Too many people don’t try because they’re afraid of failing. It’s more comfortable to live telling yourself: “If I’d really tried, I would’ve made it.” That lie is comforting. It leaves your ego intact. But it doesn’t move you forward. It only makes it bigger.
The 21st-century trap: • They sell you on the idea that “living experiences” means spending 3 salaries on a trip to Bali. • But no one tells you that the best experience is not having to ask for time off to live your life. The real luxury is having control over your time. Period.
The more free time I have, the more things I have to do. The amount of work is unlimited. More companies to analyze, more apps to build, more things to learn... Sometimes, it’s hard not to feel overwhelmed by so many things. It’s important to learn how to prioritize and tackle tasks one at a time without losing focus.
The results you're looking for are in what you avoid. There's always something you don't want to do, something you know you should be doing, or a decision you're avoiding. That's exactly where what you want is.
🧙 Consistency is black magic: People who are years ahead of you give up, but as long as you keep going, your relative edge keeps growing. → Every day, a % of people quit (the gym, startups, whatever) → Every year, you become the veteran who scares the newbies
⏳ One more year. One less year. 2025 has been an interesting year. I’ve learned a lot along the way, but maybe the most important thing is this: I’ve figured out where I want to be in 10 years. That’s not trivial. Neither knowing it nor accepting it.
The first €1,000 you make online feels better than the first €20,000 from an office job. There are very few things I understand with absolute certainty, but I hold on to one small, powerful truth: action cures ignorance.
People massively underestimate the power of repetition. And consistency. Every action you take doesn’t have a fixed outcome. It has a probability distribution. By sheer chance, the same action can go well or badly depending on a thousand factors you don’t control.
In Switzerland, I work like a beast: day, evening and night, with no breaks, not even on weekends. I stick to a strict diet, train hard and sleep almost perfectly. Torture? Not at all. I love the grind, but I also enjoy relaxing and spending time with my girlfriend, friends and family. That’s why I go back to Spain once a month. The best of both worlds
The tyranny of the second brain. Everyone wants one. Notion. Obsidian. Roam. The perfect system for capturing every idea. The promise is seductive: you’ll never forget anything. Everything connected. Exponential knowledge. But nobody tells you the cost.
