“Butt”-Hours

Work, guys, is all about “butt” hours. It’s like when you’re reading a higher math textbook and then doing your homework. No super-efficient productivity hacker can help you here. Tony Robbins won’t help you either. Time management isn’t necessary: you just sit and get to it. You don’t need magical 25-minute intervals (like the popular “working” life hack called the Pomodoro Technique). In reality, you don’t need extra notes or summaries. You don’t need any dumbed-down videos. You don’t need colorful markers to highlight an important formula in yellow because all the formulas are important. No one can master higher math using some clever trick. Everyone learns the same way. How? By doing the damn work. You need a textbook, a pen, paper, and time. Any extra gimmicks, gadgets, and tools will worsen the result. It might seem like they make the work faster, but no. They might make you do SOMETHING faster. But that something is NOT the work. Get it? They’ll take your time, sure. They’ll give you some result. Just not the result you needed when you sat down with the textbook. Yes, the problem from the textbook will be solved. But you won’t learn how to solve it faster. Building a new startup? It’s the same deal. Listen to your users. All the time. Every day. Then sit down and write a code. This, of course, brings to mind scenes from the movie “The Social Network,” where Zuckerberg rushes off to code a new feature about who’s dating or breaking up. So, let all your employees join in and do the same. Repeat endlessly. Many think startups are wildly complex. In some ways (like the risk of going insane), they are. But in another sense, they’re simple: you just do three things over and over for a long time. Sell. Code. Hire. Repeat the next day. You can’t build a startup by watching YouTube videos. Now, I hope you understand what I mean. You can only build a startup by delivering a working code. All you need is a laptop and maybe a transport pass if you write your code in the office. submitted by /u/FXgram_ [link] [comments]

Advice from Outsiders, Sellers of Algo Robots, and Other Scammers

Before we delve into the topic, let’s immediately debunk a common myth that has taken root in many people’s heads. It must be said that the popularization of this myth is facilitated by all sorts of schemers, would-be managers, “traders” who promise people tens of percent in annual returns, and sellers of algorithmic robots who calculate profitability not in years, but in months and even weeks. So, a financial advisor cannot outperform the market—no more than you can yourself. If you happen to find a manager or a fund that genuinely gives you some alpha and does so consistently year after year, just consider yourself very lucky. Now I’m not talking about everyday luck, but about the fact that you must understand: profitability above the market is most often explained by luck, and not by the skill of the manager. Yes, their advice or market perspective may be correct for several years in a row. And if you had deposited a large sum of money based on this advice, then that manager or advisor would become your hero. But don’t be deluded. submitted by /u/FXgram_ [link] [comments]

What Do Successful People Do?

People who are written about in biographies share two things in common. First, they are obsessed. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mahatma Gandhi, Richard Branson, Steve Jobs… They could behave like jerks and moral deviants. But I repeat – they were all obsessed. John Carmack was obsessed with graphics engines. The Wright brothers were obsessed with flying. Leonardo da Vinci was obsessed with the structure of things. That’s why they created, respectively, graphics engines, flying machines, and inventions. Yes, of course, they thought about what they were doing. I’m talking about meta-thinking. Carmack published his plans, the Wright brothers constantly published their thoughts on their experiments, and Leonardo is known for his incredible sketches. But they DIDN’T write books on how to publish plans, how to describe experiments, or what to sketch in a notebook. They did their damn work! And this is the second thing they all have in common. The same applies nowadays – anyone who aims to teach you investments should primarily be engaged in investing. Why do we need a Leonardo who teaches how to keep an invention diary? submitted by /u/FXgram_ [link] [comments]
