My slightly different take on it: Would do again: * Rolled the dice on immigrating. * And on starting a business. * Wrote first million words publicly. * Set hedonic level reasonably low. * Did not optimize for near-term career/etc success.https://twitter.com/zebriez/status/1163610633864015872 …

Spend more time: * with people who share your values * with people whose outcomes you’d enjoy * on activities you enjoy versus those you’re told you should enjoy but don’t * on things which compound * sleeping * optimistically trying new things

Thanks, really valuable tweet. From your writings, you seemed ambitious from early on. What would tweaking it upwards have looked like? Cheers :)

@itsjaydesu is the main reason I’m in Tokyo. His pitch, which took 5 years to win me over and which is fundamentally right (given preferences/values), is that living in a big city (ideally a hub for your industry) is a serendipity engine which gets you compounding advantages. - 1 more reply
