"Wisdom is the echo of experience." II. "Early feedback is usually better than late criticism. III. "A simple recipe for finding opportunities:
It's hard for a warm and pleasant person who is asking a lot of questions and engaging in their industry daily to not come across interesting opportunities." 2 Quotes From OthersI. Entrepreneur and investor Paul Graham on fooling yourself: "If you're trying to choose between two theories and one gives you an excuse for being lazy, the other one is probably right." Source: What You'll Wish You'd Known II. Writer and scholar C.S. Lewis on what why small choices matter: "Good and evil both increase at compound interest. That is why the little decisions you and I make every day are of such infinite importance. The smallest good act today is the capture of a strategic point from which, a few months later, you may be able to go on to victories you never dreamed of. An apparently trivial indulgence in lust or anger today is the loss of a ridge or railway line or bridgehead from which the enemy may launch an attack otherwise impossible."
