom. Understanding the environmental and interpersonal nuances can profoundly amplify our happiness and well-being.

I’m the head of Google AI ($15.7M TC). You better believe we’re using this OpenAI news to make rapid advancements and go on the offensive. As soon as I’m back from PTO for Thanksgiving break (December 1, 2023) I will be coordinating an all-hands with my team (on February 5, 2024), where we will put some Q2 OKRs in place to discuss a plan to get to parity with GPT 4 by the year 2026. Look out, world!

I kept looking for living people who understood the dynamics of this conflict & found NONE as clear-minded as Villepin, former French PM & mostly chief diplomat. I thought no living politician had the clairvoyance of Gaulle & Peyrefitte. I was wrong.
